Character: Molly Hooper
Mun: Risa
Plot specific: Nope!

[There was no way that Molly was going to out herself on this so she'll pretend to be anonymous right now]

So recently, I've been having a problem.

Can anyone tell me what's the best way to get someone to notice you?

[If only]

To notice you? That would be certainly best but I think that might just annoy him even more! Although, it would be a good option if he rejects me.

[catblog]

We're...acquaintances.

[It's kind of hard to call Sherlock a friend at this point...]

[catblog]

[Does Molly have the courage to broadcast who it might be? Well, he'll find out sooner or later and this might be the best way to do it so...]

A person by the name of Sherlock Holmes.

[bonafide_divinity]

It's Holmes.

Why the Hell would you want him to notice you?

[catblog]

I see.

Not exactly my type of thing but I would much rather look at the reasons behind their death such as if it was a natural causes or if there was something more sinister behind it. Decomposition are something that I'm use to but...not the way you described it.

[It's a looonngggg story]

He might seem like an interesting choice but he's a rather intelligent and brilliant. Not only that, he is able to quickly answer some things in certain situations that most don't.

What's not to like about him?

[bonafide_divinity]

Oh yes. Yes, he is very intelligent and very observant, which is precisely why you don't want him to notice you. Once he notices you, it's only a matter of time before he knows everything about you with his deductive reasoning or whatever the Hell he's calling it.

Trust me. You're better off with things as they are.

[thewomen]

I think its a brilliant but if you are not that keen

trying sending them a message, ask whoever it is out.

[3houseswatson]

That might be for the best, honestly. I imagine it's awkward to have to reject a friend who's started to want to be more than that - or for it to be the other way around.

Honestly, even if you get rejected, at least you tried. Better that than always regretting missed opportunities and wondering 'what if?', right?

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Only if you do it in an obvious way. You need to make it look like an accident, sort of like in a muggle movie.

[neverbloomed]

Exciting is good. And so is wild. If you were to dye your hair it definitely would make people turn their eyes on you.

[strongestoftheturks]

Probably.

[He stares at the entry, frowning. After his own string of unsuccessful crushes, he can somewhat relate to this anonymous poster. It seemed a bit, well, mean to just end their conversation that way. A few more seconds tick by, before he finally scribbles something else down.]

Sorry.

[There. That made it a bit better, didn't it? No not really. ]

[psychiclilies]

Jeez, what crawled into his underwear and died if he'd be annoyed by you hitting him? It's not like you're punching his lights out, it's more of a 'hey, I'm over here, dummy'.

[3potionproblem]

Well, the reason for the death can mean either the motive of the killer or natural forces at play that cause the life to be extinguished. It’s a fascinating realm of study. Bit preoccupied with my muggle studies at present but I fully intend to return to my studies in death when I’m away from a place that considered my experiments in that field a reason to contact Mummy.

[di_intraining]

It probably is. We're at that age after all. Falling in and out of love seems to be very much a teen thing. Only problem is that they don't tell you that rainbows, sunshine and happy ever afters are really uncommon.

[catblog]

So...are you telling me to get over him?

And I think he knows everything about me, just not that I like him.

[Take that what you will]

[catblog]

There's nothing to apologize about!

I might have to face the fact that he might not like me back. [As much as she wants to] I'll have to be prepared if that happens!

[catblog]

Maybe a light tap would better instead of hitting him...

[Self-esteem issues go!]

[catblog]

On second thought, maybe that might be a little bit too wild for me.

Perhaps changing a hair style or changing what I wear might be better.

[catblog]

And you keep holding on thinking that some day it will.

But no matter, if he doesn't like me that, then that might be fine with me. As long as he still wants to talk to me, I think I'll be okay.

[catblog]

That might be a better way but I get the feeling he might get the wrong impression.

He's...rather oblivious sometimes.

[catblog]

Yes, that is better than nothing.

And if he is still willing to talk to me after what has happened, I think that's what matters right?

[catblog]

That is a bit cliched but it might work if there's no other option.

And given how he doesn't notice the hints, I might as well. [Maybe]

[catblog]

It sounds like you might be interested in learning the Dark Arts.

[3potionproblem]

What it sounds like and what it is are not the same thing. But it is exactly why Mummy gets an owl in the morning with her tea and I end up getting an impromptu visit from Mycroft. I do want to learn the Dark Arts but only to understand how they work, their signs, anything that will help me determine death via their usage. It’s sad that I may never be at the bad end of a crucio curse. Experiencing something like that is the best means of information one can hope to get—far better than simple first hand accounts.
