MANTA general: Sweet Dreams Are Made of These

[ Do these tapir plushes work as advertised or are they a marketing ploy? Regardless, Sherlock would rather waste the money than lose the chance that it does work. He has been amassing a small collection of good dream charms and enchantments in hopes of finally being able to sleep. He doesn't need good dreams. He will settle on less terrifying nightmares or no dreams at all. Sherlock can't keep this up much longer. Something will break. Falling asleep in the flower field was a small bandage on a much greater wound.

Sherlock frowns and crosses his arms. This aggressive salesperson is really getting on his nerves. ]

No, I do not want the wrap or the keychain. I am satisfied with the plush alone.

Zzzz (Eltrut)

[ Sherlock has not been seen outside of his apartment for days, and he has not responded to messages. However, his shellphone still accepts messages, so he hasn't gone home. He didn't tell anyone he was going undercover and silent for a case or some other similar reason. Is he ill? Has he been kidnapped?

No, Sherlock Holmes is asleep. He finally gathered enough dream related charms to combat his night terrors (and trauma), and his body and mind has fully succumbed to his need for rest. He wakes only to take care of the minimum of bodily needs before he balls himself up in bed and slumbers once more.

Someone should probably check up on him and at least make sure he eats a proper meal. ]

MANTA general: Painted Skull-O-Lanterns

[ This is a strange request, but Sherlock finds himself with a number of fake skulls and paints. He sits outside under the shade of a tree with brush in hand as he lays down a stroke of green. ]

I do not know why I've been tasked to help. I am not an artist.

[ For someone who can sketch well, his attempts at making a skull design is rather lacking. ]

MANTA general: Schrödinger's Gondola

[ Having heard of the crazy debate and realizing his own mental image of a gondola differed from others, Sherlock wanted to see what this was about. He did not expect the large box. It is strangely cozy inside, so Sherlock is in no hurry to leave. He creates a lantern of light, folds his legs under him, and goes through his casebook. He'll look up when someone enters; the curious mage probably forgot Sherlock was inside. ]

Hm? Ah, hullo.

[ Sherlock is too stray black cat coded, and he fits thus sits. ]

MANTA Paladin Bounty: Disguise and Deliverance (Elah)

[ "Mary" the maid continues to investigate the mansion, looking for research documents or correspondence which could explain the crystal sickness and what their plans are for the future. Sherlock is still not doing a very good job at cleaning despite always making some excuse to dust the study and office. At the moment, he's looking behind paintings for safes and under rugs for loose floorboards which could hide important documents. ]

Do let me know if there is anyone not of our group approaching.
