[k] [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty That's right. All of this was my doing! [k] [charaFace C 4] @Moriarty Hm? I can see from your withering glare that you think I'm up to something. [k] [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty Well, you're both right and wrong. I was, in fact, up to something, but no longer now that I've succeeded. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty ...[sr]...There. [k] @Moriarty If I play up the fog-induced static and the comms delay, I should be able to buy us a little more time. [k] @Moriarty Indeed, the entire purpose of this little excursion was to enable us to spend this precious bit of time together. Nothing more. [k] @Moriarty That goes for the Moriarty imposter,[sr]and the mock Singularity I generated in London... [k] @Moriarty All of it was for this moment. [k] ?1:What are you talking about? ?! @Moriarty I want to tell you more about myself and my personal philosophy, and I didn't want to give Holmes a chance to interfere. [k] [charaFace C 4] @Moriarty Believe me, I'd like to think I'm just, well, overthinking it, but remember, I am Holmes's sworn rival. [k] @Moriarty I need to make the greatest, arguably foolhardy pains to ensure he has no chance of seeing or hearing what I do. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty Hmm... We don't have much time until our comms are back online. I'd better speak while I can. [k] @Moriarty ...I understand why I was summoned, and why I'm here now. The bond you and I formed in Shinjuku explains that. [k] @Moriarty In a sense, it was fortune and coincidence that brought us together. [k] @Moriarty But then there's Holmes.[sr]Tell me, why is HE at Chaldea? [k] ?1:Well[line 2] ?! [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty Yes, I know that too, of course. [k] @Moriarty I'm well aware of how you and he met,[sr]and what happened between you two.

[k] @Moriarty Of course, all of your comms systems were cut off at the time, so there's no record of your conversation whatsoever. [k] @Moriarty But, be that as it may, the fact remains that he was there. You can attest to that yourself. [k] @Moriarty What did he say to you again?[sr]Something along these lines? [k] [messageOff] [wt 1.0] @Moriarty “I was originally summoned in London to aid[sr]with the repair of the Fourth Singularity.” [k] @Moriarty "But then, at Sir Babbage's behest, I expanded the scope of my investigation beyond the Fourth Singularity alone to the entire Incineration of Humanity incident." [k] @Moriarty “So I decided to come to the Sixth Singularity before you, to begin searching for clues as soon as possible.” [k] @Moriarty If that's true, it would mean he[sr]Rayshifted there all on his own. [k] @Moriarty Tell me, do you think such a thing is even possible? [k] ?1:I... ?! @Moriarty I do not. Not for a second. [k] @Moriarty That said, we all know his propensity for surprising us[line 2]or rather, the true culprit[line 2]with methods that would never have occurred to anyone else. [k] @Moriarty Perhaps he took clever advantage of the Atlas Institute's unique properties, which somehow enabled their headquarters to survive the Incineration of Humanity unscathed. [k] @Moriarty Or perhaps it was something as simple as a mage summoning him to that time. [k] @Moriarty But regardless of what the explanation may be, the fact remains that we have no way of verifying it for ourselves. [k] [messageOff] [fadeout white 1.0] [wait fade] [effectStop bit_sepia01_depth] [charaFadeout M 0.1] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [charaTalk on] [charaScale B 1.0] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] [wt 1.0] [fadein white 1.0] [wait fade] @Moriarty So listen closely, Master, for this is very important. [k] @Moriarty I may be an evil man...but that does not mean all who oppose me must therefore be good. [k] @Moriarty If push comes to shove, there is nothing Holmes would not do to protect Chaldea[line 2]or rather, humanity. [k] [charaFace C 4] @Moriarty That includes relying on methods so cold-blooded that neither Da Vinci, Goredolf, or even I could fathom using them. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty That said, it is entirely possible that my concerns are unwarranted, and I am worried over nothing. [k] @Moriarty But remember, if you will,[sr]one of his more well-known sayings: [k] @Moriarty Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains,[sr]no matter how improbable, must be the truth. [k] @Moriarty And the concerns I've laid out here[sr]are by no means impossible. [k] @Moriarty Which is why I need to prepare countermeasures. [k] @Moriarty So my evil scheme this time is to act merely mischievous in public, pretend to be doing evil deeds for your sake in secret... [k] [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty ...and ultimately, to prepare for Holmes “going rogue” in a way that even he'll never see coming! [k] @Moriarty Think of it as a safety mechanism of sorts[line 2] one designed to ensure a good man doesn't end up deciding to sacrifice an important few for the sake of the so-called greater good. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty So, can I count on your assistance in this matter, Master? [k] ?1:I'm not really sure what to say... [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty True, I can't blame you for having doubts.[sr]But I do hope you can get past them. [k] ?2:What exactly would I have to do...? [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty Nothing. Just continue to be yourself.[sr]In fact, anything else would be detrimental. [k] ?! [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty Having said all of that... [k] @Moriarty I'm going to cast a little charm on you,[sr]to make you forget everything I just told you. [k] ?1:Huh? But why? ?! [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty A fair question. Indeed, you may well be wondering what the point of all this was if I'm just going to have you forget. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty All I can say is that my intuition and experience are speaking to me, and I must listen. Call it a hunch. [k] @Moriarty And that hunch tells me that if I go up against Holmes with you remembering this discussion... [k] [charaFace C 4] @Moriarty ...he'll most likely see right through me. [k] @Moriarty You see, the real problem is that, at this point, I simply have no idea how this scenario will play out. [k] @Moriarty As embarrassing as it is to admit, I have essentially no evidence, no facts, no solid information whatsoever. [k] @Moriarty And as any professor of mathematics will tell you, it's impossible to solve an equation in which every variable is unknown. [k] @Moriarty So the only option I see right now is to take the liberty of erasing[line 2]or rather, sealing this memory away. [k] ?1:But, if you're just gonna have me forget[line 2] ?! [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty Why did I tell you all this in the first place?[sr]For a very good reason. [k] @Moriarty Once it has been sealed away, this memory will lie dormant in the back of your mind, waiting patiently for its time. [k] [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty And if that time should indeed arrive, I hope it will lead you to trust me over Holmes. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Moriarty Truth be told, I'm hoping this is all just a big joke. [k] @Moriarty Really, the fact that he risked his life to save yours would seem to be a fatal contradiction in this hypothesis. [k] [charaFace C 1] @Moriarty So this is all most likely[sr]needless worrying on my part. [k] @Moriarty Still one never knows what life[sr]has in store to trip you up... [k] @Moriarty ...so I figured it couldn't hurt to have a backup plan ready to go, just in case.
