...What?
*types*
You've got a head in your fridge?
That is absolutely fantastic! Where did you get one? I've been looking for ages without finding a morgue that'll supply me with a human head without considerable amounts of paperwork.

*types, feeling smug*I have an acquaintance at Bart's. She supplies me with all the corpses and body parts I need. Usually.

*types, also feeling smug*
You mean Molly Hooper? My future temporary flatmate who worships the ground I walk upon?

*types*That would be her. The admiration for me is clear as well. Makes it a bit too easy sometimes.

She's a very nice girl; don't misuse her. That makes you no better than Jim.

*types*Frankly, I am insulted you use the term "misuse". I, unlike Moriarty, am honest with her. I, unlike Moriarty, do not maintain an acquaintance with her simply for the purpose of acquisition or knowing someone else. While it is true that her job at Bart's is useful to me, she's much more enjoyable to work with than some of the people in the forensics department of Scotland Yard. Plus she's a suitable substitute for John in that she has medical knowledge and is willing to listen to me. *enter*

I didn't say you do misuse her, I just want to make sure that you don't.

*types*Didn't say you did.
I need nicotine right now. More than you can know.

Alcohol ought to help. Not that I'm suggesting you get drunk, but maybe a drink or two will help.

*types*Attempt to curb withdrawal from a stimulant by submitting myself to a depressant. Interesting idea. I haven't had alcohol in quantity since university and that was on accident. I have since learned that in large regular amounts, it shrinks the brain in an effect similar to Alzheimer's.
Perhaps I shall sip champagne at your opera performance tonight as it is complimentary. *enters*This shall be interesting.

*types*Day three:
Sleep deprivation symptoms: noticeable fatigue Nicotine withdrawal symptoms: significant irritability, slight tingling in the fingers.
Again, I've gone this long without sleep while on cases, but I've never gone this long without stimulants since I discovered their benefits. Shouted at Mrs. Hudson for bringing the wrong bread. It was wheat. I wanted rye. Stupid woman. Stupid bread. Stupid empty flat.
Fortunately I have enormous self-restraint. GAAAH!

Types:Day four:
Sleep deprivation: Significant tiredness, slight disorientation Nicotine withdrawal: hands tingling, headaches, nausea, shaking, sweating, severe irritability, extreme cravings
My will has never been so tested. Neighbors playing loud irritating syncopated music. Only thing stopping me from going after them was the fact that I couldn't find John's gun.
Not even smashing mangoes that have been in liquid nitrogen has been able to cheer me up. I'm bored, there's no one about, and the effects of chemicals on which I am largely dependent being forcibly and suddenly removed are highly unpleasant. *rubs face, yanks hair, looks around room and all the mango bits that have gone absolutely everywhere and have since thawed out, turning to mush*AAAAH! *angrily to the skull which has a bit of mango in the left ocular cavity*What do you find so interesting?

*the door moves slightly as a vase hits it and explodes*
*two minute pause before the door opens. Sherlock is in his dressing gown and pyjamas, hair insane, and eyes slightly unfocussed and baggy. He slumps against the door frame.*
Oh. It's you. What do you want?
