[There's a pause, as if he's trying to decide if he really wants to know what he's about to ask.]

...were you there to see them in person?

['....if so, what did they look like?']

[improbablenotimpossible]

[His eyes flickered, glancing away]

I caught him early... they were still developing, like fetuses... though now I wondered if he had been more vigilant in covering his tracks.

[hatesdeerstalkers]

Or if anyone in the family is still trying to this day.

[It would be fruitless, anyway - as long as they existed.]

...Still, that isn't the whole reason as to why it took me so long to get this information.

I was...attempting to learn if it would be possible to transfer back the magic I stole from you.

[improbablenotimpossible]

Eh...? Pardon?

[He blinks owlishly at that]

[hatesdeerstalkers]

W-Well, I mean....!

[He flusters, just a little.]

It isn't as if I need all of this magic, after all! And besides, you know more of the workings of the mage world than I do!

[improbablenotimpossible]

I mean, yes out of necessity - I never went in with the idea of using it myself!

[He puts a hand over his face]

Just... this is a lot to take in.

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[He's still flustered himself, but...at that, he gives a sigh.]

...It's....certainly been quite a year, hasn't it?

[So much of their lives have changed....after years of it seeming the same.

Everything is different now, and that itself is almost terrifying.]

...Do you - regret it?

[This year. Their discoveries. Everything.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He nods slightly at 'it being a year']

So much... it's been so much... but...

[Sherlock trails off, softly, before standing, closing the distance]

I don't regret finding the truth... about us. Or breaking down the walls we had.

[hatesdeerstalkers]

[That -

Actually makes him smile, gratefully, before nodding himself.]

...I feel the same way. I - suppose I just needed a bit of assurance that it was still the case...how embarrassing for an old man like myself.

[After everything he keeps finding...but, well-]

Hopefully, this should be the last...major revelation about our origins. Barring anything else.

...I also believe it might be a good idea to stay away from the Vernets whenever possible.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He couldn't help but smile in kind upon seeing that before returning to his seat]

I cannot imagine what else would come up for our origins... and I am sure now that I said that something will come out to prove me wrong.
