[The Detective was multi-tasking, on a laptop there were about two dozen tabs with lurid descriptions of past crimes, his notebook was out and already covered with writing. He had known Szayel was in the room, but waited until he was addressed to actually look up from whatever he was doing.

He cocks a brow at the bodyguards, before giving the man a cool, inquisitive gaze]

Yes - and I am not that difficult of a man to find, least right now I have no reason to make myself scarce.

[He made note of that 'finally', and the implication]

[perfeccion]

Well. It's a funny story, actually... or, it would be funny, had it not wasted so much of my time... [Szayel takes a seat and shoos the bodyguards away. They go to stand at the entrance of the room] I went looking for you using your spiritual signature, you see, and I found the Archer of Shinjuku instead.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He swivels the chair around to actually look at him, legs crossed - expecting the funny story, before.

That.

Instead of one, both brows shot up in complete disbelief]

Pardon?

[The Detective utters, unsure if he heard it correctly]

[perfeccion]

Yes. I had sniffed out what I was certain was your soul and found James Moriarty. Now then, the spiritual senses of an Espada are finely honed -- we're like soul bloodhounds, Mr. Holmes. We don't make mistakes like that. Even now, it's only by virtue of knowing who you aren't that I found you. [Szayel steeples his fingers. Despite everything, he looks more curious than anything] Why... might that be?

[improbablenotimpossible]

I suppose the Professor gave you his hypothesis on the subject. Let me think - it is possibly due to our shared origins, and how our nature as Detective and Nemesis that one is not far from the other.

[He steeples his own fingers together, green eyes flicking, his mind sparking over possibilities]

Or perhaps - a fragment from the time...

[Sherlock trails off, uncertain as to let this particular scientist known about the Shinjuku incident]

[perfeccion]

He did indeed. I feel as though that is... possible, though unlikely. After all, Kurotsuchi and myself are from the same "story", and were indeed nemeses for a time, and our souls couldn't be more different. [He tilts his head] ... Care to elaborate?

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He considers, then remember they had been watching the Witch's Game, or least some of them]

How much of the Witch's Game had you managed to catch on the telly?

[perfeccion]

[the telly. How cute.]

What I was not able to watch myself I had Yoshi record and transcribe. That is, I saw everything that was available to us.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[He's quintessentially British, what does one expect?]

Then you probably heard Moriarty's bragging of his one victory over me, a brief moment where our Spirit Origins overlapped. I did take some key information from him during that period.

Perhaps our similarities came from that period of being merged.

[perfeccion]

Hmmm... yes, if your essences were temporarily combined, some mixing would be expected. Especially if you were not in a position to protect your "self".

[improbablenotimpossible]

He did manage to catch me completely unawares, a grave error on my part I will admit, so I did not have the time to put up any safeguards on myself.
