Cynical Start (Open)

[Magnus Martinsson]

(OCC: March 4th. Morning. Open to all heroes who wanna meet magnus but also this is a thread for any new or undeveloped characters you wanna use!)

Magnus actually was beyond annoyed with what happened here. He was near a house but he practically appeared there and he had no idea why. One minute he was arguing with Wallander about how a certain serial killer could've killed a victim and BOOM now he was here! How in the hell did that happen?! Why did it happen?! Why Magnus of all people?! He looked up to the sky with a annoyed glare, as if this was a prank made by God before walking to the nearest house. It was huge and it seemed to have plenty of people talking, such as adults laughing or animals running about and Magnus would've liked this if he wasn't in a confused state or situation. The detective crossed his arms, thinking if asking about how he arrived to new york by transport would sound crazy, he shrugged coming to the conclusion that it was but he had no choice. So, he knocked on the door, loud enough in case the people were talking to much and continued to knock until someone answered him.

[Detective Mike Stone]

The door suddenly swung open as Gene stood there floating in midair before realizing how odd that would look. He smiled sheepishly as he floated to the ground.

"Hi. I'm Gene. Have you just randomly been pulled from your home to end up here? Do you have no idea where you are?" asked Gene.

He wanted to know if this was a new recruit or a spy for the other armies.

Wayne walked out seeing Gene and Magnus. He grinned.

"Welcome. I'm Wayne. Have you come to join us?" asked Wayne.

XXXX

Linksano meanwhile walked out holding the Millennium Ring. Linkara had finally got it working. So he was going to give it to Wayne as soon as he could. He smiled hoping this worked. He saw Wayne talking to the group.

"Wayne I need to see you here for a moment. Excuse us." Said Linksano.

He dragged Wayne off to the side. He hoped Linkara, or Holmes showed up soon to help him with this. Just in case this backfired somehow.

"Wayne. This may help you with your problem." said Linksano.

XXXX

Wayne looked at in surprise but followed Linksano into the living room.

"The Millennium Ring?" said Wayne.

He placed it on around his neck as a flash of gold light. It died down and he looked around in confusion. The ring had merged him and Wayne into one being. He had the memories of the old Stone and Wayne. Stone's detective skills, Wayne's scientific skills, and both of their feelings for Holmes. It was if he was a new person. He smiled at him.

"You did it. I'm back." said Stone.

He grinned as he hugged Linksano unaware as he heard footsteps coming into the room.

XXXX

Kim walked out next smiling as she saw Magnus and Gene. While most of the kids had gone to Roses house she and a few of the teens had stayed. And Gene well was a genie and had the power to protect himself. And his lamp belong to Queen Grimhilde so they weren't likely to take Gene away without her permission anyway. She walked up to the pair and smiled.

"Hello. I'm Kim. Welcome." said Kim.

[Magnus Martinsson]

Magnus first had to address Gene, due to the fact he freaking FLEW over to see him. Magnus's eyes looked like they were going to pop out of his skull. Unlike Hal or some other members who expressed their shock politely, Magnus was physically showing with his eyes and facial expresions that he had no idea where he was, who these people were and why was he here. He spoke to Gene first, sarcasm showing through his tone and some annoyance dripped in there "Hi gene... You're a duck. A duck that floats. I must of drank too much. Just to answer your questions since you are asking pretty good ones, no I don't know where I am or why I'm here. And who you are!" He then was about to turn to wayne and express joy of him being the only sane person only for him to disappear away with another human man with spiral goggles somewhere else "Wait! Can't you at least tell---Oh never mind!" Magnus stated as Wayne left, his annoyance starting to show. Magnus was worried his answers would take FOREVER to find out. And he didn't want that. At all

Then Kim showed up. He smiled slightly, relieved she was around despite the fact she looked old enough to be in High school still, but she was a human and Magnus forgot Gene for a moment to just address her "Oh god. Thank you. A human person instead of a duck. Please tell me you see him too. I think I've gone crazy" He breathed heavilly "No offense to Gene the Duckie but I really want to know something Miss Kim. Where am I? Why am I here? How did I get here and am I freaking crazy!?"

Elsewhere Linkara and Holmes were going down to check the results of the ring. Holmes was beyond excited, feeling that this was the chance to have Stone or Wayne with him forever and Linkara said it would combine both men and it made Holmes super happy that he didn't have to choose. As they went downstairs, they were in Holmes' room beforehand, Linkara and holmes still spoke

"I warn you Holmes. It might not work" Linkara said
"Enough Linkara. I want to see! It is best!" Holmes argued
"Alright. Don't say I didn't warn you" Linkara retorted

Then all of a sudden they saw Linksano with Stone hugging, well a completely new stone, one that looked like both stone and wayne. While Holmes' heart raced, due to feeling the new man was REALLY good-looking, the detective's mouth opened with shock and some sort of silent joy. Linkara, on the other hand, was estatic "Oh my god! It worked! It actually worked!" Linkara squeeled a bit, due to his excitement before breathing "Hey stone. You feel ok?" Holmes was still speechless, staring at Stone as if hynotized by him.

[Dr. Linksano/Wayne Schlumper]

Front Porch:

Gene paused as he smiled sheepishly.

"Sorry. I forget some people aren't used to the flying thing. I'm a genie actually. That's why I can fly. And I'm real. As real as the two of you." said Gene.

XXXX

Kim smiled at him.

"Of course I see him. Like he said he's a genie. Although that's pretty normal compared to what others here can do. You see there's a war going on here and we've been pulled here from different worlds and time periods. The others can explain it better than me. Come in. You're safe here. If you don't wish to fight then you don't have to. Some stay here as medics or help others learn how to fight. Or build inventions and weapons for us to use. But this war is supposed to be a secret. If this got out it would create panic and chaos." said Kim.

Kitchen:

Linksano smiled as Linkara and Holmes showed up seeing the transformation.

"Yes. It worked. And I made sure before I gave it to him. No traces of Zorc, or Marik Ishtar, or anyone else in that ring." said Linksano.

XXXX

Stone smiled admiring his merger. He was complete and yet he had memories of both Stone and Wayne. He frowned realizing everything was blurry as he took the glasses off. He guessed he didn't inherit Wayne's vision so he didn't need these anymore. He set the glasses down on the counter as he smiled seeing Holmes and Linkara arrive. He rushed over shoving Holmes into a wall as he kissed him. He pulled back with a grin.

"I missed you. I mean I was here and I wasn't. It's still a bit confusing. But I'm so glad Wayne didn't disappear. I'm not Wayne or Stone. I'm both. I'm not going to let anyone or anything mess with my head again. I'm just glad you're here." said Stone.

He wrapped his arms around him as he gave him another kiss.

XXXX

Front Porch:

LInksano grinned as he motioned for Linkara to follow him as he slipped out leaving the couple to reunite. He paused seeing Kim and Gene talking with a new arrival.

"A new arrival. Welcome. I an Linksano." said Linksano.

[Magnus Martinsson]

Front Porch

Magnus turned to Gene as he continued to talk and Magnus' eyebrow raised at him before turning back to Kim, a relieved look on his face coming up "Oh thank the lord, I'm not freaking insane. Good. I'm glad. Great now can someone explain WHY gene the duckie is here?" However that question was gone out of his mind the minute Kim mentioned he was in a secret war. Although he was fine with keeping quiet about such a thing, Magnus had a hard time believing Gene the duck let alone a secret war around whereever the hell he was. Magnus went inside, confusion and slight disbelief on his face as he entered. The house looked similar to Wallander's house only slightly less depressing and it seemed smaller due to the fact there seemed to be a lot of items around. Magnus would smirk but he was too confused to bother. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Listen Kim, I hate to be the slow-minded person but there are three things wrong with this instant information. One, how the hell is there a war? Two, how the hell did someone pull people like you and me out? And third and most importantly? Where am I now and how can I get back to sweden? I'm a police detective and I have a important murder to get back to! I also need to get back home simply because of the fact I have a life!"

He suddenly turned quickly when not one but two men appeared. Although they looked similar, they also looked very different. The man with the goggles had returned but with a accomplice of a brown jacket with a furby hat and a grey shirt within a plaid one. They looked like twin brothers but Magnus paid no comment as Linksano, the goggled man, introduced himself as well as linkara, the brown jacket wearing man, say hello. Magnus then realized he didn't bother shaking hands but he was too busy with introductions to care about that either. Wallander would probably buy something like this but not him. "Nice to meet you Linksano and Linkara. Oh by the way, my name's magnus martinsson and I'm glad to have met people as nice as you guys. Alright, now with my name out of the way, Kim here claims there's a war here, and not that I don't believe her but is she right?"

Holmes was still staring when the merged stone and wayne shoved him to a wall and kissed him passionately. Apparently Sherlock prayed hard enough to deserve such heavenly gifts. Stone and Wayne were now combined and as the person kissed him passionately, Sherlock kissed right back, making sure the person knew how much he waited for this moment. Sherlock allowed Stone to speak and he breathed and looked the man up and down before softly responding "You're so lovely. You always were but now... you're hynotising stone" He put his hand over the younger man's cheek and responded with a soft grin "I missed you a lot more. Believe me. Now that you are both of the men I love, what do you prefer me to call you? I will love it regardless, just like I love you regardless" Sherlock then passionately kissed him again after saying that. This felt so much better. So final and complete. Sherlock felt contentment he hadn't felt in years

Kitchen/Front Porch

Linkara nodded to Linksano "Great! Amazing! This worked out perfectly!" Linkara then turned to see Stone and sherlock reunite quickly and saw Linksano move his head over for him to follow to the front porch to let the two men reunite. Linkara quickly nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed to be watching, and followed his scientist friend over to meet Kim, Gene and Magnus. Seeing Magnus confused he quickly spoke to introduce himself "Welcome to the war fella I'm Linkara" He then smiled as magnus responded and said his name was magnus. Linkara then smirked as Magnus responded that kim told him there was a war and asked if she was right. At the question he nodded sadly "I wish it wasn't but it's true magnus. This war is very real. As crazy as it sounds, whatever Kim told you is completely true. We got plenty of problems but we're always glad for people to come to us"

[Kim Possible]

Stone grinned at Holmes blushing at the compliment. He just wasn't used to having someone loving him like this. But he liked it.

"I've never been described like that before. Fascinating." said Stone.

He smiled tears going down his cheeks as Holmes touched his face.

"I was afraid I wouldn't come back. Or what if something went wrong? But I'm back and you're here." said Stone.

He smiled as he asked him what to call him.

"Well most people call me by my last name Stone. But I'm now a mix of Wayne and Stone. It feels weird to be called either now like I'm betraying the other somehow. Perhaps you can call me by first name Mike. Unless you have a nickname you prefer to call me." said Stone.

Then Sherlock kissed him and his thoughts vanished at the moment as he wrapped his arms around him. He enjoyed this and didn't want anything to interrupt the moment. He paused and pulled back with a grin.

"Perhaps we should take this somewhere else. I see our audience has left. We could go out to the back porch or upstairs and chat without anyone interrupting us." said Stone.

[Magnus Martinsson]

Front Porch

"So it really is true, this war thing? I'm sorry if it doesn't fly with me but I have a life of my own like I said that I need to get back to. Look kim" Magnus turned to kim "Sorry for doubting you before but this war thing is hard to adjust to if you mind me saying so" Magnus was nervous. Despite the confirmation from linkara, if this time machine really existed the only way to go home was to time travel again with a different machine or find the orginal person who did it. And magnus was not a big fan of those ideas because it was just plain crazy. Magnus then looked at all of tem again and then sighed "Can someone still explain to me how the hell this war happened and why so I can stop feeling like I don't have answers" This time he sounded a bit more patient than he was previously. He tended to act more patient with people who were calm or level-headed. He turned to Linksano and smirked, looking the man up and down and decided to have some fun, because the man was admittedly cute "Hey at least I get to see nice faces like yours Linksano"


Linkara sighed and turned to Linksano "I'm not the best story teller unless it's for a review or a certain topic. Can you do the honors of explaining this whole bull-crap for Magnus. Normally I would but there's a lot of things to get into and explain with science-related things that you're normally good with. So..." He turned to see Magnus smirking and immediately do slight flirting with Linksano. The man widened his eyes and smiled, turning to see Linksano's reaction. He knew the scientist would either get embarrassed or not get it at all. Either way it would be funny

Kitchen

Holmes's face softened as the man got flattered and emotional. As Stone started crying, Sherlock shushed him with a few kisses on the cheek around where the tears were. The detective was extremely romantic when he wanted to be, and he certainly wanted to be for his finally reunited love. The man nodded as Stone admitted to feeling strange with people saying either last name and offered the idea to just call him Mike, his first name, unless he had a nickname. Sherlock didn't pay attention to that yet after the two finished kissing after sherlock's persistance, eventually they pulled back. The detective grinned "Mike.... My love. Yes. Mike. I love it as I said as much as I love you" He sighed contently as the man wrapped his arms around him and then said they should leave the kitchen to go someplace private. Just so they could be together. Instantly Sherlock pulled Mike to him and whispered "Upstairs sounds like the perfect option my dear mike" He then took Stone with him

[Kim Possible]

Gene glared as Magnus kept calling him duckie and then shivered as hearing that triggered a memory.

"Come here duckie. I have a task for you." said a female voice.

Gene walked up to a duck all dressed in black. Her name was Morgana and she was Magica De Spell & Poe De Spell's ancestor.

"Please. I don't want to do that anymore." said Gene.

"Are you defying me duckie?" asked Morgana.

She picked up and whip and cracked it into the air. Gene shook his head and whimpered.

"No. Mistress. I'm sorry. I won't do it again." said Gene.

"Don't call me duckie!" said Gene.

He paused realizing he shouted. He was now shaking as he ran from the room embarrassed by his outburst. It wasn't Magnus's fault that he'd triggered one of his bad memories. Gene had centuries worth of memories and masters. While some were good most of them had been bad. Grimhilde and Merlock had been the nicest out of his most recent masters. He just stood in Critic's office to catch his breath and didn't notice he'd started to cry.

"All I ever wanted was to be free to play like a real boy and have fun. But I'm tied to that stupid lamp and whatever my masters want. It's just not fair." whispered Gene.

XXXX

Kim paused turning to Magnus in sympathy.

"You're from Sweden? Well You're in another world now like the most of us who were brought here. We don't have a way to send everyone back yet." said Kim.

She paused seeing Linksano and Linkara arrive and grinned hoping they could explain it better. Then Gene suddenly snapped at Magnus before taking off. She felt bad for the little guy. She knew he was a genie but it was easy to forget he was also a kid sometimes. She just didn't really know how to help him though and she might just make him more upset and embarrassed if she followed. So she stayed put for now.

XXXX

Linksano nodded.

"I'm afraid so. None of us want this war to happen. But now that it has we formed this army to stop it. There was originally two armies. Our army and the villains. But the villain army has now split into two armies." said Linksano.

Linksano paused as Linkara turned to him to explain everything. He was about to when Gene snapped and ran out of the room. He looked at where he'd run off to sadly.

"Poor little guy. Stuck as a kid for thousands of years. All the hardship of a genie on his shoulders, and so many evil masters who forced him to do things. We should have him talk to someone. He can't keep holding that stuff in. It's not good for him or for us if he snaps again in the middle of battle." said Linksano.

He paused turning back to Magnus and nodded. He looked at him as he said he had a nice face. Oblivious to Magnus's flirting he smiled.

"Why thank you. I always thought I have a nice face." said Linksano.

He grinned as he remembered the dvd he made that he put in the living room about the war.

"Come into the living room. I'll show you." said Linksano.

He walked towards the living room.

XXXX

Behind him Kim grinned seeing the attraction Magnus had for him. She realized he was flirting and thought it was cute. She then facepalmed when Linksano was totally oblivious to what was going on. She glanced at Linkara with a look like "Is he really that dense?" She then followed Linksano into the living room taking a seat on the sofa as the video began.

XXXX

Linksano turned towards Linkara, Kim, and Magnus.

"I started making this since we have several new members arriving a lot more frequently now. Figured this could help explain things and we could fill in any gaps I missed or that happened afterwards." said Linksano.

He puts in a dvd that shows how Insano created the device that pulled people to this world. How the armies were formed. How people were captured from this army twice. The battles in the woods and at the bases. The attempted rescues. And more. When the dvd was done he turned to Magnus.

"We are trying to replicate the device to send everyone home but so far our attempts have failed. We've tried to steal back the device but they've hidden it very well. Do you have any questions for us?" asked Linksano.

XXXX

Kitchen/Bedroom:

Mike blushed again as Holmes kissed him. He hadn't expected this day to happen and now he had someone who wanted him. Someone who loved him and he wasn't going to let him go. He grinned when Sherlock called him Mike. It felt right. His grin got deeper as Sherlock asid he loved his name as much as he loved him. He nodded when Sherlock decided on upstairs. Mike stopped hugging him as they headed upstairs.

Once upstairs they headed to their room and closed the door. He grinned sitting on the bed sitting next to Sherlock. He grinned at him.

"Well I know most about your life from reading your mysteries. Well at least about your mysteries. But I doubt Arthur Conan Doyle wrote all your mysteries. And there's only so much someone can write about you. I bet you even remember the stories differently too. We should get to know each other better. Talk about our lives, and thinks we like. Well besides each other." said Mike.

He grinned leaning closer kissing Sherlock on the lips again. He looked at him grinning. He froze as he just remembered something.

"It's probably a long shot but I want you to know. Like you had Professor Moriarty I had an arch nemesis too. A master thief named Yuki Anderson. I'm not sure if he's good as Moriarty but he certainly reminded me of him from the stories I've read. " said Mike.

He paused pulling out his laptop and bringing up a photo of Yuki to show to Sherlock.

"We were friends once. While I chose to dedicate my life to mysteries and reviewing them he used his intelligence for stealing. I've caught him several times but he hasn't tried to kill me. And when his henchmen tried to he punished them. I think he still cares about me even though we're no longer friends. I do miss the friendship we once had but I can't condone stealing. I just thought you should be aware in case he comes after you to get to me." said Mike.

(OCC: Hope you don't mind Critic being there for gene for a bit. If you do I'll edit this)

Critic's Office

Critic was not really aware of Magnus' arrival since he was actually probably getting a rest he never recieved since the month he endured in february was very rough. March was on the horizon and Critic felt terrible already. He and his army was suffering and he had to pay the penalty. He got out of bed after some self-convincing but then went to his office only to hear soft crying and murmurs. Having no idea what happened before, due to just coming out of bed, he didn't know who it was or why. So he entered in and was shocked to see the duck genie, Gene, crying. Critic was quick to be concerned and responded "Gene? What happened? What are you doing in my office?"

Living Room

Magnus nodded kindly to Kim who asked him if he was from sweden. He was glad that he didn't offend her. He then listened to both Linkara and linksano who both confirmed that kim's statements were true. After Linkara explained it he was turned to linksano's explainations of their being three sides, the side he was on, and two opposing villain sides. Magnus was patient to hear more from linksano but a loud snap from Gene caused Magnus to jump in surprise. Gene demanded to not call him duckie and Magnus didn't mean no disrespect and was about to apoligize then ask why he was snapped at but the genie duck ran in embarrassment and emotional stress before he could. Magnus was a bit guilty but more confused than anything, then Linksano explained pity and that Gene was once a child but now was forced the way he was for many years. Magnus was shocked, a child duck turned into a genie? That was something a drug addict could make up but he felt it to be true and honestly felt terrible for calling Gene duckie accidently. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset the poor thing. I just didn't know his name. I hope he gets some help or something"

He shook his head trying to forget that for now, he had bigger things to worry about, like this apparent war he was in. He tried to focus on how adorable/attractive Linksano was and got his amusement back when Linksano was oblivious to his attempt of flirting. That encouraged Magnus to try harder "Oh I don't think it cutie-face, I know your face is nice. I'm seeing it myself. You're welcome darling" OK, Magnus had to admit the darling had to get Linksano's attention right? Hopefully. Well it didn't matter now. He followed the four others into the couch in the living room to see a DVD of previous war attacks and he watched carefully. He still didn't take it seriously but he knew that it was REAL at least. Seeing the video always showed the truth and Magnus would've been lying if said he didn't believe in it still. He then turned to see Linksano ask him if he had questions, Magnus smirked and responded "Yeah Dr. I have two. One, why are the two opposite sides fighting us specifically and two, how is it you grabbed my attention so quickly? The second one you can take as much time as you need with" Magnus deliberately then gave a flirtatious wink to the scientist

(OCC: Magnus. Seriously. You're not even trying to hide it now. Stop it. You're in a war XDDD)

Linkara was shocked to see Gene so upset and run off, it was unfair for the genie to suffer the way he did. Linkara sighed and turned to Linksano in agreement "I'll find a way to get him to talk with someone. Maybe he can take a break from training and watch tv or do whatever he wants to do sometime" He then went red-faced with holding his laughter as Magnus continued to flirt at Linksano, and nearly snorted when Linksano was completely oblivious to it. He turned to Kim who gazed at him with a questioning look towards Linksano and Linkara started to chuckle, nodding his head in a yes fashion. Yes, Linksano when it came to romance was dense as a brick. He went to the living room and watched the dvd with a uneasy expression but his amusement came right back with Magnus continuing his flirtatious crusade with Dr. Linksano. Even going so far as to wink and call Linksano darling, Linkara covered his hand, desperate to not ruin it for magnus but he couldn't help but find so much amusement. It was too damn funny. Eventually he tried to calm down but with a high-pitched voice(That was what happened when he held back laughter), he responded to magnus "The villain sides want power and domination. Just not with each other. Facilier, a member of ask thatguy, betrayed him apparently to make his own army. The point is they want to hurt people and we won't let them"

Bedroom

Sherlock was practically skipping over to Mike, well obviously not really but he felt like doing that, his love was here and with him privately. He then listened to Mike intently when the man suggested they get to know each other better, due to arthur conan doyle's stories being quite a few and sherlock being so successful he had even more stories. He still had a problem accepting that, due to Watson he saw writing the same exact stories stone told him about. He nevertheless wordlessly nodded in agreement and kissed mike back when he kissed him again, the feel of mike's lips against his felt so complete and right.

When he pulled back, sherlock moaned in disappointment but listened to mike tell him about a man named Yuki. A master thief who was now stone's enemy, who in the past was a friend. He looked to see a photo of Yuki and instantly worry over his love came through him with the picture shown. An overprotective look came across him as Mike explained the backstory of yuki to him, that yuki wanted to be a thief rather than a detective and tried to terminate stone. He turned to mike caringly and nodded again and responded "I thank you for warning me about this man. That said, I wish you be careful around him too, he might try to take you away from here again. I refuse to lose you after so....so long" He then embraced Stone tightly, kissing his cheeks lovingly. Just loving the fact mike was here. His love was his.

[Detective Mike Stone]

Gene jumped hearing Critic's voice and nearly fell over grabbing a chair to steady himself. He looked in critic in a mixture of sadness and fear.

"I'm sorry. I just had to get away. The new guy called me duckie and I hate being called that. One of my old masters Morgana used to call me that. She was a sorceress and she was very cruel. She beat me if I didn't do what she asked. Sometimes if I was just late. She was my worst master. I tried to forget but the memories just won't go away. And some words just trigger the memories I tried to bury. Like duckie." said Gene.

Gene shuddered as he mentioned that name again. To prove his point he pulled back his sleeve to reveal several bruises and scars on his arms.

"One of her wishes was they wouldn't heal. That I'd be stuck like this. They don't hurt anymore. But they're just a reminder of what she did to me." said Gene.

He paused realizing this was Critic's office.

"Sorry. I didn't realize this was an office. I just wanted to be alone. I'll get out of your way. It won't happen again." whimpered Gene.

He walked towards the door to leave him alone.

(ooc: Feel free to stop him. Poor Gene only had a few good masters but recently they were all bad ones. He never met Scrooge and his families as he was pulled here before he met them.)

XXXX

Living Room:

Kim was worried about Gene. He'd always been a genie. He never got to play like other kids. His lamp got passed around over the years and she doubted he had many good masters. She'd read the story of Aladdin in her world. That genie had gotten lucky when Aladdin had met him first and later saved him from the evil vizier. But Gene wasn't that lucky. She would make sure she got that lamp away from Grimhilde when she could to free the poor boy.

"I'm sure he'll be okay. The word duckie must have brought back some bad memory. Perhaps we shouldn't call him that in the future." said Kim.

She couldn't help but grin as Magnus kept flirting with Linksano and she grinned at Linkara. He was being less subtle. Surely Linksano would figure it out now. She was proven wrong with LInksano's next statements as she grinned. She might have to play matchmaker with these two somehow.

XXXX

Linksano looked at Magnus with a grin. He looked at him oddly when he called him cutie-face and darling but shrugged it off. Perhaps it was just some swedish custom he hadn't heard about. He then noticed he'd winked at him and looked at him curiously.

"Thanks. Oh I think something might be wrong with your eye. You should get that looked at." said Linksano.

He paused looking at Kim and Linkara who seemed to be happy about something. He must have missed the joke. He turned listening to Magnus's questions.

"Well Ask That Guy and Dr. Insano started it with Insano's device. It pulled people from other worlds here and Ask That Guy formed one army with Insano as his second in command. Critic formed this one. About a few weeks ago Facilier, Rita, and Malachite formed an army of their own and left Ask That Guy's and now their live at the local circus using it as their base." said Linksano.

He paused looking at his second question.

"How did I grab you attention? By talking i think. Just like LInkara and Kim are doing." said Linksano.

Yes he was completely oblivious to what was going on. He nodded when Linkara backed him up.

"The war's been going on for over two months now. We hope to find a way to end this soon but so far we haven't had any luck." said Linksano.

Bedroom:

Mike smiled as Sherlock kissed him back. Hearing him moan when he stopped caused Mike to grin realizing he had such an effect on him. His grin got deeper as Sherlock got all protective when he mentioned Yuki. He felt flattered Sherlock cared so much about him.

"I've dealt with him before. Thankfully he doesn't want me dead. But I wouldn't put it past him to kidnap me or you just to mess with me." said M ie.

He grinned as Sherlock held him and kissed him again. He returned the kiss and pulled back to breathe.

"You're so good to me. I love you Sherlock." said Mike.

He grinned looking at him.

"So what do you want to do? I mean we can't kiss each other all day. Maybe we could watch a movie or something. I love watching mysteries and seeing if I can solve it before the end. What about you? Did you read about other cases or did you just focus on yours?" asked Mike.

[Magnus Martinsson]

Critic's Office

Critic was shocked to see Gene be scared and upset at his arrival but it turned out Gene was accidently triggered to remembering a previous master that abused and called him duckie. Critic was about to comfort gene when suddenly the young duck showed him a arm full of bruises and scars. Critic was appalled that someone was so cruel as to use a wish that didn't allow the poor thing to not heal completely. The leader had no idea gene suffered so much but he knew what he had to do now, especially since the poor thing was embarrassed and planning to leave. Critic stepped in front of the door to stop Gene and responded, kneeling down to look eye-to-eye with Gene "Listen Gene, what Morgana did to you is something you should never hide. She did terrible things to you and I'm here to tell you you don't have to be alone about this anymore" He put his hands on both of the duck's shoulders "I am not mad. On the contrary I'm glad I know about this now. I'm here to talk if you really want to. I care about you and I know what the new guy said was accidently triggering but know that he didn't mean anything by it. Regardless, your trigger word is something I'll make sure nobody ever calls you again ok?"

Magnus nodded at Kim's suggestion to never call gene duckie "It was definitely a trigger. I won't call him that anymore. Once I'm done here, I'll go apoligize to him... That is if he wants to see me" Magnus shrugged, trying not to look really guilty but in his eyes showed hurt. He couldn't believe he made someone so strange act so hurt and angered. Magnus never intended to hurt anyone verbally unless they did it to him, he was normally sarcastic with these situations. He turned to Linksano quickly with a smile regardless hoping Linksano got his message but it turned out it went way over the scientist's head and his grin turned into a unamused frown. OK, there was no way anyone would be this hard to get... OK. One more shot then he'll have to just give up and find a new stradegy. He tried to change his frown to a smile again, and it worked but the eye comment made his smile falter slightly "Ummm. Sure. Right. I'll check the eye. Got it" He sighed, looking to Kim and Linkara who both seemed extremely amused. Kim was more subtle while Linkara was just trying so hard not to laugh.

He then listened to Linksano's explaination of there being three armies. It turned out Critic and ask thatguy were the oldest armies but Facilier, a member of Ask Thatguy's, got a band together and left the army resulting in a circus for them. Magnus nodded "Alright. That explains it. I guess I'm glad I'm here then. You guys make more sense than a guy who literally calls himself ask thatguy. Alright, you sold me. I'll stay and do anything I can to help"

He then chuckled, slightly annoyed that Linksano was still oblivious to his flirtation. Magnus nodded "Oh yeah, you talking definitely got my attention. Still, I think that's not the only reason" He grinned "Well, I bet you catch a lot of eye attention with how smooth you chat or how intelligent you act eh darling?" Please let this one work, it had to work right?

Linkara was trying so hard not to laugh. It would ruin the fun of seeing how linksano would continue to act or if Magnus would lose his patience. Linkara saw that Magnus was still trying, though it seemed to be more pushy. The comic nerd couldn't help but snort as Linksano said that magnus' eye had something and possibly needed to be checked. He turned to kim and saw that she was far more sutble than he was. He felt a bit bad with his obviousness but it was hysterical. Linksano, the intelligent scientist, was being hit on and he didn't even know it. Linkara then calmed down for only a few seconds to say "Well magnus. I'm glad you're here and I'm sure so will the rest of us here will appreciate your services. Now with this out of the way, should we show you the rest of the house? What do you think kim? Or should we leave linksano and magnus to check out the lab?" He was trying to get the two alone so he could snoop on how it would go or simply to help magnus out. That and he wanted to go somewhere to chat with kim about this and laugh his ass off.

Sherlock smirked as Mike saw amusement in how he reacted to the kissing being ended. He then frowned at Mike's assurance of Yuki just being around to bother or kiddnap Mike, Sherlock wouldn't let that happen, not on his watch. Sherlock harshly responded "I still will make sure he stays away from you. I'll be damned before he gets away with harming you regardless of how he pulls it off" He then calmed down as Mike kissed him once more and he hummed in pleasure. Eventually that kiss also ended but sherlock was content that time, and he just made mike come close to him and he breathed softly as Mike said he loved him. Love me? It has been so long since someone admitted that. It is so perfect He thought as he started showing signs of true love towards Mike. "And I love you mike, my darling assistant, my precious friend, my everlasting love" He then just listened to mike as he said that they should do more things besides kissing. Sherlock joked instantly "Oh I don't know. I quite enjoy what we have been doing so far"

He chuckled and responded "Watching a mystery movie sounds quite splendid. After that perhaps I can tell you a case not even watson knows about hmm?"

Critic's Office:

Gene looked at Critic and sniffled as he wiped the tears from his face.

"I haven't had many kind masters or much kindness in general. Until I cam here. 90's Kid has been the first real friend I've ever had. And now you're being so kind. Thank you." said Gene.

He listened as he said he wasn't mad that he was there if he wanted to talk. And he turned and hugged Critic as he couldn't help but sob.

"I've lived for centuries Critic. Morgana was the worst master I had. I could count the amount of good masters I had on one hand and it's lower than you think." said Gene.

He looked at him sadly.

"They already know something's wrong. A group were out there talking before. I don't know if I'm ready to talk about it. I've buried this for so long. Just moving onto the next master. Grimhilde has actually surprised me. She's not as bad as I expected her to be. Although I wouldn't exactly call her one of my good masters either." said Gene.

He knew she'd done evil in her past but she was helping Critic's army so she couldn't be all bad after all. He sighed looking up at Critic.

Living Room:

The topic soon shifted to another topic as they were worried about Gene but knew they couldn't help him unless he asked for it. Kim just watched them tak with a smirk seeing Linkara could barely hold in his laughter. She listened as Linksano said Magnus should get his eye checked out as she snickered. Seeing Linksano look at her she smiled.

"Sorry just thought of a joke. Don't mind me." said Kim.

She heard Linkara suggest a tour and they could leave them alone.

"Yeah. Let's give them a tour." said Kim.

She was tempted to lock the two in a closet together but with how dense Linksano was being she wasn't sure if that would help either.

Linksano paused looking up at Magnus and smiled.

"Good. I wouldn't want something to be wrong with your eyes." said Linksano.

He paused glancing at Kim and Linkara as Kim said she was thinking of a joke and to not mind her. He nodded glancing at LInkara and then shook his head. He turned back to Magnus.

"Another reason?" asked Linksano.

He paused as he said he catches a lot of attention with how smooth he talked or how smart he was. He heard the word darling and figured it was just how he talked. Like Cruella De Vil who called Anita darling.

"Smooth? I wish. People just usually ignore me unless they want something. Or get annoyed when I take too long to explain something. I haven't got a date in months and my last date was a blind date and she was so annoying. All she did was talk and talk. I faked being sick and went home early. That's the last time I take dating advice from 90's Kid." said Linksano.

He shuddered at the thought. He paused turning to Linkara.

"I still haven't forgotten you talked me into going as well. You said I needed to get out more or something like that.." said Linksano.

He was totally oblivious that Magnus was flirting him and that he was possibly hurting Magnus's feelings. Yes this doctor was a bit dense. He heard Linkara and nodded.

"Yes a tour sounds like fun. Although I'm not sure how long I can be on it. I have some work to do in the lab. I'm working on updating our weapons and trying to create new ones." said Linksano.

Bedroom:

Mike smiled just enjoying spending time with Sherlock. He heard him speak saying he wanted to make sure Yuki stayed away from him.

"I can take care of myself you know. But I'm glad you want to protect me." said Mike.

He grinned as they kissed again and it ended. He looked up as Sherlock said he loved him return as Mike pulled him into a hug and grinned.

"I've wanted to hear those words for so long." said Mike.

He grinned as Sherlock said he enjoyed what they were doing so far. Mike chuckled.

"Well we don't have to do anything else I suppose. Watching a movie with you would be fun. Heck I think even watching paint dry would be fun with you." said Mike.

He grinned as Sherlock said watching a mystery movie sounded splendid.

"You know in this world there have been many versions of Sherlock Holmes played by several different actors. You know Tony looks like you? The same guy, Robert Downey Jr, played Tony in 4 movies and you in two movies here. There's even an animated series where you ended up in the 22nd century and team up with Inspector Lestrade's descendant and a robot who malfunctioned and believed it is Dr. Watson. You go around New London stopping the clone of Professor Moriarty and other criminals. It was one of my favorite shows actually. So do you have a preference for mysteries type movie?" said Mike.

Critic listened, as he promised he would and heard the young child-like duck genie explain that morgana really hurt him. That and he had lived for centuries with a majority of his masters being cruel or terrible to him. Yes he had good masters but they were far and in between, it was understandable that his job was hard to do and hard to deal with. Critic then heard gene survived, apparently, by keeping it in and moving on. It sounded good but really it wasn't. The critic sighed and responded "I can't imagine what you've been through but I wanna let you know, again, whenever you're ready to talk about it I'm here. That said, if you wanna talk to someone else, let me know and I'll fetch them. You don't have to be ready now but eventually, you're gonna burst and you're not gonna like it, so I suggest finding a time for you to talk" He didn't want to sound harsh and fortunately he sounded rather patient and kind. The critic knew this feeling before but also knew that if gene kept it in, it would seriously affect him.

"Good! Glad you guys like the idea!" Linkara quickly responded, calming down finally, trying his hardest to stop laughing. He turned at Linksano's look at him and he responded "What kim said. I thought of some weird pun. Don't mind me" He then saw Linksano densely explain and pretty much ignore all of magnus' attempts with him. With confusing the wink as something wrong on magnus' eye, confused with magnus' comment of other reasons of his attention towards linksano and the fact linksano denied being a smooth talker or whatnot. Linkara covered his mouth as Linksano obliviously denied magnus' compliment, saying he was either ignored unless for more use or get annoyed with him, and instead tell a rather hilarious story of a blind date both 90's kid and himself forced him to. Linkara was so amused with how ignorant his friend was with magnus, also finding it rather cute that magnus was attracted to his friend, and like kim wanted the two to patch up. He then raised his hands in defense as Linksano turned on him in his involvement with the blind date "I didn't know she was going to be so annoying for you linksano. I was just trying to let you have fun! No need to get hostile"

He then got up and smirked at linksano's response. That gave him a idea to get linksano involved finally with magnus. "Well I'm glad you need to work at the lab linksano. Because I was thinking you could show magnus the whole lab. Then me and kim will find more rooms to show him. Right kim?" He turned to kim, hoping she would help try to get the two alone, even for a little while

Magnus was shocked of how oblivious this scientist was. For a doctor who focused very well on technology and alchemy, he had little to no skills when it came to social cues. While magnus was aware of this, it seemed to make him all the more attracted and determined, something about this slow-minded way of linksano's was rather charming. He felt a tad hurt at his rejection of a compliment, doubting Linksano was THAT annoying or THAT boring, but it was only for a short period of time and he just shrugged. He smirked at Linkara who defended himself about the blind date and smiled as he could tell both kim and linkara were trying to help him. "The lab sounds good. I'm curious to what nice or interesting stuff you got Dr. Linksano" He wasn't quitting but he was definitely putting a hold to it for now. The winking was especially off the list now that linksano assumed his eye was acting weird.

"I know. Regardless I think protecting you is a agenda I cannot miss" Sherlock assuredly responded. He knew deep in his heart mike was a man who could take care of himself but his love caused him to be quite overprotective, especially since a enemy of his was here to harm mike. He hugged back and sighed softly, kissing mike's cheek softly afterwards as mike responded that he'd been waiting to hear that for such a while. He responded back "Well then. Best be used to it, because I will now say it for the rest of my days. Including this one. I love you" He smiled mischieviously as mike said, despite that they didn't need to do anything, he still wanted to watch something. Sherlock listened to his suggestions and responded "The movie with this man named robert downey jr. I would like to see that one. I am curious to how he acts as myself. That and I wish to see if the man acting as dr. watson is accurate"

Critic's Office:

Gene sniffled as he wiped his tears as he heard Critic's words.

"No one's ever really cared about me like this before. All people cared about were the three wishes then it was back to my lamp. Sometime for years. But then I came here. I made some friends. You're the only person I've told this too. I didn't think anyone would really care this way about me. I was starting to think all I was good for was magic. And you know what's really stupid? All I want is to be a regular kid. But I'll never be free of that lamp. No one would give up a wish to waste on me." said Gene.

Fresh tears streaked down his face as he sobbed hugging Critic.

"Thank you for listening. I wish more of my masters had been like you." said Gene.

Living Room:

Kim grinned at the situation. Linksano just seemed totally oblivious. She chuckled at Linksano's blind date with that girl.

"Sounds like you just been unlucky in love. Maybe you just haven't found the right person yet." said Kim.

Kim paused turning to Linkara.

"Say Linkara I think you were going to show me some of your new gadgets. Since I don't have Wade here you were going to help outfit me with new stuff. Linksano can show Magnus around." said Kim.

She paused hoping Linkara took the bait. She did need some new gadgets but those could wait. Linksano and Mangus needed to be alone for awhile.

Linksano paused glancing at Linkara and frowned.

"I didn't even want to go in the first place. But you two and Harvey talked me into it. I can't remember how you did it though. You must have promised me something." said Linksano.

He paused as Linkara said he could show Magnus the lab and then Linkara and Kim could show him more of the house later. Then Kim talked about gadgets and Linkara offering to help her. Well showing the lab might be fun. He could show Magnus around. When Magnus mentioned the lab sounded good he grinned.

"Well alright. I think you'd enjoy the lab and my inventions. I'm always glad to show them off to people." said Linksanl.

Bedroom:

Mike grinned at him.

"I'm glad to hear that. I feel the same way. I'm just glad we don't have to worry about Moriarty or anyone else you've fought in the past. That might have caused some problems." said Mike.

Mike grinned as Holmes hugged him back and kissed him. Mike grinned thinking he could be content to just sit here and chat with or without the movie fo the rest of the day. He grinned as Sherlock said he loved him again.

"That's something I could never get tired of. I love you too Sherlock. You know aside from split personality I'm glad nothing bad has happened to us. I mean a lot of the others have gotten really hurt or kidnapped. I'm just glad both of us are safe and together at last." said Mike.

He paused with a grin.

"Alright. Sounds like a plan. Although I have to admit I didn't really care much for your films. Nothing personal. This story in the first film just seemed very unlike you. I mean you normally solve crimes like murder and theft. And to go off searching for a demon cult felt more supernatural and less mystery. But perhaps hearing about it from your point of view could be interesting as he watch the film." said Mike.

He nodded.

"I'm not sure about Dr. Watson. But he's played by an actor here called Jude Law. I think we might have a copy of that film somewhere. Let me check." said Mike.

He got up returning a couple minutes later as it had been in a dvd cabinet in his shelf. Despite his feelings of the movie he just couldn't part with the movie. It was a Sherlock Holmes film after all.

"You ready to watch it?" asked Mike.

He listened to everything Gene said and felt absolutely horrible for the young duck genie. He listened to his pains and just allowed the thing to rant. He couldn't help but wish he was there previously for Gene. He allowed the duck kid to hug him and he said calmly, trying to mask his sorrow "I'm sorry that I wasn't there for you before. Like I wish I could make all your problems go away. Hell, I wish my problems could go away. But I'm here now and if you need me I'm here" He wasn't there for ma-ti so why not for Gene? He had to make it up someway

"Thank you kim! At least someone agrees with me. You'll find the right person Linksano" Linkara said quickly, deliberately looking to her and magnus who both paid attention to the situation before them. "I paid you with cookies and another junior chemestry play-set so you could make more cybermats" Linkara responded cheerfully before Kim told him that she needed more gadgets and that Linkara was going to show her some. Linkara instantly got what Kim was trying to do and he took the bait very quickly. The scientist with magnus needed to be alone and Linkara was going to do it. "Oh! That is exactly right kim. It's up in my room. Linksano, you can take magnus to the lab. Hey kim, follow me. I got plenty of things since Wade isn't here for you" He cocked his head to the side to make Kim follow him and he went up to his room hoping she would follow.

Magnus was amused with Linksano's responses to Linkara and felt the two obviously were quite close friends in order to bicker like siblings. He then smiled as both Kim and Linkara were trying to help him by making each other leave while Linksano would show him the lab and other parts of the house. He got that the pair were trying to leave him alone with Linksano. He reminded himself to thank them for their efforts, whether it worked or not. He then grinned widely as Linksano said he was always glad to show the lab. "That's not the only thing I want you to show" Magnus mumbled to himself as he took a sneak peek at Linksano's physque

"Moriarty was a clever man I will never deny that but he was too dangerous for anyone to endure. I was desperate to see his end" Sherlock admitted calmly. He enjoyed kissing mike once more but listened to what mike said to him. He smiled fondly to Mike as he said he could never get tired of that and saying that he loved him too. Sherlock just looked the man over and grinned, falling in love with him more and more. "As am I. I am glad that we are together finally" He then nodded as Mike responded that he didn't like the films that had the actor looking like him, saying that it focused on supernatural stuff more than mystery. Sherlock shrugged "But he still looks like me right? In the good way? If that is the case, I will just watch and explain to you if it makes it any easier"

"Jude law? Interesting" Sherlock said, gaze curious and completely interested. He waited for Mike to find it and then saw him eventually see it. He saw the DVD cover before looking at mike who asked if he was ready to watch it. He nodded with a smile "Absolutely"
