ACT I
THE GAME IS AFOOT

IVY LIU - THE DETECTIVE SERGEANT AND FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGIST

"Mask your brilliance all you like, but behind every performance, the truth festers. You think the world is fooled by your indifference, your arrogance—but that mask isn't for them, Sherlock. It's for you. It's to convince yourself that you're more machine than man, so you won't feel the weight of being human. But you and I both know—eventually, the cracks will show. The truth always does."

SHERLOCK HOLMES - THE CONSULTING DETECTIVE

"It's a matter of observation and deduction, you see. Most people, when they see a thing, they only see what they wish to see or what is obvious. But a true detective observes everything—the small details that others overlook. People are all strange in their own way, and the more you understand about human nature, the more capable you are of understanding the intricate web of lies, truths, and contradictions that people weave. It's not just about solving the case; it's about unraveling the tapestry of the human condition."

JOHN H WATSON - THE DOCTOR, VETERAN, AND BLOGGER

"Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We encounter mysteries every day—unexpected twists and turns that challenge our perceptions and beliefs. What may seem ordinary can quickly spiral into the extraordinary, leaving us awestruck and bewildered. In the end, it is the unpredictable nature of life that teaches us the most profound lessons, revealing that our imaginations, no matter how vivid, are merely shadows of reality's complexity. The truth, however elusive, is often far more captivating than any fiction we could dream up."

JIM MORIARTY - THE CONSULTING CRIMINAL

"Everyone has a weakness. It's my job to find it. You see, I don't just want to cause chaos; I want to see the world burn, to watch the great minds unravel under the weight of their own hubris. Life is a game, and I'm simply the player who knows all the rules. I offer you a choice—join me in the dance of destruction, or be consumed by it. Either way, the show must go on. After all, the greatest thrill comes not from the outcome, but from the madness that ensues when people realize they're not as in control as they think."

MARTHA LOUISE HUDSON - THE LANDLADY

"Life in this old house has always been full of surprises. I've seen all sorts of people come and go, and I've learned that it's the little things that matter most. You can't always predict what tomorrow will bring, especially when you live with two such brilliant yet bewildering men. But beneath the chaos and the mysteries, there's a sense of family here. I may be just the landlady, but I care for both of you like my own. Remember, it's the moments spent together, the laughter shared over tea, that truly make a home. Even in the shadows of danger and intrigue, love and friendship light the way."

MOLLY HOOPER - THE PATHOLOGIST

"Every day, I walk through the corridors of the morgue, surrounded by the silence of those who can no longer speak. It reminds me how precious life is and how easily it can slip away. I've learned that we often take for granted the moments that matter—the laughter with friends, the quiet conversations that linger long after they're over. It's easy to become consumed by the sadness of loss, but I believe there's beauty in those memories, too. They teach us to cherish every heartbeat, every breath, and to find meaning in the chaos. Life may be fleeting, but the connections we make, the love we share, endure beyond the grave. That's what gives me hope, even in the darkest of times."
