I Think We Need Counseling

Chapter 14

Jim's responses

1. Why do kill people?

I kill people for several reasons. First of all when they threaten someone I work for. When I'm ordered to kill them. Then there's when I was bored, but I've stopped killing for that reason since you came back. I can't promise I won't ever kill again, but I won't kill unless it's absolutely necessary.

2. Do you have a mind palace similar to Sherlock's?

Yes, but I call it my mind fortress. It's basically a huge castle with tons of rooms, each with different pieces of information. My most treasured room inside is the one labeled Molly. It has everything I know about you in it, and I'm going to board up all my doors that have anything to do with killing for you. 

3. Have you ever dated/slept with anyone before me?

In a sense yes, I have slept with people and "dated" but not anyone I've ever actually liked. Mostly I'd date people to get close to others or sleep with them for information, if I didn't have to kill them. You are the only person that I've ever loved, if your asking if I've ever had a real/serious relationship before you then no.

4. When did you first start killing people?

I started killing people in high school, they weren't locals though. I would practice on people in different parts of England, my family was big on travel. I was bored, that's how everything started. I was walking down a street when I bumped into this guy. He said "Sorry, Moriarty." when I bumped into him. I was confused and tried to catch up with him and ask how he knew my name. I followed him for several streets until I walked into an alley and thought I'd lost him. He came up behind me and asked what I thought of killing. I told him I'd never given it much thought, but I was lying. Whenever I would read the people I would curse all the people who would get caught and devise ways that they could have avoided trial. He asked if I wanted to sit in on a murder and I said yes. He and I walked for a while until we found a girl who looked a bit drunk and coaxed her into an alley. He showed me how to kill and taught me how not to get caught. I caught on fast and soon surpassed him, even after he taught me everything he knew. I still respect the guy and when someone told me to kill him I instead helped fake his death.

5. What was your childhood like?

My child hood was like any other, except I was really smart. I passed all my tests with flying colors and even corrected my teachers. I never got bullied because I black mailed the football team into being my personal body guards. I pretty much ruled the school and intimidated whoever I wanted. I was king. My parents didn't care much what I did as long as they never had to show up at my school, so I did whatever I wanted. 

6. What do you do when I'm not home?

I work, either blackmailing people or helping other's devise ways to kill people. Whenever a killer has a problem they come to me and I help them solve it.

8. Do you have brother's or sister's?

No, only child.

9. Were you ever actually gay?

No,  I only played that up to get to Sherlock, I'm straight. I have had to be gay before for some other jobs I've done but I've never shagged a guy.

10. What do you think of kids?

I would love kids! I know I'm not the best influence, but if we had kids I would give up killing and never teach them how, if that's what your worried about. I would try to be a model parent. On one condition, I teach them how to count! (I accidentally skipped #7!)
