EXCERPT

"Mind Palace?" Loki echoed with a frown.

"Yes," Sherlock confirmed, "it's... how do I explain it? You use visual memory to build a mental house, and use the rooms to remember information."

"And this actually helps you remember things?" Loki frowned.

"Yes," Sherlock nodded, "for example - what was Miss Hudson wearing this morning?"

"Why should I care?" Loki asked, "that's not relevant at all."

"But that's the thing," Sherlock replied patiently, "in detective-work, everything is relevant. You see, she was wearing an old pants, which means she'll be working in the garden because she also had boots on. And if she's working in the garden, she'll be busy for a while. Which'll ensure that she won't clean our room, and find my revolver under the mattress."

Loki raised an eyebrow.

"Impressive."

Sherlock smiled.

"I know, I can be a genius, sometimes."

"Join the club," Loki mumbled, "genius, well-armed, abandoned psychopaths."

"High-functioning sociopath," Sherlock corrected automatically.

"What?" Loki frowned.

"Sociopath," Sherlock repeated, "not psychopath."

"So you're saying you have feelings," Loki smirked, "that's interesting coming from a person who locks themselves up in their... mind palace... twenty-four-seven. I'm sticking to psychopath - it's closer to philanthropist too."

"Stop talking John," Sherlock mumbled, clearly zoning out again.

Loki sighed.
