[He saw that obit. He's making assumptions, but House is desperately curious to know what happened with the doctor friend... mainly because he seemed like he'd be useful.]
suresh that annoying, then?

[He doesn't know where his tablet has gone, though he'll be most interested to see if there's any additional video feed from the last twenty four hours if he ever finds it again, so he couldn't text John to find out if he is alive and okay.
To a given value of okay.
Sherlock himself feels almost as if he is an automaton, his body outwardly going through the motions and enough of his brain still in the moment to make basic decisions such as directions, but the rest of him has retreated inwards. He killed two men last night and, though arguably both men did deserve it, he's not a murderer usually. He stops murderers. It bothers him to have that blood on his hands.
It bothers him so much more that his mind, his mind, had been altered. That digs right under his skin and leaves him incredibly disturbed. Truthfully, he almost stayed where he woke up, curled up and non functioning. But he recalls John with one eye, he recalls him being handcuffed and helpless, and thus he pushes through.
The first thing he does when he reaches the aquarium is check the spot John was handcuffed to, but he finds nothing. So he sets about searching the rest of the building.]

[It's a few hours before John and Sherlock make it back to the aquarium. John slows down once he has his friend in tow. So, it's nearing lockdown by the time the men make it. John all but orders Sherlock to stay away from Sylar for at least a little while before marching over the other man, moping in his corner. The doctor's expression is inscrutable for once as he looks down at the man. His bearing is militant, though, and Sherlock would probably recognize the signs of violence that are forthcoming.]
Get up, please, Sylar.
Get up, please, Sylar.
[Wait here, John has said. Wait here, guard the Joker, and he will be back tomorrow after he's taken care of a blood transfusion.
If Sherlock heard the order, it's already forgotten, because he's dressed to go out pretty soon after John has gone, gesturing for Gabriel to follow.]
Come with me.

[Maybe it's a poor idea to contact Sylar, but John doesn't have much choice after pissing off Al--they always seem to come back to that. He doesn't want to have to go searching for more livers if they're already available. It would be a waste of effort.]
Mr. Gray, I wanted to ask if you and Alphonse have been able to acquire the livers I spoke with him about.

[ Royce takes a day to rest before he sends this message - he's still adjusting mentally from being an anomaly, it's... hard. It's also been almost two weeks since the girls, too. His voice is rough. ]
I still don't think I have your name right. [ A good way to start, he supposes. ]

I do not recommend the lodgings here.

Could do without the piles of bodies.

I talked to the Admin. Based on what she told Doctor Watson about the procedure I'm willing to be your sponsor, but I think it's important for you to know that this isn't a permanent fix. There won't be any permanent changes to your brain's structure or chemistry; we're talking about ongoing, active chemical and electrical treatment from the nanomachines. If they ever get deactivated, it'll all revert somewhere between a couple hours and a couple days afterward.
[ Sylar receives a video of Royce - or at least, a form of Royce. He's that same monster from before, a mix between a nazgul and a dementor and a sentient cloak. His hands are long claws, rusted knives that slide together horribly when he tries to grab the tablet. Royce ends up putting the tablet on the floor and hovering over it, bright yellow eyes the only thing visible from the void inside the hood.
He's already figured out he can't use words. Instead, he just growls low at the tablet, clacking his knife-claws on the screen. Answer, Sylar, he's back.
And he saw your post on the obituary. ]

Hey. I thought you'd want to know, I... got my light back.
[There's not a lot of room in the shed - the three of them are crammed in there, with not much room for privacy. But at one point, when Royce has dozed off, Alfie scoots over to Sylar and says quietly:]
About this procedure you were talking about earlier.

Lelric has the instructions for picking up your stuff.
That's a lot of messages.

are you and your group still in the new area?

[ At first he intends to leave a voice message. But once he gets to his inbox, he's quiet. Gabriel might be able to pick up the sounds of the building Vanitas is in, but nothing more for a couple of seconds. Then Vanitas is throwing his tablet across the room with a loud clatter. ]
