"Okay. Am I forgetting anything else? Oh, I know. I want to be immune to drugs as a general class of thing unless I decide otherwise," she says disgustedly. "Arthur Mallory oughtn't have been able to do what he did. I'll fold that into my version of the regen, I think, they'll just dissolve on contact if they try to touch my metabolism without an invitation."
"I may as well see if I can fit Stella's past-viewing power onto the same evil. Could come in handy. I hope I blind Arthur Mallory when I attend his trial with his stupid magic-seeing power. Sherlock, do you know what happened to my fire wand? Did Giles grab it, or what?"
"Okay, good. The fact that it now belongs to a mint means it probably can't be usefully passed along - I'm going to try to avoid making Shell Bell's mistake that led to it ever making sense to give it to me in the first place - but it could've been bad to have it floating around."
"Okay. I'll evil me some stuff, I'll hex you some stuff, are there any more details you need to work out between you about how you want to consolidate yourselves?"
"Do you want to wait a bit to see if you think of anything, or shall I just rapid-fire everything under discussion?"
She takes a deep breath.
She closes her eyes.
She wishes on the evil.
He claims first hug on the new Sherry.
The previous non-vampire Sherlock might have guessed something about what vampire-her did, but he did not remember it, and she is not sure to what extent the consolidation may feel like learning something new.
Then he sits down by Juliet and scoops her into his arms.
"Home to go tell Charlie and Giles and Jarvis that I am - well, I guess I technically am dead, but that I will not be behaving in a manner befitting a dead person? And Jarvis will be interested to see Tony, I imagine. And I should warn the next Slayer. Definitely have to give her a heads-up."
But she can now do it very, very fast!
"Now we can leave." And she leads the way out of the Belltower.
"Have I mentioned I'm glad I'm not dead? Well—you know what I mean. Whatever."
"I'm glad you're conscious-and-capable-of-affecting-the-
