All roads lead back to Baker Street [OPEN]

Normally when one opens the blue door to 221 B Baker Street they are presented with a hallway and the interior of the corridor that leads up the stairs.

Normally.

But when Sherlock Holmes, clad in his normal dark gray coat and blue scarf absently opened up the door and stepped through, shutting it without a second thought, he was more than mildly surprised to see that the interior was now a plaza with other people in it, and all sorts of things that usually weren't present outside of Mrs. Hudson's door.

The detective blinked, and tried to remember when he'd last slept.

Nope, he actually had gotten a proper sleep the night before, having finished a case. He'd even woken up late. Perhaps he'd been hit with some kind of gas? He sniffed the air, could be odorless.

Oddly enough though, this didn't feel like a dream. It had logical consistency. Well, if that logical consistency continued to hold up, he was going to have a LOT of questions.

Nick's dirty and tattered trench coat and his plastic skin is missing in some places. Though if he is a robot, Nick doesn't exactly fit the mold for a traditional robot even for his own home universe. He is way too cheeky and has just too much sass for that. But yes, technology has taken one hell of a leap in comparison to modern day London.

And even then, Nick wonders what became of the London in his home universe, and he suspects it looks no better than the cities in the United States.

"I've read about London. But..." Nick's interest perks up, as does his voice at the mention of Sherlock having cases to solve. "...you'll have to tell me about these cases of yours. And I'm sure your colleagues will do just fine without you."
