Would you say you're good at manipulating people? You know, since you work in the government and all... If so, what's your favorite tactic and what's the fastest tactic to get something you want or need?

(Also, have you ever had to cross-dress for an assignment?)

Manipulation?

I believe you mean strategic influence. My role requires understanding people, and I’m rather adept at it. The quickest way to achieve results?

Information.

Possessing or sharing the right detail can be remarkably efficient.

As for disguises, I suggest you look to my brother @consult-sherlockholmes. He’s the one with an unfortunate penchant for legwork—heels included.

Did you ever have any big problems because @consult-sherlockholmes stole one of your badges? I imagine he could cause a lot of chaos with it if he wanted to.

Other than my name appearing a suspiciously large amount of times for various "routine police stops", he has actually successfully snuck into a fairly large press conference about a particularly grueling case with my badge. Nearly got me sacked but he knew what to say to lure out the suspect of said press conference. God knows we need the help, and he gets results, but sometimes...

Hello, everyone! I am Inspector Greg Lestrade. I'd prefer it if I'm called "Inspector Lestrade" and welcome to my humble blog page where I post updates and such. I am still new to this whole "blogging" thing but I have seen Doctor Watson do this. Nobody at my workplace except @mollyatthemorgue uses this app so she helped me set all this up.

Sherlock give it a break, I've been barking up that tree for years.

Maybe you should turn into a bird then and fly into the tree, if the dog barking approach did not work.

I am begging, crying, pleading, I am on my hands and knees.

I want to rp Mystrade so bad, someone rp it with me.

[tamerlane-holmes]

I personally think these are great. I’m sure I would also own a cup that says “Some people need a high-five. In the face. With a chair.”

I won’t name names, but that could apply to a few people in particular.

-TH

So.

Cups and Sherlock BBC characters!

(John’s mug says “Some people need a high five. In a face. With a chair.”)

Speaking of whiskey...

...You still have the one I imported?

[di-greglestrade]

Hello, I am officially speaking out right now. There's not much behind the scenes, at least for me. Thank you to @bewitched-bullet for being so patient and understanding, and all you stand for. You are inspiring. :)

Here's most of my statement. I will screenshot and post here, regardless. Screenshots of my statement under the keep reading.

This is as far as my experience goes, so I have nothing else to add after this. I hope everyone learns better communication so they can go back to having fun. It's just not working with me.

Under the keep reading I have 1 other statement based on an ask, but then it goes into my screenshots of my original statement.

First, to comment on this:

If this was a stand alone blog, I agree we don't necessarily have to communicate. Since there is already established lore of a relationship between Mycroft and Greg, I tried to communicate. Since people would ask me what happened at events I was included in:

I attempted communication. I received none back, so I stopped roleplaying. (Sure, I could make up something for the new years party, but what am I to say about the toxicology report on a fanfiction someone else wrote without me?) Simple and nothing dramatic.

Here are the screenshots of my statement:

[inspectorgreglestrade]

I've heard that @consultjohnwatson and @artofdeductionbysholmes are involved in another case. Good luck, gentlemen. If you need any help, I'm here.

[inspectorgreglestrade]

He does know that I can put him in jail just for saying that, right?

Fuck you, Anderson

[consult-sherlockholmes]

Are you sure Lestrade @di-greglestrade and your brother are not on speaking terms? Because it seems they had dinner together and was all hugging and smiling based on the photo on his blog.

They did what? They had dinner? Hugging and smiling? I didn't even think my brother is capable of such things. So I doubt whether those claims are true. But I am not my brother after all, I don't stalk my siblings and surveil them every second of their life, so luckily I do not know what my brother does in his free time. So it could be possible I missed that, and I would rather continue to not know about such things, or talking to Lestrade would be quite uncomfortable in the future.

[mycroft-h-holmes]

How annoying do you find Sherlock?

-anon ✨️

( @anon-sparkle )

It really depends on the day, Anon.

At best, I find Sherlock's antics amusing. At worst, I'm reaching for my best whiskey.

[di-greglestrade]

Good ole streets. A wonderful path to take.

[willllllllllllllll]

If I may ask, why did you break up?

I quite enjoy doing these polls.

[inspectorgreglestrade]

You know, Inspector Lestrade. It's sad to see how... unaware you are... So much happening right under your nose. And for a little girl to be the one to do it. It's really an awful look for you.

And you really shouldn't write your passwords on sticky notes. It really just made my job easier. Who knew your desktop was so disorganized!

@artofdeductionbysholmes You might want to look at this.
