[video | a little trip down memory lane]

[Helena has nothing better to do, so she's taking a little trip down good old memory lane to pass the time. The subject? One of her favourite inventions, her rocket. The best part? It just so happens to coincide with an interesting case she and her partner at the time never were able to solve. And the best best part? This particular memory takes place in 1893, back when H.G. a) was one hell of a lot younger and b) still had all of her marbles. Yay!]



[ooc: Ignore the bit in the beginning about Christina, the writers decided to bump up the year of her demise about eight years in this episode, despite screencaps from a previous episode that states otherwise. >/ Gahhh.]

[ ... Just when she thought she had a slight idea to you, or had tried to. And then you blow her away. And mess with her history. She knew H.G., or so she now thought. And artefacts and the Warehouse? Her interest is highly piqued ]

Did you happen to discover 'his' next book?

Your brother's.

[ And because this is clearly what happened to her: ] The community shared your thoughts.

Was that his or yours?

[ My, my... ] It occurred to me also several days ago.

Of course. [ Such a tone of disbelief.

And oh crap ]

[ What tone? ] Despite your memories that I've seen.

Perhaps, but I have heard that the community enjoys posting what we would prefer to remain hidden. There's no sense for it to reveal a false memory. [ There's no sense in any of it, she already knows that ]

There isn't, no. But the truth is a little easier to detect than you may think. [ Not that she can do that, except intuition... and picking up a few tricks from Sherlock Holmes ]

Easier. But I believe that more of that memory is true than what you would care to admit. [ She believes in extraordinary women of that time, remember ]

H.G. Wells. Helena. [ And all those lovely conversations that she'd had with "H.G."... oh darn ] There's a somewhat nicer ring than Herbert.

I knew him, "Herbert". He was a good man.

The "envious sibling", as you put it?
longaevus: (and around [ thoroughly so ])

I remember that all too well.

You don't seem to have let that stop you, however.

[ Have an amused head shake ] And your work?
