Plannign Revenge Or How does Colonel Moran spend his time in Dartmoor Prison.

“If your man is more dangerous than the late Professor Moriarty, or than the living Colonel Sebastian Moran, then he is indeed worth meeting.”

Through my window I can see the sunset.

It’s bloody annoying.

My last cellmate endured my company for whole four days, before he killed himself. I didn’t even have to incite him. Well, not much.

I read a lot. Before I barely touched a book. But to plan my revenge on Holmes The Hound of the Baskervilles proves particularly educative.

A very good scene, with each paragraph another plus. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. ^^

There's a very, very dark humour to this: getting his cellmate to kill himself and reading Watson's work for ideas on how to take his revenge ^^" (Edit: I've just realised that, of course, there's an escaped prisoner in HOUN ^^") It's a most convincing look at the inside of Moran's mind - certainly not a pleasant place to be.

Sometimes I truly wonder where my imagination took me.
And sometimes, like in this case, I'm actually a bit of scared. Moran's mind is a terribly twisted place.

Striking. And very well written - those first two lines paint the mindset of Colonel Moran awesomely. If he is reading Watson's reports, Sherlock Holmes better be on the alert. :)

Yes, Colonel would be very, very revengeful.

Thanks for commenting.

I do like the way your Colonel Moran thinks.

There are still a few stories left - I hope he has the opportunity to reappear.

I hope he has the opportunity to reappear.
Frankly, I hope not, but, oh, he will. He will manage it somehow, sooner or later. He sort of haunts around my mind right now.
