It is interesting to me to see how other people react to them. I have been greeting new arrivals with the Conductor on my shoulder.

Have you? Have they been shocked? Impressed? Intrigued?

[They could not possibly be frightened of such a cute little guy.]

Mostly those, yes. Only a couple have been actually afraid of the Conductor.

[ Joltik chirps sadly at that as he finishes, dropping the pen and hopping back up to Emmet's shoulder. ]

Who? Who could fear such a fine friend?

[SILLY PEOPLE, THAT'S WHO. Sholmes scoops up the paper, looks at it appraisingly, pleased.]

Yor is afraid. But she is also verrrry nice about it. She wrote the Conductor a letter. And she is trying. I know he appreciates that.

Ah, yes... I remember Mrs Forger looking utterly overwrought when we put on our concert. But she did try to be polite, so credit where it is due.

She always tries to be polite around him. It is sweet.

She does try very hard to be kind and polite, except when she is throwing a man into the sand. Still, I believe once she understands that Mr Conductor is a good friend and stalwart companion, there will be nothing to fear.

. . .

Did she throw you into the sand, Mr Sholmes?

Yes! Very hard! I am sure she left a Sholmes-shaped-impression behind!

…Though to be fair, I was trying to kidnap her.

So you deserved it.

No! Not at all! It was for bingo!

So you absolutely deserved it.

[He laughs.]

Perhaps only for a few seconds! I explained it to her after the fact, of course.

Good for her.

[Affably-]

Oh, yes. I would wish for no other outcome, if someone actually did attempt to kidnap her.

[rip this hypothetical person]

And they would absolutely deserve it. Yor really is amazing.

She is an invaluable member of Phoenix, this much is true. We would be quite lost without her.

Mm. She was the one who brought Flapjack to Yatagarasu when Hunter was possessed.

So I was told. Phoenix owes Yatagarasu quite a debt for your team's generosity. I hope Flapjack at least made for pleasant company.

Oh, he did. I would like to think that he and the Conductor are verrrry good friends now.

[ Joltik chirps in the affirmative. we're besties! ]

[Sholmes chuckles at that affirmative.]

Then I am glad something good came from all that horrid nonsense. Truly.

Really, it is no wonder the Conductor has so many threads.
