Despite everything, he can't help the smile on his face as he takes the slow, pleasant walk up the driveway. Tom is just so... well, cute.

On reflection, not doing anything about that smile was probably a tactical error.

So. Alec Carrow.

Sherlock is aware that social boundaries apply to this situation, and that he is currently breaking them all. He doesn't much care. He is wholly capable of discretion, but he is not at all capable of remaining ignorant in the first place.

Start with finding the obituary. Work from there. How did he die? When?

(Tony doesn't know about the conversation with Alyce. Tony doesn't know about a lot of things. Tony has been spending more time than usual ensconced in his workshop with the door locked, hacking Stark Industries records like he doesn't remember that Jarvis won't keep secrets between the two of them. Sherlock is a little surprised that it seems Tony was on the level about arming him more formidably.)

Tom Riddle and Bellatrix Black have astonishingly unblemished records at Sunnydale High for two such shady characters. In fact, given his first and so far only conversation with them, Sherlock concludes from the available data that they must have conducted a deliberate campaign of projected innocence while at school.

Well, he already knew they could be quite subtle.

No doubt they will make their opening move any day now. He politely asks Jarvis for a little help with the necessary research; Sherlock does the field work, and Jarvis looks up common and uncommon curses on the Internet. After last month's accident with the ghost of Nikola Tesla, Tony has set up the whole house as a magical Faraday cage, but Sherlock has no intention of hiding under his bed until Riddle finds a way to disrupt the shielding. It will protect Tony from any incidental effects and that is quite enough.

Speaking of which, he decides that informing Tony of his latest adventure can just wait a little while longer. Say, until after he has found some students of their year at the Bronze who are willing to reminisce. He could ask Tony, but Tony has all the social memory of a goldfish. If he can't remember the names of the women he's dated he will not remember anything useful about these two.

Sherlock Holmes, after a fashion
