    Summary

    It felt like ages. Both sitting eerily still together on Greg's sofa, in his cozy warm flat, watching each other with wide eyes.

    This should have been completely different, this should have been explosive and, and passionate! Absolute ecstasy! Of course it wasn't though. Not with Mycroft's ridiculous, useless body!

    Summary

    A few encounters between Mycroft Holmes and Greg Lestrade.

    Greg is so, so drunk. So drunk. And it’s all Mycroft Holmes’ fault. Everything is the fault of one Holmes or another, why not this? Mycroft, with his umbrella, and his legs and his…legs.

    Summary

    This is more of me trying to work through how Sherlock's attitudes to sex look To Me.
    I am aware that many of you don't buy canon Sherlock's sexual celibacy. I tend to work with it a lot, and I really like trying to develop a character who makes sense of both ACD Sherlock and modern BBC Sherlock. This is more modern Sherlock--ACD's Sherlock is less alarmed by sex, but more misogynistic about women than BBC's Sherlock.

    In the end this is probably most about how sex has somehow become something that cuts Sherlock off from other people, rather than binding him to them.

    I continue to feel there is something between the brothers that reads as a rejection of Mycroft's sexuality by Sherlock. Given their ages I still think it seems possible that Sherlock learned a bit too much a bit too graphically, at an age when boys are still quite squeamish, and during an era where Teh Gay was far more wrapped in fear.

    Summary

    Mycroft has always been the man that others have needed him to be. Shedding those long-held expectations was never going to be anything but difficult — but Sherlock knows him best, and will give Mycroft everything he needs.

    With Sherlock and Mycroft both dedicated to making their relationship work, no challenge is too great to be overcome.
