    Summary

    Gregory laughed. “I like it,” he said. “You’re a looker in every universe, Mycroft Holmes.”

    It was the sort of thing Gregory might have said in his own time, and it sent a spark of annoyance through Mycroft. Then, self-pity; it occurred to him that he might never see the version of Gregory—indeed, the world—he knew again. He wanted to be angry, but he was just tired. “Please don’t say that,” he said.

    “Why not? It’s true.”

    “I am not my brother,” Mycroft said. “I do not believe in hearing the truth to the exclusion of all else. Or what you believe to be true.”

    Summary

    Betrayed by Mycroft Holmes within his own marriage, Greg was profoundly disappointed. He did not rage; he simply felt something inside him close down.

    Yet Christmas has a habit of delivering gifts to those who have endured with quiet decency. And Greg received a Mycroft from a parallel world.

    A wholly different Mycroft. A solitary man. A man who, in certain unguarded moments, resembled Greg far more than he resembled the formidable figure of Whitehall.

    Loneliness recognised loneliness before words could properly form. Those who have been betrayed do not require elaborate explanations. And so, they found their way to one another.

    [One only truly learns to cherish something after having lost it.
    It is only in loss that one understands how precious it was to have held it at all.]

    Summary

    He woke up locked in a room. It would be a dungeon if not for the sounds of the underground trains speeding by. He quickly loses track of the days. His only thoughts are of living long enough for his friends to free him.

    They only had the one night together. It quickly becomes a fleeting memory in his confused mind, but a memory that he holds on too.

    His last wish isn’t even survival, it's just to see Mycroft one last time before he’d eaten alive by the rats that are circling him. Through it all he has one companion, a small cat that protects him even when he can't tell what's real and what's not.

    Summary

    Since it's Christmas I thought we needed (even more) Mystrade Christmassy goodness so this was born. And because it's our boys it does not go according to plan, mostly because Mycroft is an idiot and Greg is scared of being deported and Mycroft is sarcastic and Greg enjoys pissing him off way too much. This will probably be three or four chapters and I'll hopefully get it all uploaded over the next couple of days.

    Summary

    Greg never expected to get caught in the crosshairs of a smuggling operation, but when a routine raid goes sideways, he finds himself recovering from a gunshot wound and facing an unexpected complication - Mycroft Holmes. The older Holmes brother takes a peculiar interest in both the case and Greg's well-being, setting off a tense, reluctant partnership that blurs the lines between professional and personal.

    As the investigation into an underground network of arms and information smuggling unfolds, Greg and Mycroft are forced to rely on each other, navigating a dangerous web of deception, power plays, and shifting allegiances. Between stakeouts, interrogations, and unwelcome surprises, their dynamic evolves from mutual irritation to something far more complex - something neither of them is quite prepared for.

    But with powerful enemies closing in and betrayals lurking in the shadows, Greg must decide just how much he’s willing to risk.

    Summary

    Mycroft Holmes has his own special way to reduce stress: watching others during their most intimate moments while remaining himself at a safe distance fills him with a sense of power and superiority. It works wonderfully, until one day, a familiar face appears in his small, healing world, and tips it upside down.
