Characters/Pairings: Mycroft Holmes & Sherlock Holmes, Eurus Holmes (referenced) Rating: G Word count: 3,900 Warnings/contents: family issues, brotherly love, kidlock Notes: Inspired by @redbuttonhole, who asked why Mycroft didn't just tell Sherlock who Redbeard was. This brought up a related question that's always bothered me, which is why Mycroft chooses to remind Sherlock of Redbeard on the day of John's wedding, which could be seen as - in my opinion, uncharacteristically - cruel. This fic may or may not provide satisfactory answers, but I still liked the idea enough to write it. Summary: “So…” Sherlock glanced at him, then away, staring sightlessly out the window, “…does that mean I’ll go crazy too?" Eurus' song is ended, but her melody lingers on. Read at AO3.

Title: Tales Before Bedtime Characters/Pairings: Mycroft Holmes & Eurus Holmes, Mycroft Holmes/Sherlock Holmes (referenced) Rating: PG-13 Word count: 3,900 Warnings/contents: family issues, referenced incest Notes: Everything I've written since S4 ended has felt just a little bit off, which I suppose isn't that surprising - I think it threw me for a loop. Which is to say, this is weird, but I'm posting it anyway. Summary: Missing scene from The Final Problem. With Sherlock and John safely unconscious, Mycroft and Eurus find time for a little chat. Read at AO3.

Sherlock and John interrupt Mycroft’s meeting with prime minister. :p Original BBC video is (X)
Stepping into original author waters
Hello! I’m taking my first step into the original author game with my book Box 1663, available as an ebook on Amazon.
You can also visit my website, alexsorel.com, which also serves as my new tumblr, and follow me if you wish! I’m hoping to make it mostly original content in the form of short essays.
This is exciting and nerve-wracking for me! :D :D I’m not out of the fanfic game by any means, though. I’m looking forward to beginning my Fandom Trumps Hate story for @sundayduck very soon!
With a brother like Sherlock, who needs enemies?
Just a selection of the many, many, many times of Sherlock having a go at undermining Mycroft’s sanity.

No one interrupts film noir night
The ever lovely @enigmaticpenguinofdeath commissioned me to fix the whole clown business in cartoon Mycroft style, so I did just that and it was very cathartic thank you bless you

I can’t help but feel that in their own strange way Sherlock and Mycroft were saying goodbye and I love you in case they didn’t survive the blast in this scene.

High School Fashion, 1969
What a trip.
Wow these photos are stunning
Some of these outfits are the raddest things I’ve ever seen.
Can we talk about the tights.
The existence of photos like these (and similar photos from the 70s and 80s and so on) makes me wonder yet again why current-day movies set in this time never seem to be able to get the hair and clothing right.
Dang did I miss my era, hair-wise–that long heavy really straight thing is what my hair does on its own!
What I find interesting is how many of those outfits would get you dress-coded now, and would have when I was in high school in the 1990′s–those short-shorts and short dresses and bared midriffs were all verboten at my high school!
Do you know any good holmescest fics?
Hey sweetie, I do have a collection of titles . . .
Holmescest
Holding Patterns bydaasgrrl, 9 k, mature. Weird little Holmescest and Sherlock/ Pressure fic.Mycroft calls in Martin Crieff for a late night visit because he reminds him somuch of Sherlock who is missing post-Reichenbach Falls. Erotic and edgy.
When You’re Highby taylorpotato, 2 k, explicit. Hot little phone sex PWP. Unilock. Holmescest.The interaction between the characters remains in the realm of fantasy, easilydismissed as another case of “drunk dialing” and yet, things are taken to newplaces with this call. (Locked to AO3users.)
Imperfect Bodies, Exquisite Mindsby taylorpotato, 6 k, explicit. Holmescest. Sherlock is genderfluid movingbetween being male and female. Without meaning to, Mycroft falls into arelationship with “them.” Starts underage, and remains oddly sweet. (Locked toAO3 users.)
Collapsing Skies(and the taste of regret) by taylorpotato, 2 chapters. Underage familyvacation funtimes that leads to Sherlock trying to delete his attraction toMycroft. Hot. Holmescest. Obviously porn. (Locked to AO3 users.)
Kindred spirits seriesby daasgrrl, 3 parts, explicit. Sherlock drifts away from his relationship withMycroft to John. Explores the relationship between the brothers so amazinglywell – the push and pull of power-play, and love. Hot, and such wonderfulexploration of the characters and what they are to each other. Ties in nicelywith canon.
Asteroidea seriesby etothepii (Stochastical) – 3 part series crossover with His Dark Materials(Golden Compass) universe. Mycroft and Sherlock are unusual in world where allhumans have daemons. When John and his dog daemon, Kali, move in with hisbrother Sherlock, they are very confused at his missing daemon. Eventually Johncomes to realize the Holmes brothers’ secret. Both weird and sweet.
Dulce et Decorum estPro Fratre Vivere by thequeergiraffe, 15 k, mature. This is a wonderfulback story on the Holmes boys from Mycroft’s POV. Slips around behind canon andgave great predictions for series 3 – many of which proved to be true. There isattraction but no action on the Holmescest. So well written.
Cake and Other Sins by Indybaggins, 100 k, explicit.Really interesting OT3 between John, Sherlock and Mycroft. An AU with the GreatBritish Bake-Off. John and Sherlock meet when they are both competing in a tvbaking competition. Mycroft remains a presence in Sherlock’s life watching andprotecting him. Flashbacks and events unfold of the complicated relationshipSherlock and Mycroft have had for years. Sex, love, food, and regret are allmixed together in this well-written, sexy, fascinating tale.
If by Iwantthatcoat,2 k, explicit. Based on bbckinkmeme prompt: “However much the both of themmight want it, Mycroft is very resistant to doing anything sexual with Sherlockuntil Sherlock discovers that Mycroft would be perfectly willing to ________,because it doesn’t count.” This is a 5 +1, but actually is more like a1+5… a prequel with five different outcomes, all involving different“doesn’t count” scenarios. Yeah. Right.
Westermarck, Refutedby etothepii (Stochastical), 4 k words, explicit. Sherlock crawling into Mycroft’s bed forcing asexual relationship that’s been brewing for years. Bit of a dalliance untilmummy finds out.
Armistice by entanglednow, 3 k, explicit. OT3 –John/Sherlock/Mycroft. John feels like a foreign country that Sherlock andMycroft are fighting over. Nice little PWP – very hot three-way.
My Gift to Giveby dorothydonne, 2 k, explicit. PWP. Omegaverse. When Alpha!Mycroft comes hometo visit, he is very much surprised by his brother in his bedroom one nightbegging Mycroft for release. It turns out that Sherlock is not the Betaeveryone thought, but a late-blooming omega. Hot and very consensual. No angstor dubcon here. The brothers help each other out.
The Physics ofPresent Tense by paxlux. 36k, mature. This is a long sweeping epic of astory that details the Holmes brothers from their very beginning and onthroughout their lives. Almost a prose poem, this fic follows Mycroft’s lonelychildhood, and his protective intense bonds with his younger brother. The wholerelationship is a beautiful, twisted tapestry and while others eventually jointheir little circle the brothers remain as always in orbit around each other.Thumbs up – this was amazing.
Snookered byAnarfea, 10 k, explicit. Mycroft snookers Sherlock on the billiards table. Ordoes Sherlock snooker Mycroft?
