Creating a pinned post to list my recent longer fics. Enjoy! 😃
Updated on February 10, 2025
It’s All By Design (8 chapters; 7,344 words: M)
Since he first laid eyes on the handsome, kind, thoughtful man Mycroft had wanted… more. However, Mycroft couldn’t risk being too friendly or too familiar given how closely Sherlock worked with the Detective Inspector. He was afraid of upsetting the balance of all their relationships if he attempted to pursue Gregory Lestrade. Retirement, however, changes things, he realized.
One Bed At A Time (7 chapters; 7,664 words; M)
Mycroft and Greg were briefly in an intimate relationship around the time of Greg's divorce. Mycroft broke it off and they remained cordial colleagues, with a lot of unresolved tension. Two years later, they are roaming Europe trying to catch up with Sherlock to bring him home in time for Mummy's 75th birthday. As they close in on Sherlock, a series of unfortunate events find Greg and Mycroft stuck sharing a room, with only one bed. Mycroft is beginning to wonder if the universe is trying to tell them something. Greg is pretty sure it is. Will they catch up to Sherlock and get back in time for Mummy's birthday? Will Mycroft and Greg finally sort themselves out? Is anyone going to have time to shop for Mummy's birthday present? Which leads to this corollary, what do you get a 75 year old woman who just wants her children to be happy?
Epiphany (8 chapters; 9,276 words; E)
Last Christmas Greg Lestrade separated from his wife for good. The holidays now have become a time to be endured. Mycroft Holmes wishes only to help his friend, any way he can.
Made For Loving You (5/12 chapters, WIP; M)
Twelve vignettes, one for each month, featuring Mycroft Holmes and Greg Lestrade, happily married and living their best life together.
Mind the tags and rating. They will change as appropriate.
Under The Mistletoe (3 chapters, 3,914 words; T)
Five times Greg Lestrade stood under the mistletoe hoping Mycroft Holmes would kiss him, one time he did not.
