⬡  Adcroft week!

By popular request, we’d like to introduce our first specific ship list!  And, starting at the top of the alphabet?

Adcroft!  The pairing of Mycroft Holmes/Irene Adler.

Since it’s for a specific ship, things are going to be a little different.  

Not only are we collecting for the Adcroft rec list (so make sure to send in your favourite fics!) but we’re also issuing a challenge!

At some point this week, try to submit a headcanon (any Adcroft submissions will be bumped to the top of the pile, of course!) ... 

Or you could create an aesthetic... or write a fic (and send it in, of course!) for this ship!

Submissions will be open until Friday evening, February 22, 2019.  

Lets see the Adcroft love!

secondhand -- Adcroft, please?

So this is short and quickly written and I’m only half awake with one cup of coffee in my system, so I hope it makes sense! Written to celebrate Adcroft being picked for showcase by @sherlockrarepairs !

From Something To Nothing And Back Again (An “In So Few Words” Story) - Mycroft ponders his curious relationship with Irene Adler over the years.

The room where she entertained her clients was not her actual bedroom, he had learned many years after the fact.

He had been in the room where she entertained her clients a few times, usually tied to the bed and at her mercy. Later they would go to her parlour for aftercare sessions, him in his shirt and trousers, no waistcoat, no tie, no jacket, her in a silk kimono that he had seen in Japan and thought she would like. He was surprised at the sentiment, that she would use the gift at all, let alone in his presence, but he appreciated the sentiment, just that once.

Eventually, as he went higher into the government circles and she began playing her dangerous game of secrets, their sessions came to an amenable end. He cared for her, perhaps even loved her, in his own way, but there would be no more. Sentiment is a chemical defect, after all, and he was made of steel and ice.

But later...after her infatuation with his brother brought her back into his orbit, he found steel had become malleable and ice had melted. Oh, it would always be that way with Irene, he realized, much to his dismay. When she got herself into trouble in Karachi, certain hints and clues were laid at Sherlock’s feet to find her; he’d have gone himself if it wouldn’t have amounted to an international scandal.

Oh, he knew she was alive. He knew she still fancied Sherlock, that his own sentiment seemed to be much like a secondhand piece of furniture now: used with love until it was no longer needed, then given away to someone who needed it more, but there was no one who needed him and therefore he was alone. Always alone, even though he might like not to be.

And then one night, a car waited for him, one that was not one of his regular cars. And she was in the back seat, waiting.

Sherlock loved another, this was a thing they both knew now, but what it meant for them, he didn’t know. It started with a conversation, an honest conversation between two usually dishonest people, and ended in a room he did not recognize, where he fell asleep next to her and woke up next to her, her hair spilled all over the pillow, a smile on her face.

He’d been allowed into her inner sanctum, it seemed, and for that, he was pleased. He wasn’t alone after all.

I could write out a massive list of all my ships. But the simpler, much more honest version is for me to say that I ship a somewhat emotionally stunted Mycroft Holmes with a character who happens to be thinking “Holy shit, Sherlock. THATS your brother?!”

What happens when The Woman meets The British Government?  This list aims to find out!

⬡　An Exercise In Trust (With Some Light Bondage Thrown In), by almostshadydelusion [rated M]

(Irene Adler/Mycroft Holmes) Irene needs Mycroft to trust her for this exercise to be enjoyable for the both of them.

⬡　From Something To Nothing And Back Again, by afteriwake [rated T]

(Irene Adler/Mycroft Holmes) Mycroft ponders his curious relationship with Irene Adler over the years.

⬡　Present, by harper330 [rated T]

(Irene Adler/Mycroft Holmes, Irene Adler/Jim Moriarty) It had been an abysmal day. It only seemed to be getting worse when Mycroft got a call from one of the last people he expected (or wanted) to hear from: Irene Adler.

⬡　A Proper Marriage, by afteriwake [rated G]

(Irene Adler/Mycroft Holmes) Mycroft and Irene meet at her cottage in Sussex after she nearly loses her head to reacquaint themselves; after all, it’s not very often that a husband nearly loses his wife twice in the span of a year. But Mycroft’s suggestion that they turn their informal marriage into a more proper one is surprising and, it turns out, something that pleases Irene very much.

[sherlockrarepairs]

Mycroft initially met Irene when she was just beginning in her business, and had he not begun a client relationship with her he would have considered recruiting her to the government for her ability to gain information.
