Some Mystrade Recs Part 4
After a rather painful night, Mycroft Holmes and Sherlock Holmes are kicked out of their home. Without money, their only choice is to live in a downtrodden flat. With Mycroft struggling for enough money, they live on a week-to-week basis. However, when he meets a rather handsome officer at the coffee shop where he works, will Mycroft be forced to swallow his pride and admit that, maybe, just maybe, he needs help?

-Christmas Staircase by OtakuElf
Smells often remind us strongly of the past. To Mycroft, there is one particular scent that reminds him of an important Christmas. [Oneshot. Part 2 of a series. Part 1 multi-chapter and unfinished, I didn't read that part.]
-The Sum Of Our Failings by Evith Winter Grey (wintergrey)
Mycroft Holmes unexpectedly finds himself in possession of an infant girl on of a terrible day in which his potentially infinite fallibility haunts him and someone innocent pays the price for a cascade of failures committed by numerous people—the sum of which is as terrible and as hopeful as could be imagined.
Active case involves a serial killer. Story includes death of peripheral characters, reference to an off-screen suicide, and unvarnished, though brief, description a murder scene. No sexualized violence, no child death, no on-screen violence.
-Five Lunches by Evith Winter Grey (wintergrey)
Or, really, four lunches, one dinner, a lie-in, and a fifth lunch. [ oneshot ]
-Successful Ventures by Dreig
Mycroft Holmes attends all the right events, knows all the right people and wears a suit like a set of armour. If Sherlock is to be believed, he is also the British Government. In his free time, however, he drops the upper class persona and prefers a simple life. When his relationship with DI Lestrade takes a more intimate turn he is unsure of how to share this side of himself. [ 6/6 ]
Gregory Lestrade had always considered himself to be somewhat boring. Pedestrian. Predictable. For lack of a better term, vanilla.
And then he met Mycroft. [ oneshot ]
