The Resources of Mycroft Holmes by Charlton Andrews
THE RESOURCES OF MYCROFT HOLMES I.—H E REPUDIATES SHERLOCK:. R USHEM, the editor of The Daily Saffron, had sent for and employed me within twenty minutes after he received the following message, wireless, from his London correspondent: "Reason to believe interview could be had with Mycroft Holmes." When I had been shown the Marconigram, Rushem asked, "You are still disposed to desert the chair of history in your university to become a journalist. Professor Mustie?" I answered tersely in the affirmative. "You know who Mycroft Holmes is ?" I replied that he was the tall, corpulent, seven-year-older, and more nicely observing brother of Sherlock Holmes, who had first attained worldwide fame through Dr. Watson's account of his (Mycroft's) connection with "The Affair of the Greek Interpreter," who was a member of the singularly unsociable Diogenes Club, London, and who applied his extraordinary faculty for figures in auditing books in certain government departments, Whitehall. Rushem was pleased, as I had fully intended he should be, by my multum in parvo mode of exjjression. I think he impulsively added a ten to the salary he was about to propose: and I was employed on the spot. Behold me, therefore, seven days later, in the Strangers' Room of the Diogenes Club, Pall Mall, seated opposite Mycroft Holmes, in the gentle act of interviewing him. "Briefly, Mr. Holmes," said I, for the twentieth time mentally sizing him up to my combined satisfaction and mystification, "what my paper's readers want is to know whether there is any truth in the widespread rumours that you are setting up in competition with your brother, lately reappeared ?" Mycroft Holmes looked up sharply from his cigar-ash, in evident surprise and disappointment. "Softly, softly, my dear fellow," he expostulated at once; "this is scarcely the proper beginning if I remember—if I know myself. It is for me to speak first, I believe, and so we shall commence over." He drew his ponderous weight higher up in his arm-chair and fixed his narrow eyes on mine in a manner well calculated to be impressive. "In the first place," he continued at once, "it must be a source of some satisfaction to you, even though a citizen of a republic, to be aware that you are descended in an almost direct line from a king of France, that another of your forbears was for months the companion of a monarch of England, and that two other progenitors of yours fell at Waterloo, fighting on opposite sides." "Indeed, it is!" I acknowledged before I thought; and then, I frankly confess, I sprang up in the most intense amazement: I had come fully prepared for the usual demonstration of keen powers of observation and deduction, but I had certainly expected them to be applied to matters of the present or, at least, recent. So I did exactly what I had previously resolved not to do: I exclaimed in accents of extreme astonishment, "Mr. Holmes, this is marvellous! How on earth do you do it? "
Read the rest here. Tried to post the whole thing but there is a word limit, apparently.

Y’all. The possibility that a minor accident might’ve contributed to being one of the major Easter eggs pointing to Layla becoming the Scarlet Scarab, is pretty damn high 😮
