Argh! What have I done? My Mystrade Valentine AU is finished and ready to go. Less than a week and counting! It’ll be up on Monday 19th. Well done to everyone who is taking part, and massive thanks to @mottlemoth for organising it. So much lovely Mystrade to enjoy for the whole of February. I am already loving the ones that are already up.

*cries quietly in a corner* WHY can I not write SHORT stories…? This is an epic. Everyone so far seems to have written relatively medium sized one chapter stories that don’t take eons to read. They’re all lovely. Mine? It’s now six chapters AND an epilogue? And now the epilogue has an epilogue! Where did all this come from? Why can I never write a small neat tidy tale? You know, boy meets boy, angst, humour, more angst, boy rescues boy, they fall for each other, kiss, happy ever after, the end… But no, I have to write a 40k word novella in a month and neglect all my other WIPs. And juggle real life… *sighs heavily*

Anyway, it goes by the name of Bonfire Heart. I love the song by James Blunt, and somehow it fits these two. The story is one I’ve had knocking round since I watched ‘To Be First’, ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0965231/ ) starring Rupert Graves as Doctor Christiaan Barnard, the first surgeon to perform a successful heart transplant back in 1967. Add to that the images of a hospitalized Sherlock in The Lying Detective and Last Vow, and also add a smattering of House, which was a Sherlock AU anyway. It’s not actually a Valentine, not until the very end and almost unintentionally, but hearts play a prominent role.

WARNING: Probably won’t be suitable for those who are a bit squeamish, it’s a medical AU with procedures described as best I can (considering I am not a doctor) with the research I can do on the internet. I have done my level best to be accurate but I might have taken a bit of license for the sake of drama. So if operations, blood, needles and hospitals squick you out, be warned. It’s also a bit whump on both Sherlock and Mycroft. On the upside, I would definitely not object if my doctor looked like Mr Graves.

Synopsis: Greg is the Senior consultant cardiothoracic surgeon in charge of heart transplant patient, Sherlock Holmes’, care. Mycroft is Sherlock’s mysterious older brother and a prominent member of the governing board for the private hospital Greg works in. Detective Inspector John Watson is Sherlock Holmes’ partner but Mycroft seems determined to keep John and his brother apart. Greg must juggle his own problems with those of his patient in order to make sure Sherlock’s anxieties are settled but what is it about Mycroft that rings alarm bells in Greg’s head? Can he thaw the Iceman’s heart and help his brother to recover, and even save Mycroft from himself?
