Hi! Can I request platonic hcs of the Moriarty Bros interacting with a student of William's who got caught up in the whole "crime lord" thing and ended up joining their crew? I think it'd be neat. Thank you in advance!
A/n: aaaa this is my first moriarty the patriot story so I hope that it’s to your liking! Also i noticed that you didn’t exactly specify a gender for the student and considering he teaches in a private all male’s academy ion know imma use the rules of fiction and use a gender neutral reader/student anyways enjoy!
pairing: moriarty brothers with a platonic g/n student
word count:
Headcanons:
you were an insider
just like Fred your jobs consist of going undercover and gathering information
Just like any other student in the academy William taught at you had quite the status, a socialite from a well known family
Coming from a family with a rather big name and that sort of status held its benefits which means you had access to information about various inside affairs and business
and since you come from a respectable family that made you quite the spy because nobody would really suspect that the “kind (l/n) family heir would do such a thing”
at first you had ended up becoming an unofficial member after Lucian’s case and continued to be the Moriarty’s eyes and ears
but after an incident with another rival business that ended with your family dead, William generously offered his services of revenge
after all that's transpired you ended up as a member to the moriarty crew
A real valued member at that
To say the Moriarty brothers are fond of you would be an understatement cause they treat you like a younger brother/sister
With Albert
Now Albert has always been a family man
He loves his brothers a lot and dotes on them from time to time but more often than not he feels a bit dejected now that his brothers are now so grown up
and when the addition of you joining the crew he was delighted to see a fresh face
There isn’t really much of an age gap between him and his brothers because they were around his age when they met but with you oh boy
10 year age gap lezzgeddit
He’ll use this as an opportunity to spoil you to make up for not being able to do that to William and Louis
He’d send you post cards, gifts and little trinkets
He regrets that he has to work in an office
Albert loves it when you ramble about anything
It makes him feel soft that you trust him with your thoughts and even secrets
With William
Ever since the gang took you in and you moved out of the dorms expect to get culture shocked
William at home and William in school are two different people
There's this strict rule of separating school life and home life mostly because he wants to keep it professional
will occasionally join you for lunch doe
It also feels weird not calling him Professor at home
Tutors you loads and sometimes laughs at your misery and failed attempts in answering math problems
He’s also really quite good in teaching other subjects like science, english, history and etc.
kinda feels unreal
finds it funny when you rant about school too and sometimes he’d give his two cents on some teachers or other students you find annoying
With Louis
He’s soft that he has a new younger sibling around
Boy is so used to being the youngest but now he has a younger sib around cue shocked Pikachu face
He’d spoil you the most out of all the brothers
Bakes you extra cookies cause why not
tries not to be obvious about it
He’d ask you how school is going all the time even though he could literally ask William
He knows he isn’t much compared to his brothers but it warms his heart whenever you both hangout
He also is the best listener and secret keeper in the household so you’d go to him to rant all the time
He’d get worried when you get assigned to do missions and would ask if you’d like him to accompany you
Rating: T for violence, horror, kidnapping, and death. Please be aware of any possible triggers in regards to being kidnapped and their reaction.
SHERLOCK MASTERLIST
Sherlock Headcanons
P A N I C
This guy is full on frantic. We’re talking shaky hands, wild eyes, meaner than usual, quick to snap, and pacing furiously in his mind palace.
And if, goodness forbids, he knows you’re being harmed—
Oh it’s simply unthinkable to him why anyone would ever want to hurt you. He is furious. His eyes will be burning with absolute rage and hatred.
He is going to find you. He’s not going to be showy about it because he is beside himself with worry.
All he wants is for you to be safe in his arms again.
So he will find you. If he needs to ask for help he will do so. He’s not going to let his pride get in the way of your safe return.
When he finds you if you’ve been injured his first priority will be getting you to a hospital. You will be his number one concern and focus. You, above all else, need to be safe and okay.
You’re gonna get a full police escort. You’ll be heavily guarded by Mycroft’s men. You’ll be protected 24/7 until the monster who took you is apprehended, or dead.
Once he knows you’re safe—and you better believe he’s kissing you all over and squeezing you so tightly it hurts a little bit—then his next goal is to hunt.
He will not rest until the bastard who harmed you is dead, or thrown into the darkest pit and forgotten.
N o t h i n g will stop him.
Tbh he’ll probably be a little dramatic about his hunt for vengeance and y’know he’s gonna psychologically harass / torture that sonuva for a good bit. He wants that monster to suffer for what s/he did.
Sherlock’s smart enough to know how to hurt someone without leaving a trace.
When the deed is done (and how messed up the villain is will be directly proportionate to how much s/he harmed you) he’ll return to your side and hold your hand tightly.
He won’t be letting you out of his sight any time soon.
100% has your back through the recovery. If you have to deal with PTSD, or other long-term effects from the traumatic experience he will do his absolute best to accommodate you.
He’s not the best at comforting, but he will be doing extensive research in how to handle night-terrors and flashbacks. He has some experience with John, but John’s relatively well-adjusted and knows how to self-comfort.
If you need anything he will do everything in his power to provide it.
Will never rush your recovery time. He might push you to try things if he honestly thinks it will help, but he will immediately back out if he sees it’s too much.
So many hugs and kisses after nightmares.
All the love and support this bby boy can provide will be yours.
“I’ll protect you. I swear.”
Mycroft Headcanons
Hurrrk.
This hurts.
Right in the chest.
He’s left breathless when he discovers you’ve been taken. His vision will literally tilt as his whole world loses balance. The pure fear he feels for you in that one moment is staggering.
Then he’s repressed it and he’s all cold fury and meticulous planning.
He’s going to find you.
He’s going to kill anyone who hurt you. It will not be an easy death, either.
He’ll use every bit of resource, power, and money he has in order to guarantee your safe return (and eventual demise of whoever took you).
If, goodness forbid, that monster hurt you—
Mycroft will have never felt so furious in his entire life. It would not be out of the question for Mycroft to personally see to that bastard’s torture.
When he finds you he will take you to a safe house with the best security he could provide, along with a therapist on standby and several doctors.
He will stay by your side and leave it to his subordinates (and Sherlock) to hunt down the monster who took you.
Mycroft’s priority is you, and your well-being.
When that villain is found s/he will be put to death. Mycroft will not chance a repeat. How long s/he suffers before death will be dependent on how much s/he harmed you.
Mycroft will hold you tightly in his arms and gently kiss your forehead.
Beyond supportive of any after-effects you have to go through after your experience. He’s well-versed in psychological traumas so will be super helpful in coaxing you down from flashbacks or night terrors.
Whatever you need he will provide.
Absolutely no judgement for however long it takes for you to recover.
Everyone heals and processes things differently and what you went through was awful.
He only wants you to be happy, healthy, and safe.
”I will keep you safe, my dear.”
Moriarty Headcanons
Oh. My. God.
Heads are rolling. Buildings will crumble. The whole world is gonna be thrown into terror if someone dared to take you.
Not only will you be found the very day you’re taken—because hello, Criminal Mastermind who controls the underground—but you can bet your sweet ass that he’s gonna be in a right furious mood for a good while.
He will make that monster plead for death by the time he’s done with ‘em. Moriarity won’t stop there, though. Oh, no. He has to make a statement. He will not let this be a repeat.
He’ll be meticulous. Every person that was friends, family, or colleagues with this monster will be taken out in a brutal fashion.
The place you were taken from? Burned to the ground.
The place you were held captive? Blown to smithereens.
Those that failed to protect you? Buried alive.
He is gonna make the world feel just as terrified and vulnerable as he felt when you were taken. He wants the world to suffer as much as he had.
If, goodness forbids, you were harmed—
For every scratch, or bruise on your body is another city that’s gonna suffer.
(Of course there’s a good chance you’ll be able to curb the worst of his anger with reassurances that you’re fine, and that you love him, and no of course you don’t blame him for getting kidnapped. Maybe he won’t ruin entire cities. Maybe he’ll just create a few dozen serial killers and set them loose.)
He’s gonna be overly protective of you for years to come.
You are his whole world and the thought of ever losing you horrifies him.
He’ll be reluctant to leave your side any time soon.
You definitely won’t be able to leave his safe house with heavily armed guards for a good long while.
Lots of cuddles and kisses.
He’ll keep therapists and doctors on standby. He’ll be extremely supportive of any PTSD, or after-effects you have to go through from your kidnapping.
(It may trigger a few of his own night terrors, though, so please be aware)
He wanted an extravagant wedding and he got one. He was excited for the whole thing, even if marriage wasn’t really the thing he was excited about.
He was as suave as ever when he gave his vows and said I do. Even if they were… unique and nontraditional, you still loved them. They were uniquely Jim.
The man can dance. He’s quick on his feet and smooth in his movements. It’s a good thing you can keep up.
You may not know a lot of people present at the wedding (they’re all of Jim’s “friends” from work and you tend to stay away from that aspect of his life) but you make the best of it. Jim does his best to be accommodating, even if he is a bit distracted by his guests at time.
A tender moment was captured on camera; Jim had wrapped his arms around your waist from behind, nuzzing his face into your neck as you tried to talk to someone.
Jim doesn’t side with the good or the bad. He likes to interfere with both and cause a little chaos and watch everyone crumble.
In fairytales the hero wins and the villain dies but Jim is not drawn to that kind of pattern. He wants to see hero’s fall and villains rise and he wants the world to obey a power that is stronger than everything:
The power of mind, the power of imagination that can do far more than one single person.
That’s why lives don’t matter to him. Even if a person dies -ideas and thoughts will live on and evolve
The prompt(s): Fighting / Making up, Unconscious habits, Kissing
Rating: K+
SHERLOCK MASTERLIST
FIRST PROMPT
Sherlock
Passive-Aggressive-ia is a faraway land and Sherlock is their king.
He’s snippy and snarky when he argues with you. He’ll hardly ever raise his voice, but he’ll speak quickly and use cutting words. If he’s angry enough he will say whatever it takes to hurt you. And he will always succeed.
He’s stubborn, too. He won’t ever want to admit he’s wrong, and in the rare event that he is he’ll try to brush past it.
(It would be best not to poke his wounded ego in this case because he’ll sulk for weeks)
You’ll probably have to be the bigger person for 80% of the arguments. Even if you’re in the right in the heat of the moment he won’t want to give in.
(When you’re right he will come around, but you’ll need to be patient)
When he hurts you during your arguments he’ll regret it almost immediately. He doesn’t actually want to hurt you, but he can’t help himself when he’s that upset. He’ll apologize in his own way: complimenting you, leaving little treats around the flat for you, playing your favorite song on the violin. He won’t come out and say he’s sorry—not unless it’s really bad—but he’ll make the small, but meaningful gestures.
Making up means hugging. He won’t initiate the hug, but he’ll want you to and he’ll awkwardly—but happily—embrace you in return.
Sherlock’s quick to move on. If you say you’re ready to move past the argument then he is, too. He doesn’t like to dwell on unpleasant things and while he won’t forget the argument, he’s more than ready to forgive it.
If he hurt you too badly he’ll be shyer around you. He’ll be worried that he’s scared you off, so he’ll actively try to be nicer around you. He loves you and he never wants to lose you.
You’ll have to reassure him.
If you need something from him for comfort all you have to do is ask.
Mycroft
He is cold.
He doesn’t raise his voice to you. You’ll never see him red with anger. If you’ve angered him enough he’ll put distance between the two of you. He will be cold, cutting, and ruthlessly efficient in shoving you out of his life for however long it takes for him to forgive you.
You won’t get a chance to apologize until he’s ready to hear it.
When he is ready to make up, he’ll still retain some distance. He will allow you to make the first move, unless he’s in the wrong.
If he’s in the wrong he will come to you with flowers and a sheepish, small, smile.
If you’re the one who needs to apologize he’ll give you one chance.
Taking the chance will warrant everything be brushed aside and he’ll warm up to you again.
Rejecting the chance will effectively end the relationship. He doesn’t have the time or energy to waste on a struggling relationship.
Making up means forehead kisses. It means late night dinners, and murmured apologies.
If he’s in the wrong he’ll be extra attentive towards you as if to compensate for his error.
He won’t hold grudges, and won’t be with someone who does.
Forgive and move on.
Moriarty
Oooh boy.
He has two types of anger, and there’s no telling which way he’ll react in arguments. He’s either going to explode instantly to end the argument, or he will get glacier cold and abruptly leave you.
Explosive anger can be scary, not gonna lie. He’ll yell, throw things, and will actively try to intimidate you into submission. The best way to handle him will be to remain calm, and if you feel threatened it’d be best if you left and let him calm down. He won’t ever stop you from leaving (unless you did something truly bad like… cheat on him with Sherlock).
Cold anger is dangerous, though, because it means payback. He may not take it out on you, but you can definitely expect some poor fool to die in an ultimately pointless and painful manner. Cold rage means he’ll be distant from you, curt, and will say absolutely horrible things to you.
Arguing with him while he’s angry is pointless and dangerous. Don’t do it. Let him cool down, or give him time to move past it.
He’s definitely a grudge holder.
If you’re in the wrong, then once he’s calmed down it would be best if you apologized right away. Since you’re his S/O he’ll forgive you and want to move past it, but he won’t forget it. Try not to make the same mistake because he will use this argument against you in the future.
If he’s in the wrong he’ll go out of his way to apologize. You’ll wake up to a room filled with presents, and him opening his arms with a nervous smile on his face.
He has no issues saying he’s sorry when he needs to.
Regardless of who was in error he’ll spend more time with you thereafter for at least a week. He doesn’t like fighting with you.
(honestly it’d be best if you avoided big arguments with him to the best of your ability)
SECOND PROMPT:
Sherlock
Sherlock always fidgets with whatever is in his hands. He doesn’t think about it. He doesn’t even realize he’s doing it half the time. If someone puts something in his hands and he gets lost in his thoughts his fingers will move on their own.
Mrs. Holmes has been able to get Sherlock to knit doing this.
She slipped in some knitting sticks and yarn while he was off in his mind palace. Three hours later he’s got a somewhat mangled scarf halfway made.
He got better with practice.
She let John in on that little secret, so sometimes John will slip Sherlock more stuff to knit or fidget with when he zones out.
John loves his Sherlock-knitted sweaters.
Mycroft
Given Mycroft’s profession he strives to not have any obvious tells, or habits. If he realizes he’s developing a visible habit that can be used against him he will actively stop. When he was younger he used to tap his fingers when he was angry, or twitch his lips once before he had to fake a smile. Both of these habits he ruthlessly beat down.
The only thing he does repeatedly is a little tic he himself hasn’t noticed, yet.
He twirls his umbrella-sword every time he’s thought of something interesting. Not exclusively when he’s happy, or upset, but if anything’s caught his attention he’ll give it a whirl.
Moriarty
Moriarty fakes tics very well, but he himself doesn’t have any. Due to his career he understands how dangerous it can be to have such an obvious tell.
He fakes tapping his fingers when he’s angry with his clients. He’s hardly ever actually angry, but he wants them to think he’s angry whenever he taps his fingers.
He fakes fiddling with his phone when he’s nervous among “friends.”
He fakes anxious smiles very well—he’ll smile “anxiously” every time he feels like he’s in a bad position.
It’s easy to manipulate others when they think they have all of his tics figured out.
The look on their faces when they realize they were wrong is always priceless.
THIRD PROMPT:
Sherlock
Inexperienced.
This sort of thing never interested him prior to you, so he never bothered to really learn about it.
It’ll be stiff at first, and almost exclusively light pecks until he starts to feel comfortable.
Ofc this sweetie is a fast learner, so he’ll get good fast.
But his confidence will be shaky due to his inexperience. You’ll have to take the lead in the beginning until he gets the hang of things.
He’s a sweetie.
Mycroft
He’s naturally reserved by nature, so don’t expect any passionate kisses right away. He’ll prefer to stick to forehead kisses, or gentle pecks on the cheeks / lips.
Even in private he’ll be slow, and gentle. He’s not one to jump right in, he’s the type to savor the journey.
He’s a gentleman, so he’ll always be composed in public.
Overall he’s a very tender kisser, and you’ll definitely feel his emotions when he kisses you.
Moriarty
This guy is fierce.
He’s the literally-sweep-you-off-your-feet-and-spin-you-around fellow. He’s passionate in his kisses, no matter the place or audience.
He will not hold back.
When you’re kissing him he wants the whole world to melt away from you, and he will always succeed.
He’s like a little ball of fire and sun swooping you along for an adventure. Usually best to just sit tight and enjoy the ride.
The prompt: How do the boys handle summer vacation with their S/O?
Rating: K
SHERLOCK MASTERLIST
Sherlock Headcanons
Going on a summer vacation with Sherlock will be a struggle.
Mostly because he does not want to leave his beloved flat because the world is woefully boring.
Best way to entice Sherlock out on a vacation is to either 1.) go on your own and he’ll follow along like the lovesick puppy he secretly is or 2.) find an enticing case to lure him out. If doing the second be prepared for him to get heavily involved with the case and frequently sneak out to investigate. And possibly force John to come along.
That being said regardless of what happens when Sherlock is actually at the destination he’ll accompany you wherever you’d like to go (although if a case is involved he may leave halfway through and come back an hour later like nothing happened).
He may not be much of an activity person, but he loves you and wants you to be happy so he’ll indulge your desires with minimal fuss.
He’d enjoy seeing music shops, though. Especially one that handcrafts instruments like violins or violas.
His favorite part of the vacation will be seeing your happy face, though.
Going by train or boat will always be better than airplane. Sherlock gets antsy on planes and will be especially bratty if he has to be in close contact with strangers for a prolonged period of time.
If you absolutely do have to go by plane, be prepared to pay a little extra for roomier seats. Entirely worth it to prevent Sherlock snapping at someone and making them cry hysterically the whole way there.
He likes traveling by trains more than other mode of transportation because he likes to be able to move when he wants to.
Packs sparingly, only what he absolutely needs. This may or may not include his violin.
Will research the weather ahead of time.
Always prepared.
Mycroft
Mycroft isn’t that hard to persuade to take on a vacation, but it will be difficult to find an appropriate time with his work. It’ll definitely take months of planning in advance to coordinate it and a good amount of luck to make sure no huge disaster happens to cancel the trip.
He likes to take vacations in quiet, relaxing places. A lovely cabin in the mountains would be his ideal trip.
He detests crowded areas. If you want to go someplace bustling then he’ll of course come with you, but it’s really not his cup of tea.
That being said visiting authentic or local-exclusive restaurants will be his all-time favorite thing to do on vacation (aside from being with you, of course). He loves sampling and trying different kinds of foods.
Take him to a pastry shop and you will make his heart sing.
Inwardly, though. Outwardly he’ll smile at you that special kind of smile reserved just for you.
Big fan of indoor activities.
Please don’t make him go on roller coasters. They’re too… unclean and dull for him.
(Sherlock is enough of a roller coaster for him, thank you.)
He loves traveling by private jet.
Packs for everything.
“Why are you packing wolf repellent? We’re going to Paris.”
“You never know, my dear.”
Moriarty
Definitely the adventurous type when it comes to vacations. He lives for thrills and excitements, so a calm and relaxing vacation will make him lose interest pretty quick.
But he does love going to really gimmicky, or obvious tourist-attraction places and acting like a stereotypical tourist.
Plans parts of the vacation to surprise you, but doesn’t have every little detail planned out. Likes to be sporadic and random.
“Let’s go to Tokyo.”
“We just got to Paris?”
He loves shopping with you. Will buy anything and everything that catches your attention.
Definitely wants to explore everywhere you go.
Don’t be surprised if you wake up and he wants to go skydiving that morning.
Overall it’ll be a very energetic and probably exhausting (in a good way) vacation.
Likes to go by boats, surprisingly enough. If he can’t, then private jet is the only way to go. He hates traveling with strangers.
Doesn’t pack (except his phone). Buys everything when he gets there.
He easily gets jealous, but it’s rare that’s severe enough to warrant more than a passing thought. He’s not used to emotions—especially such a strong one such as love—so he doesn’t have the experience to handle them appropriately. It’s never his intention to hurt you, but sometimes his jealousy will come across like he doesn’t trust you.
It’s not that he doesn’t trust you, so much as he doesn’t trust anyone else. You’re his most precious person, after all, and he really doesn’t have a lot of people close to him. He doesn’t want to lose you, no matter what. And sometimes those feelings will manifest as jealousy.
Hell he’ll even feel jealous over animals that have your attention. Even if he knows that nothing will ever come about from it he’ll still get jealous for your attention; for your affection.
He’s easy to placate, though. Words and kisses are more than enough to remind him that you’re only in love with him and that’s him that you will come home to everyday.
But in the event that there’s someone persistent (for the sake of this headcanon let’s call them Homewrecker) …
He won’t outright say he’s jealous or that he doesn’t want you anywhere near Homewrecker, but he’ll constantly spew out cutting insults about him. He’ll repeatedly reiterate that he’s beneath you—beneath both of you, really—and question why on earth you would even bother to speak with Homewrecker let alone give him your time.
If he honestly thinks Homewrecker is a threat to your relationship he’ll take action.
Definitely gonna stalk you. Checks your phone, has one of his many people part of his network shadow you whenever you’re with Homewrecker.
He’ll confront Homewrecker about his feelings and intentions towards you and if the Homewrecker admits (willingly or not) that Homewrecker is in love with youthen Sherlock will insist neither of you two see each other anymore. He may or may not do this behind your back, depending on how much you indulge his behavior.
If he’s jealous over nothing (as in Homewrecker has no feelings towards you and never will) he won’t be too bad. He’ll make it a point to be publicly affectionate with you in front of Homewrecker, and have a firm arm around your waist.
He has a cute pouty face when he gets jealous.
If his jealousy ever gets out of hand, don’t worry, John and Mycroft will be there to talk sense into him. And if he hurts your feelings during a fit of jealousy he does his best to make up for it. It’s never his intention to hurt you, after all.
He just really new to this crazy thing called being in a healthy romantic relationship. Please be patient with him.
Now you being jealous of him…
That’s actually really flattering.
Sherlock’s used to being the one who gets jealous, so being on the other end of it feels kinda nice in the beginning.
You actually like him that much?
Really?
Well don’t worry nothing will happen.
He’ll placate you in an off-handed way. He’ll treat your jealousy in the most casual manner.
“As if I would spare more than a minute for someone so dull. Really, Y/N, you should know me better by now.”
You’re the only human in the world that makes him feel at peace.
Mycroft’s Jealousy
After the first couple of times of feeling What is this? Why does my stomach feel tight? he’ll get into the swing of things. The first couple of jealousy fits will have him uncharacteristically acting out, like snapping at the person involved and physically pulling you away from them. He’s never felt jealous before, after all, and all these emotions that come with love are incredibly strange and intimidating to the man.
But once he knows it’s jealousy and he’s gotten familiar with the feeling he won’t act out as much.
He’s pretty good at keeping his composure no matter the situation. There are times, of course, where he loses it (almost all of these cases happen because either you or Sherlock are involved), but it never lasts for more than a minute or two.
He’s not easy to get jealous, since he’s not much of a possessive man. Little things won’t bother him and the only way he’ll actually get jealous is if he views someone as a potential threat to your relationship
That being said he doesn’t like it when people touch you. He’s not a physically affectionate person in public, and thinks his S/O should be treated in a certain manner. Like royalty, really.
He’s okay with close friends or family hugging or holding you. Family can give you kisses on the cheek, no problem.
If a stranger or mere acquaintance tried to get physical with you, though… or goodness forbid kisses your cheek he’s going to get annoyed fast. He’ll be by your side within that instant with a hand on your waist and a cold smile on his face.
He’s not going to have nice things to say towards this punk either.
But once that idiot leaves then the jealousy’s gone and he feels abashed at how he acted. He trusts you—really he does—but sometimes he wants to be selfish with your attention.
He’ll apologize for his behavior.
But it’ll always happen. No matter how long you’re together he’ll always feel a bit selfish when it comes to your affections and who gets to touch you.
Now you being jealous over him...
Mycroft is the master of manipulation and part of that requires false compliments and mild flirting. He’s never sincere behind his motives (Mycroft will always be loyal to those he loves), but a certain level of deception is necessary in his line of work.
So you getting jealous is rather understandable, and he’s always quick to mollify you.
Even if you know he’d never cheat, you still hate seeing him like that with others.
But it’s all part of the job. You can’t stay too mad at him, and unfortunately it’s something you’d have to get used to.
Thankfully the flirting part is extremely rare and Mycroft largely uses intimidation, blackmail, and murder (sorry, removal of threats) to get his way, so your jealousy will be equally rare.
But when you do get jealous he’ll devote an evening to reminding you that you have absolutely nothing to be jealous about.
After all, you’re the only one who makes Antarctica feel warm.
Moriarty’s Jealousy
Pfft. If he gets jealous over you then he’ll take out the competition, no questions asked.
Besides, you’re with him, so what does it matter? Who cares about some nobody who tried to put the moves on you?
He’s simply playing his role in natural selection. Clearly the person was too stupid to live if he thought for even a millisecond someone as interesting as you would want to give your attention to someone as dull as him.
He’ll send out his men and drag the poor fool out of his home. If he’s in a good mood he might even use him as a pawn in his latest game with Sherlock (but he’ll set it up so the fellow dies no matter what’s done). If he’s in a poor mood then the death won’t be kind.
He’s sadistic, after all.
Afterwards, though, he’ll be attentive towards you. He’ll be demanding of your attention and affection. He’ll pamper you with his own undivided attention and take you out on some lovely dates.
He’ll work from home so that way he can spend more time with you, to remind you that he loves you more than anyone else could so don’t think for a second there can ever be someone else. He’ll treat you better than anyone else.
Subtle manipulations to make sure you believe that he’s the absolute best for you.
He’ll leave little marks on you, mostly hickeys. All of them with your consent, of course.
He’ll be happy if you wear his clothes for the next couple of days. Little gestures to display that you’ve given yourself to him, and whatnot (he’ll reciprocate an equal amount). Seeing you in his shirt will put him in a good mood.
Now you being jealous over him...
Oh my goodness that’s so cute
Like wow you’re so adorable! Thinking for an instant someone so b o r i n g would catch his attention.
Does it really bother you?
Do you want to kill them?
He’ll help.
It’ll be one of those fun activities couples do together. You get the gun, and he’ll get the shovel!
If you actually say yes to this he’ll be positively giddy. He’ll make over-dramatize it (we’re talking dressing up, buying out a theater, getting all kinds of “toys”, maybe an audience, definitely going to record it). It’ll be great fun for him.
