Here are some text conversations between adult Mycroft and Sherlock, all short and written as soon as they popped into my head. Please review! T for some mild swearing.

Sherlock?

Mycroft. How's your head cold? SH

Wrong, brother mine. Again.

Shut up. SH

Yet another piece of proof that I am the smart one. Think, Sherlock, it shouldn't be too much of a challenge for you. There are infinite reasons why I might not be able to talk, I might be suffering from an asthma attack, be in a church or other place of worship, just have had by tongue burned, cut or stung by an insect…

Why am I needed? SH

Nice change of subject…I merely wanted to wish you birthday greetings.

I hate birthdays. So boring. SH

I know.

Of course you would. SH

That was 30 years ago, Sherlock.

You still owe me for that little incident. SH

Oh, grow up!
