The Car – Lestrade/Anthea/Mycroft – 200 words
Greg really isn't sure how long they've been doing this anymore. Honestly, he isn't even sure what "this" is supposed to be. He's only met Mycroft Holmes twice outside of this car – once when they very first met, and a second time when Mycroft showed up in person at Greg's apartment to inform him that the car would be coming 'round for him the next day, and "there's no reason for you to be distressed; just get in the vehicle."
As predicted, the car had come the next day, and Greg had obediently climbed in. Mycroft had already been inside, along with a woman the detective inspector had never met outside of this car. Outside of this car, Greg knew she was called Anthea.
Inside the car, though… that was something else. They all became something else. Anthea became Lisa, the name whispered like a secret between the trio for reasons, protectiveness, that Greg was beginning to feel right along with Mycroft. Mycroft became… kind. Sweet. Human. As for Greg himself… he wasn't sure what he became around this pristine duo that was so inexplicably willing to let their guard down around him. He just knew that he liked it.
