Dear Isabelle (Letters Universe)-

Dear Isabelle,

It has come by my attention that you have been writing my brother numerous letters. It has also come to my attention that he has been writing you back.
I'm afraid I must kindly request that you cease and desist this at once.

Thank you.

Dear Sherlock,

Hi! I'm sorry it took so long to reply, but I admit I needed a few days to uh, digest, your Email (Also, how did you get my Email address? Maybe it's better I don't know). You told me to stop but that's impossible. I don't know what Mycroft has told you (if anything) about our writing to each other, but we had a bit of a kerfuffle when I didn't write him back and… well. Anyways, my point is you'd have to hold me at gunpoint to make me stop haha. Besides, you didn't give me a reason why I should stop.

It's nice to know you recognize my existence though, the last time I saw you I don't think you said a word to me.

You're welcome?

Sincerely, Isabelle Long

Reason #1: He's insufferable.

Reason #2: Based on the letters you wrote to him you're not all that smart, so at some point he will get bored of you, call you a goldfish, and move on.

Reason #3: You're wasting a lot of paper and killing the earth.

Reason #4: It's annoying.

As you can see it's the safer option to just quit now. I would. The last thing you need right now is to be writing my fat, know-it-all brother. I'm sure you have many other, wonderful things to do with your time.

Dear Sherlock,

Wow.

Ok, first of all: Your brother may be a bit...trying, once in awhile. But he is not insufferable!
Second, I get that I'm not smart. I can't disagree (though I'm letting myself be insulted. Jerk.) And at first I was afraid of that. But you know what? I'm not anymore. We've been writing for like three years now, maybe more! So yeah. I guess intelligence

Third: It's not that much paper...

And lastly, how is it annoying? Mycroft lives in London now because of his new job. Unless he comes to you about me all the time (which is kind of laughable) there's no way this affects you!

Also. Your brother isn't fat. Just putting that out there. To tell the truth right now I don't have much going on with my life. Writing your brother is one of the highlights.

I guess I don't understand your motivation for coming to me NOW of all times. We do see more of each other now that he lives in London, but I don't think that changes too much.

He is insufferable, you are letting emotional attachment blind you.

Reason #5: He is manipulative. I wouldn't be so sure that three years mean anything.

It is annoying because on the few occasions we have been forced to talk with brother dear, he has brought up you. Insufferable.

He is, in fact. Since he moved to London he has gained nearly a stone.

You have a sad existence.

I already told you my reasons. It's a pain. There are a multitude of reasons for you two to stop writing each other, and seeing each other in general. Neither of your personalities are suited for a healthy relationship of any sort. And while I wouldn't normally care, it is getting in the way of my not puking when I wake up in the morning.

It feels weird to be told that my existence is sad by a twelve year old.
Isn't that the point? The fact that I got emotionally attached in the first place is enough to tell you that I don't think he's insufferable! 8P

Is he manipulative? A bit controlling I guess. I guess you're making me think about Mycroft more so that's good. It's about the only good thing I've gotten out of this haha.

Mycroft talks to you about me? Wow, I didn't think that was something he would do. That's...cool I guess. haha

He's not fat!

Look Sherlock, I get that you're annoyed. But there's nothing you can really say that's going to make me stop writing and talking to your brother *shrug*. You said that I was wasting my time, but I really think I'm wasting my time writing back to you! So please stop, unless you want to talk about something else. If you do I'm completely open to conversation ok?

Dear Sherlock,

Hey… uh… I think I get it now. I wasn't going to talk to you anymore because, well, as much as I like you (with so little information to go on) I was getting annoyed that you kept bad mouthing your brother. It came a little too close to home, y'know? But something changed a little bit and I guess I wanted to say something.

Mycroft asked me out. On a date. With food and everything!

And, looking over the Emails you sent me I think you knew he was going to do it. And I guess this probably wasn't your intention but I think this needs to be said.

I'm not going to hurt him.

I'm not going to up and leave him again without warning (or ever, he's a good friend if nothing else). So, that's it. I promise I won't. And if I do I give you permission to hunt me down and make it look like a suicide, ok? Haha

Lots of Love, Isabelle

Dear Mycroft,

Just writing you a note that I'm leaving at your place, because if I sent it in the mail we would have gone on our date already and then it would seem like it was too late. It feels weird to say that, that we're dating, much less write it. I'm excited though, promise! Feel free when you're done reading this to roll it into a ball and try to get it in the trash in one go.

I just wanted to ask if you could tell Sherlock I said Hi? And thank you, and see you later. That sort of stuff. Just, don't leave out the thank you.

See you tomorrow! -Isabelle Long


A short kind of fluffy one shot that I really wanted to do. Probably OOC for Sherlock though.

Again I'm sorry for the wait. The next chapter is going to be pretty long I think and I'm about a fourth of a way through ;) Thanks to Red for sticking with me, you're great!
Just so you know that I'm on the level: The next chapter includes *Drumroll* Zombies! WOOO, yeah! It's the best thing ever WOOO! *Ahem* Anyways, please review!
