In a world where everyone discovers their soulmate through seeing a blinding white light after skin-on-skin contact, Greg Lestrade is trying to get on with his life. But then his soulmate turns out to be the very unlikely Mycroft Holmes who doesn't want to get involved with him. So what is he going to do? He's going to win him over, of course. These characters are not mine.

Mycroft sometimes wished he was wrong...

It's 1991 and a young Carl Elias barely makes it out of the woods alive. A few hours later, Anthony Marconi wakes up to a knocking at his apartment door, and someone he never thought he'd see again waiting outside.

Sherlock wasn't. As a result he wakes up in a world where he no longer lives in Baker Street, and Mycroft became an older brother to an entirely different type of Consultant.

What would you do if you were buried alive? Being one Mycroft Holmes was never easy. But maybe if you have a Sherlock there's a chance of survival. (Holmes brothers)

Even Mycroft is capable of being surprised.

It's like this: Neil hides things. (Or, an introspective from Eva's perspective on the relationship between her and Neil, kind of.) Very vague hints of Rosawatts, if you squint hard enough.

It was her first time here, and she had to admit - it was a surprisingly nice neighborhood. She didn't think quaint townhouses and cul de sacs would suit him. But then again, she had to remind herself, she could never assume she knew everything about him - despite being acquainted for nearly half their lives.
