*COMPLETE* When Irene Adler contacts Mycroft Holmes with some shocking information and instructs him not to share it with Sherlock, he believes it to be a calculated power play against him. In some ways he's right, but the truth is more complicated, and personal. Could be considered an AU sequel to NaSnaG, but is also a study on the relationship of the Holmes brothers.
