Brotherhood
When his mother told him that he would soon no longer be an only child, Mycroft had just blinked at his impending brotherhood. He was too old to be surprised and he was sure, that no matter its sex, the child would not be as smart as he is and would be a goldfish, just like all the others.
When he held his brother for the first time in his arms however, he could no longer think that he would be a goldfish. For his brother, even 3 weeks after his birth, had such an intelligent set of eyes, that Mycroft would not be surprised if he would surpass even him as far as smarts go.
And Mycroft was proven right, even though he never told anyone his suspicions. It wouldn't do for Sherlock to get a big head after all. At only just a month old, he started talking, and while he didn't start walking till he was 9 months old, due to insufficient leg strength, attempts had started as early as 7 months old.
Even Mycroft had only one week difference from other babies when he started to talk and he didn't start walking till he was 10 and a half months old.
Maybe Mycroft wasn't excited at the start o his brotherhood, but now, he wouldn't change it for the world.
