mousedetective MHAW Prompt #1: Soulmate AU - You get to share the same talents as your soulmate and you probably hit the jackpot because it's the first time you've ever touched this instrument but you're quite the professional at it, what? Shredding? I don't know what that is but—oh… hey okay, I just did it I think.
"Shredding really doesn't apply to violins."
Molly shrugged off her obnoxious half-brother's remark. "Don't care," she said as she lovingly touched the strings on her new instrument. "My soulmate calls it shredding and that's all that matters."
She was 13 to his 'I'm-older-so-I-know-everything' 16. He wasn't always this annoying, but Molly knew it was because he was jealous because HIS SoulTalent was knowing all sorts of useless trivia about how the British government worked. How boring was that?
"Anyway, I'm gonna SHRED on this violin for Christmas this year!" she boasted, once again using the term that made him cringe. "And when I finally DO meet my soulmate, at least we won't bore each other to death!"
Fast forward ten years: Molly was right about never being bored to death by Sherlock Holmes.
Whether her half-brother Greg found his relationship with Sherlock's older brother Mycroft boring - well, she never felt the need to ask.
