Summary
“What did Greg tell you?” John inquired, handing Rosie the rattle to keep her busy. She took it gladly, giddily shaking it against her dad’s shoulder. John ignored her.
Sherlock frowned. “Pardon?”
“What did he tell you after you asked him how Mycroft was?” John repeated, offhandedly dodging the rattle aiming for his face.
“That he was a bit shaken up.”
“Right. And?”
Sherlock paused, swallowing the sudden uneasiness settling on his chest. “He’s Mycroft,” he murmured, almost to himself. “He’s never shaken up.”
Or: after the events of Sherringford, Mycroft locks himself in his office. Greg worries, and asks Sherlock to check on him. The brothers have a much-needed talk. Uncomfortable emotions ensue.
Featuring: Greg Lestrade being an awesome boyfriend, Anthea being scarily good at her job, Rosie being adorable and John being bullied over his tea-making skills.Bookmarked by mmmaster

Summary
Mycroft sighed. He knows he's on the verge of falling apart. He hoped he didn't have to take this step, but it seems like he needs to. He sighed once more, and closed his eyes.
Mycroft was breaking down with all the guilt and his parents' reproach after the final problem. He needed to delete all the emotional attachment to survive.It could be depressing and I don't think it's a happy ending even though it's not necessarily a sad ending. You are warned.

Summary
It's eight years after the war and Hermione Granger has taken a break from her career at the Ministry of Magic to compile an oral history of the conflict. She's interviewed just about everyone she can get her hands on but she wants to be thorough. And that means getting in contact with a very unwilling Lucius Malfoy.

"For your information, I'm not shopping it around yet because I still don’t have access to all of the sources I need.”
“You’ve got to be joking. You must have interviewed every living person that was even tangentially connected to the war.”
“Not everyone,” Hermione said, turning in her seat to reach up for the mug of tea she’d left on the kitchen counter.
“Who’s left? The trolley lady from the Hogwarts Express?”
“Your father.”
Malfoy opened his mouth and then closed it again with a click of his teeth, shaking his head. “You don’t want to do that, Granger.”

Summary
Whenever Greg caught Mycroft’s breath quickening, caught him staring into the table with a faraway gaze, he would reach out, gently laying his hand over Mycroft’s. Easy, gentle. Just a touch.
Somehow, it worked every time.

Summary
Not sure what I'm typing but it's happening. Dunno if the tags will change. Dunno if it will make sense. Dunno what will happen in the end. I just dunno. But it's happening. It's here.
Addendum: This is a random set of stories that revolve around Mycroft Holmes and any hardships he may have and need to overcome. Have recently starting adding to this. No beta. Just me.
