The amazing @soupofmushrooms sent me this gif and I am happy to write a little Mycroft for you.

"Here again, brother mine?" Sherlock asked as he swept into the room, not at all surprised to see Mycroft already lounging in John's chair.

"We have matters to discuss." Mycroft glared at his little brother, who had been avoiding him for the past 24 hours.

"Oh. Mycroft. I didn't know you were here. Would you like a cup of tea?" You asked with a smile, entering the flat behind John, carrying a pastry box.

Mycroft's demeanour immediately shifted. "Of course." He smiled brightly his fingers twirling the handle of his umbrella as he looked at you.

"I'll put the kettle on. You want a custard tart? I picked up a few from the bakery down the road." You asked as you wandered into the kitchen, the elder Holmes straining to keep you in sight, much to the amusement of his brother.

"That would be perfection. Thank you."

"That would be perfection?" Sherlock looked at his brother with amusement. "I cannot believe that is truly you measure of perfection, Mycroft."

"Leave him alone, Sherlock." John chastised, trying to stifle his own amusement. "It isn't every day your brother has a crush on someone."

"What? That- This- I'm-" Mycroft tripped over his words, his brow pulling into a furrow as he frowned at John.

"Mycroft has a crush? Oh now, that truly is 'perfection'." Sherlock grinned, causing his brother to groan inwardly. This was going to be very trying and the chances of Sherlock agreeing to take the case he needed him too were becoming slimmer by the second.

Oh, sweetie, I do adore this man and I am getting back into writing mostly because Mycroft and Armitage refuse to stop pushing plot bunnies at me!

@savvy-devine666 always sends me the most brilliant gifs and this is no different. Right then, a little Mycroft seems in order.

This was not the way it was supposed to be. He was a man of logic, analytical to a fault, not swayed by emotions... so why could he not push aside this ache inside him?

Things between the two of you had gotten too familiar, become too loud and he had said things he had instantly regretted, not that his pride would let him admit it. There hadn't been a goodbye, no opportunity for him to apologise when cooler heads prevailed, you had simply exited from his life. It had returned to what it was before you, before these feelings and chaos. Only now it felt... empty.

His days were punctuated by your silence, his gut twisting as his mind chose to play his mistakes over and over in HD at the most inopportune moment. Mycroft found himself holding conversations with you in his head, anticipating your replies, although he knew you would always surprise him. Apologies, explanations, trapped forever in his head, clamouring for his attention, fighting against his pride.

Just over a week later, his heart had directed him to precisely where he needed to be. Standing by his car, he fidgeted nervously with his umbrella as he waited outside you place of employment. The words he had never meant to leave unsaid ran in a loop around his head, making his anxiety spike.

He was just contemplating how foolish this was, how you would react badly to this gesture, when he heard your voice calling his name. He looked up at you, his heart racing and a warmth building in his chest. Pulling on his usual mask of pomposity, he greeted you, opening the car door for you to climb inside. The words remained unsaid for now, but Mycroft was certainly aware that your absence from his life was intolerable.

This was made and sent to me by my dear friend @kjs-s and I am eternally grateful every time I get a little something in my ask box, so here's a little Steven for you all.

This was still more than a little surreal to him, this kind of thing didn't happen to Steven, not ever. He kept waiting for the other boot to drop, for the 'gotcha' moment, and it just never came.

He never knew that he could feel like this, so happy and fizzing inside all the time. Had the grey skies always been such a beautiful shade? The rain so iridescent? His heart soared as he made his way back home, knowing that, once again, you would be waiting for him right there. His lips tingled with the anticipation of your kiss and his step was lighter as he navigated the busy streets.

The world around him seemed to move in such a perfect way, like an intricate dance that hastened him towards you as if you were the sun, the centre of his universe.

He was soaked by the time he stumbled through the door, but he didn't seem to notice. You had wrapped him in a towel, insisted he change into dry clothes and he had insisted you help with that task.

Now, the both of you sat on his bed laughing about nothing, he had never felt so content and well adjusted.

"I love you, goofball." You giggled, the words causing Steven to hide his face momentarily before asking you to repeat your words, words he would never tire of hearing. Words you would happily repeat over and over until he understood deep in his soul that you were not going anywhere.

@kjs-s Spencer Reid

R: Remember and B: Best Friend

R: Remember; What is their favourite moment in your relationship?

He has to choose only one? Well, that's not fair when so much of his time with you is his favourite, and with his memory everything is so clear and right there for him to relive whenever he wants to. If pressed, really pressed, he would have to say that his favourite would be a quiet evening the two of you spent together, sitting on a blanket under the stars. The world seemed to fade away as you talked about everything and nothing, your laughter mingling with the gentle night breeze. In that moment, he'd felt an overwhelming sense of peace and belonging, realizing that he had found someone who truly understood him. Your connection felt like the most beautiful constellation in the vastness of the universe, and he'd treasure that memory forever.

B: Best Friend; What would they be like as a bff? How would the friendship start?

As a best friend, Spencer is incredibly loyal, supportive, and intellectually stimulating. He'd be the one you could always count on to listen attentively to your thoughts and concerns, offering insightful perspectives and advice. His vast knowledge on a wide range of topics would make conversations with him fascinating and entertaining. He genuinely cares about your well-being, checking in on you regularly and going out of his way to help whenever you need it.

Your friendship began when you were introduced by a mutual friend, in this case, Penelope. It was awkward at first, and then the conversation stumbled upon a shared interest and that was it, the two of you sat and talked for hours, entirely lost in the interaction.

@kjs-s Steven Grant

O: Open, R: Remember and X: Xtra

O: Open; When would they start to reveal things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait to reveal things slowly?

Steven is known for being someone who has a random stream of consciousness falling from his lips at almost any given opportunity. It's endearing really, the speed at which he will share his knowledge, his thoughts and opinions with you, but just because he says a LOT that doesn't mean he is sharing intimate details. I mean, come on, the poor boy has a hell of a story to tell and that would make most people run for the hills, right? He has finally found someone he can call a friend, so it would take him a while to really open up for fear of losing you.

R: Remember; What is their favourite moment in your relationship?

There are a few moments he could choose, but his absolute favourite would be the moment he realised he was in love with you. It was a Sunday and the soft early morning sunlight peeked in through a gap in the blinds, falling over your face. He can still remember the crispness of the clean sheets as he propped himself up on his elbow and just watched you sleeping. You looked so peaceful, your lips parted slightly, a soft snore falling from you that made his smile widen into a grin. You’d spent the night together a handful of times now, but this time it felt… different. Steve wanted to always have this, to always wake up next to you, to spend forever with you. His heart swelled as he realised what that meant, what he truly felt. Steve Grant was completely in love with you and though you had no idea, you had rolled onto your side and snuggled against his chest as if you just knew.

X: Xtra; A random headcanon for them.

Steven is an avid collector of vintage vinyl records. He spends his downtime scouring flea markets and obscure record shops for hidden gems from all era's and genres. Steven finds solace in the soothing crackle of vinyl and the timeless melodies of classic rock and jazz. He believes that music has a healing power that helps him maintain balance amidst the chaos of his vigilante life. Plus, he's convinced that the vibrations of the music resonate with the ancient Egyptian deity Khonshu, keeping the bird quiet for a little while.

[girl-next-door-writes]

A lovely anon dropped in and asked for a little of my favourite Holmes, so here is the sfw version, the nsfw is below the cut.

K: Kisses

K: Kisses; What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?

Mycroft is a man of many kisses. There are the chaste peck of the lips on his way out of the house. The hot, heated, desperate kisses where he has you pressed up against the wall after far too long apart. The soft, sleepy kisses first thing in a morning when he is just grateful to wake up beside you. He likes to kiss the top of your head. You could be sat down, in bed snuggled in his arms, dancing in the kitchen, it doesn't matter, he likes to press a tender kiss to the top of your head. As for where he likes to be kissed, if you trail soft kisses along his jaw then this man will melt. Just be careful with this power, because if you use it to distract him from his work you had better make sure you follow through.

X: X-ray

X: X-ray; Let's see what's going on under those clothes.

Beneath those finely tailored suits, Mycroft's physique tends to fluctuate. Let's face it, he doesn't really take great care of himself. There are times when he obsesses over exercising and lives off coffee, then other times where his diet in entirely take out and he spends days sat at his desk. The man is rather lean but there does tend to be a rather sweet layer of podge going on, proving that he is human. As for what is going on under those trousers of his… he may not be above average in length or girth, but he knows exactly how to wield his weapon for maximum devastation.

If the alphabet headcanons are still ongoing, can you do K (nsfw) and X (sfw) for Mycroft? This man is too fine!!

I am, and always will be, down for writing this man.

[girl-next-door-writes]

I am about to start the new season even if he is not on but i will imagine the way he can be back. So for the first ask i will say

Spencer SFW R and B. Thank you

Oh, absolutely! I have been fighting the urge for a rewatch and this might force my hand.

[girl-next-door-writes]

I am rewatching it and because i love him

Steven Grant SFW O R and X

Thank you darling

This is on my list. I'm feeling a little soft for this man.

[girl-next-door-writes]

Hi

I was super excited to see you back with requests open!

Here's my usual mycroft gif/drabble request if you don't mind 😉

Yes. Yes yes yes yes. I am adding this to the pile and grinning to myself like an idiot.

[girl-next-door-writes]

I made you one more gif. you dont have to write anything i just love making those for you

You always make me the most amazing gifs! I was toying with making this a Poe on, but I'm sticking with the lovely Steven Grant. Absolutely placing this carefully in the pile.

[girl-next-door-writes]

Welcome back! Scrolling through these gifs make me realise how much I miss Mycroft. I'd love to read what you'd come up with with this one!

It is entirely possible I did an excited little squeal when I saw this in my inbox. DEFINITELY going to write something for this one!!!
