Summary
"You knew to have the car waiting for me. You've apparently arranged your lunch break around my arrival. You really don't need me to report on Sherlock's doings for you, do you?"
"Very good." Mycroft somehow manages to make the words sound something other than horrifically patronising. John is sure that it's a skill he needs frequently. "But then why would I have you brought here?"

Summary
One of the first things John did was to write up step-by-step instructions on how to conduct a proper job interview before handing it over to Mycroft for his perusal. There were no kidnapping, deserted car parks or stolen therapy notes anywhere on that list.
(Or the one where John returned from the war and ended up working for Mycroft as his personal assistant slash doctor on retainer. Everything was fine, until he was sent to post bail for one Sherlock Holmes.)

Summary
It seemed that Lestrade's salt-and-pepper hair grew in the same on his face as it did on his head. His beard was bristly, patchy, viscerally appealing in a way that had little to do with aesthetics and more to do with masculine sensuality. Mycroft was stood rapt, conjuring up the rough brush of the beard against his lips without having moved an inch. His apprehension dropped away, lost behind a painful stab of want.
Christmas, when he and Lestrade had both been strong-armed into growing beards for a cause, proved to be the turning point for the whole desperate, shattering, uncomfortable scenario.

On paper, a bacon sarnie and a cup of good coffee isn’t exactly the kind of thanks one should receive for rescuing someone’s family member from an overdose.
Lestrade thinks that it’s possibly the best one he’s ever received.

Summary
"Mycroft smirked as his phone began to vibrate in his suit pocket, and he withdrew it as he strolled into his office. He watched Anthea settle at her desk just outside his office and open the day’s schedule on her computer before pressing the call button with a light touch.
“Good morning, my dear,” he drawled smoothly.
“Hi, Mycroft, sorry to bother you at work,” John’s voice filtered through the phone, harried and rough with sleep."

Summary
Major Non-Canon A/U, Harry is treated for abuse and massive injuries by John Watson as a John Doe. To help solve the mystery of the battered boy John calls in his partner Sherlock - whose father has much more information about his patient than John ever thought possible. Turning to an old acquaintance, Siger Holmes contacts the Lord of the Most Ancient and Noble House of Wallace...Harry's rightful guardian.
First several chapters will be covering Pre-Hogwarts years, story starts with Harry at age four so it'll be a while before any sort of slash or real conflict happens. Very political fic with lots of twists and turns. Because the plot-bunnies won't leave me alone!

Summary
"I have been ready for sixteen years. I have been needed for sixteen years. I have experienced such pain as I did not know could be visited on the human mind - and after sixteen years of it, I would quite like to sleep.”
Panem is at war with itself: after five years of preparation, the revolution has finally begun. The Districts are fighting back, with District Thirteen's military behind them.
Emma Swan and Mycroft Holmes - 'the heart and mind of the revolution' - arrive in Thirteen hysterical and catatonic, respectively; but time waits for none of them, not even those who have lost everything. The mockingjay must sing; the war must be won.

Summary
"The notion of change, of revolution… for the sake of all those we have already lost to the Capitol’s regime? For the friends and allies and lovers we have watched suffer at Snow’s hands; for those we have lost, and all those we have yet to lose? Yes. That, I can say with surety, is worth dying for."
Revolution is coming to Panem - along with a Quarter Quell. Time is running out in preparing Panem to survive, to win, a rebellion; one they cannot afford to lose. Everything they have dared to build stands on a precipice.
The countdown has begun.
"In short: it is not about you. It should be."
