Summary
Moriarity had probably had a good laugh over it. It probably made some kind of sense in his deranged mind. He might even have thought that he was doing the right thing.
What he did do was put them in an impossible situation.
And when Sherlock jumped, John knew that he’d done it for them. He knew that it was so that they could survive. After all that’s why Moriarty did it. That’s why their son had been created.

Summary
Seven times Mycroft Holmes is forcibly reminded that he feels like everyone else.
0. Grief - Mycroft can remember the first time Sherlock called him ‘daddy.' ((No longer considered cannon to this story, but I've kept it up))
1. Fear - For the first time in years, Mycroft found himself utterly afraid and unprepared.
2. Disappointment - Though the Alpha knew this outcome would happen, he could not fight the biting disappointment.
3. Lust - He hated his ruts.
4. Interest - And yet…there was something interesting about Lestrade, something that made him impossible to forget completely.
5. Attraction - The attraction he felt towards Gregory was the strongest he'd ever felt towards anyone.
6. Affection - It wasn’t quite love, but it was close; a deep and binding affection, a budding sense of possession and obligation, and Mycroft took his obligations very seriously.
7. Love - Love, the Alpha realized all at once, that was what the emotion was called.
+1. Family - Yet the Alpha could hardly deny that it had never looked as fine as it did today, filled to the brim with his suddenly rather expansive family.Series
