Fic: Multiply (the sum of our parts) - Masterpost
Title: Multiply (the sum of our parts)
Author: 1electricpirate
Rating: M
Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson (BBC)
Summary: After Reichenbach and in order to 1) Keep Sherlock alive, 2) Keep John alive and 3) Get Sherlock home to England as soon as possible, Mycroft devises a plan that will not only incentivise John's continued sanity and survival but force Sherlock to come running. It is a perfect plan, though perhaps less than ethically sound. He has no doubts that using frozen samples of your younger brother's sperm to create children for his husband to care for falls deeply within the realm of socially unacceptable behaviour, but it is efficient, and that is what matters most.
Author's Notes: It has been said that it takes a village to raise a baby and this story is no exception. I've lost track of the number of people who have coaxed and egged and cheered me through this. Special mention goes to Dylan, Carly, Amanda and the Other Skanks (you know who you are) without whom this would still be a particularly annoying and slightly disturbing idea at the back of my mind. So thanks for that, you mentalists.
Disclaimer: I do not pretend to own any of these characters (besides the two or three I have conjured from thin air). Credit for that brilliance falls to ACD and the Godtiss.
