Oh, gosh. Terrific AU for "Lion's Mane" (and, may I add, I'm insanely jealous of Holmes's ability to explore the bottom of the sea without needing scuba gear.)

So am I!

Enlightened self-interest? Perhaps. But more to it as well.
(I still shudder when I recall this 'verse's Diogenes Club... brrrrrr)

Yes, one of these days I'll have to have a look inside the Diogenes club run by Vampire!Mycroft. (No doubt he's semi-disowned his ridiculous younger brother for letting love swallow him whole.)
