Oooh, thank you! I'm sure I never mentioned I had a Sherlock druggie prostitution kink, but... yeah *g*. Mycroft is interesting here, too - he treads that fine line between caring and cold that I think makes him closer to Sherlock that he realises. Anyway, greatly enjoyed what you did with the prompt ;)

Really glad you liked. I really wanted to subvert a lot of the rent-boy tropes that are so prevalent in slash-fic, while still getting in plenty of they Mycroft/Sherlock dark angst.

Thanks for reading and commenting. Sherlock is easily a champion manipulator on par with his brother. (We see it in almost every second with John, don't we?) That's why Mycroft knows how hard it will be for Sherlock to even ask for help. Although when he does, that's probably a ploy in its own way.

Like delicious dark chocolate. Mycroft's speculations about his brother (tweaked to suit his own fantasies) are so very wicked. And of course, he knows his brother well enough that he can't try to interfere just yet. I love the play on perspective here, and the way you've described Sherlock's sense of invulnerability from Mycroft's point of view.

Thank you so much. To me Mycroft is really the most fascinating character in the BBC-Sherlock verse and his relationship with Sherlock the most complex. I have a lot of fun writing them and it gives me a chance to go to some very dark places.
