Okay, because it's been a while since I've seen it... but is there any mention of whether Paul or Estelle took the other's last name when they got married? Because I obviously have not the time to rewatch the series but there's always times for bunnies...

Dammit, why do paper books not have a cntrl-f feature?!?!?!?
The story of my life. And some people are still confused why I love my .pdf version of the Holmes canon...
EDIT: Though my brain now informs me it is entirely in the realm of possibilities that Sherlock and Mycroft might have taken their mother's maiden name to avoid the unfortunate associations of the name "Slippery". And it would take a bit of changing canon facts to fit Sherlock in between Mycroft and Rory, age-wise... damn you, brain.

I want this so much after just watching Fortysomething (on youtube). If it helps any writers, I'm thinking that a Holmes relative (grandparent/uncle/aunt/etc) could have been around to help raise Sherlock and Mycroft, which could at least partly explain why they're so different from the other Slippery kids.

I posted a different prompt for this crossover in the last section, but no one has filled it yet. Someone said they were in the middle of one, but they haven't posted it yet.
Anyway, if they are actually related, I would find it more believable that Estelle and Mommy!Holmes are sisters (though Benedict and Hugh have similar body types, I think through the mothers makes more sense unless it's Hugh as House, of course.) But any crossover of this type would be made of awesome! Please someone write one (or two)!

Mycroft smiled smugly, clearly sensing his victory. “Laura has, once again, cheated on Rory. Again, with Daniel. Unfortunately, the flat they were sharing was hers, and Rory has been sleeping on the streets for several nights

There were two figures in the doorway, one crouching nervously, the other - the one with the vicious cough, curled up into himself, hood up and arms folded tightly across his chest, his brown hoody his only source of warmth

A/N: Wow... this section was going to have a brief explanation of Rory not being like Sherlock... but then it went into a deep explanation of Sherlock's behaviour! Still, hope you like

“Please don't mention Anderson again, John.” Sherlock's voice rang out as he stepped into the kitchen and dropped two bags of shopping onto the table. “Rory's sick enough already

The scene was one of the worst John had seen since meeting Sherlock. A dark-haired man was lying face-up on the bed, his chest cut open, blood soaking the sheets underneath him. The smell of blood instantly brought up images of hot medical tents in John's mind, soldiers bleeding beneath his hands
