Never in a milion years and until the end of the universe will I be able to properly express the love I have for the character of Mycroft Holmes

bbc sherlock hyperfixation in 2025 😔

[divinity-in-chaos]

In light of the immense amount of love my Mycroft posts are getting, I have made some more :)) and obviously, the first is Mystrade

[thegreatmousebafoon]

John: IM AS STRAIGHT AS ANY ONE OF YOU!

Sherlock: ( has been in love with John since like- forever. ) … um… well…

Mrs. Hudson: ( took getting married to a maniac to learn it but damn did she enjoy being a lesbian while she could ) …. Um- yeah- about that-

Greg: ( do I even need to explain? ) … yeah bud- this is not going how you think.

John: oh come on. There’s no way- ( gets a text )

‘No one in that apartment is straight. I’m not even there and I’m not straight. -MH’

John: … You have got to be kidding me.

Sherlock: ( text alert noise, you know the one )

John: Oh… my God….

Sherlock: …Irene wants me to remind you she’s also gay. And that she bugged my skull- MY SKULL?!

I really wish more people listened to classical music... Especially people in online fandom spaces. Like, you're telling me you made a Mycroft Holmes character playlist and there is not even one Chopin etude? Come on. That man is a Late Classical / Early Romantic Era stan and you know it.

I can’t take Sherlock seriously, one of the characters is literally named Minecraft are you serious

Mycroft would not know how to flirt.

He would try to win you over with his witty comebacks and occasional compliments.

It's not like he doesn't know what the correct approach would be, but he just can't imagine himself saying such things.

You'd have to notice the subtle hints yourself. He will not poke at your intelligence(he wants to sometimes, it's a reflex, but he keeps his mouth shut when it comes to you), he won't keep the distance he usually does when he speaks to people. Sometimes he'd even brush his hand over your shoulder or waist when walking around you, or squeeze your knee a little if you're both sitting down.

To him all of these are MAJOR hints, yet you're just there, oblivious to everything for a long time.

He'd know that you like him, he isn't scared of rejection, but as you keep ignoring his efforts he does start doubting himself a little bit. Emotions are his weakest field.

When Sherlock gets sick of his unsuccessful courting, he pesters him until he invites you for dinner.

When you ask what the occasion is, he finally manages to tell you. In his own limited way.

"For the occasion of me wanting to have dinner with you, if you would be so kind"

That's all you get. You do still expect that there will be an actual, secret reason once you get there but you assume that he can't speak of it until then.

When you arrive at the restaurant and spend a good portion of the evening just talking about nonsense, you seem to catch on, finally.

"Mycroft, is this a date?" His cheeks are red, his palm covering his face.

"Obviously."

No. Not obvious to you apparently.

He is stressed. Help his poor soul.

You will mock him for literal YEARS about this. Of how the man controlling the whole country took 7 months to gather the balls to ask a girl out on a date despite knowing that she'd say yes.

I have good things to say about Sherlock’s the final problem 🫢 ikik crazy

One of the only things I liked about the final problem was when Mycroft began saying awful things to John and Sherlock…..to make it easier on Sherlock to choose him(Mycroft) to die.

It’s one of those few shining moments that I wish was dived into more throughout the entire show. Mycroft Holmes would do ANYTHING for his baby brother. Even die…..if it meant his baby brother would be safe and content.

But we were truly done a disservice by not getting to see Mycroft and Sherlock interact more. They grew up being the only two people like each other. And then one day their sister kills his little brothers friend and now he’s the biggest overprotective brother. Definitely “parentified”himself afterwards if he hadn’t already.

Alsooooooo Mycroft has pulled him from sketchy places during Sherlock’s addiction. WHY DONT WE GET TO KNOW MORE.

Also I’m just upset in general that we know Mycroft is lonely, just as Sherlock, but we never get any resolution to that. I’m not even looking for romance, but at least contentment with his familial relationships.
