"Oh, by the way, John is not dead. Neither is Sherlock. Apologies for any undue alarm. ~MH"

THAT. OHGOD.

I just. Pictured everyone getting those messages being all 'WTF?'

And then Mycroft, all nonchalantly sending everyone text messages that 'hey. by the way. they aren't dead. good day.'

LOLOLOL This was awesome. <3

YES! That line's my pride and joy. Trust Mycroft to understand the logistics of a situation before its emotional consequences start to occur to him, and even then to completely downplay those consequences.

"OH BY THE WAY, THOSE THREE YEARS OF MOURNING YOU DID? THE TEARS YOU SHED? YOUR OVERWHELMING, UNSPEAKABLE GRIEF? YEAH, THAT WAS POINTLESS. SORRY TO RUIN YOUR DAY. SHERLOCK LIVES. EVERYONE LIVES. KTHNXBYE. ~MH"

XD

Ha! Oh, Mycroft! I can see this happening...

(I imagine Sherlock is commencing Mission Mycroft as we speak.)

Oh, Sherlock is certainly going to plan something as a result of this. I have a sequel in the works, in which I'll get to explore that a bit. Thank you for your comment! :)

I know, right? Haha! I can just picture Lestrade standing in the thick of things at Scotland Yard, staring down at his phone with a look of utter bewilderment. He is not sure how to deal. IT'S NOT HIS DIVISION TO DEAL WITH THE SUDDENLY UNDEAD. What a stressful day, whew.

Oh, shit, that's cold.
And I can SO see Mycroft doing it, too.

Mycroft has a flair for the dramatic, and his tendency to be constantly irritated makes this funnier than he'd probably like to know about himself.

Thank you for the comment! :)
