This is excellent! I am so happy this exists. So many great lines:

“You were much more overwhelming before I got to see what a giant five year old you are,”

Ha ha! I love how Molly gets to know Sherlock and thus is over her crush, and how Mycroft woos her with increasing uncertainty.

Eee! A comment! *happydance*

I'm so glad you like this! It was one of those PLOTBUNNY HAS INVADED YOUR HEAD fics that gets written within minutes of reading the prompt. I really do think that if Molly got acclimated to Sherlock she'd get over it and his flattening personality. As for Mycroft...well. The Victorian flower language just seemed to fit fantastically well with his personality, and I could totally see him outsmarting himself with the assumption that either she'd know it or Sherlock would figure it out.
