"Open Season" on Lestrade = possible whumpage, violence, H/C anonymous December 9 2012, 16:05:33 UTC

Lestrade's made a lot of enemies in his time. Criminal enemies. After Sherlock's fall, the sensationalist media plays up Lestrade's disgrace and suspension from his position (along with plenty of photos), and some of those enemies realise that Lestrade is now a man alone, without the Yarders behind him, without so much as a baton for self-defence. In fact, it actually would solve some of the problems faced by the Met's senior leadership if Lestrade just... disappeared.

I'd like to see who (if anyone) realises how vulnerable Lestrade is and tries to watch out for him, before it's too late.

Whumpage, violence, and darkfic don't scare me. ;)

John Watson opened the door of his new flat and immediately shut it again ( ... )

John and Mycroft to the rescue! It's probably heresy, but one thing I'm really enjoying about the post-Reichenbach wait is all the attention the supporting characters get - and this is a wonderful example!

Oh, I agree wholeheartedly!!!!

Thanks so much for reading and for your kind words. :)

John held his tongue as the black sedan sped into the night. Mycroft's full attention was focused on his phone, receiving reports and issuing instructions. Repeated phrases such as "satellite images," "surveillance photos," and "intercepted footage" suggested that the manhunt for Lestrade was yielding fruit ( ... )

NA

This is brilliant! I'm eagerly awaiting more of this. Poor Lestrade! *frets*

Anon here anonymous December 11 2012, 18:25:33 UTC

Oh YAY! *clappy hands* Thank you so much for this. I really appreciate it.

Things are about to get very unpleasant for our gallant DI... D: WOE!

John's helplessness gnawed at him, and his simmering, frustrated anger - so close to the surface these days since Sherlock's fall - boiled over, seeking an outlet ( ... )

"Surely you didn't think I was the reason Sherlock became the world's first and only consulting detective, rather than merely another dead junkie found overdosed in a gutter ( ... )

Oooooh, I'm on the edge of my seat here!

"A man in my position has no friends, John," Mycroft said at last, with an edge to his voice that John couldn't identify. "But if he's fortunate, he may have allies. And if he's intelligent, he will protect those allies whenever he's able to do so."

Loved this - quintessentially Mycroft, in that it can be read in several different ways at once!

Anon here anonymous December 12 2012, 01:24:58 UTC

Yay, I'm so happy you're interested in where this is going!

It's wonderful to hear that those lines in particular seem properly Mycroft-ish. Thank you for the lovely feedback - and for reading!

Re: Fill: Everything You Know I Haven't Got, 8/? anonymous December 11 2012, 19:10:13 UTC

!!! "Removed". Way to sound ominous, Mycroft.

I really liked John's realization that Mycroft and Lestrade were friends.

Anon here anonymous December 12 2012, 01:26:23 UTC

Ominous, indeed!

I really liked John's realization that Mycroft and Lestrade were friends.

Oh, I'm so glad to hear it! Thank you so much for this.

And for reading!

Re: Fill: Everything You Know I Haven't Got, 8/? anonymous December 12 2012, 00:24:32 UTC

Love this! Please update soon!

Anon here anonymous December 12 2012, 01:28:49 UTC

Oh, thanks so much for this! It means a lot to me to know you're enjoying it. I just posted an update, and I'll be posting more very, very soon. Thanks for reading!

John lost track of time and distance as they put London behind them. The sedan turned from one less-travelled road to another. Rolling fields replaced city blocks ( ... )
