    Mycroft dies for Sherlock anonymous May 9 2014, 17:39:18 UTC
    Mycroft starts receiving anonymous messages that threaten to kill Sherlock. While trying to source the identity of these messages, he creates fake cases as a distraction for Sherlock, so his brother won't notice his increasing panic.

    He eventually finds out who's sending the messages (up to you), the only way to stop the threats to Sherlock's life is for Mycroft to offer his own life in return. Mycroft accepts.

    But, Sherlock realises halfway through a fake case what Mycroft's planning. He rushes to his brother's office but he's too late- Mycroft is slowly dying from a gunshot wound. In his last moments, Mycroft could mention Redbeard etc, and when Sherlock accuses him of 'sentiment', Mycroft merely replies: "No. Proud of you."

    Can include aftermath- maybe John finds them, Sherlock breaks down...

    Really specific prompt, sorry, so you don't have to include absolutely everything! Just a plot I've had in mind for ages but don't have time to write. :)

    hello! I know this prompt is quite a few months old, but I saw it and instantly loved it. I've tried my hand at filling it on AO3 here: http://archiveofourown.org/works/2843111/chapters/6376895

    Hey, OP here- just saw this! Oh my goodness, it's absolutely fantastic- so weird to see an idea I've had for the past couple of years be written so wonderfully! Thank you!
