thoughts on mycroft holmes? π wait have you heard of him or
omg mycroft holmes? who cares about his little brother so much but is so bad at adequately conveying that? who had a man carted off to an empty warehouse for the most intimidating "break his heart and i'll do worse than kill you" speech anyone's ever seen and then asked if marriage was on the table when the man so much as looked at moving into a flat with his brother? who absolutely royally fucked up and got himself into a situation he can't get out of with a criminal mastermind and forced his brother into having to fake his own death and even after all that he can't bring himself to actually discuss any of this with him, let alone ask forgiveness, because he can't handle a broken heart? mycroft holmes as portrayed by co-writer and -producer mark gatiss in the award-winning show which has aired from 2010 to 2017? who may or may not have put jim's face on every tv screen in the country to save his brother from actually being sent to his certain death? who has an office that's all concrete and mirrors and global domination under whitehall and who is definitely the smart one but can he help it if he loathes legwork (but he'll still suffer it for the sake of saving his brother, if needed)? who sat at his desk with his feet propped up and twirled a pen in his hand and said "i love a good acronym, all the best secret societies have one"? you know i'm not sure i have heard of him could you maybe elaborβ
