I've just started reading Infiltrate (tear down the walls and the gate) by SkipandDi (ladyflowdi) on AO3. I love it already, because of the first sentence:
Mycroft loves India in the spring.
And then the following paragraph:
Monsoon season is over but it has done its work, leaving the land fertile and arable. From the sky India looks green, a wash of color across the continent. Mycroft knows when they land it will be vibrant oranges and reds and every shade in between, colors that don’t exist in nature burning in his eyes, and there will be beautiful women wearing delicate sandals and beautiful sari’s and oh, oh, oh, how he loves India in the spring. That touch of the exotic, paradise; when they leave he’ll smell saffron and galingale and star anise in his hair, cinnamon and cumin in his clothes for weeks.
I have never seen a Sherlock fic that has involved India. It just makes me so happy that Mycroft loves India though! :D I may grow to like this Mycroft very much. <3
Plus, I've read enough to know that he's a BAMF. Oh, yes. How I do love BAMF!Mycroft taking on Moriarty. xD

Interesting note about Mycroft!
ReplyDeleteAs an avid Sherlockian, this concept intrigues me :)
Thanks! Mycroft is quite the interesting character... :D
DeleteIndeed, quite a few of the Sherlock fanfics out there deal with creative concepts or have unique takes on the canon that I haven't seen elsewhere. Cheers!
