Author's note: in this series I’m exploring Sherlock’s past and his relationship with Mycroft, from his earliest beginnings up to the time he ends up sharing the flat with John at Baker Street 221B. Book 1 dwelt on Sherlock’s discovery of the world around him. In this book things are going to change, fast. I’d be very happy if you’d join me for the trip. I’ll try to update once a week or every two weeks
Summary: “Shall we go and see whether the swimming pool is as big as they claimed?” Sherlock offers the question to end the awkward situation. Let them just pretend everything is normal, that this scene with Sherlock and Mycroft looking at each other in this horrid room that is to be Sherlock’s prison for the next few years is the most ordinary thing in the world. If they act believably enough, surely they’ll be able to convince at least the other, even if not themselves.
