Summary
I'm busy as ten beavers lately, but I did find time to throw this together tonight. Just a "first meetings" story about Sherlock, Lestrade, and Mycroft. More an attempt to use the event as a lens to see the two men through Lestrade's eyes than anything. It's interesting to try to see them as Lestrade might have seen them for the first time.

Summary
I am grouping this with the story originally posted as "Beside the Long Water." I have updated the name to "Beside the Long Water: Kensington Gardens," and am now adding this new story. I do not know if I will continue to work my way through London's parks and gardens, but as I decided these two stories are part of the same approximate space-time-continuum, and because both were park-based, I thought I'd at least pair them up with each other.
This is love in late life. It's very quiet. It's more resolved at the end than either man realizes--they've crossed their Rubicon and the rest is going to fall into place very gently and dancingly. Life has just improved for these two in ways they can hardly even imagine right now. But we will leave them to their lack of clairvoyance even as we ourselves gloat knowing it all just got very rose-colored and contented. Let them realize for themselves that everything just got better.
I hope you like it. It's not loud.

Summary
This is small and sweet and fluffy and soft. It's also Mystrade with a rare Sherlolly element. I'm also adding it to my Parks series, as it begs to belong to that.
Hope you like it, fluff though it may be.
