    Summary

    London, 1840.

    The daguerreotype process, unveiled a year prior in France, has made its way into the home of one Mycroft Holmes. He spends his days running England from behind the scenes, of course, but also photographing frilly aristocrats who have nothing better to do than gossip and giggle.

    That is, until Constable Greg Lestrade appears on his doorstep.

    Slow burn early Victorian AU featuring Mycroft as a daguerreotype artist.

    Summary

    Mycroft Holmes was secretly called "M" while leading the intelligence services of the UK. The only other persons who knew were his younger brother Sherlock and their mother.
    Now, that Sherlock had found himself a flatmate, this one needed to be checked inside out. The same with his brother's work-related people. He had become a private detective. Sherlock called it a consulting detective.
    Mycroft's workload increased with rescuing Sherlock and checking his associates' files.
    One evening, he was sipping a fine whiskey and swirled the amber fluid when he sighed and opened yet another folder. On top of it, just below the FYEO was a name printed out: Gregory Lestrade.

    Summary

    For the prompt:

    What if the thing Mycroft did to upset Mummy... was to come out? What if, as a teenager, Mycroft decided to tell his family that he is gay, and his parents disowned him for it? It's okay now, he runs the British Government, he IS the British Government, but there's still that tiny part of him that wants his parent's acceptance, especially now he's found the man he wants to spend the rest of his life with.
