    Summary

    "Will you stop smart mouthing me?"
    "So you admit it, you think my mouth is smart?"
    James came so close their chests touched when they breathed in.
    "I think your mouth is terribly underutilised in all its capabilities except for talking an awful lot."

    Sherlock finds himself on his knees as James decides it is time to teach him a lesson.

    Summary

    James stares at the scrap of paper in his hands. This equation could give him everything he’s ever wanted, everything that Silas had: power, money, security. But what good is any of that to Silas Holmes now as he rots at the bottom of a ravine? James could keep the formula. He would no longer be the poor little boy from Cork, doomed to suffer and wallow in obscurity. He could claw his way to greatness, yet a part of him knows that he will lose Sherlock in the process, no matter how he may try to avoid repeating Silas’s mistakes.
    -

    In an alternate universe, James decides that Sherlock is worth more to him than the formula.

    Summary

    “You need to learn how to stop me from hitting you in the nose.” James grinned.

     

    At their first encounter, Sherlock couldn't stand that grin. Something had seemed off about it. Something Sherlock couldn't quite put his finger on. It was almost as though the other man was trying to show that he was better than Sherlock, smarter than Sherlock. It had intrigued him nonetheless.

    He knew one thing for certain now though and it was that he wanted to wipe that smug look clean off his face.

    Summary

    In retrospect, they should have assumed something like this could happen. James will blame himself later on, insisting he should have known that there was a chance this could be a consequence of their involvement in ending Silas’ schemes.

    (Sherlock will, of course, tell him it’s not his fault, even as he grimaces in pain while doing so.)

    It comes in the form of a package from Sherlock’s mother.

    (Or: James and Sherlock are taken by one of Silas’s former partners. Conversations are had, secrets are shared, and revelations come to light. Heavy on the whump.)

    Summary

    “Right then,” Mycroft sighed, “that’s good to hear. So please forgive the clichéd expression here, but I must ask, what are your intentions with my brother?”

    James flinched. “Jesus, Mycroft, I’m not plannin’ to date him.”

    “Right, no, of course not… just my sister.”

    (Or, Mycroft Holmes can also make some observations, and realizes James and Sherlock’s relationship is doomed by the narrative. What ensues is a conversation and a glimpse to the future.)
