First of all, thank you for trans!sherlock. Secondly, what if ‘the other one’ mycroft was talking about is always sherlock? Like, there is this photo from when they were children going around and myc is so mysterious. So people started making up stories like the one where he had a sister and he killed her bc she reveled the wrong information to the wrong people. And myc knows but never said anything about that. So he used the rumors to protect his brother and he is a badass. Luv your art bie
