^{FAKING IT.}^❛ ^{somewhat of a tasteless description of our family, wouldn’t you agree, doctor watson}^? ^❜^{well aware is she that the grave is empty, that no cold body lays rotting in the ground. and yet, the good doctor remains ignorant, grieving. most would forgive the harshness of his words, but she has never been the sort to revel in that divinity. insinuations towards her role in the detective’s fall rain down on deaf ears; who is he to judge what she has done and continues to do for her family? necessity dictates her moves; it always has, and she will make no apologies to a man who knows nothing of the lengths she’s gone for her family.}

some basic message rules: I accept any messages, both IC and OOC, from anyone, mutuals or not. It is also entirely acceptable for you to send me a meme even if we have never interacted before. All I ask is that any messages I receive are courteous, and that you remember that the anon function is not there for you to abuse.

BRITISH COMMON LAW.

I use the term semi-selective loosely. More often than not, if you approach me for an RP, I will say yes, and be generally receptive to whatever plots are put forth my way. I do, however, reserve the right to say no to an RP request, or reject an idea I am not comfortable. If I follow you, it’s because I want to interact with you. If I reblog memes, it’s because I want them sent by anyone. However, that being said: I am not a resource blog. I know I reblog a lot of memes and quotes that can be used in the ‘about my character’ tag. But if you follow me just so you can reblog all that stuff, and never even try to send one in, it’s a surefire way to make me not want to interact with you I am a student at a college prep boarding school, and as such, work for AP classes, Honors classes, and afterschool play rehearsals will take up some of my time. In addition, I run other blogs, and I keep those up too. Activity may be spotty on certain days, and for that I apologize. I am open to any and all crossovers and AUs, in addition to main verses of ACD timeline and BBC timeline. All open starters are open to everyone, mutual and non-mutual, unless otherwise stated. I post starter calls regularly once every seven days, and they can be liked at any point during those seven days. Memes can be sent by anyone at any time, and can always be turned into new threads. All I ask is that memes be reblogged solely for the purpose of saving the response, so move the response to a new post and I’ll get to it in a jiffy.

I am a shipping whore. I mean it when I say I’m multiship. I like exploring relationships, and all relationships exist in their own separate universe unless otherwise stated. If you approach me with a shippy plot, I will most likely be very receptive. However, do not force one. If I say I’m not comfortable with the idea of the Mycroft in a relationship with your character, don’t push it. I will not make something or have a shippy plot in mind unless my partner makes it clear that’s something they’re game for, and I expect that same courtesy. The mun that runs this blog, is seventeen years old. I am not legally allowed to engage in any NSFW RP with anyone until February 9th, 2017. Please respect that rule. I will not reblog, post, or engage in any type of NSFW thing, both for my comfort, legal reasons, and because I don’t want my partners to get in trouble. I make this abundantly clear, and a failure to recognize and respect this will result in an immediate unfollow. This rule is absolutely non-negotiable, and only when I turn eighteen will I change it.

Given the nature of what Mycroft does for a living, in addition to the type of things she’s surrounded with, there may be dark materials present on this blog. I tag all triggers as #tw: triggerhere. Let me know if you want anything tagged, and I will be more than happy to comply. All I ask, and I know this sounds weird, is that you tag birds and bad parenting. I know the latter is a broad topic, and the former makes no sense, so just tag it as “don’t look amelie”. I’m lax about this rule, and I don’t mind if you can’t comply. I do not send hate, nor will I ever send hate. I find it disgusting, and ridiculously petty. If you send me hate, I will answer it, just so I can thoroughly degrade you for being a bitch. And if I find out your sending hate to people I know, I will call you out on it, and I will block you. We Gucci?

Most importantly, I am not my muse. Mycroft’s actions, thoughts, and feelings do not reflect my own, so please do not assume so. Nor are my feelings always reflected onto Mycroft’s. She is her own separate character, and I am my own separate person. Second of all, do not underestimate Moriarty. While she’s not necessarily one for ‘legwork’, and is thus not that physically imposing, Mycroft is extremely intelligent, and more than willing to use her knowledge and position of power to get what she needs, or eliminate an obstacle. I’m a seventeen year old bilingual author. I’m also incredibly shy, and not at all as intimidating/bitchy as these rules might have me sound. My mun faceclaim will be the late Anton Yelchin, best known for his roles in Charlie Bartlett, Odd Thomas, and the Star Trek reboots, so anything prefaced with his face will likely be me talking. I have good days, and I have bad days, and bear with me during the bad days, because my mood can really suck.

I send passwords. I read everybody’s rules and I will send the passwords, via ask or IM. That being said, I know that sending in passwords can give some people anxiety. So for my password, you don’t have to send it in if you don’t want. It would be nice, but I will assume my followers read my rules unless proven otherwise. But people who do send in the password will get priority over people who don’t when it comes to memes and replies. So, with all that rigamoral out of the way (and I promise I’m not as intimidating as this looks), send in “Bobby Kennedy deserved better” via IM or askbox, and have fun!

BBC MAIN.
Follows the timeline of the BBC show. She says minor position in the British government, everyone else says she is the British government. Importance oozes from every pore, as well as a careful detachment from the world and its people, which serves to mask a loyal heart.

biography

Mycroft Holmes is the elder sister of detective Sherlock Holmes. She is described as having abilities of deduction and knowledge greater even than that of her brother, though their use is limited by her dislike of fieldwork. Mycroft occupies what she calls a "minor" position in the British government, although Sherlock maintains that her job is far more important than she claims.

"All lives end;"

"That name you think you may have just heard, you were mistaken. If you ever mention hearing that name in this room, in this context, I guarantee you, on behalf of the British Security Services, that materials will be found on your computer hard-drives resulting in your immediate incarceration. Don't reply, just look frightened and scuttle."

"All hearts are broken;"

Independent cisswapped Mycroft Holmes, primarily from BBC's Sherlock. Faceclaims include: Rachel Weisz (main), Keira Knightley (alt.), and Phoebe Tonkin (teen/young adult). Read rules before interacting

"Caring is not an advantage."

"As my colleague is fond of remarking, this country sometimes needs a blunt instrument. Equally, it sometimes needs a dagger - a scalpel wielded with precision and without remorse."
