Greg Lestrade looked at the date on the calendar and wished he could stay home today. He’d always hated valentines day even when he was married and this year wasn’t going to be an exception. At 5pm when the workday was over Lestrade noticed Mycroft’s trademark black sedan waiting for him, reluctantly he got inside and was surprised to be greeted by Mycroft who was naked except for the champagne and chocolates he was holding. Maybe this valentines day would be different…

levels of headcanon:

  • This is heavily supported by text/subtext and is likely what the creators intended for me to get from this 
  • this is sort of supported by the text and could, conceivably be what the creators intended for me to get from the text/subtext
  • there is no evidence either way
  • there is slight evidence against my headcanon, but I don’t care
  • I’ve stopped giving a shit about canon

Level Six: I reject this canon and substitute my own.

I HEREBY DECLARE – THE MYSTRADE DRINKING GAME

so set up your cheapest favorite booze, and drink when:

  • ‘Mycroft’ and ‘posh’ are mentioned in the same paragraph
  • Greg’s accent is mentioned
  • Mycroft is suddenly ginger         
  • Greg’s fabulous hair is featured as his best trait (EXTRA SHOT IF HE’S REFERENCED AS ‘A SILVER FOX’)
  • They talk about Sherlock
  • They try not to mention Sherlock in their conversation (IT’S A DATE AFTER ALL)
  • Greg’s divorced (EXTRA SHOT IF SHE CHEATED ON HIM AND DOUBLE THAT IF HE DIDN’T UNPACK ALL OF HIS BOXES YET)
  • Sherlock is still a drug addict (EXTRA SHOT IF THEY MEET BECAUSE OF IT)
  • Greg and John are drinking buddies (EXTRA SHOT IF THEY MOAN ABOUT ‘BEING IN LOVE WITH A HOLMES’ TOGETHER)

HARD MODE

  • Mycroft calls Greg ‘Gregory’
  • Every time Anthea appears
  • Greg gets a call from work
  • Mycroft uses a word you had to Google
  • CCTV

GOOD LUCK
