I read a mystrade fic at least 6 months ago (I have a bad sense of time though so idk) but I can’t find it anywhere. It was on ao3 and it was a short one shot. Mycroft invites Greg for drinks and then shows him a bunch of fancy cocktails. One of the drinks is called “I love you” and is made to be shared with a partner. Greg ( who is hopelessly pining) asks him to repeat the name so he can imagine Mycroft really MEANS it ( of course Mycroft does mean it and he’s sharing this cocktail so he can actually SAY the words without actually confessing his feelings)

If anyone recognizes this fic please let me know because I really liked it and I can’t find it.

Also idk if this helps but I distinctly remember it had the kind of summary where they quote the fic in italics and the quote was like: ”I love you”

Greg feels very sad cause those are the words he most longs to hear. “What is it called again?”

“I love you”

Greg feels so much joy and subsequent longing.

bbc merlin’s political agenda of “i’ll wait for the king to die and fuck his son so good, he’ll have to adopt my politics” was actually so ahead of its time
