Mycroft and Lestrade, requested by flubber2kool

I really love this art style, and especially Mycroft and Greg done in this style.

This is a kind of illustration to the unwritten story about how Mycroft testing his feelings to Gregory… because of boredom and middle age crisis maybe… and in the end he becomes convinced, that he doesn’t need no one else… of course ))
third one is OMC… no matter how he looks ))

NGL, I want to read this story. Either Mycroft a colossal asshole, or Greg’s the most understanding boyfriend in the world. The fact that he’s standing nearby and has adapted a pretty relaxed pose should indicate that Mycroft knows he’s there, but that he’s in shadow could also be a sign he’s not supposed to be there. Either way, it would make for a psychologically compelling story, especially considering Greg’s history with Mrs Lestrade.

Cranky Theo is being vaguely cranky about a fandom thing. And also saying thank you. Pass on it if you want.

Shamelessly pitching the idea of AU Mystrade where Lestrade is way way younger High class escort for politicians.
Anyone?
Anyone?
I can’t be the only one….

Lovely graphic! And I’ll always support any Lestrade of negotiable affections ;)

Definitely needs to be more of this around.

Mystrade, mildly inspired by The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Weirdly, my eyes are drawn to how deliciously solid they both look rather than the outfits. *g*

‘You are Detective Sargent Lestrade from New Scotland Yard.’
‘Sorry, I’m afraid you’ve confused me with someone else.’
‘Lord Willoughby is currently being detained in Southern Italy for embezzling. And you reek of middle class, so let’s forget this silly charade. What is a dog of the MET doing here, Sargent?’
‘You’re clever. You already know, don’t you?’

byacolate: Younger!Mystrade. He wouldn’t be able to resist. This gentleman is the finest piece of cake, simply the finest.

…took a little liberty with the request. >_> Hope that’s chill.

OH. MY. GOD. OH MY GOD. TAE. YOU ARE FUCKING GENIUS. THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN AND IT IS ENTIRELY CANON AND I LOVE IT LIKE FUCKING STARDUST

WHAT

I’VE LOST THE ABILITY TO SIMILE 

I’m such a sucker for well-made GIF manips.

All right, fuck this

mycroftsbuttercreambrolly:

That’s it. I really would rather not do this on the eve of the Exchange, where people have worked their asses off for their fellow Mystrade fans, but fuck that. I’m saying this.

All people who feel the need to kiss the asses of people who shit on the Mystrade tag, go fuck yourselves. If you can’t stand up and defend our fucking tag, then go fuck yourselves. If your response to someone deliberately starting shit by tagging hate and then running off giggling like a dumbass is “Aww we’re not so bad, look at this manifesto, please, please, please!!!!” then go fuck yourselves. If instead of telling these people to go fuck THEMSELVES you write some dissertation that no one, especially someone who doesn’t ship Mystrade in the first fucking place, cares about go fuck YOURSELVES.

This isn’t kindergarten. This isn’t the UN. We don’t all have to get along or else we won’t get our punch and cookies. It’s Tumblr. It’s fine for people to ship whatever or not ship whatever or hate whatever like poison. It is NOT fine for people to hate on something, and tag it knowing it will cause a shitstorm, and then for the Pollyannas to come wagging their fingers at those of us who are fucking tired of the bullshit and telling us to play nice and “rise above.” How about you rise above my asshole? Try that first.

This is a ship I love, and I won’t force it on people who just don’t like it. I don’t like Johnstrade or Sherstrade or Johncroft, and I appreciate that those fans don’t try to force that on people. But I’ll be damned if I start having to deal with hate in my ship’s own tag and I’ll be double damned if people who say they LIKE THIS SHIP start jerking off the people who tag their hate. Go fuck yourselves, go fuck yourselves, go fuck yourselves.

And you know who you are.

I’m not super-invested in Mystrade as a ship, but I read it, and I track the tag for it.

I actually have been wondering why so many Mystrade shippers are so accepting towards people who show up in the tag just to say that they really don’t “get” the pairing and then demand the fans to explain themselves.

It’s actually really arrogant and dickish, and at some point it’s better to stop indulging them, because it’s pretty obvious they’re not doing it out of any real desire to get to know the Mystrade ship better. If that’s what they wanted, they could just have read the posts in the tag and checked out the fic on AO3. You know, like everyone else does.

Just because you ship the most popular pairing in a fandom doesn’t give you the right to piss on everyone else’s preferences. Especially since we’re talking about equally non-canonical ships here.
