What could bring together an American working for Scotland Yard and a man in a 'minor position' in the British government? What might melt the Ice Man, and what could strike fear into the heart of he who has faced down terrorists and negotiated with countless governments? Perhaps, in the end, caring -does- have its advantages. *This is lots of fluff, add in some sass, and a dash of intrigue and adventure. **I'm an American, and I apologize in advance if I get some British bits and pieces wrong. Also, this is fan fiction, so except a dash of OOC and AU because that's what makes fanfic fun. :) ***My original characters and the plot are mine, The Holmes brothers and their family and friends sadly don't belong to me.

James Moriarty was the equivalent of Sherlock. The only difference was that he didn't feel. And he was willing, even glad, to kill. Helena Carter is the equivalent of Mycroft. The only difference is: she isn't willing to kill. And in all the games, the chasing, the cases - Sherlock wasn't the target. He never was. Helena wants Mycroft Holmes to break. And so far, he's been dancing to her tune... Perfectly. Posted: 12/2/14 Finished: 12/26/14 Edited: No
