MYCROFT HOLMES X OC
(YOUNG SHERLOCK)
Hailynne Virelle was known to be the second child of the famous Virelle family.
From studying Mathematics from Cambridge University, she transfers from Cambridge to Oxford University to continue studying Natural Philosophy in their new science department with scholarship given by Bucephalus Hodge.
Her main goal was to research upon Electrical transmission, specifically on gas light. As a new scholar, she wasn't particularly aware of where she was and with who she could be involved with, so she chooses to stay alone and focus on her research, so she wont find trouble.
However, that changes when a certain scout, and a couple of classmates of hers, get involved with the murder of Professor Thompson.
Considering her family's wealth and how they spoil her, they demand special treatment for her, especially with her tells and gifts. She was known to be invisible by people, despite her family being the most well respected in England, so she had access to places and secrets where other students wouldn't.
Hailynne thought, proving her research correct would be the most difficult challenge to come, but she hadn't considered, friendships. Betrayal. Family.
And falling in love.

Olivia Berkeley. The Holmes's family return
At twenty years old, Olivia serves as an apprentice diplomat in the British Foreign Office, navigating the expectations of her noble family and the delicate politics of the Crown. She is disciplined, loyal, and determined to fulfil her duty to her country. Her life follows a predictable path, until a posting to Oxford brings her face to face with Sherlock Holmes, her first love, a nerve agent that could kill entire cities, and a conspiracy that reaches into the Holmes family itself. Caught between the man who challenges everything she thought she had resolved and the man who has quietly become essential to her, Olivia must decide what she is willing to risk, professionally, personally, and in the careful architecture of the life she has spent years building. This story is also being posted on AO3, the chapters are structured a little differently there, and I'm uploading one episode a week. If you want to read it on AO3 as well, you can find it by searching my user, @GolfAddict, or by looking up the title. Thank you for supporting it wherever you choose to read, it really means a lot.

Young Sherlock: The Case Of The Uncaged Doves
James Moriarty and Lithia Holmes find themselves drawn together in a love neither expected and both are determined to protect. Their bond is tender yet fiercely tested as they navigate the constraints of class, reputation, and the unyielding expectations of Victorian society. With Sherlock's sharp‑eyed loyalty on one side and Mycroft's cold disapproval on the other, James and Lithia must learn how to build something real in a world that doubts them at every turn. Through quiet moments, heated clashes, and the slow, steady work of understanding one another, they discover that love is not a single choice but a series of them - made in the face of pressure, fear, and the shadows of their pasts. Their journey is one of resilience, devotion, and the delicate balance between who they are and who they hope to become, together.
New chance
What starts as an ordinary life at Oxford quickly unravels when Y/N cross paths with two very different minds-Sherlock Holmes and James Moriarty. Drawn into something far bigger than expected, the three of you form an unlikely trio, navigating secrets, danger, and a mystery that runs deeper than it first appears. Between clever deductions, reckless decisions, and moments that blur the line between friendship and something more, one thing becomes clear-nothing about this is simple. And once you're in... There's no going back.Complete
