How cute and wicked oh I adore this

That was utterly adorable...she handled Big Brother quite brilliantly!

Nice.:)

Ha!
Mycroft and his Big Brother stalking. Rather creepy!
Mary's a good one. She knows how to play the games the Holmes boys do, very clever of her.
Deny everything. Of course Sherlock was find every opportunity to annoy his brother dearest. :)

Love it :)

I never would have considered that bit with Anthea, but it works.

Pulling one over pn Mycroft is the best isn't it? I loved the text messages. John's was especially amusing. well done, very nice.

almost in-laws. i like that.

oh, I LOVE your Mary! "I never lie; although I am not above deceit"- what a match for the Holmes' brothers!

Lol... Just like Mycroft to be blinded by sentiment, just a little. :) I'd like to see Mary portrayed much this way.

Interesting... I really do love your Mary. And I think that Sherlock and Mycroft do too. She really is a perfect fit for the lifestyle and "family" that John has chosen.

Miss Morstan is continuing to confound expectations:-)
I enjoyed her conversation with Anthea and her ability to stay one step ahead of Mycroft.

Well done:-)

Mrs P:-)

Delightful! I certainly felt myself rooting for this clever and unintimidated woman, Mary, throughout the story. Her charm shines through. Happy to see that even Mycroft finally realises her talents and lovely personality. You had me wondering about the significance of the left hand at the beginning. Well played!

"He should have discussed this encounter more thoroughly with his PA" - Indeed! This little portion with the Anthea interactions and Mycroft's involvement were great!

Well done! Glad I could have a small part in its inspiration. Thanks for the smile today
