Your ability to write such a perfect story from a suggestion is very impressive! I admit that when I first read the title I didn't expect it to be that good.
I really hate Magnussen he was very disgusting, we can't blame Sherlock for shooting him ( I admit I was disappointed 'cause they didn't show us the look on his face when he was shot) still he shouldn't be so reckless in dealing with such a dangerous man. I like Sasha (gotta admit the Russians have style) in this too it turned that he is more clever than I thought, he could readily spot the type of relationship Sherlock and Mycroft have. I wonder what are the stories Mycroft were telling him..XD
I love how you mentioned that Mycroft always sees Sherlock as child being the eldest myself I can confrim it is true it hard to see your little siblings as adults espicially when they are behaving like children _Yeah sherlock I am looking at you...XD I felt bad for him a bit he didn't like being treated like a child while his big brother is negotiating but we all know this is the truth. Mycroft's patience and care every time touches me.
"You're forgiven, you foolish child," He can't stay angy with his baby brother , can he ?
Thank you for writting.

Nice fic, all the brotherly love I want for the Holmes sibling.
Thank you

I know this is late but I really love your stories they are so beautiful and exciting and you wrote everyone in character unlike many fanfiction writers.
Sasha is right Mycroft is a very very patient big brother being the elder myself I know that you have to be patient but Sherlock caused alot fo trouble in this story and in the series. And of course Sherlock they would see you as boy that you are that is why Mycroft can't help forgiving his foolish little brother.

Awwwwwww! This was so sweet, and awesome, and epic. I loved the twist with the Russians. Kinda wish the series had gone this route. It'd have made for an epic few brother moments. Come on, you know you wanted them to do it, else you wouldn't have written this.

Mycroft really does have a soft spot for Sherlock.

and they have a (Cristmas) dinner, of course the Holmes brother would participate a dinner with their kidnappers !? beside their inteligence, they have also dumn luck, must be the Christmas blessing :DDD love your writing style ! keep going!

i truly truly loved the story, the rollercoater of events was thrilling !

Wao I could certainly observe the bros relationship from "difficult" to precious :-)

Love love love your writing 3 3

I highly enjoyed reading your story from the first word to the last! You have talent girl/boy ! Thank you

O Yeah! I enjoyed the reading o so much! That's a Christmas to remember (hearing a song in the background..last Christmas I gave you my heart,but the very next day you gave it away.. I'm done :D)

Ouuu the shit hit the fan so freaking bad... You made the tension high as the Everest ..or better,this situation is like a deadly poker game,the stakes are incredible high,who is the better manipulator and who is ready to risk not only your own live,but also your beloved ones..

You updated the last chap! I truly enjoyed your work till the end. I 've never read a better Sherlock Christmas story..they were present(Mycroft), nice gatherings(by CAM),new friendships with your neighbours (Russian), fancy games(jumping off a plane), and brotherly fluffiness (in a prison). The Holmes should celebrate Christmas more often together,they have so much fun together (obviously hehe)

So I started to read this story...Mycroft is going to be delivered instead of his laptop..hmm OMG what have you done.I have a feeling the drama's going to be epic! And a great start by the way.

Aaawww! Perfect, I love it!

This Sasha guy surprised me the most..At first he seemed dumbly dumb,but he's many façades..like his advices to a pretty consulting detective :D:D
