Reccer's comments: 
This is definitely a HP/Sherlock crossover classic, so I was a bit surprised it hasn't been recced here before! All of esama's many fics are clever, well-plotted and thought-provoking--this is no exception. The pacing is perfect. The characterization is beyond brilliant--Harry's natural apathy is really played up in this fic, and frankly I like him better for it. Mycroft is...Mycroft, only sexier and more relatable than you get to see onscreen. Their interactions are the highlight of the story, and while I won't give away Harry's nickname for Mycroft (it nearly made me spit coffee on my laptop screen, I was laughing so hard), let me just say that it is an experience you shouldn't miss. And the world building that goes into this fic is amazing: esama reveals how Harry got to where he is, and why, in slow increments that leave the reader guessing (and gasping) for more. Luckily, it's complete on fanfic.net, so there's no need to wait!

I think SH/HP is a strange mix so i was reluctant about checking out this story but i'm glad i did :) It's brilliant ;D

So happy to hear you enjoyed it despite your misgivings! Definitely check out esama's other stories if you get the chance, they're an absolutely brilliant author.

Is this archived anywhere else? I find it difficult to download fics from ff.net.

Eh, I know what you mean. I've looked all over, but I don't think esama has posted this anywhere except ff.net. They do have a tumblr (http://esama.tumblr.com/) but this fic isn't on it.

Sorry to disappoint. If anyone knows of other link, I'd be interested to! :-(
