Fic Rec: Mummy, No Thank You
Title: Mummy, No Thank You
Author:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
unloyal_olio
Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson, Mycroft Holmes/Greg Lestrade (mentioned), Mycroft Holmes/"Anthea"
Length: 19 918 words
Rating: M
Warnings: Omega-verse and all that entails (see author's warnings)
Verse: Sherlock BBC, AU (omega-verse)
Author's summary: Mummy Holmes arranges a marriage for Sherlock. Since Sherlock refuses to meet anyone properly, she must go to one of the breeding camps where older omegas are kept. She finds John Watson. Sherlock and John get along fine, but Sherlock refuses to marry and breed. Mummy decides that John should marry and breed with Mycroft if Sherlock doesn't want to. Sherlock is not happy at all. Thus, a p0rny, case-ficky, dark comedy.
Reccer's comments: Omega-verse is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine, but I initially found it difficult to get into this kink due the fact that many fics I had read were just gratuitous PWPs. Luckily for everyone this fic is not that at all. Don't get me wrong, this fic has some pretty explicit sex scenes, but it also has a great plot, a case, an arranged marriage, action, adventure, bonding, a creeptastic Lady Holmes, a BAMF!Anthea, fantastic John-Harry sibling love, hilarious!Mrs. Hudson, evil villans and more. The writing is great, everyone is well characterized, the pacing brisk and the dialogue snappy (and supremely humourous). Even if you don't think this is your thing, I urge you to give it a try, as in the words of one commenter, it "captures the fun potential of this 'verse perfectly".
Excerpt: The woman standing in front of him isn't really a woman.
Or at least John has a hard enough time thinking of her as one. Her smell gives it all away. The honey and hunter smell that they all have. She's an alpha, and when she smiles, it's with too many teeth; her canines look too sharp.
"Open your mouth," she commands.
"Rather not." John is in a bad mood. It would just figure that an alpha female would seize upon him. He'd always hoped for a male—young ideally. Not some old, stinky bitch. John pouts the most insolent moue he can muster.
