Verse: Sherlock BBC, crossover with Yes, Minister
Author's summary: A Civil Service highflyer may need his wings clipped.

Reccer's comments: Mycroft is very much on my mind these days, so as my last rec this month I bring a tiny jewel of a Mycroft fic. A short, very funny view on the early days of Mycroft's career in the civil service, partly told from the point-of-view of the one person in the administration more devious than him. And any author who can cite the Thirty Year Rule is a writer after my own heart.

Another great choice, I'm very fond of this one, too! I only wish there were more crossovers with the brilliant "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister" series, they are tailor made for BBC Mycroft (plus, hilarious!)

I agree, it really is a match made in heaven.
