Summary: A recent study concluded that the United Kingdom is the most weather obsessed nation in Europe, so it's no wonder that even Sherlock and not!Anthea can't avoid talking about the weather from time to time (no matter how much they like to think of themselves as different to everyone else).

Notes: The same study stated that Sweden is the third most weather obsessed nation in Europe (Norway beats us!) so I think I might be qualified to write this. As all theme ones this take place in the obscure time span of "from before ASiP to last moments of HLV".

Apart from that, I've been a terrible mother to this installment, having it lying around my HD for months only to send it to

zedille for betaing when her finals started. (So I've been bad there too... I'm sorry...) Thank you for all your help! I appreciate even the parts I ignore ;)

Notes: Holy fuck! This is the 20^th instalment of this. I feel like I need to commemorate this in some way, but I really don't know how to. I really just want to thank

zedille for making it possible for me to keep on doing this (and ask for her forgiveness for the changes I've made after she sent me the final draft...).

I would also like to thank all of you who read and comment and talk to me about this series. It's amazing and you're all fantastic.

You can find the rest of this series here.

Notes: This part was so much fun to write! After really struggling with the last two parts this one just came. I want to thank ibelieveinmycroft for trying to answer one of my stranger britpick questions ever and, as always,

zedille for being wonderful and inspiring and making sure I don’t overuse commas or make up new English words.

All parts can be found here.

Summary: Both of them married to their work, in sickness and in health, but mostly in sickness this time.

Notes: The traveling-theme was suggested by

mosellegreen a long, long time ago. Like all the Hiatus Chapters this take place somewhere between their first introduction and TRF.

I'm pretty sure you won't notice it, but I've never done as much research for an SMS chapter as I have this one.

zedille has been invaluable as always!

The rest can be found here.

Summary: Up, down, flying around... not!Anthea does a good bit of traveling in her job, sometimes Sherlock does as well.

I need my thing.

Without my thing I am angry.

Give me my thing.

Banana.

Notes: I just couldn't stay way until the next series ;) It is dedicated to (and betaed by)

zedille. The fic spans from sometime around ASiP to sometime after TRF. And as always, I apologise to the princes.

Summary: Sherlock is picky when it comes to music, or as not!Anthea would say: "He's a pretentious snob.”

Previous chapters to be found here.

Summary: The prologue to Short Message Service, or the story of why Mycroft regrets getting a mobile phone.

Notes: Just for the record,

zedille got the first version of this in the beginning of August and it has been a long – but not painful, this time – birth of this instalment. She’s a treasure and invaluable to this project, so it’s worth the wait.

Finally I want to apologise to Prince Charles and Prince Carl Philip.

Notes: This was written because

zedille needed to know what I thought happened between the two TRF-parts and I’m posting this today to celebrate her birthday. She is, as you might know, the constant beta for the SMS series and also to this fic. I’m not completely sure she’ll appreciate this gift though since she hasn’t seen the last changes I’ve done.

Still. Happy Birthday

zedille!

Summary: The last 30 min (or so) of TRF told by text.

Notes: This took a while. Sorry about that. TRF is still a difficult topic for me, apparently. It wouldn’t have been done without the timeline suggested by

mad_maudlin, the transcript done by

arianedevere and the brutal beta-work by

zedille. Thank you!

Find all of them here.

Summary: The Reichenbach Fall told in Sherlock’s and not!Anthea’s texts.

Notes: This was done with the help of

First, please pretend that it’s Jim Carrey in The Mask saying Smokin’ ;)

Notes: Back to crack again! Sorry it took so long to update this story. It has been waiting in the pipe for Eating us alive, again… to end (and for me to figure out the in-verse TRF). All the thanks to

frayedshoelace.

The rest of them can be found here.

These texts are sent sometime between the beginning of their friendship right up to the days before HOUNDS.

Summary: As the self-appointed peacetime propaganda minister of the UK not!Anthea tries to make Sherlock understand that smoking is bad for his health.

( Read more... )

Notes: This fic is a one shot, but some things trace back to the SMS fics.

I wrote this as a gift to my beta,

frayedshoelace, so she would start listening to Cabin Pressure. Two days before I finished it she told me she had already started. Mission completed? I was rude enough to ask her to beta her own gift, and she’ll kill me when she sees what I did after she gave it back to me. In other words, all remaining mistakes are mine.

Summary: Stranded at Frankfurt Airport (due to volcano related issues), Mycroft Holmes’ PA encounters MJN Air’s Captain.

frayedshoelace has been amazing when helping with this.

The other parts can be found here.

Summary: ASiB told with Sherlock’s and not!Anthea’s texts.

( Read more... )

Notes: These texts are sent sometime between the start of their friendship and that diffuse time post-pool, pre-Irene, because honestly, I have no idea what to do with all this new canon! Have decided not to touch it before we’ve gotten all three eps though.

The rest is to be found here.

Summary: The big question is, how can not!Anthea work for Mycroft?

Acknowledgement:

frayedshoelace has been wonderful as always with the beta work and she introduced me to a whole world of lovely Anthea fics this week.

Notes: After the Christmas one, I had to do a New Year’s one as well. This is for 2011/12 though. And as always has [Bad username or site: frayedshoelace� @ livejournal.com]been of a great help with getting it to make sense.

The Christmas one and the rest of the SMS-series is here.
