Thank you so much for reading something that basically gives you the creeps. That's so utterly kind of you and I want you to know I'm very grateful to you for giving this a try, despite your initial revulsion. The reason for the taboo to exist makes perfect sense, of course, from a biological POV. But, as I had Sherlock point out in the third part of the story, they don't have to worry about that aspect of their relationship.
Also, in the series Moftiss have created a universe in which Sherlock and Mycroft are above society's norms and laws. So Holmescest is basically an expansion of that idea into the realm of sexuality. Or so I think. :) And, as I'm convinced all the sniping we see in the series is just a means to an end to hide their deep affection I think their relationship is a loving one.
Thank you for your very kind words about my writing. I had to smile about your comment on my background story for I always feel I need way more than 3,000 words. I wish I knew how to write a short story.
