It is your own choice and future.

Not any on the top of my mind, sorry.

That's alright. It is actually your chance to build understanding about my Mycroft, which might be useful later for Katrina in form of information that she received about him.

I agree. How about you write about how you think Mycroft would be around her?

o.o Isn't that requires Katrina's presence too?

I mean, she's obviously there, but I guess you need something to respond to.
Imagine she reveals to him that she knows about how Sherlock is one of his weak points.

If you mean how he would react, emotionally react, I can summarize it in a few words: assess the threat, plan for containment and or how he might benefit from it, weight pros and cons for each options. But like you said, she needs to response and it will determine what he will do.

Even those few words are beneficial. He's more systematic and mechanical than Sherlock, who feels (or at least shows) emotion to some extent.

Yep, he is strategic to the core. Emotions that he shows to the world mostly are geared to help further whatever goal he have in mind. Reserved to the fault.

That's intense. Doesn't he get sick of it at some point?

The eternal pantomime? That's why he needs solitude to recharge and recalibrate. Not saying that he cannot lose that self-control. He can and it won't be pretty.

Let's make sure he loses control then.

Can't have him be the same old Myc the entire roleplay, can we? It seems like a fun thing to do, set him off.

That's his core so any change would be surface-only. Next please.

Actually, I have a very important test tomorrow, so I might stay up a little longer but not enough to get two hours of sleep again. I did not enjoy that last time.
Interesting to think about: how do you reckon Mycroft would behave in a situation where he has absolutely no control?

The usual, he will dissect the situation into its deepest layers then try to rearrange it to suit his need. He is his own most powerful chess piece.

I like that. If only I could be the same. I don't even know if it's virtually possible for a person to be like him.

In his case, it is nature + nurture + environment.
Trivia; Mark Gatiss said that he hope to not as detached as Mycroft.

Really? I'm glad; I don't think I would like him very much if he were similar in real life. Mycroft is a fictional character (or is he? ), so I don't mind, but if I ever met someone that was like him, I'd probably outright hate them.

I bet that there are people like him, lol.
Oh no, now I get a vision of Katrina and Mycroft having a tea time together, chatting and trying to test each other's limits.

Uh oh, I have released my smartarse tendencies upon a poor regular Sherlock fan.

Grins. Do tell what you did to them.
