    Summary

    In chaos theory, the butterfly effect is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions in which a small change in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences in a later state.

     

    So, what happens, if Sherlock only came back after three years instead of two?
    What happens, if John is already married and has a daughter, by the time he’s back?
    What happens, when Sherlock realises the life he had, didn’t magically stop and wait for him, and the people around him moved on without him?

     

    And what role does his brother play in all of this?

    Summary

    ‘Mycroft Holmes, you fancy me,’ he said with a shade more confidence than he felt.
    ‘I beg your pardon?’
    Not a denial, Greg noted. ‘The only reason I can think for you to come here is to see if it’s true,’ Greg said. He raised his eyebrows. ‘And why would you care if it’s true? The only reason I can think is that you fancy me too and you want to see if your brother is telling the truth or not.’
    ‘Is he?’
    Greg grinned. He was sure now, and the certainty was going to his head. ‘Have a drink with me,’ he said. ‘Actually, have a drink while I cook you dinner.’
