Fic Rec: Sherlock

[neadods]

Someday I'm going to clean out both my email and my linkdump. Today is not that day. But I wasn't going to pass on the the chance to pass on Boredom Untold, which is best described as "BBC Sherlock does The Ransom of Red Chief by way of Labyrinth."

Clip:
“The rules are simple, Mycroft. You have thirteen hours in which to solve my Labyrinth, and reach the heart of the Goblin City, or you’ll never see your little brother again.” He grinned, feral. “Of course, you could save yourself the trouble and simply relinquish him.”

“I’m afraid not,” Mycroft said. “Mummy would be displeased. And it’s my responsibility.”

“As you wish.” Then the Goblin King turned to Sherlock. “And you, my young friend, must come with me, and we’ll see what your brother is made of.”

“No!” Sherlock yelled, in a rare tantrum. “No, no, NO!”

“I’m afraid you have little choice in the matter.”

Sherlock glared, crossing his small arms. “Don’t be stupid; of course I’m going with you. It’s hateful here. But I don’t need Mycroft. Mycroft gets to do everything interesting, and it isn’t fair. I will solve the Labyrinth.”

Hee hee hee! Thanks so much for the link! That story is adorable, and just what I was looking for. I've been waiting for someone to write a full Labyrinth crossover since I read the first prompt on the meme, I think *years* ago at this point. There was eventually a tiny fill to one of them, but this fic is the one I've been waiting for!

I don't read the meme unless I'm pointed there, but I'm glad whoever put the request up did. This was hilarious!
