In interviews Moftiss have compared Sherlock and Mycroft to Frasier and Niles Crane and I'm sitting here like "there are some Mollcroft possibilities in this mental picture".

↳ Molly Hooper: Sherlock
“I don’t count. What I’m trying to say is that if there’s anything… I can do, anything you need, anything at all, you can have me. No, I just mean… I mean… If there’s anything you need. It’s fine.”
culverton smith: what’s the worst thing you can do to your very best friends?
me: idk blame them for ur wife’s death, show little to no care about their relapse and self-destructive behaviour, beat the crap out of them even tho they didnt even try to fight back, say ‘yes you did’ when they say that they deserve that bc they killed ur wife, then gaslight the whole damn thing?
me: who would do that to someone they consider a friend tho
Anonymous asked: What would Mycroft and Sherlock’s relationship be like if their ages were switched and Sherlock was the eldest?
This is quite possibly the best ask I’ve ever received. It has also required a lot of thought as, obviously, it wouldn’t be as simple as the two of…

In TLD it looks like late summer/early autumn but then it's suddenly Sherlock's birthday (which supposedly is january 6th) but virtually no time passed between TLD and TFP if you look at the plot.
I've postponed trying to solve this for my fic but now that I need to write scenes in a house with a garden I must deal with this somehow.
UPDATE:
I decided to go back and look at the script for this whole birthday business (I don't currently have access to the show itself) and I feel it's obvious now that John just failed at deduction (like he often does) and Sherlock just goes along with it because he doesn't want to reveal anything about what is really going on. I mean the episode is called The Lying Detective after all.
JOHN … I’m going to make a deduction. SHERLOCK Okay. That’s good. JOHN And if my deduction is right, you’re going to be honest, and tell me, okay? SHERLOCK Okay. Though I should mention it is possible for any given text alert to become randomly attached to an entirely different - JOHN Happy Birthday. SHERLOCK … Thank you, John, that’s very kind. Sherlock now avoiding John’s gaze - like a teenager quizzed by his parents about his girlfriend. JOHN Never knew when your birthday was. SHERLOCK Well now you do.
I've developed a fascination in Mollcroft a decade later than I should have, now everyone must suffer for it.
