Hm. This is all good to meditate on. I very much like the idea of something I can then translate into one of our interludes - like doing the shopping as a present. I think I'd quite like to write John and Sherlock out grocery shopping. Ugh, that would require quarryquest to work overtime as I've only been in shops in London very briefly.
I'm actually toying with the notion that the bottle contains something other than a liquid. A note, perhaps? I kind of want to go for - a genie - but on the other hand want to keep the story firmly in RL.
I quite like fanciful!Mycroft as well. I think whatever he's assembling is something that he's over-complicating. He's flying things in and being all secretive and telling people off because they're interrupting his working on it and he ends up with a can opener or something.

Yes, Molly might be good. Having just read Pargoletta's fic Nearer My God to Thee - highly recommended, by the way http://pargoletta.livejournal.com/tag/nearer%20my%20god%20to%20thee - I was meditating on bringing in Sarah to poke fun at Sherlock in a dress.
