[Mycroft's wrestled with variations of the question for some time. How far would he go to save Sherlock? Beyond power and reason? To the point where he'd destroy other people to ensure his safety?

How far would he go? As far as Eurus?
Was this obsession? He hasn't had a chance to step back throughout all of this. To look at anything objectively. But right now, he really didn't want to.
Mycroft's voice comes through, clipped.]

[And he hangs up. He'd worry later about John. He'd try to get to Sherlock as soon as possible now.]
