Mycroft paid little attention to John's reaction as he looked the child over. He was gentle, William didn't wake or even stir. Sherlock for his part, could see and feel the anger in John, and decided to try to end this .
But Mycroft beat him to it.
"My dear Japhrimel." Mycroft said, turning to John after he responded to him. "I have no doubts that you and Sherlock wants what's best for this child, and will attempt to give it to him."His tone was calm on the surface, but there was an undercurrent of danger. It was obvious that Mycroft did not fear John in the least.
"But he is of my blood as well, the blood of the First Born, and my progeny, and I will continue to ensure that he is safe from improper influences and learns the ways of the Old Ones." He leaned his head in a bow to John, then nodded to Sherlock. "I will be in touch. Give the child proper care." He threw John's words back at him, then he went through the portal, where it closed behind him.
