So, Sherlock's pretty much outed the fact that Lestrade's marriage is over in ASiB. He did so in the presence of a lot of gossips. (John, naturally, is the worst of the lot.)
So, it gets around London (Earth? The Milky Way?) that Lestrade is going to be single soon and people start coming out of the woodwork to try and snag him.
Who wins our dear DI's heart?
(I'm actually fine with het or slash pairings just not much of a mystrade fan.)
Bonuses:
-Moriarty sends Lestrade a naughty package in the post. -Sherlock's plan backfired. He wanted to ensure Lestrade's bachelor status for his own benefit and now he has hordes of people blocking his path! -Lestrade's team may or may not be offering insider info on their boss's whereabouts at any given time for the right price. -Lestrade turning the tables and chasing after the person he wants. -Mycroft actually has a plan in place for this eventuality. Otherwise, London would have been thrown into chaos. -Lestrade is oblivious then shocked and feeling hunted and desperate as he dodges and weaves his way through the city. OR -Lestrade was actually expecting the reactions; he had them the first time around before he married his wife, which is why he was so angry at Sherlock for outing him.
WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE. JUST MAKE IT AWESOME AND CRACKY (or not!cracky's good too).
Lestrade's Back on the Market!
