It was the last night of Benedict as the Creature.
Benedict and Jonny just hugged like crazy before the final bow.
Benedict was crying.
Be still my beating heart. I can’t even.
HOLY FUCK.
I’m adrift.

Fic: To Prove That I Could →
Decided to revisit an old draft of a Victor/Creature fic after seeing Marie’s gorgeous Frankenstein art. Mostly, Victor’s thoughts while building his creature, 400 words, for your enjoyment.
So...

I’m Frankenstein-arting. (better?)

What doesn’t make you a Sherlockian:
You’ve read the entire canon and know every little detail by heart.
You’ve read biographical books pertaining to Sherlock Holmes (William S. Baring Gould).
You’ve written countless research papers, essays, and theses on Holmes and/or Conan Doyle.
Your…

Frankenstein Tickets on eBay
Since Marie was talking about them in this here post, I did a search just out of curiosity.
There are several people doing this and tickets are going for around £200+.
I don’t even know what to say.
YAAAARRGGH!

marielikestodraw replied to your post: My Weekend is Mapped Out
I might dress up as a Pirate, for the sake of it :D
I may seriously rummage through my wardrobe at some point and see if I can muster anything remotely piratey.
Holy shit we are doing this.
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. Will need a fabulous moustache as well, for Rohan.
Fabulous moustaches are my...

Did I miss something?

My knitting yarn has arrived, I got my DVDs from HMV (and so did everyone else judging by how much was sold out) and all I need to do tonight is remember to buy bread and teabags. Once that’s done the following will be happening:
Friday: Avoid TV like the plague day. Box sets and knitting…

There are things that really REALLY pisses me off.
One of the thing, in the past months, has been the whole situation with THE CRAZY in the fandom. I’m pretty calm about it on a general basis, I’ve watched from afar, and having been “involved” in the fuckery early on, I’ve taken my distances...

Headcanon song for Sherlock and John
Since we were talking about headcanon songs for Sherlock Holmes and John Watson individually, how about one that fits both of them?
Tumblr, I give you Heroes, by Catie Curtis (if anyone can find a vid that’d be amazing)
You used to save your sister You used to be the boy You cannot say your cap gun To you was just a toy I’m still hoping that you are not made of steel Superman is all...
I am never doing that again...
Have a nap now and enjoy the show!

10 hours in a queue with MarieLikesToDraw. IT WAS SO COLD. At least the people were really friendly and we just chatted all night/morning. BUT FUCK IT WAS COLD. At least we’re in the front row. SO COLD.
Damn you Frankenstein *shakes fist*
Frankenstein Closing Night Song

Well, there is always Green Day’s “21 Guns” for John-before-he-met-Sherlock :)

There are a lot of songs that I associate with John. One that I particularly like is Leonard Cohen’s “I’m Your Man”. Lyrics this-a-way. Particularly these bits are just very John to me:

There Is A Crack In Everything →
I haven’t crossposted any fic on here for way too long. This situation clearly needs to be fixed.
Title: There Is A Crack In Everything Rating: PG-13 Notes: Fic challenge entry for the prompt “Older/Younger”. I went for “Younger” and an idea that’s been coursing around my system since I first rewatched the show: Sherlock growing up - as a transman. Summary:...

Marie likes to draw: Frankenstein Q/A and rant. →
It’s kind of sad that this even needs to be said but, yes, it does need to be said, so reblogging to get the word out.
marielikestodraw:
Frankenstein again tomorrow, followed by Q/A with Danny Boyle, Johnny Lee Miller and Benedict Cumberbatch.
I’ll be a bit harsh here, don’t hold it against me, and think about why I’m saying it.
For everyone who is going, I beg you, NO Sherlock question...

Cabin Pressure
Much enjoyed the recording for Cabin Pressure yesterday. Wherein Benedict Cumberbatch was not (due to loss of voice), his stand-in Tom Goodman Hill was amazing, John Finnemore was adorable as ever, Roger Allam did some singing, Anthony Stewart Head was caught in the Giggle Loop with the audience, and yours truly was in the front row, ten feet away from all of this, thanks to a spare ticket from a...
