Benedict Cumberbatch At The ITV Crime Thriller Awards 2010

Martin and Ben on Martin’s last day of The Hobbit filming…

there's something I need to say, I meant to say always but I never have

I want you by my side

Spread the word!

Listen up Sherlockians, when or if the show comes back, we all have to be like "LAZURUS IS GO" because I've just been reminded that we're all being Reichenbached and if or when the show comes back, we need to come back with a bang.

You've heard of the Mishapocolypse, let's do a Sherlockalypse. We'll find the most ridiculous photo of Benedict Cabbagepatch as our pfp too.

sherlock “i’m a cold, logical machine who abhors expressing the softer emotions, but while you’re here, watson, watch me blush when complimented, fall into a reverie at violin concerts, pluck up a rose and wax poetic about it, spend my leisure time looking after bees, laugh loudly at the things which delight me, read love poems as we sit on the train together, and help me let lovers go free because that matters more than the law” holmes

just saying if Dr Stephan Strange went through all those time lines there is no fucking way there wasn't a timeline where he and Tony were together .

has this been done

Ben as Louis Wain

JUST LOOK HOW PERFECT HE IS, I CAN NOT

work still in progress

There’s a lot of talk of John marrying Mary as a way to ‘prove’ his heterosexuality. He felt the need to appear ‘normal’, so he took on a normal life: wife, child, living in the suburbs. If we expand upon this a bit, I think his reaction to Mary when he finds out who she really is is telling. 

He’s not upset that she lied. He’s not upset she has a secret identity. He’s not upset that she shot Sherlock to cover up who she is. No, the thing that appears to upset him the most is that she ‘isn’t normal’. She doesn’t conform to idea of a ‘perfect’, ‘normal’ (aka, heterosexual) life. She isn’t the happy wife in the suburbs with a child, but a highly trained assassin. John chose Mary because he thought he could have a normal life with her. He chose someone who he thought was the exact opposite of Sherlock: wanting to settle down, not go on crazy, dangerous adventures.

But, even in his attempt to chose someone completely opposite to Sherlock, someone he can pretend to be straight with, he still ends up choosing someone who is similar to Sherlock in a lot of ways.
