O.RE.SA-MIAN

10 second footage from the new Sherlock series and the whole fandom has gone batshit crazy on Tumblr and gif'd/cap'd/analyzed/flailed over absolutely everything in the ten minutes that followed the teaser's release; as some infamous bloggers said, when the actual series will start, we probably won't survive. 2012, guys. The Mayans predicted this. Ovaries exploding all over the globe. We're fucked.

Here is the whole BBC trailer for their new programs, including the Sherlock bits: http://www.spoilertv.com/2011/08/uk-promo-featuring-new-sherlock-footage.html

And here's the Sherlock footage extracted from the trailer:






Yessss Masteeeeer! (°ç°)//

Here we go, no stupid categories, no gifs. This is just the tip of the iceberg, I needed to post this now to get started, but there will be more rec posts to come, if only to get some organization in all the stuff I've faved (and believe me, it goes on forever!).
Most of it is Sherlock/John slash, except when I make the precision it's otherwise.

Comments, as always, are appreciated ^^

( Under the cut there be recs )

So there. That sould keep you occupied for a bit, at least until I return!

Meme stolen from goldylost :

I approves of this result. Although I have doubts about my "organizational skills" (*turns around to look at own room* *bursts laughing nervously*), I do think McGonagall is the coolest character in Harry Potter (in the "official" version of this test, like, IRL, I'm supposed to be ENFP though. Mmmh. This sounds a bit like a horoscope, doesn't it?)
And while I'm here, two vids that make life worth living:
This one made me laugh so hard I think I don't have intestines anymore -- they've decided to go live somewhere quieter (BBC Sherlock):

And this one was made by disastrolabe  (link will direct you to the post on her journal), mixing V for Vendetta and Taio Cruz's "Dynamite", it's FUCKING AWESOME:

Title: Umami
Author: sevenswells 
Beta/Brit-pick: unovis_lj  and zonesthesia ; thank you for being so amazing. It has been a real pleasure working with you on this. <3
Rating: PG-13
Fandom/Pairing: BBC's Sherlock, Sherlock/John
Warnings: shameless food porn, but I do hope that kind of thing doesn't shock you
Genre: food fic laced with comedy sprinkled with a bit of crack and fluffy slash on the side
Summary: John tries to get Sherlock to eat. The thing is, even if he doesn't look it, Sherlock is quite the hedonist, and would only eat tasty stuff. So John's plan is to become the best cook Sherlock has ever known.
Comments: About the title: in her book Garlic and Sapphires, the famous food critic Ruth Reichl describes "umami" as "the Japanese taste that cannot be described. It is when something is exactly right for the moment."
I've put in this fic some of the dishes that I love the most, including sushi; if you want to know more about the food and the recipes described in the fic, go to this link: http://sevenswells.livejournal.com/69420.html#cutid1

( He hadn't been able to discern the pattern because it had been hidden by another. Sherlock's photosynthesis. )

The adorable, adorable as_i_am  completed our art/fic exchange (NC-17, not safe for work) with awesome lulzy Sherlock/John porn. The prompt I gave her was to write the story behind this other drawing I did (again, NC-17, NSFW). She did an absolutely fantastic job of it, and what I love the most about it is the humour she laced into the fic, because I believe it to be one of the main components of this pairing too (it's not all about the darkness and angst and weird kinks, right?).

I can't begin to tell you how crappy I've felt for the past few days (because of various reasons, but end result was basically my self-esteem getting crushed and my heart smashed to pieces) and this lifted my spirits like nobody's business, drowning my brain in endorphins and putting an utterly idiotic smile on my face.

In short:

At first I was --->



But then I was --->


Thank you, darling, you have no idea how much of a gift this is to me, especially today of all days. ♥ 

WTF. Why am I not sleeping? Sorry, I made another one. Maybe I have rabies or something. O____o

So this is kind of a running gag, a reference to these previous strips, and this one I just did.

( I really need to go to sleep T____T )

A few Sherlock comic strips about fic patterns, XKCD-style. (Just don't get me wrong, here, I've read a LOT of fics in this fandom, still reading a lot of them, and the majority of them are really incredibly good, even when they follow either of the two situations described below (sometimes both). Maybe those repetitive patterns are one of the very reasons I love this fandom so much, too. So, anyway, it's just a little affectionate teasing, not serious critique or bashing or anything of the kind.)

Fandom: BBC Sherlock, rating: R just to be safe (very mild sexual content), artist: me. That should cover it. I hope you'll like them!

( I made funnies under the cut )

Never mind the title of this post, you'll just get Sherlock recs for the most part. I hope you're not too dissappoint.

Here below are new categories because I don't like repeating myself, fanvids recs like last time, and the novelties are art recs and comm pimpage, because there are some fantastic comms related to Sherlock out there and art needs to be recced too. Oh and there's one fanmix ^^

The other stuff that has changed is that there are now more pairings other than John/Sherlock (not many, though) and more Gen fics. I'll specify each time it is the case, but when I don't, just assume it's J/S slash.

Stupid gifs and images to illustrate each category you know the drill; it's a little less image-heavy than last time. If you wanna check my previous rec post of doom, here it is. It took me a whole chunk of my spare (hahaha *nervous laugh*) time to put this present post up, so of course comments are love ^^

( No pirates, no zombies, no male strippers, but you'll surely find gay under the cut. )

Fuck me but that was long and fastidious. I hope you'll enjoy, guys, and like last time, if you have anything you want to rec me, feel free to share in the comments.

(BTW, haven't seen the latest Glee yet, I'll bore the hell out of you let you know if I found it any good)

I've just finished watching season 1 of The Office (British version, of course) and I used to be more obsessed with Benny, but now my love for the sexy adorableness that is Martin Freeman is just as strong as my crazy stan obsession for Cumberbatch. Martin's incredibly fucking cute, it's almost too much to bear. I know, I know, it took me way too much time to realize that absolute trufax, don't shout at me like that. Of course I already loved him as John H. Watson, why do you think I'm head over heels for this pairing, it's not just because of Benny, it's because both of them are awesome -- but let's just say that, watching Sherlock, I've been blinded by my crush for Benny first, and with him removed of the equation, I could fully appreciate Martin's adorable sexiness at last.
Now I understand completely the fangirls who say that they want to pinch his cheeks and then shag him senseless (or muss his hair and then blow him). Boy do I understand.


Martin aside, I really loved that first season; that show's really well written and I can't WAIT to watch season 2. British TV shows FTW. I also need to read Sherlock/The Office crossovers now. Recs, anyone?

P.S.: On a side note, the hopeless RPSlasher in me really loves that picture:
( British people. Seriously. )
