Please see the most recent MOD NOTE and ADDENDUM


(updated 5 July)


Good evening ladies and gentlemen (and good day to you too, inhabitants of the other side of the world). As always - this isn't a captain speaking but I come bearing news nonetheless.

It has been brought to my attention today(/night) by our good friend OxfortTweed, that a Chatter Post might work quite well for our fandom.

I'm inclined to agree with him.


As such, here you have a brand-spanking-new post to chatter, Brit-pick, ask questions, debate, gossip, gush and generally indulge in any fannish activity that does not fall under the category of posting or filling prompts. I hope you all enjoy it

The usual guidelines apply, but mostly:

-  Please be respectful to one another.

-  Don't bash other (non)anon's comments/questions/ideas/etc.

-  Have fun

Now go forth, chat amongst yourselves and enjoy. I am of course on stand, so if any problems arise, feel free to drop me a line.

And if you stumble across any plot bunnies here, please just drop them off home at the Prompt-Post, the rest of the herd will be overjoyed to meet them.


Or as they say in Limerick

It's been brought to my attention we are needing
A place for discussion, not reading
I hope this post will do
I'll leave the rest to you
And Beware of the plot bunnies breeding

Sorry if the poem is rubbish - I literally haven't written one since grade five.


REALLY IMPORTANT ADDENDUM



According to numerous Child Safety laws it is illegal to provide pornographic material to minors. Seeing that the majority of the stuff we have here is rather adult in nature, this Meme is consequently an 18+ zone. Failing to comply to this rule could result in the Meme getting shut down. So if you're here and you're under 18 please back button now.

Please do not post anything regarding minors in a sexual situation. It really doesn't matter how tasteful or crass it is, there are laws that classify that sort of thing as child pornography and as such, I'm afraid we're going to have to go with the attitude that safe is better than sorry.

It really is VERY important that these rules are upheld as the consequences are severe.

Other than that - go crazy guys. Any problems please just message me and I'll try my best to work it out.

He does have freckles though, most noticeably in the Marie Claire shoot he did. I guess they're not very noticeable or he wears enough makeup to cover them up most of the time? Either that or I'm working off the wrong googled definition of Day Walker. XD

He does have freckles but they rather come and go. I assume like a lot of people they're somewhat seasonal and get more prominent the more time you spend in the sun. (Also, yes... TV and photoshoot makeup cover pretty much everything.)

In a clear, unairbrushed photo like this (http://www.contactmusic.com/pics/l/princes_trust_3_180308/benedict_cumberbatch_5105304.jpg) (or, for lulz, this (http://www.aceshowbiz.com/images/wennpic/tamara_drewe_25_wenn2989071.jpg)) he has a couple scattered little spots, but I wouldn't call him freckled. You have to have, like, a critical mass to be "freckled", not so few you can count them on one hand. :p (I have four, and nobody has ever described me as "freckled".) He could have more that he covers all the time with makeup, but I think that is his natural coloring.

/giving this too much thought.

Where by 'thought' you mean 'the tedious in-depth examination of photos of Benedict Cumberbatch, oh what a chore, someone save me'? :P

A daunting, arduous, and thoroughly unpleasant task, to be sure, but I thought I'd take one for the team.

(Actually, this sort of thing just makes me wonder why, when Cumberbatch really is a bizarrely, intensely attractive man for how objectively odd-looking he is, I still inexplicably lust after Mark Gatiss?)

There is nothing inexplicable about it! Mark Gatiss is incredibly clever, geeky and talented. He met his boyfriend while chatting about grammar! I will never get over how sweet that is. ♥ He's probably one of the few celebrities whose twitters I can actually stand to read, and that says quite a lot.

All true, and that is an adorable how-we-met story. I think he's married now. (I find him physically attractive, too. Is that weird? I suppose my taste in men has never run toward the classically handsome.) His is also one of the only celebrity twitter feeds I enjoy reading (unless public radio personalities count. ...which they don't.)

Oh I dunno, he is quite freckly sometimes. They do come and go though.
