We should celebrate Ben's birthday... 19 July.  8)

Last year Final Problem started the Cakebook of Sherlock Holmes.  In case you needed ideas to celebrate any birthday, Ben's, your own, fellow fans -- go and check these cakes out!

If you were at Cheltenham Lit Festival 2012, you saw the cake delivered to Ben already.  Then pictures of the cake hit Twitter and tumblr.  I love that Ben's friends Tweet to us such things.

P.S.  Ben says he enjoys being considered handsome.

Mostly but not all mild setlock.

Eventually, more setlock to come, of course -- but this is a short post.  Sorry!

Mild setlock of Sherlock in That Hat and Sherlock being dorky; ummm, hi, Benedict!  Also here, slightly disheveled Sherlock.  Along with smiling Sherlock.  The purple shirt.


A Johnlock special, or so it will seem.

Mild setlock of Sherlock and John standing at the door of 221B here and near a window here.


NOT minor setlock from Reichenbach and therefore s3 ep 1.

Explanation of "I'm the real" with a bit of setlock that it came from.

Tangent: sponsored by tumblr.

All about Sherlock's two brothers, Mycroft and John.

These are s2, remember, so you have just entered the spoiler zone.

Mycroft and John gif set.  John gif telling it how it is.

About Mycroft's Post-Its from The Casebook (definite spoilers!).

Mycroft, Sherlock... and Mark.  I believe that Mycroft is established as having deduced faster than Sherlock in the pictured scene.  Unless having Sherlock send John to confirm Sherlock's deductions counts against that -- and unless the Holmes brothers are keeping track of who's faster, I don't think that counts.

That's from this post.  8)  If you want some s3 comments of a vague but happy-making nature about the Holmes brothers, enjoy!

We do love RF feels, don't we?

More fan art...  Being the Holmes brothers.  Must I spell it out for you?

And if you hadn't seen the poster for the next part of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug... enjoy!  For those who still resist our Cumbercollective, you must obey the STID enlistment poster (via @USSBakerStreet).

Sherlocked:  Sherlock pointing down at the spoiler zone for season 2, etc.

Do you believe?

Cumberbatched moments:  Casual Ben, looking cool.  Gorgeous smiling posh alien.  Monochrome with that smile.

Where season 2 spoilers are:

Speaking of fan art... Buzzfeed has some here with a particular theme (January 2012):  I believe in Sherlock Holmes.  Don't you?

But in case that made you cry too much, The Woman has a solution of her very own...  A simple (gif) message from Dear Jim.

Not really setlock:  The hug is confirmed as s3 filming (temporarily) is wrapped on ep 2!

So true. #Sherlock twitter.com/ItsOnlyJustine…

Images, art, and the Cumbercollective.

Fan art of a certain sad little hobbit (LOTR).  When something happens in your fandom but...

More fan art:  And if you'd rather get your hug from Andrew, wellll... sort of! then tumblr provides!

Cumberbatched:  Cumberfinger pointing.  Photoset of Ben all spiffed up, probably London premiere of Trek.  Ben dressed as Sherlock but the smile is purely Ben -- not really setlock. 8)  Swooning over Ben as Sherlock (mostly monochrome).

Everybody loves... fan vids. 8)

Of course these fan vids involve season 2, so beware spoilers if you haven't seen 2012 Sherlock.

Now if you had to describe Sherlock or Moriarty, would you pick this song?
