Sherlock fangirling and a new icon battle
Still not posting much, it seems. But I am around - reading my flist, Charles/Erik fic, and making icons.
Last week I finished watching season 2 of Sherlock. Now, I thought the first season was okay. I didn't love it, but I remember really liking how it was updated to modern day and the actors were well-cast. Still, I wasn't all "this is bloody fantastic!" But I am now. Is it just me or did season 2 skyrocket the quality? I loved it. I want to forget I watched the episodes and just watch them all again in a mad fannish frenzy of ecstasy. And count me in on loving the first episode with The Woman, Irene Adler. Even though I'm not in the Sherlock fandom, I did hear there was some backlash against her. I'm still... WHAT? Really? I thought her dynamic with Sherlock made the bloody episode.
And I shall now echo every Sherlock fan of all time: only three episodes? BLAH!
As I mentioned, I also made icons! I had an icon battle with dear obaona - which involved us making both X-Men: First Class and Star Wars icons. Here's a preview with some of my favourites.
You can see my icon battle post here (I also have other icons and larger graphics in that post - here's the full lowdown: icon Battle with obaona - 11 XMFC, 11 Star Wars (with alternates); 7 other XMFC; 3 Charles/Erik graphics (various sizing); 33 other Star Wars; 20 Star Trek; 3 Sanctuary). And here's obaona's icon battle post so you can leave a comment on her icons.
