As seen on tumblr:

"Martin Freeman is 40??? I didnt know he was so fucking old! Dude is OOOOLD."

Oh tumblr, I stabbeth thee.

Can't wait for someone to break it to her that Benedict is only a couple years younger.

Oh, for fuck's sake.

The funny thing is that Martin is not a young looking guy. Ben could pass for younger than his age but Martin looks his age and then some. The guy went from looking like a 14 year-old until he hit 35 and now he could pass for 45-50. Maybe it's beyond teenagers, I dunno. I can't remember that far back. LOL

Looking at my op I realize I've begun collecting short blond men in my fandoms. John and Illya would rock a shooting range and then knock back some brews together.

I don't know the fandom, but I want this fic. (Yes, I know. I have deficiencies, especially wrt MFU.)

All you need to know is that Illya is a Russian spy BAMF. In my head fic John knows just a smidge of Russian (because I want to imagine Martin Freeman's voice speaking Russian). Mmmmm

[rosewildeirish]

*cackles* More of the more 'seasoned' men for those of us who are ooooooooooold, too. :D

[green_key]

Amen to that, sister!

While Martin looks pretty dang good for a 40 year old, its pretty clear he's not 25 anymore. And while Benedict doesn't quite look 36 yet, I'm starting to notice his aging when I compare recent photos of him to what he looked like in some of his younger roles (Hawking in particular for some reason). He's aging like a fine wine though-- only getting more handsome!

I looooove Benedict's little face lines. The eye crinkles. The smile lines. The forehead darkening and age freckles. He wears them so very well. I never reblog pics that have Photoshopped them out.

He's aging like a fine wine though-- only getting more handsome!

Oh so agreed!

[fujitsu01]

Pretty much all this. It's his imperfections that make him so handsome (in my opinion, anyway).

Yup!

HAHAHAHAHAHA omg.

Yesterday I saw a post by someone moaning about her life was almost over now that she has to get a job and start college. As it turned out, she is 17. SEVENTEEN WTF. *shakes cane*

[green_key]

LOL!! You have to love it. Youth truly is wasted on the young.

I saw a tumblr post made by a 14 y-o that was mocking 50SoG and having a poke at "old" people who write such things, and that 14 year olds write better smut. Sweetie, ya know who thinks smut written by 14 year olds is hot? OTHER 14 YEAR OLDS.

This is why I prefer Rupert Graves. Holmes and Watson can have each other, give *me* Lestrade!

[capra_maritimus]

*thumbs up*

[green_key]

Go, girl! I love me some salt-n-pepper!

Do you have a pairing(s) with Lestrade? I've become very fond of Mycroft/Lestrade myself.
