Have gone and joined. :) Gah, I need to finish my silly WIPs so I can get to a couple of ideas I had regarding the female cast.
Oh, and let me FLAIL MADLY because I am in love with your female Holmes icon. Claudia Black is PERFECT for Holmes, and she's one of those actresses I think is incredibly gorgeous (and she has honest-to-goodness eyebrows!) I approve. I've been wanting to mention that for a while, but figured that commenting solely to fangirl over you icon was a little silly.
And I totally wouldn't have minded, because I am embarrassingly in love with these icons. She's perfect, isn't she? Gorgeous in an odd, ethereal-yet-razor-sharp sort of way. That wasn't even the best picture of her for a female Holmes, either--I just really wanted it to match my Watson icon.
I confess I don't recognize the actress in the Watson icon - who is she? Meanwhile, all this thinking about Claudia Black has made me want to watch more Farscape.
Confession: I've never actually seen Farscape! I'm vaguely conversant in it, much as I'm vaguely conversant in things like Trek, but I have yet to get around to an extended viewing.
Watson is Jessica Hynes. I only know her from an excellent job she did in a two-parter of Doctor Who. She's smiling like crazy in most of her photos and not really Watson at all, but this photo sold me. It's straight from her IMDB profile.
Hee! I also love your icons (especially Watson, she's just perfect). I love Boston Marriage and it's neat that you are starting up a community for the kind of stories you love :) I expect an explosion of Irene-centric fic once the next series airs, as I think episode one is going to be their update of "A Scandal in Bohemia." I wait with baited breath for the Boston Marriage sequel!
Also, I think I'm enough of an ACD geek to get the comm title reference. It sounds like the end of "The Copper Beeches," when Watson expresses disappointment that Holmes takes no further interest in Violet Hunter after she ceases to be the center of a case :)

Run away or wait in happy anticipation. Whichever. :) I seriously love beta reading, though, and I'm looking forward to this!

That's the best reason to start a comm, I think. :) I certainly hope you're right about Adler fic--I hope the show does her justice.
And you're perfectly correct about the title reference!

I should start cross-posting Wisdom here... whenever I, um, get around to posting the second chapter. Hmm, and Philadelphia might be appropriate.

Wait, you've posted more fic? *needs to follow her DW feed more closely*

Yes, it's the first chapter of the Anthea fic. It's here.
