Sorry - but I just felt an overwhelming desire for this. Again.

I thought so too .Weird. If the manipper had used a Benedict image instead of a Sherlock one, maybe it would've worked better. Or maybe put a tri-corn hat over all that mane of hair. ???

The BSoS, with straining buttons. Mmm.

They could have used a Frankenstein pic with the sideburns.

@Tobe: Benedict fiddling with props - I love it how his personal quirks steal themselves into the performance.

Considering the fact that this prop is a phone worth 18,000 pounds or so...

You know what I think now? All my shirts have straining buttons, maybe I should call them also " "-SoS

Great idea: The pink and green floral SoS - The discreet check pattern SoS - The cerise polka dot SoS...
I feel a thud coming...

ashtrays but the BSoS is working everytime! just wondering about the straining buttons. doesn´t seem that the shirts are too small for him - maybe it´s because the width of his shoulders? just scientific research.

tobeornot221b · February 13, 2013 9:47 pm

No, it's because of him breathing!
Breathing isn't boring, after all...

SusiGo · February 13, 2013 9:50 pm

No, it's because he was slimmer in season 1. Honestly, just look at his face. Not that he's gotten fat, far from that, just a bit more muscular. So let the buttons strain!

Mrs.Wenceslas · February 13, 2013 9:52 pm

oh yes, go on, boy

Harriet · February 13, 2013 9:54 pm

plop

Mrs.Wenceslas · February 13, 2013 9:58 pm

btw - did you mean musculature like this?

now I really understand IP Pavlov´s theories....

SusiGo · February 13, 2013 9:58 pm

Yes, that's what I was thinking of, Mrs W. Are you talking about the drooling reflex? Now this is really getting distasteful.

On the topic of straining buttons, found this on tumblr (source slashfilled-mind) :

We should start a "save the buttons" volunteer group!

Mmm, the pic with the guns, both flesh and carbon steel. Yum. Drool, yes, indeed. Ahem.

OMG, the giant pic again! And, yes, I'm all for starting a save the buttons" group.

Mattlocked · February 14, 2013 9:08 am

Giant blue muscles for breakfast. Thanks, that's just great! No buttons to save here, though.

Mrs.Wenceslas · February 14, 2013 9:32 am

My pleasure this is really good pic - any other muscles/buttons one?

I know this is getting old but I thought you'd like it anyway.
