Ladies and gentlemen, Detective Don Flack

Flack: "Her classmate, Alexa Holdman, found her when she was practicing one of those 'twirly' things."

Mac: "A pirouette?"

Flack: "Like I said, 'twirly thing'."

Hawkes: "COD is most likely asphyxiation."

Flack: "You need an exam for that? She was hung up by a rope...!"

Flack: "Alright, I might not be the owner of a wonderful white lab coat, but it sounds to me that you're saying someone strangled her and then strung her up."

Flack: "Mac Taylor in the lounge with a Glock."

What would we do without Don Flack?

Our "Strange" Encounter With Benedict Cumberbatch

My name is Rene Rosa and I’m one of the managers over at JHU Comic Books in Manhattan. I’ve had my fair share of cool run-ins, celebrity encounters and fanboy dream moments, but nothing prepared me for what happened on April 4th, 2016. Dr. Strange was filming on 32nd street, just mere feet away from our store’s door, and as I was working, my friend Z. Lee came by. (He’s the one that took the pictures you’ve been seeing all over the net.“) Well, during the day, the crew came in to check out the place because they were shocked to see a comic book store where they were filming. The bulk of the crew is based out of the UK and there are very few comic book stores there. They apologized a bunch of times about how the street was going to be mostly closed down for the bulk of the day for shooting and many of them came in to buy stuff. Seriously, these guys were incredibly nice and considerate. Then, at one point, one of the producers joked about how great it would be to have Benedict come into the store in costume. Of course, I didn’t know he was one of the producers, at the time. I told him that if he did, I would lose my damn mind.

A couple of hours later and in walks Dr. Strange. Everyone there was excited, laughing and couldn’t believe it. Benedict Cumberbatch was incredibly nice, gracious and he and I went back and forth with some banter for a little bit before he had to go right back out and shoot more scenes. He didn’t have time to do much more than shake hands, talk and take a few pictures, but we totally understood that and were lucky just to have him in! Z. decided a comparison picture was in order and handed him “The Oath.” I was able to get my picture with him and then he had to go. The whole thing lasted no more than a few minutes, but luckily we were able to get some pictures of it and the very few of us that were there have some unforgettable memories.

I don’t usually get star-struck, but it’s a different situation when one of the best actors of our time is standing before you in full costume, in your store, while filming the big-budget movie of a character you’ve loved since you were a small child. I felt like a 5 year-old.

Kleiner Zusatz: Ihr könnt 10 Wohlfahrtsmarken im Set kaufen, die kleben dann auch selber. Achtet aber darauf das ihr bei Internationalen Sendungen viele einzelne Werte noch draufkleben müsst, da unsere ja diese netten 3 cent dazu bekommen haben O.O

Ein Internationaler Brief oder Postkarte kostet 0,75 cent ;)

To my german readers:

Hallo allerseits! :) Falls jemand abseits der Weihnachtskarten Aktion noch ein Bisschen was Gutes tun will: bei der Post gibt es sogenannte Wohlfahrtsmarken zu kaufen. Die kosten ein paar Cent mehr als die Üblichen, was dann einem guten Zweck zugeführt wird. Art des Zweckes oder Wert sind dabei frei wählbar aus einer Liste. Leider klappt das direkte Verlinken gerade nicht (oder ich stelle mich nur gerade dumm an?), auf der Webseite der Post dürfte aber mehr dazu zu finden sein.

and more Setlock

Defying gravity, huh?! (NOT what you think now!) Spoiler’ish for location and scene…

I'm dying right now! I just read the new chapter from Possibilities and Certainties and the author left it with the worst cliffhanger ever! I don't think that I will be able to sleep tonight...

Note to self: don't create cliffhanger too often, fans who are as addicted to a story like me will certainly not feel well.

OH I'M SO LOVING THIS!

I am frustrated because there is no update for any of my favorite Gelphie stories on fanfiction.net

I am even more frustrated because I don't know how to write my own new chapter and keep staring onto the word document...

And on top of that: I'm sick and can't concentrate properly.

I need something to cheer me up!
