been seeing homies get deep into "the terror" and making me want to rewatch SO i spent two hours in the dead of night reading the wiki/the subreddit/other linked articles and like. one of those articles was deadass fucked up

there was a woman who spoke inuktitut who was writing a book containing a lot of inuit oral histories, and in nunavut she was able to hear passed-down recollections of when survivors from the franklin expedition were passing through

and like. i can't imagine being an inuit family/group, knowing that europeans exist but having never seen them, seeing 8-9 shambling, blue-skinned, cold-to-the-touch out-of-their-minds white men come wandering by. they invited the men inside their igloos for warmth, for food, to be hospitable. the men refused to eat, refused to speak, and when trade was offered, clutched their possessions close and refused to entertain the idea of trade. this was, offputting, to say the least. the group set them up in their own igloo, with their own fire, and left three whole seals for them to eat. and then they fled cause what the FUCK get out of there. they came back in a few days to check on the strangers. the three seals were completely untouched, while all of the men had killed and eaten each other

i mean. fuck dude. there are obviously pretty dark angles to view the franklin expedition from– honestly can't think of a good angle, it's pure colonialism and british exceptionalism– but that specific interaction, that inuit group who were living lives as normal until a dozen fucking walking dead showed up and did cannibalism. no wonder that story got passed down, i'd be shitting my pants if i saw that

i think a lot about how crozier doesn't care about silna until she leaves him

she rescues him and he immediately tells her we should not be so far north, we must find my men. he doesn't ask. he doesn't even act whatsoever like it's a suggestion. he just expects that she will help him. and then he barely speaks to her until she leaves, at which point he's desperate to go after her— why? because she's the only one who understands what happened to him. still, he wants something from her—now, just her company, but regardless. he doesn't stop to think that she might rather never see him again.

he orders her around like she's one of his crew and she doesn't refuse but that doesn't mean it's right. (besides, kind of hard to refuse or negotiate when you can't speak. she could walk away, but then he would obviously chase after her, and she can't explain herself. easier to just help him, i suppose. what's one more thing, for this man who ruined her life?)

Here's my gift for @hith3r3p33ps for the @dishonoredgiftexchange Fugue Feast

The prompt I chose was "Emily and wolfhounds"

I loved all of the prompt but this one clicked with me and I had so much fun doing it

I thought that since in dh2 there is a bonecharm that makes white wolfhounds attack their owner then what if it also made them non hostile towards the player. And since Emily collects things that she found during the missions then what if she took it a step further.

Bright green eyes.

I know the outsider is more commonly known as the ‘black eyed bastard’ but I will never forget the time I saw his green eyes. He was just a young man robbed of a future
