Really upsetting that we’ll be never know what the men of the Franklin Expeditions voices sounded like…. What if real John Irving sounded like a Scottish Elmo? Or Crozier sounded like an Irish Morgan Freeman? What if Fitzjames really did have a bad lisp?? We’ll never know and that haunts me

Interesting to think about Joplittle in the sense that they are the two people who Crozier allows to know the extent of his alcoholism. Jopson because he trusts him to provide the alcohol, be discreet, and care for him. Little because he knows he can bully him into finding it for him and he doesn’t care enough about his opinion to be embarrassed about it…

Blanky: “Francis in this bloody cold no one should be out there for more than half an hour”
Crozier: “you’re right”
Little: “no whisky in Erebus’s storeroom”
Crozier: “well you better stroll your happy ass back over there through the cold and steal some from my mortal enemy who I’m definitely not sexually attracted to”
Little:

Hmmm when you think about it… the Arctic is kinda like the opposite of the beach that makes you old. Instead of hot place that makes you old you get cold place that kills you young :)

Jack Aubrey was taken aback entirely. 'But you surely do not mean that last word literally?'
'No, sir. It is just my coarse way of speaking: I beg pardon. But so serious that if she were there at the table day after day . . .'

I think the single most fantastical and unrealistic thing that happens in The Terror is John Ross and James Clark Ross sitting next to each other in the scene where Sophia and Lady Jane address the admiralty/Arctic Council. No way. I don’t think you could have put JCR, John Ross, and John Barrow in the same room without an incident let alone have them sit next to each other good lord

Crozier telling Edward to get whisky from James’ personal stores is so funny to me cause like James is so clearly a fruity vodka or gin drink girly ONLY. She is NOT drinking whisky… Wine is good too cause she can swirl the glass for effect when telling stories

Sophia Cracroft’s comment about Crozier being an “indifferent speller” is even funnier when you realize he spelled Jopson’s name “Jobson”
