"We suspected East was not our brightest star to follow"

I'm currently doing a rewatch of The Terror with my merry band of IRLs known as the Gay Pirates. However, for the duration of our Terror watch, we have rechristened ourselves the Gay Boat Cannibals.

Every time I watch this show—this will be my third watch overall—I realize what a horrible go of it the lieutenants specifically are having. Having just rewatched episode 2, I’m very struck by how haunted Lieutenant Hodgson looks after returning from the leads party—the only other character with that much of a thousand-yard stare that early on is Collins.

And on returning, Sir John tells him, “We suspected East was not our brightest star to follow”

If I were Lt. Hodgson, I’d be wondering, “Did Sir John really just send me out into unknown horrors just to own Captain Crozier?"

I think he did—or at least, that he assigned the Terror lieutenant to the eastern party for not-unrelated reasons.

Can we talk about James' amazing lines/scenes? - Talking about Tuunbaq: "Mr. Teeth and Claws" - Slandering that poor ship's boy: "Your nails are a terror" - The whole hip hip horary scene - After Doctor McDonald is explaining David Young's condition: "That's a vivid description" - To the Terror Lieutenants: "You terrors"

Foaming at the mouth imagining what would've happened if the doctor on Terror wasn't Macca, but Stanley. If they were switched.

Bitter Man on Bitter Man violence.

Can you imagine the withdrawal? They'd start biting each other. Or they would be best buddies. I honestly don't know which is worse

[saints-who-never-existed]

Currently sitting on my lunchbreak rotating in my mind the idea of Little actually standing up to Crozier about his drinking only to be brutally punished as a boy as a result.

I wish I could say I was only enamoured by the fallout of such a theoretical event, by plot and themes and whatnot, but let's be real, I'm actually just enamoured by the idea of sweet Nedward vulnerable, humiliated, with his peachy wee arse on show. 👀

she has that sadness in her eyes that you only see in alcoholic captains of doomed arctic expeditions

one thing about me is i can excuse basically any crime if you serve enough cunt. murder, piracy, arson, cannibalism, theft, all of that is ok for me if you’re real sexy about it. i have a purely vibes-based morality system

Do you ever go insane...do you ever lose your mind...

[leadandblood]

I think it's safe to assume that at James' funeral, all the people present chose to be there. The rest of the men are by the boats doing their thing or resting.

Each one of these men chose to be there. Hartnell probably volunteered to sew him up, too, because he felt it was right.

I'm too mind-blank from writing a fic, but there's so much to talk about and consider. All the reasons for each one of them being there...
