okay but i need ALL of the fics that take place during crozier getting sober. like i feel like there is SO much potential here bc it is THEE biggest turning point for him! esp with regards to fitzjames and their relationship. like fitzjames seeing crozier's choice to sober up as this huge defining moment, one that ultimately and unequivocally earns his respect (back, really, because he DID have respect for crozier at first, before he met him. and now he sees that that respect wasnt misgiven, not really). and like the way this choice is what causes the first crack in james' mask around crozier! ugh it's just DELICIOUS.

#i just want to see ALL of the fics where james sits by francis' bedside while hes sleeping uneasily #ALL the fics where james takes care of francis #ALL the fics where james takes that first step towards repairing their relationship #perhaps apologizing — not for having called franics out because that was needed but for the way he did it.#stooping so low as to use sir john's words against him only sharper #maybe james holding francis' clammy hand while he sleeps fitfully and whispering to him about the way he'd hoped francis would be when they #met and how now he thinks that may still be possible because he knows franics must be a good man beneath the drink #maybe the first conversation the two of them have with francis clear headed and hes already holding himself differently — more assuredly #more confident and yet softer around the edges too #and they clear the air between them too #idk im just rambling now but #I JUST LOVE THIS PERIOD FOR THEM OKAY #there is SO much potential #that being said fjdkskd if yall got any recs PLEASE send em my way (they could be for smth like this or anything really!!)#the terror #fitzier #francis crozier #james fitzjames
