honestly heterosexual jopson is incredibly funny in concept. doing all that and for what????? to not fuck that old man????

[edwardashley]

the thing thats so awesome abt hickeygibson is they literally had no forced plot or job reason to interact, they met and fell in lust and then love and marriage just from seeing a Weird Dude Across the Room and vibes scoping correctly

My Terror fandom Hot Take is that I think it’s weird how little anyone into the real life history side cares about the Inuit who interacted with the FE. Lots of people dig in to the backgrounds of Tozer’s siblings or Irving’s friends, but nobody seems to have heard of Kokleearngnun or Too-shoo-art-thariu. I’ve observed a real lack of curiosity.

Ok, maybe not that weird, seeing as how I’ve blocked multiple people over the years for saying things like “the Inuit were/are liars”. When you’re saying stuff that was considered racist by some Victorians, it’s time to reconsider your views!

i think this is a fair take/critique that i myself can also learn from! for my part i’m very interested in ada blackjack (though i know she’s not involved with the FE), and have also noticed how non-white figures in polar history (e.g., matthew henson) receive relatively so little attention despite how compelling their lives and the obstacles they overcame are. this is not to say everyone has to let go of their white boy blorbo/interest, but expanding your mind beyond them is both imperative and rewarding!

also yeah, absolutely fuck anyone who discounts the firsthand testimonies of the inuit. i’d block their asses too 💯

Day 134

Jopsune Miku

just imagined divorced jopzier 🚬

[knowing-my-fate]

no let's talk about this shit. Because divorced Sophia/crozier is already a nightmare now imagine Jopson where Francis has no idea how to function without him and jopson doesn't actually want to leave Francis alone. Imagine being Jopson's friend and having to drag him bodily away from pulling a "bad idea right?" Every other night

[jopdaughter]

agreed but i feel like jopson doesn't have any friends who would actually care enough to drag him away.

[knowing-my-fate]

THIS this is exactly correct. Jopson leaves work goes straight to crozier's to sit in his car and only goes home to freshen up so the turmoil doesn't show

[armadillorollup]

Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling And a sense of guilt I can't deny

I wonder if anyone on the ship actually liked Jopson, lol. He doesn't seem like the most sociable person, like he's used to keeping to himself. A loyal dog to a despotic and indifferent captain… And I remember how Crozier asked Jopson about the state of affairs on the ship, like "You always know everything." Jopson feigned confusion, but clearly this wasn't the first time they'd had this conversation. I have a headcanon that Crozier is used to Jopson reporting everything to him - about the officers' lives, life on the lower deck, all the important things. Jopson himself feels there's something snitch-like about it, so he always hesitates before responding, but his desire to be useful to the captain outweighs any other considerations. Maybe people know or suspect this about him. Whatever happens, Jopson isn't on their side, he's on the captain's. You have to be careful around him. And the attitude toward him reflects that.
