Some of your hcs about less popular terror characters? A question, though not that weird of one
My good friend @georges-chambers! Thank you so much!
This is a fun one... I don't tend to dig as deep into the outer reaches of the muster lists as you do (it's one of the things I really admire about you), but I do have some big thoughts about characters who have barely any lines.
Henry Thomas Dundas Le Vesconte:
I've told you this before in private messages, but upon rewatch, I've discovered a sort of... characterization anchor? for my headcanons about our favorite casually mutinous, grey-haired Victorian babe—namely, that no matter how little he respects some of the people above him on the chain of command, he has a deep respect for the existence of the chain of command and the structures and regulations of the Royal Navy. He may not think Crozier or Little are fit for command, but he's very aware that they outrank him, and his actions and behaviors reflect this.
My unpopular headcanon is that Little didn't kill him. I don't know how this got to be considered almost a given fact by the fandom. I like the concept, but I don't know if Little would have been able to bring himself to do that.
Sir James Clark Ross:
This is probably a common headcanon, but I ship him and Francis Crozier as platonic AND romantic AND a secret third thing. I just know they were doing Left Hand Of Darkness activities on the Antarctic ice. Fellas, is it gay to lick the ice from your buddy's eyelid and lashes when his eye has frozen shut? How about if you've found the thing you don't earn, and can't keep, and often don't even recognize at the time... together?
Thanks, @georges-chambers!
Ask me questions!
