Couldn't leave it in the reblog tags, so poignant that they might be having "goodbye dinner" 😭

The Terror Rewatch: episode 3. Does anyone know anything about why they still set Lieut. Gore's place at the wardroom table?

Just seems absolutely peculiar to me that they're setting his place out at the table (nice china & silverware and all) when he's died.

POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS: i am not a creep. i am not a weirdo. i do know what the hell i’m doing here. i do belong here

Some people say that there are no stupid questions, which is blatantly false. Of course there are stupid questions, and if you have one, you had better ask it, before you go and do make a stupider mistake. Stupid questions are more important than intelligent ones. I’m willing to bet more people die because of stupid mistakes than because of intelligent ones.

Terror rewatch, ep 1: just noticed it was Collins (as second master) who *sent* Billy Orren up top - specifically to teach another AB his knots! And it's Lieut. Le Visconte (aka Dundy) who won't let Collins try to save Orren after he falls -- notably, it's Collins who knows Orren's name and not Dundy -- perhaps presaging the Lieutenant's callousness about the men later?

All killer no filler in this shitpost, 5/5 stars, will probably reblog again!

Reblog if you think asexuality is a legitimate sexuality.

I'm trying to prove something.

Terror rewatch: ep 2. Can't stop thinking about the scene where (fake) Hickey's caulking the captain's seat of ease then he & Crozier have a drink. I think he gives himself away *twice*. Firstly he uses a slur (or at least, a rude word) for Irish *catholics* about himself & by extension Crozier. Yes, Crozier was Irish & suffered prejudice from that, but he was Church of Ireland/Protestant! Unsure if (real) Hickey was Catholic or not, but being from Limerick, he certainly wouldn't use that word of himself (slur reclamation wasn't a thing yet, yo!). Secondly, when they toast -- Hickey's clearly never heard of/is unsure of why Crozier toasts "Ourselves, then" (as, he later says, a bad joke). It's because of this (screenshot from wiki attached)

The Royal Navy do seated toasts every day at wardroom dinners -- Crozier asks what day it is, it's Wednesday, then says "Ourselves, then" because that's Wednesday's toast! Hickey (though not an officer) should be familiar with this already, but he's *not* - because he's an impostor! I think Crozier's suspicious of him from this point on, because of both these reveals, but is too depressed/alcoholic/distracted to actually *do* anything about it.
