You should mutiny against your boss 🥰👍
#sure i'll reblog this again#carrying the tozer spirit with me to the picket line#where it is in fact pretty cold although not as cold as the arctic#my beloved nascently class conscious marine sargent#come walk the line with you would love it

#CRYING RIGHT NOW#you put your own song on because YOUR HUSBAND made you#on the playlist of the man who is MORE CONFLICTED because he is MORE LIBERATED#dying#dead

The Terror is unparallelled because you will see men experiencing the most devastating, hopeless tragedies imaginable and then suddenly there's a shot of Edward Little batting the most beautiful eyelashes of all time

Looking at this screenshot of Tozer and he's got a different pattern of welsh wig than the rest of them! It looks like his just has purling (?) or maybe seed stitch instead of the loopies that everyone else has. He's also got a funky little embellishment that almost seems to mimic rank stripes.
Anyone know more about this? (Anyone have a pattern???)
#the terror#costuming#solomon tozer#how have i never noticed this this is literally my icon#i might actually wear this style of welsh wig#soooooo if anyone has a pattern i will pay you for it

Something something Fitzjames and Hodgson are two of the most dandy-ish characters in The Terror but they're also two of the most dangerous; they've both been to war, both do the greatest damage to Tuunbaq using the weaponry they were trained in by the navy (Hodgson with the cannon and Fitzjames with the congreves), and Hodgson is also the one to kill the Inuit family, directly connecting the violence of imperialism with the gentlemanly facade it likes to use.
#DELICIOUS#meta#one of the major reasons i think why fitzgender and hodgender have never quite sat right with me#i love and support everyone for whom it is meaningful#but in canon it's inherent that the Dandyism of both is keeping up a performance of both class AND masculinity#to the point that one is inextricable from the other#all three of which serve to put gilding on violence#they derive class status from being officers and gentlemen#they are allowed this apparently softer form of masculinity because of their class and demonstrated talent for violence#all of these traits reinforce each other so to take one part of it out of the equation misses an essential part#as tags above say they never repent of or even reconsider their ideologies or their status they are granted#in fact the one who DOES reconsider#john irving! the most christian of all! the one most insecure about his relationship to masculinity#is the FIRST one murdered and the ONLY one murdered who is not already actively dying#where am i going with all this#i do not know i'm so sorry op#here have a semi coherent ramble in your tags
