#not to mention that the alcoholism as an addiction narrative is absolutely intrinsically tied to a narrative and history of imperial control #and where crozier is concerned that shit is VITAL
every time someone forgets that a big part of crozier's arc revolves around his roots and instead blame everything on his alcoholism an angel looses its wings

Also im gonna be real i feel like a lot of people dont quite grasp the importance of crozier's irishness in the narrative and how that affects literally everything he does and everyone he interacts with INCLUDING sophia
#THIS IS NOT A SOPHIA HATE POST I LOVE SOPHIA AND I THINK SHE CARED DEEPLY FOR CROZIER IN RETURN#But what i am saying is that a lot of crozier's desperation comes from the need to be seen as someone who's not subhuman#or lesser. and the reason he IS treated as such by everyone including sir john and why sophia had to reject him so many times#is bc in the eyes of the empire he is simply not a man#francis crozier#the terror#chatterin'#sorry for clogging up the tag i just saw some wild takes recently

#no yeah she spends a good portion of the show basically hiding under the covers and hoping the problem goes away #it's part of her anger and frustration at crozier in the tea party/interrogation scene #'you know what you have to do and you don't do it' is directed at herself as much as at him #she's v flawed and a failed captain in her own right
A Big Thing abt silna as a character is that she's terrified of her responsibility and of tuunbaq and actively takes advantage of being on erebus bc it's "safer" or whatever there and i feel like that doesnt get discussed enough
#THANK YOU EXACTLY THE POINT I WAS MAKING#like silna is a victim absolutely but it's literally pointed out by blanky that shes made no efforts to escape either#oh silna crozier parallels you will always be famous#chatterin'#analysis

#we tend to girlbossify her bc ig shes the only woman of colour in the series but the fact of the matter is#that she's equally as complex and capable of failure as the white men#which is kind of the point#i dont think shes not also got a spine of steel especially wrt crozier but i do think#that part of acknowledging her character and her agency is that shes scared shitless#silna the terror#the terror

Honestly while i get why people would have happily had 3 seasons of the terror s1 i do actually think the way the story wrapped up was perfect
#idk it's very. neat. poignant. says what it needs to and doesnt overstay its welcome#altho i am absolutely fascinated by the cut footage if only bc of what they possibly could have cut#chatterin'#terror camp 2024#which i did not attend :( too busy being in the southern hemisphere and also ill

another thing i really appreciate about the relationship between goodsir and silna and its evolution is that the writers did not pull punches and make goodsir not culpable in imperialism. he鈥檚 the one who makes the decision to keep her father鈥檚 belongings with his body instead of give them to silna which is arguably a contributing factor in her not gaining control of the tuunbaq. their first conversation is him explaining the purpose of the expedition to her and conceptualizing it as a means for trade and expansion. even his initial interest in her is to create a dictionary of inuktitut: seeing her as an object of study rather than a human being. but as time goes on and they spend more time together he breaks (somewhat) out of that imperialist mentality, yet crucially it is not silna鈥檚 job to teach him that colonialism is bad. we don鈥檛 get any scenes of her giving him a ted talk on why his whole world view and purpose is shitty and he should feel bad, because that鈥檚 not her job and not her goal. and yet there is a clear change from researcher-researched to mutual respect (him helping her at carnivale, her helping him after morfin鈥檚 death), even as they both grapple with their respective responsibilities and moral codes and ties which ultimately separate them. i think a lesser writing team would have made educating goodsir on the follies of imperialism silna鈥檚 responsibility, or else made him a perfect model of anti-imperialist sentiment from the beginning, and i really am impressed and appreciate how they did not do this and were much more nuanced

oh ok i see so basically this is one of the best shows to come out of the last ten years. got it.
Ok i will watch the terror
#I. am feeling so many emotions right now#andi think the strongest is like#this is a show made of compassion. compassion for those men that died. compassion for the inuit people affected by colonisation.#it's a story about love and inevitability and odds that will never be conquered it's about the poison of imperialism and how#the kindest heart still is eaten away by that poison. it's about the difference between wanting to understand something#and wanting to conquer it#it's about tenderness and how it exists in the most hostile places. it's about what people can do at their worst and how they dont need#to be at their worst to do their worst#it's about sacrifice#both the willing kind and the kind that imperialism makes for its own benefit#but most of all i think it's a tribute. it's about saying we remember you. and we are telling your story. warts and all.#because we want to remember you as you were. not as an idealized fantasy but as the people you were.
