if james fitzjames from hit tv series The Terror (2018) and robert pattinson's character from hit film The Lighthouse (2019) swapped places jfj and willem dafoe's character would have had such a lovely time telling each other their long ass boring stories and probably would have fallen in love or something while robert pattinson's character would have cannibalized sir john within the first week onboard erebus.

(staring into mirror) today i will not be thinking about crozier wearing one of fitzjames's gloves after he is gone. today i will not think about how crozier does not let go of fitzjames's hand once in his final moments, only to coax what will take him away down his throat. i will not think about the pain of fitzjames's request, to ask crozier to guide him somewhere the other man cannot go. today i will not think about how they do not look away from one another. today i will not think about crozier's soft 'its alright' when fitzjames explains why he cannot haul because it is alright. because they have time. they have time.

[...] The 1st. Lieutenant of the Erebus [Graham Gore] has got a dog if therefore you have not sent off Cæsar [the Goodsirs' family dog?] yet it is just as well to keep him at home poor brute as he is rather old for the voyage altho not so advanced in years as the one we are taking. [...]

drawing of mandible NgLj-2:226 in my sketchbook in honor of the James Fitzjames remains identification. i’ve never drawn a jaw bone before but i liked how the lettering of his name turned out

I feel like Fitzjames would keep her dick in the same way she'd keep her first name but Hodgson would get every gender surgery invented to date and she'd know all the technical terms for them and all the etymologies of said terms and she'd cheerfully tell Irving and Little all the bloody medical details of each one and she'd do it while they were eating and Little would want to gently object but would not do so because he wants to be a Good Ally and Irving would ignore all his subtle attempts to change the subject and listen to her with an enthralled intensity usually reserved for church services, which could mean nothing.

love the concept of transfem fitzjames not just because it's both fun to headcanon characters as trans and also thematically appropriate in her case but because i feel like she'd be so ideologically incoherent about it. she'd be like i should be allowed to fight and die in a war not because i'm a man or a woman but because i'm james fitzjames and i can do anything. diversity ??? this trans woman is defying traditional gender roles in a way that seemingly benefits absolutely no one.

I started watching Rome HBO (2005) and Tobias Menzies is about 30 in there, so basically that’s how James Fitzjames was supposed to look like

like 🎀✨a baby✨💝

I'm actually so chuffed that they've identified Fitzjames remains but I have no one to share the news with without sounding like
