Tozer and Heather my butch4butch angels... they should have been at the dyke march instead of dying in the arctic 💔

my body is a machine that turns fanfics that I’ve read into silly drawings soooooo I read that ABSOLUTELY INSANE AND AMAZING sollitle fic https://archiveofourown.gay/works/33361636 and decided that I must draw tozer. so I did.

different anon. i like the idea of tozer trying to get a nickname thing started for the several thomases he knows but not for the solid 50% of the team that are williams. perfect clarity as to which william hes referring to at any given time.

Oh sure, it’s Bill (heather), Billy (Gibson), Will (strong) and Liam (pilkington) but for some reason he’s like “no no the Tom/Tommy/Thomas thing is confusing, they’re now tarts, Tommy arms, and TJ.” Blanky doesn’t end up with a nickname out of respect and he’s kind of disappointed tbh he wants to know what Sol would’ve come up with

the way tozer is like “why are they surprised that heather is still alive? he’s a ROYAL MARINE” as if whatever good ol’ english skills needed to be a royal marine also mean you are impervious to having your skull cracked open. rip solomon tozer you would have LOVED those manipulative made in the royal navy adverts

Frankly I subscribe to “if you can convince me then I’ll read it.”

Within The Terror I started reading Bridgens/Peglar because they’re canonically gay. But I found it a bit too vanilla, light on the angst, etc. They are already in love, they don’t question each other’s affections, etc. (don’t get me wrong - it’s adorable and I love it as an addition in fics but it’s just not enough to hold my attention on its own)

But I started seeing the JopLittle tags, fics, drawings and, while the characters only share a handful of lines, I found their potential dynamic much more interesting and the characters much more complex (due to their relationship to the captain, their class difference, the very different responsibilities and expectations of their respective positions, the idea that maybe Edward isn’t cut out to be a Lt. but is one because of his station and that Tom should have been a Lt. if it weren’t for his disability and/or “poor breeding” - etc. etc. etc.)

Essentially, there’s so many avenues of exploration available to a keen writer there, and by god, there’s some good fics.

THEN you add Tozer to the mix to make it a OT3 and I don’t think Jopson and Tozer share a single line of dialogue, and I think Little and Tozer speak all of 2 times, one of which is when Tozer says, “come with us Edward - Edward? That’s your name isn’t it?”

But what’s interesting? Tozer is low(ish) bred, but his position as a Sargent in the Marines means that he’s essentially ascended to a top rank for an enlisted man. But he maintains the roughness that cannot be afforded to either Little, who is expected to be an officer and a gentleman, nor Jopson, who must maintain his fake affect of high breeding as a Steward, so as not to offend the officers and maintain a kind of anonymity/invisibility required of a servant.

So there’s this complexity about who has what origin, how one navigates that, how one copes with the responsibilities of their position, and how each person represents something that the other lacks in terms of freedom or responsibility that is really titillating.

Then add sex and desire into the mix and it becomes a minefield - who needs relief from their duties by being ordered around? Who has pent up aggression and angst? Who holds silent power and poise? Who is capable of maintaining decorum in frantic situations? Who is unashamed of their base desires and who is repressing them?

Hey, I wanna talk about how we do fandom! I've come to realize that I, personally, tend to differ from many others in that I highly prefer to only engage with a text as it's written, so I don't tend to really like fanon/extremely ooc characterizations and I find it hard to get invested in ships that aren't canon. My way of doing fandom isn't better or worse than anyone else's, but I am curious about how much of a minority I'm in! So:

*We've all seen ships of characters not from the same media and stuff like shipping the concept of ennui with the color blue, okay, I'm asking what you, personally, find compelling!

[sunlaire]

Reading this fic (Stewards & Sodomites) right now and losing my mind. I had to stop and draw this but. Pilks is just so dumb and awkward @packloafer thank you for making him a short short dumb pervert 🙏 This characterization is everything to me right now.
