Edward Little - Hackney Horse

Night Haunters favourite blanket is probably one he stumbled across in an alley as a kid and used to keep warm before he figured out clothes. It’s comically small since it was made for a human baby but he refuses to get rid of it, and aside from being chewed on it remarkably well looked after

awww this is adorable! The blanket is probally more of a handkerchief for adult Konrad than a full sized blanket, but he still loves it. No one is allowed to comment on it.

Fitzy: "Would you have done it?"

*the most weighted silence you've ever witnessed paired with Blankys little smirk*

Blanky: "Leads opened up in the August. We got picked up by the Isabella. We'd been taken for dead for two years."

Fitzy: "Mr.Blanky, most of the men survived."

Blanky: "If that's the point you want me to get to, sir. Then yes. We survived."

I LOVE THIS MOMENT, THIS WHOLE CONVERSATION, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH!!!

The picture it paints, so so well, you can practically SEE blanky's shadow hovering behind Sir John Ross, axe in hand, and several men behind him besides.

if you would ever like to elaborate further on the mountain dog/hunting dog joplittle dynamic you mentioned in the tags of that “Blanky about to lose his leg” gifset…. inquiring minds are simply piqued 👀

hi sorry that this took me. FOREVER. i didn't have time to answer the ask at first then i did it halfway and didn't have time again and i promise you this ask has been hounding me (hah hah) since the day it appeared in my inbox but i never seemed to be able to make the time to reply to it asfjdfjfd anyway! here it is now :')

ok im basing the idea of hunting dog = jopson and mountain/working dog = little on their respective personalities, the way they seem to think and how they react to specific circumstances. and slightly on their physiques as presented in the series but that's of minor importance. ofc both of them are loyal and listen well to superiors - to one man in particular, which is fairly common among dog breeds as well (i.e. whoever trained them), so that's not necessarily distinctive, but it does ofc make them dog-coded in general. but there are many many ways in which to be dog-coded and they're very different abt it so!

why i think jopson is more hunting dog coded is bc he is extremely competent, but quietly so, not noticeable until it becomes necessary. he's very skilled at providing specific information about the crew and the general goings-on around terror to crozier, and he becomes more focused in highly tense situations - in fact these are moments where he specifically stands out for how well-suited he seems to the task. and he is not aggressive, but there is definitely a sharpness to him that he can and does direct to those who threaten him or crozier first and foremost.

and all that really does remind me of hunting dogs - a good hunting dog is extremely well-trained, knows exactly what he is supposed to do, listens to commands, and stays at his master's side. im thinking especially of pointing dogs, i.e. dogs that point a hunter in the direction of prey that they have sensed:

these are of course very precarious situations wherein a hunter relies on his dog to steer him, and if hunter or dog make a wrong sound or movement, they may alert prey to their presence. there's a a correspondence here between dogs trained for these moments of focus to jopson, who is crozier's silent aid but also excels in such tense situations, and who is decisive, swift and capable. and i think it's really funny that being 'birdy' is a wanted trait in these dog types, bc 'i've shot smaller hawks than you' the comparison literally writes itself. also, pointers/setters tend to be lean dogs, which i think coincides well with jopson's natural elegance and grace

edward on the other hand is supposed to be sturdy, good-natured and broadly dependable. he appears increasingly anxious in the series, but that is because he is shouldering a lot of responsibility throughout it all. he'll take the insults and he'll take the extra tasks and he'll do it with barely a complaint. in fact it makes me think of the fact that dogs treated badly can come to exhibit traits that are not desirable in the breed at all. imo edward in ep 1 displays what i would call the desirable traits of, say, the bernese mountain dog, but events and crozier change that very rapidly.

you can fuck up any dog if you treat it badly for long enough, and edward is an abused dog to me.

id also say that edward is generally amiable, though he will make a point when he feels it is absolutely necessary, and he does have an innate want to protect what or whom he finds important, though he is seldom if ever very aggressive about it. he has an intense feeling of responsibility for the crew and the expedition as a whole, set against his feelings of loyalty towards crozier, who he wants to please almost at any cost as well. and then of course he also has a large family.

'search and rescue work'. yeah. and then of course mountain dogs are generally of a sturdy build. obviously matthew mcnulty is no absolute unit but by god the series tried their hardest to make edward appear like a well-built countryside boy. and by god does he try to carry every burden ever on those shoulders, like a dog pulling a cart bc that's what it was trained to do and it was enjoyable once. and he seems practically immune to scurvy and fares well in the cold, which, again, very mountain dog of him.

additionally, newfoundlands (neptune!) aren't mountain dogs, but they're big, sturdy, excellent swimmers, and therefore often used for rescue, so that's also a breed i associate with ned.

going lowkey insane over 'at least love me enough to admit it'

because because because

'next time we meet i want them to make a different choice' > 'more than god love them'

> 'are you certain james?'

>> 'i'm not saying goodbye to two friends in one day'

love as the giving of choices ! love as the acceptance of choice !!

and on the other side hickey stabbing gibson because he admits gibson is done for - the way goodsir just tell the truth that no there's no way out (because there's no love for those men inside of him)

((also also gibson sickness being basically juxtaposing with fitzjames falling and hickey comforting him with crozier joking gently with fitzjames and gods the deaths))

blanky's fucking sad smile when crozier says "i'm not saying goodbye to two friends in a day" what is it he is thinking.

there's no way out. they're all going to die and both of them know it even if. desperately. crozier tries to keep hope for everyone

they're all going to die so what matters are their choices ('if we leave something behind it will be things, not men")

and blanky has to know what he's asking how much it hurts and if he didn't "i'm not saying goodbye to two friends in one day" pretty much say it all but that changes nothing to the truth that he is already dying

"at least love me enough to admit it" for fuck's sake. he has asked nothing of francis from the beginning of the show the most he did was stand between him and the worst possible decisions when he was at rock bottom but here he is "at least love me enough to admit it".

love me enough to accept the truth. love me enough to accept my choice.

gods it makes me need to scream

All of your posts about girl dad bakugo I’m crying 😭😭😭😭😭😭 he’s so soft and quiet with her. I always imagine him going to get her from her crib in the morning and he always says, “good morning angel” so lowly because he’s really just saying it for him and her, now one else… and she really is HIS Angel even if she’s a total terror 😭

omg YEEEAAHHH 🥺🥺 in the really early mornings before he goes to work, he's stopping into her room to check on her 🥺 making sure she's not too warm, that her mobile is still on, that she's not flipped on her tummy 🥺 he's very adamant about keeping her in her room bc he doesn't want her to get used to sleeping with yall, but that doesn't mean he isn't always checking on her akfbdjskaka

and sometimes she is awake that early, just being his quiet, good baby and when she sees him, she coos at him all loud and he has to shush her, doesn't have the time to waste but he's picking her up anyway 🥺🥺 asking, "what're you doin' awake so early, missy ??" WAAAHH HOW CUTE 🥺

and he maybe changes her or bottle feeds her, burps her, ignores the call he's getting from kirishima. when he lays her back down with her chupie, she's just blinking up at him softly and slowly 🥺 falling back to sleep already 🥺 and he just watches as she fiddles with the hand he rests on her little belly 🥺 and he wonders how he got such a little angel for a baby !!!!! akfbdhskalal

"A time machine" he blurted out before she was aware. The comparison to her own brother and the 12 fingers around the measure tape caused her to- she hadn't even noticed that she noticed these details until she said that.

———-

“Uuuh- I'm actually a witch" he lied

Hi!! So I was reading the first chapter of your fic and I had a little bit of trouble with these two?

For the first thing I was kinda confused about, was it Mabel blurting out it was a Time Machine or was it Ford??

Sorry I don’t know if Mabel has she/he pronouns or if it was a spelling error or something

I was hoping if you could help clarify this?

GAAAH I WASNT EVEN AWARE OF THIS ERROR!!

Although a Mabel that is gender neutral sounds awesome too I actually didn't type correctly;-; I'm sorry

I had written these chapters at work with my big fat fingers 😔 ill try reread ir before posting from now on!

sundogs for the terror ask pretty please <3

Sundogs - Talk about a moment in the show that interests you most

With pleasure!

This is more another specific line reading that I love, rather than a moment that interests me, but I hope you'll indulge me as I talk about it anyway. ;)

I really really love Blanky's choice of words in his final scene with Crozier and I think it speaks perfectly to his character in general.

He's not just going to lead Tuunbaq back out onto the ice. He's not going to coax or lure or trick it somehow. Thomas 'Motherfucker Unlimited' Blanky is going to DRIVE the poor bastarding thing out onto the ice and away from those he cares about.

That word - DRIVE - is so powerful and special to me! It's active and purposeful! I feel like it lets you know right then and there that although Blanky may be going willingly to his death, he sure as shit is not going to go without a fight!

DRIVE, for lack of a better word, has drive!

(I also so wonder how deliberate it is for him to push to return to the ice specifically. So much of his career and life was defined by it. He was passionate about it, perhaps even loved it so it would make painful but perfect sense to me for him to want to experience the ice one last time.)

So my roommate is also into One Piece. I’m not sure if he’s watched any of the anime, I know for sure he’s watched the live action, but earlier tonight he came upstairs and watched a few episodes with me while waiting for a food delivery, and then he got hooked, and then he sat and watched MORE episodes with me without really knowing what was going on. But it was still wildly entertaining to him, esp since I’m right in the middle of one of the (arguably) best arcs rn, and now he wants to finish the arc with me LOL. NOBODY is immune to One Piece propaganda. Or Bon-chan 🥰
