U seem to b the hungry Lt. fan. So heres ur challenge.

From each ship you must pick:

Suck

Fuck

Be fucked by

Both ships and xplain ur maths.

Bonus for jfj and frmc

Alright. This wont be that hard actually. Im gonna go with the real life versions since I technically know more about them. This is honestly kind of an honor to be The hungry lieutenant fan, so thank you for that.

So starting with Erebus (Gore, Des Voeux, and Fairholme)

Fuck Le Vesconte. He has the brattiest fucking face. And i Need to see him bent over. Just absolutely destroy him. Yeah this is all judging by the daguerrotypes

Suck Gore because it feels like hed be. Large. But still like. Idk. I want him Kinda submissive but not fully.

Be fucked by Fairholme because I really cannot do much from him so go ahead sure.

As for the Terror:

Fuck Irving. Needs to be sodomized. Pretty simple.

Suck Little. I don't know as much about him but hes gotta be sopping wet, so yeah.

Be fucked by Hodgson. You know, i don't really know if i can give the math on this one, but i feel convicted in it. I'll just say easy way into the British royal family (sort of)

the crews of TERROR vs EREBUS: officer edition noticed a lot more people watching the terror recently so i made a gif guide to help differentiate all the cold boys! this and this face chart are also super helpful and funny

Borealis

In 1845, two Royal Navy ships and two Aerial Corps dragon crews left England in an attempt to finally discover a navigable passage through the Arctic. In 1847, Captain James Fitzjames struggles to shield his dragon from the fallout of a failing Expedition. In 1849, at a meeting of the Admirals of the Air, Captain James Fitzjames of Her Majesty's Dragon Aurora recounts the events of the disastrous Franklin Expedition to determine if he will be court-martialed for the loss of HMD Ulysses with all hands aboard. The truth lies lost on the ice, somewhere in the middle.

Go read it here and then return for the last image, as it is a spoiler and a tad distressing if you don’t like looking at corpses

*SLAMS DEBIT CARD WITH A NEGATIVE BALANCE ON IT* 💥💳💥💳💥💳💥💳💥 MOR COLD LIEUTENANTS PEASE

OKOK SORRY 🙏🙏🙏

Green highlights for newly tracked descendents and tests!

Franklin, Crozier, Vesconte, Hodgson, Fairhome, and Hornby all have no match made yet with existing remains. Keep in mind that not all discovered bodies have had their DNA tested yet, and there are plenty of bodies reburied by various expeditions waiting to be rediscovered.

This batch includes a lot of characters featured predominantly on The Terror, so I hope the fans enjoy! Or not enjoy, since there's no match made yet. Oh, well. Thanks to the RtFE facebook group!

Edit: Two of Peddie's direct descendents tracked down! No contact made yet.

On HMS Erebus a good performance will get you applause from the officers

[maliceandarrogance]

this is dumb as hell but it came to me in a dream so i had to post it. would love rbs for sample size + explanations but don’t feel obligated or anything.

[notkingyet2]

hey quick question do we ever see Edward Little do anything well or even competently in the entire series?

like Irving communicates with the Netsilik and Hodgson is key in hitting the Tuunbaq with a cannon and Dundy shares Fitzjames's ability to rally the troops and Gore is a bright shining boy however brief but like

i don't think we ever seen Little succeed at anything even incidentally

[corydoric]

“I should go to the arctic!” <- guys watching the terror who could NOT handle the arctic

[strogoff-era]

I wanted to draw some cute Erebus lieutenants ship but instead I drew this

[ltwilliammowett]

Epaulettes from the wreck of HMS Erebus, maybe owned and worn by Lieutenant James Walter Fairholme, before 1845 - Above the condition as they were found and below after cleaning and conservation.

[leadandblood]

@strogoff-era Most of the single and double draws are from a long term project of mine, which I haven't shared a lot of. I don't mind sharing a bit now though ^^

Fairholme and Dundy

And Gore :DD

[noughticalcrossings]

Lieutenant James Fairholme

Eighteen miles, that’s all they made

[tsarjozinzbazin]

Hiiii ! Just wanted to say I *love* your art, it is so so good !! All your drawings make me lie down irl because of how good they are !!

(also please use this ask as an excuse to post more Erebus boys art if you have any/want to make more. I love them and would love to see more of them in your artstyle <3)

@strogoff-era

Haiii pookie ty!!! 🫶 im glad you are enjoying the cold boys!

I shall abuse this ask to post the ladies!

[cockroachesunite]

Alright, i may be crazy, but look

they’re both wearing the same coat (Fitzjames lent Fairholme his for the picture)

There’s actually another picture of each of them

now look at the SLEEVES

using this table (which I tested out with my brother for scale: he’s about half a foot taller than me, but his forearm’s only about 2cm longer than mine)

This is by no means exact, (and please correct me if I’m wrong) but I think it’s very probable that Fairholme was something like half a foot taller than Fitzjames
