#ghosts the captain

I think one of my favourite things about The Captain's characterisation is that he's not there as The Token Gay, but also being gay is so inherently a part of who he is that it's impossible to censor it. You can't just cut a few lines and have a heterosexual Captain. It's baked into the fibre of his being, it informs how he interacts with other characters, his little looks in the background, his line delivery, the way other characters act around him.

This is what queer representation should be. You can't take the gay out of us and have us still be the same person, so you shouldn't be able to do that to gay characters by cutting a few lines/scenes. The Captain is a masterpiece in honest, heartfelt, respectful representation of queer identity. The Idiots writing and Ben's performance makes The Captain one of the best pieces of queer representation I've ever seen on screen.

captain, julian and thomas are so eldest child, middle child, youngest child (respectively) and you cannot convince me otherwise

Just for everyones information. I just bingewatched all of BBC Ghosts in like 5 days (would have been 2 if I didn't had to you know, work) and I'm absolutely obsessed with it. Can't believe I never watched this before. Guess who my favorite character is (a hint. It's the captain. S5 ep 5 killed me, I can't anymore.)

Never not thinking about how happy and excited the captain was throughout 2x06

I mean… LOOK AT HIM 🫠

Thinking about how The Captain probably has the others call him that because "James" was the last thing Havers said to him, and he wants that to stay between them.

i don’t think the captain will really come out in s5 (but it’d be cool if he does!) but also it’d be really funny to have him go “i find myself attracted to... men” and everyone else simply tell him they knew

Ghost doesn't cutesy talk cats, he talks to them like other adult men and it's hilarious.

They're at a safehouse, and Ghost is listening to the radio, Price hears him talking to someone, and he's confused because both of his sergeants are conked out asleep.

So, he walks around the corner and finds Ghost sitting on a step with the radio playing and a stray kitten biting his laces while he talks to her. "I don't believe shoelaces constitute part of a balanced diet."

John just sits down on the step next to him and ignores how his knees click. "What's her name?"

"She's yet to disclose name or rank, but given that she's clearly smarter than those two through there, I'd say she's a lieutenant." He responds so dryly that John can't help but snort.

"Ah, I see. Making her way through the ranks at her young age, impressive." He leans forward to pet the kitten, flattening down the tuft of fur sticking up on her head.

"She's a hard worker, look at those paws. Grubby, she's been busy."

The kitten offers them a mewl in response, and he nods accordingly.

"She's stern, reminds me of Laswell."

That makes Ghost laugh.
