Just had a thought! Gendering death in The Terror, especially regarding Goodsir - his whole character arc lands him in a tent dosing himself with medicines that he turns into poison by combination/amount/method. He is a naturalist. He administers (is supposed to administer) health to the crew. In Victorian society this is, domestically, a feminine pursuit. It requires observation, an outwardly passive activity that seemed appropriate for young women - it displayed a mundane interest in the natural world, which had all the connotations of health that it does today.

Of course Goodsir did not enter the story as a hobbyist; his work (no matter how culturally feminine) being public and professional made it a masculine, and therefore acceptable, career. But by the time Goodsir resorts to poison, it is easy to argue that the Franklin Expedition is no longer part of the public or cultural consciousness anymore - they are only themselves, separated by distance and time from British society. The dredges they hold onto are the fears of an Empire that survives on the conquest and subjugation of anything and everything that does not benefit it. By the end of the show, Goodsir's career in naturalism is no longer a career. It is residual knowledge, ghosts from his academic past. It has, in the eyes of Victorian society, lost its innate respectability; for when he is doing something for himself, how does the Empire profit? This whole expedition was supposed to be for glory and God and the queen, and it has failed. In all things it failed.

So, thus, when Goodsir turns to poison, his actions carry layers of gendered cultural implications.

A) poison is well established, in the western literary canon, as a feminine tool. In Greek mythology, tens of women use poison to kill husbands/enemies of husbands/abusers. This alone does not necessarily imply a Gender Time for Goodsir, but it does lay the foundation, especially when considered in tandem with the loss of his career/its "demotion" to dead knowledge - frivolous, impractical, and marked by a distinctive lack of action. The whole show, the whole expedition, is moved by change. By action. By force. This is the perceived masculine effect of naval voyages; especially on discovery expeditions, it implies a domination, an invasion of an unknown (i.e. feminine (mystic, virginal, etc)) place. Goodsir, unlike his peers, and then his captors, does not take action in any of those senses. He either saves or he observes. Those are his functions.

B) Goodsir takes on the role of the land met by expedition - his death is a death that fates invasion, penetration (stabbing, in this case, and rending - qualities of Christ's wounds? Something to consider...). As established earlier, his position as the receptor of exploration, this time an exploration of (potential) survival, places him firmly in the feminine sphere of Victorian thought; faced with a future with the mutineers, a future that he was sure would lead to no rescue, no respite, he resigned himself to his fate without becoming passive to it - or, rather, his passivity allowed him a final act of rebellion against the situation in which he found himself. Again we return to the idea of a lack of action. He became a mirror of his own career - an opposite - he was the cadaver, and hickey was the anatomist. He was the body disturbed, the body altered, the body examined, eaten, and stripped. He became nothing but his physical existence. He was reduced, mind and soul, to flesh.

C) Poison-as-madness; Goodsir's death was not his end - indeed it is his death that causes the greatest disruption in the mutineers' camp. Although it is not completely clear what he intended to do by poisoning the mutineers (though he surely knew; again, observation - he had only knowledge, and could not act on that knowledge publicly. It became an act of subterfuge to use that knowledge, for which he was once employed) it clearly had an affect on their behavior - like those women in Greek tragedies, his death lived on to affect the minds and health of the men he left behind. He had to let his non-action, his ultimate motionlessness, speak with greater strength than his life. He had to make his absence a worse fate than his existence. When a patriarchal society, especially a Naval society, values action; definition, decisiveness, clarity in belief and posture and result (only failure or success), it becomes the masculine default. Goodsir's final act of vengeful contrition, an act against hubris, against betrayal, is an act that removes him from the masculine. It is not he that causes madness, that leaves Hickey lodged in Tuunbaq's throat. It is what flows through him, what uses him as a conduit to conduct its own decisive, merciless nature.

Basically Goodsir has gender is gender dies in the depths of gender and the Victorians did violence by gender and to gender

i have a story i think yall would enjoy : ]

my mom's coworker's son needed some repairs on his 3ds. he's 11, and he was just recently diagnosed as being on the spectrum. this particular 3ds is very important to him. apparantly every place in town turned him down for repairs so I gave it a shot.

he's just like me at 11 lol... obsessed w pokemon, mario etc and he had a bunch of games downloaded so I peeked at em, just curious what kind of pkmn he had. on all of them he was either: not even at the first gym or like halfway through, none of them were completed. he had what I Thought to be mario & luigi paper jam and I joked w my mom how I should get him a REAL game like superstar saga and upon closer inspection it was superstar saga.

mfw:

so I peek at his file on ss and its the ONLY game hes beaten! start to finish! he even completed minion quest!!

it just made me so happy like. I was around his age when I first played bis, and I was so happy I was pacing around the house...! he mustve really enjoyed it, given its the only game he beat on his ds!!!

anyway I just finished up repairs on it last night and returned it to him. I hope he enjoys it : ]

Being able to actually cuddle and unwind in good company was something that Saima couldn’t get enough of. It had taken a little time but given the familiarity they built with Garthy, they felt so much ease while being held against them. The experience of enjoying some good snacks, being fed - this was an indulgence in ways that they didn’t realize would be an option for them. Perhaps it was this kind of pleasure that emboldened Saima a bit, making them eager to let show some affection in the way that their hand wandered against the inside of Garthy’s thigh.

Their touch was quite light at first, purposefully so just so that they could get the general feel before they wandered a little more. It was during such a moment that Saima took another berry into their mouth, humming with delight - even more so with the feeling of Garthy running a thumb against their bottom lip.

When Saima heard Garthy ‘warn’ them about potentially doing something about such touches, they offered a low little laugh in response. “Perhaps dear, that’s the point of such touches.“ Saima continued their exploration, all the more eager to feel on Garthy and their beautiful form. If that meant there was a reaction coming, that would be all the better as far as Saima was concerned.

“But I am truly glad to have your permission, wouldn’t want to do anything you didn’t approve of.“
