Poor Havers.

Obviously poor Cap as well because he died

But fml poor Havers.

Being wounded after the war, having seen the horrors of the front line, then seeing Cap again realising that he isn't supposed to be there and that he smuggled himself in, Havers probably panicking because they are surrounded and every sign of affection is a high risk. And then someone confronts the man who is clearly trying to get to him and Cap collapses and basically tries to confess his love and Havers has to keep him from putting them both in danger but wants him to know that He reciprocates so he says he knows and stops him from touching his face but guides him to grab the swaggerstick so he can grab his hands. which is such a smart idea because of course a dying and scared man grabs at something and of course one has to provide comfort to loosen the grip. And then they say each others first named and the second Cap is dead he has to release his hand or else it would be suspicious. And he has to do this with a straight face.

I wonder when he finally was allowed to shed a tear, to mourn, to fall apart

I'm by now completely convinced that he went to the front to protect them both because Cap really wasn't that subtle

And Havers looked out for both of them even in Cap's final moments

It's just so tragic. Cap lost his life but Havers lost so so much as well

I really, really want to know what happened to him afterwards.

Just came across this post Peter Sandys-Clarke made on Twitter and

we were so young and full of life and none of us prepared to die, and im not ashamed to say the roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry.

happy one year

getting emotional over the fact that the buried mine– the metaphor for cap's repression– is what caused clare to fall in love with the garden, and therefore his love for havers and sadness at him leaving for the front was the reason he eventually got to witness a gay wedding in the room where he died. i need to lie down.

[tamsinbeybey-she-no-porcupine]

This will haunt me for a long, long time. His face as his world falls apart and the way he has to keep it together because they are in danger

[the-sand-woman]

gay people can never say "I love you." It's always some weird shit like "I shall miss you havers."

So…This is it.

I don’t know what I feel. Havers was there.

It’s canon, I guess?…But it hurts.
