i had the thought the other day 'man this would suck if the real hickey was a ghost watching this and going, hey, i was myself and also didn't do any of that!!!' then i googled to make sure he really didn't Do Any Of That and found this excellent wikia excerpt

Probably Not A Murderer

The fate of the franklin expedition is so poetic imagine dying of imperialism and then literally being cannibalised without achieving anything beyond becoming another member of the hallowed ranks of a grisly naval stories in the 1840s and then hundreds of years later your restless shade still haunts humanity without a scrap of peace because amc made a tv show which made everyone write yaoi about you

Nosying back through the Q&As and not only did I remember correctly about the Des Voeux/Hickey Significant-Moment-of-Perception (TM), Dave also reveals at one point that out of absolutely everyone, he thinks Des Voeux would be the last man standing in a Battle Royale-style fight to the death.

Which is just outstanding, it really is!

Apparently it's his facility with weapons combined with the fact that he won't hesitate and honestly, I agree and am very intrigued by that...

Wow! If I had a nickel for every time I watched a piece of historical horror media with an animal/human hybrid where Alistair Petrie played a character who self-immolates, I'd have two nickels - which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Right?

Googling ‘polar bear images’ and ‘polar bear angry’ and ‘polar bear attack’ because there’s NO way polar bears actually look like that, right??? Right?????????? That’s a fucking. That’s a fucking yeti or something

[whore-man]

if there was ever a tv adaptation of the magnus archives i think sasha should be played by the same person as notsasha the whole time.

there are perhaps a few polaroids shown briefly in the background with someone you don't recognize during s1, but they disappear in s2.

in the end, the viewer doesn't remember the 'real' sasha either, because she was never acting in the show. all you have is memories of notsasha.

the first time we actually see the actor in the pictures from s1 is in the flashbacks at the beginning of s5; sasha and tim talking, jon's birthday, sweet memories that just- don't seem quite right, even though you know this is the true version.

Crozier and Blanky having something of a spat, leading to crozier ordering blanky to go out in deadly weather to get an ice report--

--and then Francis' panic once he realizes: a. what he's done, and b. that thomas is in danger--

--and finally, his absolute self-disgust when they all share a drink, leading to him going cold turkey, knowing full well the consequences of doing so......

it really haunts me.

like imagine sending someone out into That Bullshit only for them to barely make it back, and it's in two pieces! All because your dumb ass lashed out at them when they called you out on your self destruction!

I've rambled before about my theory that Thomas may have had conversations with Francis before, and recently, about the darkness (the depression) leading his actions. I'll rb that post if I can find it, but...

As someone who has been catatonic with depression & who has climbed out of it, and gone through severe medication withdrawals-- and as someone who has tried my best to be the friend on the supporting end too, the whole damn thing really gets to me, in a good way.

What I'm saying is, Thomas being the catalyst for Francis giving up the bottle rattles me to a point of deep self-reflection. Wake-up calls come in a lot of forms, and that? That was a bullhorn to the ear.

My children. My screams. I could not save you, little ones. Such pain. And yet, still, still I am not brave enough to die, to let go of this wretched life. I will endure, but no more babies. I cannot, will not, suffer such heartbreak again. From now on, it's me against the world.

The Litany of Saint Kristen Applebees

St. Kristen Applebees, Prophet of Cassandra, The Seeker of Truth, The Ever-Changing, Patron of the Lonely, Solace of the Forgotten The Resurrected The god-saviour The god-killer

(being catholic means very rigid liturgical structures embedded into your brain, great for poetic reasons)

I am not normal about them at all

[saints-who-never-existed]

Oh God, you guys, I forgot Bridgens had his own journals...!!!

In the book, Bridgens had his own journals, kept throughout the Expedition and possibly beforehand. There's one purposefully left behind in his tent when he goes for his final walk, and five even longer ones purposefully left far behind on Terror!!!

Just consider that for a single goddamn second!

John Bridgens, a man who loves literature and stories, and has defined his entire life by them, specifically destroys his own story, deliberately leaves it all behind to rot, in order to carry Peglar's forward with him instead...!!!

[pintsofguinnesmakeyoustrong]

number one funniest bit in amc the terror is when hickey is aggressively singing the british national anthem into the arctic abyss to try and summon the local magic polar bear while everyone around him is throwing up and dying from goodsir's poisoned ass meat

[spiral-man]

someone was talking about Alice and Celia being anagrams and it’s times like this I really just hate Jonny Sims. Because you see, your first instinct is to theorize what that could mean because it’s got to mean something right? Wrong. This is the same writer who plagiarized his own birth certificate for a main character and then named three important re-occurring characters Michael….IN A AUDIO PODCAST.

Jonny sims is a genius writer, but he also wrote “there is no such thing as a name” about himself and his tendency to just pick names based on whatever first comes to mind. HE VOICED A CHARACTER NAMED DONNY SUMS. DONNY FUCKING SUMS ARE YOU KIDDING ME-

[tomwambsmilk]

I think it’s very sexy of the Terror to keep teasing us with the prospect of madness and cannibalism but wait until episode 7 to really start delivering. It’s like a prestige horror fiction striptease

Cough*

Jason’s design……

Next time I’m going to go ham with platforms on him like 👀

Not really a design I app for him. I feel like he’s not gonna go all out he’s just vibing idk. He set the makeup being the most prominent thing. His theme is dead boi

He does actually have the scars but I figure paint them all glowey and no one questions it?

He has fun being the zombie on stage and watching his family squirm when they see him in all the makeup lol

Blue lips cold skin wrecked fingernails

Bruce would have an attack 🤣

I don’t really know what to do with Jason’s designs and I’m open to any ideas fr
