Never recovering from this actually…

My favourite part of the show was when the repressed gays lived happily together and nothing sad happened at all

:'''''''''''')

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I just re watched Redding Weddy and honestly, hats off to the man who played Havers. Like he appears 3 times at most on the episode, smiles, steals everyone's hearts and then fucks off into the distance. What a legend. Absolute Chad. A true Lad

Regarding Ben “giving the audience what they want”.

Unless it’s an entire episode dedicated to a beautifully shot porn erotic encounter in which the camera tracks down the Captains torso, following Havers’ fingers as they carefully unbutton his jacket before gently pushing it off his broad shoulders, etc, etc I very much doubt it!

i am so sorry bbc ghosts fans

After watching the Captain cope with Mary’s departure, I just know the regiment couldn’t get a break after Havers left.

He definitely checked everyone rifle twice an hour.

They never had that many chores before.

HQ woke up and discovered a random house in the countryside send them a century worth of paper work.

My man probably tried to fix a car at one point, despite not knowing how, he just wanted to stay occupied at any costs.

1. Do you guys think I should make more?

2. You guys having been saying they are really accurate and that’s because I have watched this show at least 8 times through and just have random stuff memorized.

3. I’m thinking about making a drawing of the “drowning in pool” picture with the bbc ghosts characters that @stressedbeetle requested. Please tell if you want to see that

I just watched episode 5 and I'm just like... "who the hell was William?!!!" xD Why did they use that name??

I mean I know the Captain says William was the name of the operation... but still, there was something very emotional around that letter and the way it was filmed. Of course, I get that it was a metaphor. But a part of my brain cannot stop thinking about this William, like was the full name Anthony William Havers?? Did - did the Captain have a dog called William at one point (he fibs about having his dog buried there)? Is it his full name, James William Something? Am I missing something very obvious?

Am I torturing myself for an irrelevant detail? I know the answer to that one! Bloody William!

hmmm but what if havers was missing in action so cap just assumed he was dead and tried to move on. three years later the war is over, havers turns up on the doorstep of button house, broken and bloody, asking for cap. the guy at the door looks at him a little pityingly and says "sorry, lad, the only captain who ever lived here died two years ago." what if.

[lttleghostlemon]

Holy shit so like. Everyone keeps going “omg what if havers come back in s5” and. My little idea doesnt have much to do with s5 cause i doubt it would ever happen but. Havers had left to join the front line on Africa right? What if his ghost powers were he wasnt stuck where he died, and he was able to leave, wander wherever. And what if he found his way back to Button house because he wanted to remember the old place and he bumps into Captain during his morning run..

IF IT WASN'T FOR THE NIGHTS

the Captain x Havers | G | 2.2k

“I was saying, sir, that it’s good to see you awake, at last,” he chuckled. “Longer than you have been, I mean. You’ve had a nasty time of it.” The Captain did remember waking up a few times, here and there. It was all hazy, though, as his thoughts still were. But he had the very secure sense of being looked after, and looked after well. The Captain comes down with a fever, but his trusty lieutenant is there to catch him when he does.

I don’t know who I’m addressing this to but *clears throat for tannoy announcement*

Can the person who abandoned the very interesting fic in which Havers is initially massively disdainful of the Captain please locate it in the lost protagonists tent and finish nurturing it further. I would like to see Havers finish falling in love, despite himself, over many chapters.

I can’t remember the title or the author but it’s on A03, so that narrows it down to 90% of all the fics that exist.

It’s also the most original, non-woobified version of him anywhere.

If you could get cracking that’d be marvelous.

Thank you.

can’t believe after havers left button house he was relocated to barbieland

[mxdanni]

AU: where Havers doesn’t die but has a near-death experience and stays awhile in North Africa after the war.

The Captain knows nothing of that. He confides in Pat about the whole “William affair”. Patrick is touched by the trust, for years slowly falling for the Captain. He also suggests the Captain gets it off his chest, basically, to move on (and perhaps fall in love again) the Captain has to actually tell Havers about his feelings. Which they can’t do, but Pat suggests the Captain at least imagines him there.

And the, surely, have something going on between them, something growing yet, which both are afraid explore because feels too precious and fragile.

Anyway. In the war, Havers gets badly injured but is nursed to health by a local. Who doesn’t speak any English but some French (North Africa and all), so they kick off real cute. The forces report Havers dead since he went missing, and it takes him years to recover. Still forever in a wheelchair. They eventually move to the UK together and get married. Yet. Havers learns about the Captains death and can’t quite get himself to come over to the place where they met the last. But he also feels that need for a closure. To end the chapter properly. To say goodbye properly.

Havers and his husband book a night when both of them are somewhere 80+. One soppily-in-love granddad pushing the other in his wheelchair. And, near-death experience, remember? Havers sees all the ghosts.

Haver’s husband leaves him in the room to get something which is when Patrick runs into him. And gets it. Just not the husband part.

And Patrick lies. Pulls on a smile and encourages the Captain to still confess, it’s been years, sure, but to Pat it sounds like Cap is still in love with the man. So. He should be happy.

What Pat doesn’t expect, however, is the Captain starting with “I used to be in love with you”. The used to stops him. Because Pat was about to leave and not eavesdrop on the whole thing. To which the Captain (unaware that Pat is there) goes on to say, “I know it’s been years since I didn’t feel that way, yet the person I came to care about thinks I should get it off my chest. Come to think about it… I do feel better talking about it.”

Havers tells the Captain about his husband, Cap tells him about Pat, outside the door Patrick and the said husband are eavesdropping and nearly losing it… Soppy confessions ensure
