Matching your freak is beautiful and all but what you really need is a boy who's infatuated with your freak. Down bad for your freak. Deeply intrigued by your freak. Eager to see more of your freak. Supportive of your freak. Gets bricked up witnessing your freak, even.

feel free to add with other terror characters and their cats!!!
The scene in The Terror Episode 2 where the last lead party returns (sans Lieut. Gore, plus Silna & her father) and Franklin goes "where's Graham?" When they're still like, 200 metres away makes more sense when you know that the actual Graham Gore, this guy
Was an ABSOLUTE UNIT of a man. Above six-foot in height and broad-built with it too. The actor Tom Weston-Jones, who is lovely and does his best with a limited role, is 6' scratch and just doesn't have the sheer size of the man.
(from a tumblr post of how to pick which one is Gore - he's hat-pompom-guy).
I don't think they changed the script to reflect that it would be hard for Franklin to see that Gore isn't there (given the actor is regular sized) versus it being easy to tell he's not there (the real man was an absolute unit!).
I wish they'd found a big fella to play Graham, rip big sexy, I just love a unit of man in a uniform <3
I don't post my craft here much but decided I'd like to try to. This is what I'm working on at the moment:
I make bobbin lace: at the moment I'm making a bookmark for a friend (what colour it is is a secret, hence monochrome photos) in Gütermann 100% silk on 12 pairs of bobbins.
My partner just suggested he's the dolorous Edd of The Terror, and yes, Collins kind of is, but also no. Edd's dolorous, but he's realistic, he knows his world's shit, he's frustrated that other people seem to expect his world not to be shit, he's come to terms with his shit world & expects nothing else. Edd, in a weird way, is healthy in his dolor. Where Henry Collins is *suffering* , poor fella. Both of them brought to life by incredible actors though!
my favorite part about henry collins is that he would be having a bad time in every timeline. he's your coworker that's always fighting battles. he's hitting his bong on his smoke break and having a panic attack on shift. he gets in fights w squirrels he doesn't start and does lose. you would have LOVED ssris and weed induced psychosis ‼️‼️‼️
cant stop thinking “edward little moment” whenever something bad happens to me and honestly. affirming
So I need to babble about a contrast I noticed between two 'cold boys in boats' shows: The Terror and The North Water. So, in The North Water, Jack O'Connell is wonderful as ship's surgeon Patrick Sumner.
But, and this is a regretful but, a decision made by his character/the show's writers just straight up *busted* the show for me. He's supposedly (due to complex backstory reasons) addicted to laudanum/opium. Yet, in the third ep, he apparently decides to send *his whole supply* off with someone else, to somewhere else, and, it being the heckin' arctic, therefore loses it. I remember straight-up pausing the show to go rant to my partner "Is it this bitch's first day as a drug addict? He didn't even keep *any* on his person at all times? Come the heck on!"
Where in The Terror, after three years stuck in ice, this absolute madlad, Mr Blanky, still has his tobacco for his last smoke, on his person, at all times:
And gleefully takes it while waiting for the monsterbear to kill him. *That's* a sailor with an addiction I can believe in!
There's just something magic about doing a The Terror rewatch starting with episode 10 (we are gone) and going straight back to episode 1 (go for broke). You get to see everyone all happy and professional and working. Especially lovely to see Mr Collins and Lieutenant Little actually *doing* their jobs. My babies are prospering (let's ignore what's going to happen)
This is Magnus Manson, he's bigger than the others, shown next to Harry Goodsir (who's regular sized)

I love everything about their dynamic!
Do you think he ever forgave himself for asking Franklin to stay during the hunt for Tuunbaq?
