the day i finally get up the nerve to start publishing my To This Point I Stand verse it's over for you all. It's about Laertes/Osric in a world where Hamlet never returned to Denmark and is presumed lost at sea (ros and guil are still alive). Laertes viciously shoves people away and goes on long aimless walks in the middle of the night just to keep himself from sleeping, and gets drunk and starts fights, and when he's too keyed up and anxious to go back to his empty house and its ghosts, he crashes at Osric's apartment and eventually gets his own key. Both of them have dated Hamlet in the past and Osric was best friends with Ophelia, so they're both broken up pretty bad, and they eventually help each other feel and act like complete humans, and slowly realize they're in love.

zoz my favourite chip kinnie tell me
how do you think chip would react to gill dying
ratio
#i mean. first would be ardent denial (like above) mixed w joking about it#bc he doesn’t know how to deal with grief (or most negative emotions) so he simply Avoids it#(see whatever the fuck was up with felix lionsgold)#he’d play the blame game a lot and shift it around. likely honestly blame the rest of the crew and blow up at them#or at gill himself. or maybe the scenario as a whole#but most of all he’d put the blame on himself and it would destroy him#he’d only be half conscious he’s doing it but him yelling at everyone else isn’t just blame shifting#he’s pushing them away so that they might be safe from *him*#his life’s been marked by tragedy at every turn. his worst nightmare was a graveyard w all the people he’s known or loved dead#but maybe if they’re gone they might be safe. that’s rlly what he wants is to keep those he loves safe#it’s why he was pissed in loffinlot when gillion endangered himself n the crew trying to ‘help’#it’s why he refused Lizzie’s offer at first#HE took in responsibility for every person on that boat. HE is the reason they’re there.#and he’s terrified of that action being the reason for their death#so. tldr denial turned anger and self destructive + self sacrificial behavior ^_^#also maybe a revenge arc but like. he’s not Quite the type? it would only work if it was as a way for him to distract himself#but in the long run he’s too emotionally driven and impulse to have a whole Grudge Arc#jrwi#chip#og post#answered#aroacegilliontidestrider#give me a second I’m gonna rb w the tags added I just needed the lone ratio first for Jokes HDKEB

Edit: it's so sad. These little tugboats served humans so well for decades. They were discarded, left to rust, and slowly be pulled to the depths of the ocean?
There is something so heartbreaking to me about discarding anything, especially those objects that carry with them such history and served us so well. Something almost dishonorable about how we treat them. (And yes, I realize I am talking about boats.) XD
//
Looking up photos of the "ship graveyard," the "tugboat graveyard" or the Staten Island boat graveyard in Arthur Kill, as it is technically known while listening to John Murphy's Adagio in D Minor (featured in the film Sunshine) now has me in tears.
I anthropomorphize far too often and listen to music with such gravitas while doing so... It really has to stop.

Do you ever really think about what happened in The Resurrectionists?
Tumblr media
Aziraphale spent that entire time trying to save Elspeth's soul from being damned to Hell.
Every questionable choice he made was done so because he was trying to help Elspeth and also trying to find new ways to decrease human suffering.
He was working really fucking hard to do his job, but he made mistakes along the way because he is constantly struggling with the knowledge that the rules become a lot more convoluted as life becomes more complicated.
Tumblr media
Digging up bodies is wrong, but Elspeth was poor and acting in desperation to take care of herself and Wee Morag so they wouldn't have to continue living on the streets.
He is the one who encouraged her to dig up another body because he realized that Mister Dalrymple was trying to help teach those learning to become doctors so they could do better to decrease human suffering when it was their turn to help others.
Tumblr media
He wasn't able to save Wee Morag after she was shot by a grave gun, and watched in dismay as Elspeth sold her body to Mister Dalrymple so she could get off the streets.
And when that didn't work the way she'd hoped, she decided that her life meant nothing anymore and decided she was better off dead.
Aziraphale had been spending that entire minisode trying to save Elspeth's soul from Hell, but he ultimately realizes that he made things worse even though he was trying so hard to do the right thing.
Heaven didn't care that he failed. Heaven has already said "we're the good guys, we're just not doing anything to stop the bad guys". Aziraphale was doing the job given to him by God. He made a mistake, but he thought he was doing the right thing because he cares about human souls. He still wants to protect humanity from Hell. That's literally his job.
Crowley saw someone digging up a body in the graveyard and immediately realized he didn't need to do anything.
Instead he watches.
He listens to Elspeth and finds it easier to sympathize with her plight because he's in the same boat in many ways. It doesn't matter what he does because he won't be able to climb his way out of Hell.
Tumblr media
He listens to Aziraphale and he challenges the angel when he disagrees with some of the things he's saying.
He doesn't interfere with Elspeth or Aziraphale though.
The discussion that he and Aziraphale have with Mister Dalrymple teaches Crowley something just as much as it teaches Aziraphale.
Before he learns the reason that Mister Dalrymple cuts open dead bodies in the first place, he's cheering to the idea of more murder.
Tumblr media
That tumor that Aziraphale hugs to his chest is just as much of a learning moment for Crowley. He hadn't considered why someone might have a good reason to cut up dead bodies, but Crowley and Aziraphale both love children and they both just learned that a child died with a tumor inside of him.
Crowley didn't realize anymore than Aziraphale did just how much danger Wee Morag and Elspeth were in from digging up bodies of rich people.
It was when Crowley saw that Elspeth was about to kill herself that he realized he could no longer sit back and do nothing.
Tumblr media
As a demon, it should have been easier for Crowley to accept that Hell was winning another soul, but the truth is that the entire time Aziraphale was working so hard to save Elspeth's soul, Crowley was able to act as a spectator because she was already headed down the path towards Hell.
Crowley had just watched Aziraphale work so hard to save this human soul, this soul who had just lost the woman she loved who was wanting to end her own life so she could see Wee Morag again, and he realized he couldn't sit back and watch anymore. He knew Elspeth wouldn't see Wee Morag again if she killed herself because Hell cares just as little about how complicated human life is as Heaven does.
He used Aziraphale's money to bribe Elspeth into being properly good so she could go to Heaven. He saved her knowing that he was offering the win to Heaven just so she could see Wee Morag again.
Tumblr media
It's important to remember that neither Heaven nor Hell give a single solitary fuck about humanity or the complications that arise as life becomes more problematic. Humanity exists within all shades of grey.
Heaven does nothing to stop Hell. Hell spends eternity torturing humans and other demons. Neither side is good. Neither side is ideal.
And in the end, Crowley did what he did because Aziraphale was doing the right thing by trying to save Elspeth's soul from eternal torment, something she doesn't deserve because she was simply trying to survive in a system that has always put poor people at a disadvantage. Aziraphale learned this too. He learned that there is no inherent virtue behind poverty.
Tumblr media
To shades of grey.

I guess it's time to start moving some content from twt over here! For those who don't know me, I'm a public librarian with a special interest in polar and nautical history, and I love nothing more than connecting readers with good books. I've managed to convert some friends to my way of thinking, and one of them coined the phrase "sad boat books" to describe the types of books that I'm always reading and recommending. Here is my first list of sad boat books-- I can personally vouch for all of them!
