Does the cast of The Terror know that people ship their characters?? Does Tobias Menzies know there’s a small but fervent group of fans who simp hard for him even when he shaves his eyebrows??? I’m not a fan of actors finding out people write fanfiction of their characters but I like to imagine Jared Harris reading essay-long metas on The Terror and seeing fanart of modern AUs and beach episodes

think they must know about fitzier at least, there's been some cast / creator allusions to the effect, also alistair petrie's life mission seems to be to make sure everyone knows dr stanley fucks

he might be peripherally aware of Sans Eyebrow Simp Nation? but finding prince philip in S3-4 hot is unfortunately a mainstream position at this point among those in the crown fanbase, so I don't know if he'd be surprised

I feel you, and you know what I hope they do, the metas are tasty and I think about the lieutenant's metal band AU fanart every day of my life. equally I am glad they don't interact or talk about interacting with the fanfiction because some of us are definitely sublimating feelings for the actors into those

#see my brain read this as jared harris reading metas ON the beach and I think thats powerfully valid too #brb gonna think of his red swimming trunks and atomic pink nipple in that one photo
