Reblog if you think asexuality is a legitimate sexuality.

I'm trying to prove something.

Will never not giggle at Nedward's "happy birthday :)"

Jopson, Dundy & JFJ get an entire fully stocked fashion designer's atelier with fabrics & trims & buttons! Bridgens visits sometimes when he's not working the library with his Harry (Peglar ships' tattoo artist?)

who else has comforting fix-it like scenarios about the terror/the coldboys that their brain’s invented and they like to think about sometimes, because im getting dangerously close to posting mine unprompted

Terror brainworms: I had to make a welsh-wig.

I decided not to do the 'curls' as they are on the show because they absolutely *eat* yarn and I didn't have that much left of this grey (that matches my Terror-inspired fingerless gloves). I think these garter-stitched double-ups will be just as effective as curls or bobbles would be for the purpose of a welsh-wig (they stop water dripping down the back of your coat).

I made them by knitting the current row of stitches together with picked up stitches from a row 7 rows previous (basically - pick up a stitch from row 7 rows behind, knit it together with current stitch, pick up new stitch...and so on).

This is in dk-weight (8ply) 100% wool at 6 stitches per inch, like my gloves (not historical as it's not fine enough, but yarn I had on hand, plus some close-but-not-that-close darker yarn when I ran out, which I think they definitely would do in the 1840s). I feel like one (at least) of the Terror boys would have mended their wig with some other yarn!

I've put this on Eric, a stuffed hippo, who is why my tumblr is called 'hippocrafty' - the original plan was for Eric to model my crafts. I'm a) cursed to live in a warm & fairly dry climate & b) have long hair, so I won't get much use out of a welsh-wig for its original purpose, but it's a warm comfy beanie with a bit more to keep my neck & ears warm when I have my hair up so I'm very happy with it.

The cow-story scene! I'm wondering, given that (real) Jopson was lashed early in his career (was show Jopson lashed?), whether (show) Jopson is dying from the scurvy faster than some others because he's got reopened wounds all over his back. (show) Crozier saw the state of Fitzjames -- if (show) Jopson was lashed too, he'd know what the scurvy was doing to him. And he tells him a story they both know to comfort him (and this is their last not-hallucinating scene together)! A story, to say goodbye, perhaps?
