#anyway also the fact that they can play on the phrase 'call me ishmael'

puts my head in my hands

im so so so sure ishmael is actually captain ahab

#theres a final piece of the puzzle that im not getting and its WHY ahab would take ishmael's name but #im so sure im so sure im so sure #the fact that snagharpoon has her tied to the harpoon she throws #the fact that her keyword is hearse and that's part of ahab's final speech #and in that sense she is the 'hearse' that carries the body #my theory is that she's captain ahab that lost her crew and becomes ishmael to carry on that memory but in spite of - or because of - that #and cannot give up her revenge against that whale even more now #and refers to her former self as a madwoman #the thirst manifesto #anyway also the fact that they can play on the phrase 'call me ishmael' #as in that is not your real name CAPTAIN AHAB
