Dating profile pics of the Terror/Erebus crew:
Francis Crozier - Holding a bottle of whiskey in every photo, with a caption “This is not gin”, promising the date a trip to the Platypus Pond, lots of room for your stuff in his wardrobe if needed.
Graham Gore- pics flexing biceps in the gym, "My eyes are as deep as the ocean..."
Cornelius Hickey - fake profile photo, lists jobs in places that don’t exist, “fluent in sarcasm”.
Solomon Tozer - pics holding some big fish, pics doing some reps in the gym, pics mysteriously gazing into the horizon on a hill, “Looking for my Tinderella”.
Harry Goodsir - posing with a freshly finished Croquembouche tower, a tray of baklava and some macaroons, he can bake! Doesn't like monkeys.
Edward Little - Lots of pictures of him with a dog, “I wear socks that match”.
Henry Collins- Same as above, but with photos of cats.
Sir John- profile uploaded by his wife: "You can take him!"
William Pilkington - All photos have him with (the same) group of bros, so not really sure what he looks like
John Irving - lots of holiday snaps in front of Notre Dame de Paris, Sacre Cœur, Sagrada Familia, the Vatican, looking up towards La Pietà, you get the vibe.
Stephen Stanley - empty profile with a blurry photo, hoped it would help him achieve mysterious vibes.
George Hodgson- “loves reading, music and traveling”.
Thomas Jopson- lots of pics with family, pics of him volunteering, shame about the one where he hunts for hawks.
Tommy Armitage- a black and white photo melancholically walking around Irish landscape, “No hookups”
Henry Le Vestonte- a pic holding a beer in a pub, winking, "Only hookups".
Alexander Macdonald, recently turned vegan, will tell you all about it, puts 🍆 🍑 💦 in the bio thinking it means that he washes his homegrown fruit and veg
For the prompt Gin for the Fronk 227th bday nonsense

I can't believe I fucking forgot Macca!
All day today I've been thinking about Hickey still and how he responds to those who show him some form of kindness.
I was thinking of the Big Three, as it were - Gibson, Crozier, and Tozer. Out of everyone, I think it's more than fair to say Hickey has the most intense relationships with those three and I think the fact that they're among the few people to explicitly show him kindness is really interesting.
But I forgot about Macca!
I'm rereading the script right now for the post-flogging scene in the sickbay and it's just breaking my heart and firing up my brain in all kinds of ways.
MacDonald is the only person in that room to even look at Hickey. He speaks to him gently, paternally, and goes out of his way to close a curtain and afford Hickey decency and privacy too.
But most interesting of all to me, especially given MacDonald's fate to perish by Hickey's hand, is the fact that that care and kindness goes hand in hand with agonising pain. He's literally putting salt on Hickey's wounds, after all, and in response "a new world of pain explodes in his [Hickey's] face".
Like, my mind will never not be blown by the parallel between that post-flogging scene and the slashing of the tent wall at Carnivale, another act where kindness and care for others goes hand in hand with inflicting unbearable pain.
