Poor Havers.
Obviously poor Cap as well because he died
But fml poor Havers.
Being wounded after the war, having seen the horrors of the front line, then seeing Cap again realising that he isn't supposed to be there and that he smuggled himself in, Havers probably panicking because they are surrounded and every sign of affection is a high risk. And then someone confronts the man who is clearly trying to get to him and Cap collapses and basically tries to confess his love and Havers has to keep him from putting them both in danger but wants him to know that He reciprocates so he says he knows and stops him from touching his face but guides him to grab the swaggerstick so he can grab his hands. which is such a smart idea because of course a dying and scared man grabs at something and of course one has to provide comfort to loosen the grip. And then they say each others first named and the second Cap is dead he has to release his hand or else it would be suspicious. And he has to do this with a straight face.
I wonder when he finally was allowed to shed a tear, to mourn, to fall apart
I'm by now completely convinced that he went to the front to protect them both because Cap really wasn't that subtle
And Havers looked out for both of them even in Cap's final moments
It's just so tragic. Cap lost his life but Havers lost so so much as well
I really, really want to know what happened to him afterwards.

Can we talk about THIS???
I knew that the Captain (or James I guess??) would have a devastating end but I had no idea it would hit me this hard.
This rod they're both holding is called a swagger stick. They were carried by uniformed officers in WW1 as a symbol of military authority. The Captain has one throughout the series but here we see that it's not actually his but Havers'. They both hold it and each others hands until Havers lets go, giving it to him.
Looking back now, the stick is a symbol of the rank he never had. He died in shame, with stolen medals, surrounded by people who he looked up to but who resented him in turn. Havers though almost gives up his own authority to the Captain in this moment. Now, it makes so much sense why he wouldn't let go of that command when he was a ghost. When he was no longer alive, with no soldiers to command, it stopped representing his authority and became a symbol of Havers. These normal shots of him are so sad now, knowing that it's a possession they've shared.
Giving up that authority, would be like giving up the gift that Havers gave him.
I will need 3-5 business days to recover.

Even though he (luckily!!) didn’t lose the eye, I think he probably had to wear an eyepatch for at least some time.

I’ve literally never recovered from this scene by the way
Like. The way Cap holds on briefly to Havers’ finger, just for one last second of contact that’s so subtle that nobody would scrutinise Havers for it, but it’s needed desperately to convey so many unspoken things in the short time the Captain has left. But then Havers decides to take a risk - to break free of that subtlety by reaching for the Captain’s hand and resting his fingertips on top of it. To reciprocate those unspoken things loudly, for everyone to see. To thank him for every moment they shared together. To reassure his James that everything would be okay.
AND THEN THIS!! Identical to how he held it before he died, squeezing his eyes shut and attempting to remember that fleeting moment of contact. It’s not much, but it’s all he has.
Every time he’s scared, or lonely, or just in need of reassurance that he’s doing the right thing, in a way his Anthony is always there. Permanently by his side, just as the Captain had always wanted.
GOD. They just break my heart.

My dear friend recommended me to watch BBC Ghosts and now I’m OBSESSED with these series. I’ve never drawn fanart of any series before but now I’ll definitely will.
First Capvers fanart and it’s this. I regret nothing.
RIP lieutenant Havers, you would’ve love Toto.

If I think too hard about cap and his swagger stick I start to cry like when he holds it tight he’s holding havers’ hand, when he sleeps with it in his chest he’s the little spoon, when it’s under his arm he’s linking arms with havers, when he spins it around he’s dancing with havers you understand you get me
