It's a sad fact that incidences of domestic abuse increase during football tournaments. For example, when England loses a match, incidents of domestic abuse increase by 38% - and when England wins, they still increase by 26%.
Here are some helpful links to information about domestic abuse support in England:

while i believe des voeux sends insane text on the regular, and they do get worse when he’s drunk
le vesconte is one of Da Boi’s. he’s going out with fitzjames and gore and suddenly he’s texting you a picture a baby tiger at 2am. they are not at the zoo that’s an air field in the background and you can see the plane half way out the hanger
Very niche post for you all, but I have been looking for a cute antique fob seal for myself, which then developed into me compiling a collection of fob seals that I think each of the officers would have had.
Enjoy... (I still haven't found a seal for me yet)
Terror:
Crozier:
Very simple, no fuss. He's in the Navy so he's got an anchor, he's not bothering with any of that monogrammed nonsense and you ARE NOT getting a cutesy slogan either.
Little:
He gives me the vibe that he had a dog at home, probably a family pet, a hunting dog. He'd be too self-conscious to have a fob seal that had anything overly personal on and I think he would quite like dogs. My bet is that he saw this in the shop, went "yeah thats nice i'll get that one" and has never put much thought into it since. But he likes it and it's nice.
Hodgson:
It says "Tally Ho". Tell me right now that you don't think he'd love that.
Irving:
It says "Peace be unto you" with a little dove and olive branch. I could very much imagine all of his letters to Malcolm being sealed with this!!
Jopson (because he IS an officer!! My beloved third lieutenant):
So, while by the mid-19th century fob seals were becoming more accessible for the working class, it would still be unlikely that he would have had an overly specific one, if he did have one (which i'm choosing to believe he would).
This is an ornamental fob seal with no inscription, meaning it would be appropriate for any letter. The actual design of it is pretty and I think it is something that he would have liked.
Though I think that if he survived the expedition and was allowed to keep his promotion (it's my sleepover and i'm choosing the AU) I think he may have liked to have one with his initials on.
Erebus:
Sir John:
He would have an overly ornate fob seal with his family crest on. This fob seal in the picture had another family crest, so i'm not including it. Also important to note that this seal is solid gold.
Fitzjames:
He's got two (obviously)
So this is fob depicts a scene from the battle of trafalgar and is inscribed with "England expects this day that every man will do his duty". Which I could absolutely see him using when writing to most people. He wants people to see him as this Great Man™, so how better to show people how patriotic and English he is by sending all his letters with this?
This, however, would have made him laugh. It says "I am off" and depicts a cannon. I think any letter to his family or close friends would have had this instead.
Le Vesconte:
Honestly, I think he'd just think it looked cool. I do think though that he would have many fob seals that he would switch out regularly, this would be his favourite though.
Gore:
So this one says, "I will return", which I think suits him very well. Obviously, prior to the expedition, with them all being sailors they were all away from home regularly, but Gore was BOOKED AND BUSY, so I think he'd take this with him on his travels.
Fairholme:
Forgive me Fairholme but I know very little about you king xx
Anyway I decided to go with an ornamental but blank fob. It's yellow gold and Onyx. I think from appearance alone it would suit him.
And honorable mention (He's not an officer but tell me this isn't perfect)... Goodsir:
It's a shell!! He would have loved it!!!
Anyway just wanted to add that some of these are later 19th century but I still think they would have liked them. Also, I do still have the links for all of these so if anyone has a spare small fortune laying around and wants a victorian fob seal lmk

Oh no, now I’m thinking about “there is still time” from I Saw the TV Glow in the context of Fitzjames. Of course. About how she might have eventually learned to know and accept herself, but she didn’t have time. About all the things she hid from herself in the farthest drawer of the wardrobe, hoping to forget them, or maybe, who knows, to deal with them later, take them out and look at them properly, and accept them into her life. In time. But she ran out of time, and she never even wore that dress.
There’s a scene in the script, absolutely beautiful, that was mercilessly cut from the series, where Fitzjames, after finding out she has scurvy, covers the mirror with a cloth. It says a great deal, including. Including the fact that the thought was now closed off to her forever - the possibility of it. Yes, maybe I am a woman, but I have scurvy and we’re all slowly dying in the Arctic, so right now that doesn’t matter.
But it does matter.

just saw a pigeon doing the puffed up courtship dance thing to another pigeon, and as he was strutting around he suddenly stopped for a split second to do a very brief preen-peck at his own side, then returned to the strutting around. and i surprised myself by instantly losing respect for the male pigeon in that moment, like come on man i appreciate you had an itch or whatever but how is she supposed to feel special when you're getting distracted by bullshit like that? which on reflection i don't endorse, i mean those are pretty harsh dating norms i'm imposing on these pigeons, from a total outsider perspective, for no reason. probably not all girl pigeons are as uptight about that sort of thing as i would apparently be if i was a girl pigeon, maybe she even found it endearing who knows, i don't know her. it's none of my business really. sorry pigeons.
