Papa Crozier............. ;o;

Another Victorian for Kate Marsh to collect like pokemon (it's a thing)

Hi gels! Welcome to the game!! I play Kate here from Life is Strange and Kieren Walker, a sad zombie boy from BBC's shortlived (alas) In The Flesh!

Kate will have rosehip syrup for Crozier too when she learns he's here!! She is Edward's Favourite Duckling to Nanny, and she's already learned a little about the Expedition (mostly the 'being trapped for years and slowly dying from scurvy and lead poisoning' part) and told him she'd give any future Expedition members rosehip syrup or rosehip tea that she's been busy making lately! So she'll have to gently pester him at some point.

Heeeeey Kate! Glad to meet you! I vaguely know both of those canons, which is unusual for me because I know like zero things!! :D

Crozier will be delighted by the rosehip (and her kindness, of course)! Hot tea in general isn't something he's had in some time, so that'll be just a treat.

He'll probably be a little freaked out that she knows all about the expedition, but in a oh-that's-too-upsetting-to-talk-about sort of way. He's gonna be a little cagey once he realizes that some of his crew is there. Alive. Not frozen corpses.

I feel like most people know Life Is Strange to an extent, but I am !!! at someone hearing about In The Flesh considering it came out back in 2013 and literally had 9 episodes before they cancelled it. ;o; Ohh, that's amazing tho!

He can have all the rosehip tea he wants, okay. ;u;

She's at least had the... kind of gentler version of events, considering it's been Little and Goodsir explaining things to her and they're likely to want to keep plenty of The True Horrors away from her. But she understands Things Aren't Good and It's A Whole Lot. Goodsir has told her about Hickey causing a mutiny (mostly to keep her away from him), but she does still think that there's hope for them in being rescued or getting to home eventually...... this poor sweet summer child....

And yeeeah, that's a bit awkward for you there, Francis. Oops.

I love me some niche, canceled tv shows that we Too Good for this World

Poor, poor Kate. Sometimes the pain of reading history books actually can spare you pain later -- weird but true! Crozier's just going to see how many distractions he can come up with to dodge answers about the fate of the expedition.

LOOK THERE'S A BEAR [old man trudging swiftly in the opposite direction]

[castitas]

almost a decade and I still haven't forgiven the BBC and I never will

jkhdfkjg God, I think she's going to be absolutely devastated either way. I don't think there's going to be anything that'll soften that blow for her.

LMAO FRAUNCIS PLEASE at the very least she's not all that prying!! He is safe...... somewhat. Not really. There's just your sons to deal with.......
