Summary
AN: This fic is on a short hiatus for the holiday season, and will likely be finished in January 2026!
The officers of the Franklin Expedition live to die another day.
1860
“Mr. Jopson,” said James. “I had hoped I might question you.”
It was a plain falsehood. It was Francis he’d hoped to question. And he would have questioned him, too, save that he was three days too late; the old Irishman who lived on the hill with only his manservant for company — the navy man — yes, Crozier, the same who’d been in the papers some years past for that awful business in the Arctic — was dead. Dropsy, said the doctor.

Summary
This is a reference guide intended to help writers of Regency-era stories by providing a quick place to check whether a certain phrase was in use in the era, and if so, how it was used. The earliest attestation dates of phrases that postdate the Regency era might also make this guide useful to writers of neo-Victorian fiction.

Summary
He imagined they would think of him differently if they knew Crozier had once had him flogged. Perhaps they would respect him more. Then again, perhaps they would assume he was only obedient because he was afraid. It was unlikely, Jopson expected, that anyone would see it the way he had chosen to – as something like a baptism.
In which Jopson gets flogged, Crozier remembers, and both of them are Extremely Normal about this. Rated Mature for violence; this isn't strictly slash, in that nobody in this story is fully admitting their feelings even to themselves, but it isn't strictly gen either.
