thinking about Tommy and Gibson, two strangers with nothing in common (they don’t even speak the same language) but the need to survive, about Tommy immediately helping Gibson burying the body and Gibson offering Tommy precious water, about them always sticking together and never considering the possibility of parting ways, about Gibson saving the lives of Tommy and countless others on the ship and Tommy defending Gibson passionately when he has no proof that Gibson isn’t a spy, about Gibson saving the lives of Tommy and everyone else on the Dutch trawler at the cost of his own life, about Tommy likely not noticing Gibson’s absence in the chaos and not noticing until he’s safely on the Moonstone,
