Reasons why Lucius can't die: this video

so we all as a fandom collectively decided that he's okay, right? i refuse to believe he actually died there at the end he's too iconic

he can't die. he's the only braincell on the ship 😭

"i think im just so-so but i carry myself like im cute" same energy

LUCIUS STILL COUNTING WHILE SHAKING STEDE(WEARING BLACKBEARD'S CLOTHES)'S HAND IS SENDING ME

Given the way this show already rejects realism (characters just finding each other at sea with a rowing boat etc) I fully expect Lucius to still be alive next season

“I am incredible at keeping secrets! My mom thought I liked girls for years.” An icon.

I love him so much... Even in the background of huge group shots he acts like the main character I love that

I actually hadn't caught the fact that he keeps counting with his fingers in the background. Nice touch

fr tho the way Lucius is just Stede and Ed’s emotional support gay is so funny also the way he’s like hey you alright?? bc he’s genuinely concerned,,,MAN. he better be doing a bruno cosplay bc istg

Pirates calling each other babe is sending me. I wish I had HBO so I could watch this :(

One 20 min conversation with him could literally solve all my life's problems

The cut in when he says PLeAse put your hands together had me literally snorting my drink.

Love how the fandom is collectively doing There is No War in Ba Sing Se to Lucius! He is just in one of the hidden passage ways of the ship!

his exasperated energy with pete of “why the fuck am i in love with this man” is everything to me

Sometimes the best actors are the ones who give it their all when they think the camera ISNT on them 😌

"THAT'S A BITCHY QUESTION" - Lucius Spriggs

The jeopardy music during the restaurant scene everything. Also i never noticed Lucius partying down during the turtle vs crab fight. Go girl, live your best life.

Okay so this might make ZERO sense and feels a bit like an essay, but the reason why I feel like they can't just kill off Lucius IS Ed and Stede. Lucius from the beginning is both of their confidantes. He bring them together and shows them both that they love each other. Ed throwing Lucius overboard kind of acted as one of the final straws between Ed and Stede's relationship breakdown as Lucius acts as a form of communication between them (He is the reader and writer of the crew "double threat"). If Ed and Stede do end up together again (Which only seems like a natural pipeline for the story), then Lucius most likely needs to be there to be the communicator again. The only thing that may happen though is that the writers think it's a better idea to finally see Ed and Stede figuring their relationship out for themselves instead of having Lucius there to babysit them and their relationship. It should also be said as well that as soon as Ed and Stede were separated from Lucius at the military training base thing, THAT was when their relationship took a turn for the worst as Stede no longer had Lucius there to talk to and get his feeling out and that manifested into Stede leaving Ed on the beach. He didn't "Talk it through as a crew" because Lucius was no longer there. So, thinking about it now it could go either way, BUT, we won't be sure because according to all of TV ever no body means no death so far. Its schrodinger's Lucius.

"i wasn't being sarcastic, that's just how i talk" this man is too relatable

i love this little man beyond belief edit: 6:36 the music when he got pushed off the boat KILLED ME omfg

"NO PLEASE I have this whole thing with my back-" god SAME

2:03 I love how he still counting backwards in the background. He is so cute!!!💓😭

sidenote “this fictional character… he’s having a hard time?” your little caption “thats it thats the show” made me SCREAM LMAODJFJHC

PLEASE HE’S THE FUNNIEST BITCH ON THAT SHIP

Alternate title: Lucius being the long-suffering emotional support twink for the entire crew of the Revenge

Lucius is my absolute favorite character, and that’s saying a lot because every single character on this show is exceptional.

0:48 the fact that this line was improvised makes makes it even funier lmao

I absolutely refuse to believe Lucius is dead, that man is simply too iconic for death, sorry

I love his absurdly high energy reaction to Jim and Olu in bed together as if him and Black Pete didn't get it on in the corner of the same room as half the crew! Like my DUDE. Pot meet kettle! xP

I love how grounding Lucius is. He's very down to earth, as much as Izzy even, but in a totally different way. He enhances every scene he's in, he's so real to me man!

his facial expressions are amazing even when he’s in the background they’re just so good

I hope we get a little backstory for him, if he survived… He’s even less “piratey” than Stede. So where’d he come from? He was offed pretty unceremoniously. I find it hard to believe he’s gone for good.

Lucius carries the whole community on his back. We love him

the little shoe spinning when he gets thrown overboard sends me every time

i never noticed that he was still counting when ed and stede switched clothes 😂

LMAO I never noticed him counting in the backgroundd

His laugh after the Izzy shit fuckin kills me, he’s such a good actor

I love Lucius. He's so supportive of Stede and Ed's relationship with each other

Love that man. He feels so real, like someone I could meet in real life and definitely like someone I’ve come across online more than once. Man I just love good representation with good characters that feel authentic

i love that as a collective group we have all just moved past the question of is he alive and are just discussing how he survived at this point. my personal contenders: washed up to shore and is working as a barman at spanish jackie's, hiding in the walls (a classic), and saved by dolphins

He was nothing but supportive of their relationship and wanted to genuinely help once it seemingly ended. I hope for Ed’s sake that he really didn’t kill him.

can't wait to see this man pop out of a secret passage in season 2

2:58 his little laugh of success makes me laugh in return

A person I met on Grindr introduced me to this show 😅 the most wholesome Grindr meet up ever. I went to their house everyday for a week to watch this with them 😂😂😂 😅

THE JOHN MULANEY “NOOT FUNNAAAAY” was SO well used

he’s just constantly on the verge of an anxiety attack (and who can blame him tbh)

You managed to make me laugh at the last scene where I usually scream in pain haha good job

This man is literally my favorite character from this show. He's not allowed to to be dead, he simply CANNOT be dead

Please please please don’t be dead

I actually forgot about the bite. I was racking my brain for the rest of the series as to how his finger could have gotten infected and I haven't had time for a re-watch yet. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

He’s the chaotic support gay, and I love it

Learning that nathan was absolutely terrified during the wooden boy scene makes it a lot funnier ngl.

I refuse to believe that Lucious isn’t hiding in Stede’s secret passageways, I REFUSE

"I think I'm just so-so but I've decided to carry myself like I'm cute" is my new life mantra

if season 2 episode 1 doesnt open with Lucius having somehow managed to survive getting tossed overboard i dont think my gay little heart will be able to take it ;_;

5:50 the pirates of the caribbean soundtrack AHHAHAHAH i'M DECEASED

im absolutely obsessed with this shows casting everyone feels so perfect for their character

lucius is just confused, and amazing at it

omg the music cut-ins and the audio distortions go along so perfectly with his funny little mannerisms i love him with all my heart. dying. also the cheering at 2:38 so true!! and 6:28 NDHDJSG

he’s literally SO FUNNY nathan did so well in this!

the 'I'm incredible at keeping secrets, my mum thought I liked girls for years' made me laugh harder than I ever have at a telly before

"Regrettably that's the love of my life" bfvshshshshs Your Honor I love him (them both. All of them actually). The first time I watched it I was so certain Lucius would say something like "Omg babe you can't just ask people that"

THIS VIDEO OHMYGOD I LOVE IT though the ending was uncalled for HOW DARE

He better not be dead I like him too much

I mean Lucius’s voice is a lot better than whatever the voice was in Pinocchio a true story

He’s literally the funniest character

the moment when ed asks if he can count backwards and there's the half second zoom on his face of dismay has been living in my head rent free ever since i saw this video over a month ago i feel that emotion daily but i can't express a short dramatic zoom on my terrified face in real life but like it's an incorporated gif in my internal monologue

hes just like me

Lucius is the actual main character

lmao that NOT FUNNY at 4:33 fit so well with the pirates i had to rewatch it to make sure it wasn't the actual audio

"Ineffectual gay hammering" 💀

To be fair, he’s as much of a gentleman than the gentleman pirate

Lucius and pete are the cutest (after bonnet and ed ofc)

Good news! They didn't show his death or draw it out, and he got so much screen time there's no WAY he died unceremoniously.

No body: not dead Rule of story

He's probably fine... Maybe he has gills or something... Yeah, he's fine.

i HONKED at the music you chose for the last clip!!! What fun, and some moments I hadn't noticed before, like him jamming to the jam session and partying it up during the crab turtle fight! Nathan Foad does a great job of being in character any time he's on screen, no matter what. Even in the bit with Spanish Jackie, he's so clearly On It once he realizes she has Jim's knife. And great timing for the music and his pre-pass out to pass out looks.

I've seen the show all the way through twice now and rewatched a ton of bits, and there are still details in this I hadn't noticed before. Lucius living it up on the beach?? GOD.

lucius screaming in terror is me all the time

6:28 “it’s it that’s the show” made me laugh so hard

HE IS SO ICONIC I LOVE HIM, IF HE DOESN'T COME BACK I WILL SCREAM

op i need you to know the zoom after the "can you count? *backwards*?" line made me laugh so inconsolably hard i threw my headphones on the ground, could barely stand, was crying, and my roomate judged the shit out of me (affectionately) it was great

LET HIM LIVE PLEASE I LOVE HIM TOO MUCH

Sometimes i forget how much the secondary characters make this show. They have so much heart and care put into them and i just love that

Lucius better come back - I relate to his so-done-with-this-vibe. Plus he was like one of the only rational people onboard, sort of the pirate therapist to these beautiful gay idiots.

Lucius is the best friend we all need 😊

how did i not notice his little head dance in the jam room!!! this man is a blessing

I swear every actor in the crew brings their own hilarious energy and I love it

The amount of love I have for Lucius is *humongous*

STOP I never noticed him counting on his hands in the background before LMAO!!

3:54 live Lucius reaction:

how am i in love with EVERY CHARACTER IN THIS SHOW-

Ok i'm gonna have to rewatch and just keep my eye on lucius in the background bc i had no idea he was over there doing all that

i would lay my life down for him omg

I NEVER NOTICED HIM DANCING IN THE JAM ROOM SCENE PLS

Thank you for the gore warning. When I first watched it there was no warning… I was eating spaghetti… it wasn’t fun. So thank you for doing that, I just put my hand over my screen 👍

this is one of the best things i’ve ever watched

NOT THE PIRATES OF HE CARIBBEAN SONG WHEN HE READS THE BOOK !!!! love lucius love this 💙

Lucius vibing in the JAM ROOM! scene is everything
