a story is true, a story is untrue and a story is very queer, how about that. (i relate to john silver because i too am a bisexual disaster)

at this point it's common knowledge that in the grand scheme of things, thomas metaphorically represents penelope, and flint represents odysseus. it takes odysseus ten years to come back to penelope, it takes james ten years to find his way back to thomas. this thread is how✨ I know we all know this, but I just want to reiterate the concept because every time I think about it I feel like I am going insane. so, indulge me, please. because, guess what, this parallel is yet another hint that thomas is alive at the end of black sails, and so is flint!

sorry I need to vent because I'm nearing the end of my fourth rewatch of #BlackSails and this show is a fucking masterpiece let me tell you.

On today's agenda: another example of the narrative of the show validating #SilverFlint as canon through mirroring in 4x04 and 4x10 🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️ ImageImage After learning about the Savannah plantation from Max, Silver asks Flint a very simple question: now that we are so close to achieving everything we've worked for, wouldn't you trade it all (this war, Nassau, me, wouldn't you trade US) to have Thomas back?
