Black Sails Rewatch - 2x08

My father told me about these men, about their natures, so I know that any appearance of civility from them is but a glimpse of the men they once were. A g h o s t that shows itself only while the darker things that now govern their souls lay dormant. Though I’m forced to wonder if this illusion is no accident at all, but theater for my benefit, orchestrated by someone so awful, even monsters such as these have no choice but to dance to the tune he plays for them. Which leads me to the one thought I find most frightening and most difficult to dismiss. What happens if that m a n decides the theater no longer serves his purposes and he lets the monsters loose?

the bisexuality was there. it didnt change anything. it didn't save anyone. there were just too many forces against it. but it still matters that the bisexuality was there

You ever go for a while without watching Black Sails and think that maybe all the analysis we're doing here on tumblr dot com is a wild extrapolation and we've taken it way further than intended, and then you rewatch it and are reminded that no, they were doing everything we say and more we haven't realized yet

the thing for me about watching flint's final speech is that i had seen it in gif form multiple times before watching the show. like i'd come across it on the dash and would always be like "yeah powerful stuff for sure" before scrolling on. and thus i sort of assumed it wouldn't hit that hard when watching it in context but uhhhhhhhhhhh. NOT a correct assumption. to put it lightly.

Hello Black Sails fandom! I am a decade late but I finally started watching and oh boy guys I am in it

I havent finished it yet but it is driving me insane so naturally I have A LOT of sketches. So let's start with some Silver sketches. Show me a character that's a little bitch who lies constantly and that's my guy

Watching black sails is just repeatedly watching Eleanor look at all the options available to her, spot the absolute worst of them all, ask "is anyone gonna take this one?" and not wait for an answer

I can’t help but think of Thomas in s4 when Flint is doing everything he can to die for the cause. I wonder how Thomas would feel knowing Flint was so desperate to martyr himself for Thomas’ ideals. With the way Thomas is dead-wifed, we only know what Flint thinks that Thomas would think. He’s a ghost in the story, he doesn’t really get to make decisions or have opinions. Would Thomas truly be happy knowing that Flint was willing to lay down his life for Thomas’ cause? After the reunion joy is over, I do wonder what that conversation (or lack thereof) would look like.

It occurred to me that I don’t draw Miranda enough and that needs to be changed…
