MIRANDA  X CLYTEMNESTRA 

[dronesofthedesert2023-deactivat]

[i.d.: a photoset with images from black sails, with words overlaying each one to form a longer quote. the images are: a younger miranda hamilton and james mcgraw on a boat, young miranda crying, a close up of alfred hamilton, a medium shot of alfred in a chair, miranda screaming in peter ashe’s dining room, colonel rhett holding up a gun, miranda lying on the floor with a bullet wound in her head, below the deck of a ship, flint looking out to a burning charles town, and peter ashe slumped over on the ground. the quote reads, “oh now you pull out your code of justice - call me accursed, demand my exile! what about them? what about him? this man who, without a second thought, as if it were a goat dying, sacrificed his own child. isn’t it this man you should have sent into exile, to pay for that polluted deed? instead you pass judgement on me! well i warn you, threaten me all you like and yes, if you crush me, you’ll be giving the orders. but if some god ordains the opposite, however late, old men, i’ll teach you your place.”]

zero stars for nolan because odysseus, on his journey home to ithaca, was NOT visited by a ghost that tells him that once he reaches his home, once he slays all his enemies and sets his house in order he must do one last thing before he can rest. the ghost does NOT tell him to pick up an oar, walk inland, keep walking, until somebody mistakes that oar for a shovel. for that would be the place that no man has ever been troubled by the sea. and that's where he'd find peace.

i wish good fic writers wrote quality fanfic about jason todd where he's not buddy buddy with the rest of the so called bat family and he gets to live his own fulfilling life separate from them and he's an independent vigilante/crime lord doing what he thinks is best for gotham and he's estranged from the family and part of the rogue's gallery but that's not as big of a tragedy as people make it out to be because he exists in the same liminal space as catwoman talia al ghul harvey dent two face where bruce has genuine love and compassion for them but will run into conflict with them when their values and interests clash and that's not a really a tragedy conflict happens all the time with family the real tragedy is if we declawed and defanged and muzzled jason todd until he is unrecognizable from his cool character as red hood where he stood for what he believed in despite it being an inconvenience to everyone involved. but no, it seems that the most popular iteration of jason todd is when he's this spineless toothless lackey for batman using rubber bullets because daddy said killing was bad :( if jason todd ever goes back to having "all murder is bad" as one of his core moral values again it should be a conclusion he comes to himself after years of self reflection not because its something he was strong armed into by the fucking bat. OH and i dont want him to be woobified and overly victimized. OH and catherine and willis todd are not villainized in the backstory to prop up bruce wayne as the better parent. is that too much to ask, chat?

I’m so tired of hyping up black sails to people and then when they ask where to watch it I have to say Nowhere In The Entire World

The BEST trope is when a character tells another “let’s run away together, we can leave all of this behind and start a new life somewhere” and gets rejected. And then the rest of the tragedy unfolds
