we do not talk abt Mr. Gates enough.
he's carrying out the most intensive damage control that is being in kahoots w James Flint - the MOMENT he gets affairs to a manageable level Flint is pulling some unimaginable shit.
he'll show up on deck w his fuckass ponytail spewing a whole monolog that really chalks up to "Gentlemen!!! We are blowing up our own ship today!!! For a better tomorrow!!" and the crew turns to Gates like "how the fuck did you let this happen"
i KNOW his ass clocked Silver as an equally (if not more) delusional bitch than Flint. whenever he saw them have a single positive interaction, he prob thought: "Good. good for you. truly, a match made in heaven. good luck with reality"
