because I am at heart always going to be someone who binge watched all of black sails in a month and desperately loves queer people giving a giant fuck you to the heteropatriarchy and finding joy in spite of it all, more thoughts on Jim Playfair, English Exile Extraordinaire.
I think about scenarios in which Jim finds himself running into his family all of the time. my latest version of this rambling is, “what if his sister elopes with someone that their father didn’t approve of and ALSO runs away to New York?” because I just find that to be very very fun and also no matter which you spin it, via modern au or otherwise, Valentine Wilde is a delightfully appalling boyfriend to introduce to your high-minded noble British family. just picture the hijinks!
