silver’s “i’ve had this plan from months ago to find thomas hamilton alive so flint would give up this war to be with him so that me and you would be safe and happy away from flint’s war”
being met with madi’s “you threw away my war and betrayed your best friend so i would live even though i was ready to die for this, i was ready to let you die for this because freeing my people from slavery was a LITTLE bit more important, get the fuck out”
is so, so so sososo so so satisfying. silver genuinely believed that his betrayal of flint would gain madi’s approval? love? respect? and now he has to live with it. i think that’s what i like about the ending of silver’s arc. he has to live with his shitty fucking decisions because he never actually understood what madi wanted. and flint’s monologue on skeleton island is suddenly ringing true for him and he realises that his plan has failed. that’s some good shit.
