*weeps* ugh! I am DYING to know how you interpret Silver in this…I know how you feel about him and I sensed you would write Thomas being pissed..!!! But what about James??? Meg, you are a torturer. 🙂

Yeah, I’m not going to lie, this fic is basically every character that’s ever cared about James Flint McGraw doing their damnedest to make sure he gets to be happy and free and telling John Silver what they think of him in the process. I’ve resurrected Vane a. because I can and b. because Madi deserves someone who would never undercut her the way Silver did. Oh, and Hennessey’s coming along for the ride, again, because I can, and because seeing him interact with Silver as a younger version of himself – similar betrayal (although still somewhat different in that at least Hennessey’s betrayal didn’t see James enslaved), same regret – is going to be fascinating. As to James and Madi… I think their feelings on Silver are complicated because on the one hand they’re both beyond angry with him and on the other hand they trusted and loved him once so they don’t necessarily want him dead, they just don’t want to be around him. Possibly ever again in Madi’s case.
