yes!! especially when you remember how earlier he was saying ‘put a man on an island, give him power over other men, and it won’t be long before he realises that the limits of that power are nowhere to be seen. And no man, given that kind of power, will remain honest for very long’ – he thought that ‘the atlantic ocean, a hundred years of history, and human nature’ were what prevented an honest man being made governor – and now?? he thinks that Thomas is greater than?? all these things?????? i mean holy shit????????? he’s so fucking in love?????????????
The most romantic thing anyone has ever said: “Who better qualified to oversee the building of the New World than Thomas?” NOt just the building of Nassau, or New Providence Island… no, the whole damn NEW WORLD– give it to his boyfriend! Be more obviously in love, James <3
