I can’t believe how much fandom has made me hate John Silver. Every time I come across him in a fic I click out of it. Thanks but no thanks.

- and goes about trying to meaningfully fix it
- and I'll read it
- Belewitts' Unquiet Grave for example
- but I can't with people acting as if he did nothing wrong
- give me a fic where he realizes what he did
- give me a fic where him getting the treasure from TI is in aid of fucking fixing what he broke
- I'm here for him as a character who has fucked up the worst someone could fuck up
- I'm here for him as the delightfully scary character from TI
- I'm sorry just showing up on James' and Thomas' doorstep one day is not sufficient atonement
- not after what he did to them
- or as if he deserves forgiveness in any fic when he does nothing to fix what he did
- really comes to understand it
- that was a good one
- unfortunately true
- without demanding that Madi or James or Thomas forgive him

30, She/her. Used to be DreamingPagan a long time back. Multi-fandom, mostly Black Sails these days but with a lot of Tolkien and funny things interspersed. Complete language and history nerd - be warned. I write fic and occasionally I talk about ships. View all posts by flintsredhair
