Hi, there is a video in which Toby talk about the scenes cut from flashbacks in BS, it seems they were scenes of Thomas in bethlem, did you saw it ?

I haven’t seen the video, Anon, but I’ve seen people talking about it. Quite frankly, I’m happy that they made the decision to not capitalize on gay people’s pain – it was a good, responsible decision. With that said – oh gods, Thomas. My baby. I think somewhere deep down I’d kind of hoped they’d just shipped him off to the plantation right away instead of actually sticking him in Bethlem and just – ow. I’ll be over here, needing infinitely more fic where he gets to be safe and happy and start handling his trauma in a place where he’s not enslaved. And quite a few fics where he’s not traumatized that way at all.

“[There] are people who will follow any dragon, worship any god, ignore any iniquity. All out of a kind of humdrum, everyday badness. Not the really high, creative loathesomeness of the great sinners, but a sort of mass-produced darkness of the soul. Sin, you might say, without a trace of originality. They accept evil not because they say yes, but because they don’t say no.”
