So, headcanon time- Gates is Avery. He’s just about the right age, and history tells us that Avery was shortish, stoutish, and had a “merry complexion” and a sort of dangerous air about him. Oh, also Gates’ first name is Hal, which is short for Henry, and he wanted Avery’s journals but doesn’t seem to have needed to read them. Can we say “they’re actually his and he didn’t want anyone else recognizing that handwriting”?

A late portrait study for the Madi Appreciation Week! Main reference was the scene in episode XXXII (4.04) where she rides a horse. Please, do not repost elsewhere 🙂
It got me thinking more about her books, how they might have come to the island, sent to her by Mr Scott, or brought there by others, and then there were a lot of Thoughts, and it kind of went from there, so… little musings/ficlet(?) thing(?) below
I love that Idelle, a character introduced as basically “background prostitute” in episode 1, goes on to be a major supporting character, gets one of the most iconic speeches in the entire show and becomes one of the people ruling Nassau in the end. That alone is enough to make any comparison to game of thrones complete bullshit, like, sex workers get to be actual humans… with personalities. Who don’t die in creepy sexualized ways.
