You didn’t just betray my trust. You have planned to betray it all that time.

daily reminder that thomas and james held each other real tight last night and every night because they are very in love

my-truest-flinthamilton:

this fandom can easily be divided in two groups that have very different views and interpretations regarding Black Sails.

And you can tell who belongs to which group by whether they call him Flint or James

Black Sails XIX Countdown

Day 6 – Episode VI – favorite scene.

Anybody else got a point they would like to make? While we are in battle, the Captain’s orders are the law. That is what we signed up to. That is what we agreed. Now the order’s been given. Heed it!

Beware the women, Mr. Featherstone. They bite.
I’m in love with a good woman, sir. I’m not concerned.

Nothing else ever seems to hurt like the smile on your face

bean-about-townn:

I do not seek your partnership because I am too weak to defend myself. I don’t seek it to protect my things or to increase profit. Then why do you? You’ve been gone eight years, and suddenly my partnership is this valuable to you? Why? Eight years. Nine wives. No sons. There is an instinct to leave behind something made in one’s own image. Nature has denied me the ability, it would seem, but not the need.

Chapters: 5/9
Fandom: Black Sails
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence
Relationships: Captain Flint/Thomas Hamilton, Vane/Madi
Characters: Captain Flint, Thomas Hamilton, Madi (Black Sails), Charles Vane, Admiral Hennessey (Black Sails), John Silver (briefly), Abigail Ashe, “Calico” Jack Rackham
Additional Tags: So one day after the finale I sat down, and decided to find out what happens if Charles Vane is still alive post s4, you know – presuming he was out of action but not dead, and then the thought hit me that Madi and Vane would make a cute couple, and well here you have the results, not Silver friendly, post finale fix-it, Grieving, found family of a sort, All the people that love James and Thomas come together to rescue them from the shame farm
Summary:

When he’s transported from Nassau to Jamaica, Charles Vane does not expect to leave the jail in Port Royal alive. When he’s released as part of a prisoner exchange agreement at the end of the war –

There might, he thinks, just possibly be something wrong with him, because he is about to go rescue James Flint from slavery with the help of a princess and an admiral of the English fleet, and he’s not quite certain but he thinks he may even have been sober when he agreed to do it.

I love that Dufresne says “He likes his books” with an eyeroll. He could have said it with a shrug and it wouldn’t be as much fun. Flint’s love of books must be so ridiculous that it warrants an eyeroll. lol

Since that’s coming from literally the only other lettered man on board – you’re absolutely right! I’m imagining book nerd James McGraw surfacing every time they’ve taken a prize, leading to him spending hours perusing the captain’s library instead of helping to move cargo or do literally anything else. Imagine Gates coming in to find James surrounded by books he’s pulled off the shelves, giving him a look like “you know you can’t possibly carry all of those, right?” and getting the stubborn “they’re coming with me” look in return.
