“If I leave them here, will you bathe on your own?” she asks. Flint does not answer, and she feels something catch in her throat. He will not, she knows – he has not taken the effort to so much as remove his shirt or attempt to deal with his bleeding wounds, preferring instead to sit, exhausted, on the barrel, staring into the middle distance, contemplating God alone knows what. She cannot blame him – there has been much to think on this day. She herself cannot put out of her mind just how close she has come to losing this – to losing him.
Madi decides not to be sent away after her rescue. When she returns to Skeleton Island, she finds a betrayal in progress and takes steps to save her friend and put her people’s choice regarding the war back in their hands.

Hey New Followers!
Hi friends! There’ve been a whole bunch of you lately, so this seems like an opportune time for a PSA. Just so you know – I post and reblog a lot of Black Sails stuff on here and I am absolutely no flavor of Silver fan. I tag all posts that are Silver-negative with #John Silver critical, so if you don’t want to see those, I fully understand and that’s the tag to blacklist. I also post some personal things on here – I try to tag all work-related bitching with #Dear Coworkers or #Pagan Rants (my url used to be Dreamingpagan and I haven’t changed my tagging system for that). Fic gets tagged with #fic and the title of the work. Other than that, please let me know if you need anything tagged and I will happily make a serious attempt to remember to do so – I’m usually pretty good about it and I don’t want to trigger anyone or get anyone fired if you’re tumbling at work.

Hey everybody – I know it’s been forfuckingever but I’ve finally managed to get another chapter of To the Upper Air done! Comments, kudos, likes and reblogs are desperately needed and wanted – this winter is kicking my butt and the news isn’t helping. Anyway, here’s the chapter, in which Miranda listens in on a conversation, we finally find out what our villains are up to, and Thomas reflects on architecture, statuary, and how his boyfriend is a blithering idiot when it comes to John.
That’s right. We’re going there. OT4 here we come!
