Admiral Hennessey: My concern with you is that which cannot be known, that thing which arises in you passions are aroused. Good sense escapes you. All men have it, but yours… yours is different. Darker. Wilder. I imagine it’s what makes you so effective as an officer, but when exposed to extremes, I could not imagine what it is capable of.
Admiral Hennessey: Also, btw, you’re fired from the career you spent 20 years building and exiled under threat of death with your girlfriend and your boyfriend is going to spend the rest of his life in an asylum, where he will be driven mad and kill himself.
Admiral Hennessey: There’s no way this can end badly.
Tag: it’s true
what am I going to do though
there is literally no other show like this on tv
to start with a bisexual woman controls the business of some of the most dangerous pirates alive and has a relationship with one of them – who happens to be a former slave – before escaping execution for her crimes
she also has a relationship with the biracial, lesbian, slave-born prostitute/madam who then forms a poly relationship with a bisexual pirate woman and her boyfriend, oh and she also basically becomes queen
meanwhile a gay navy officer becomes a pirate after losing the man he loves and plans his revenge and redemption with the woman the two of them were also in a poly relationship with
he then teams up with a disabled conman and an island of escaped slaves – led by a current slave, his queen and their daughter – to fight a war against england
and on top of this, the characters are fully formed and motivated, the action scenes are incredible and the dialogue is perfect
so yeah
what am I going to do
