jamesvflint:

so @jamesbarlow and i were discussing modern au flint being an active angry political twitter ranter. cussing a lot and starting thread fights and @ ing the uk prime minister saying shit like “i’m surprised you can hear me with your head so far up your ass” and @ ing trump saying “i will see you hanged” a la toby stephens’ actual twitter 

we decided that the 1700s equivalent of angry tweeting would be thus:

flint sends two burning ships to london’s shores with huge banners that only go up in flames when enough people have seen them. 

the first says GET the other says FUCKED 

redcoat #1 “fucked get? what does that mean–” 
redcoat #2 “for god’s sake william, it’s GET FUCKED”

Sorry for ranting but it’s just so goddamn funny that all the pirates thought Flint stayed at an evil witch’s house when in reality all that him and Miranda were doing was drink a lot of tea, read books and work the garden. I mean, that’s a life goal.

he wasn’t going inland to be anointed with the blood of infants, he was returning home to catch up on his chores

Hey ^^ What do you suppose was Thomas’ inner monologue when he first saw James?

candlewinds:

well the FIRST thing you need to know is that I just went to rewatch this scene and TEARS are now generously coating my EYEBALLS oh my god. [scribbling in notebook] ‘reminder: fight bear mccreary’

ANYWAY, SHALL WE EXAMINE THE EVIDENCE?!?

something that always makes me giggle about this scene is that thomas is mid-conversation with another man (speaking in a quiet business-like tone) when james comes up those steps all bright hair and serious eyes saying, very loudly, “LORD THOMAS HAMILTON.” and thomas turns and once he does he’s just like “……..anyway I’m talking to ribbon boy now. I’m gonna talk to ribbon boy for the rest of my life. it’s nice talking to other people but here is ribbon boy so. you get it.” did that other individual just stand there while thomas continued to ogle james or did he awkwardly shuffle away? maybe he was also ogling. IT’S A MYSTERY.

I wanna say this is the greatest example of “oh no he’s hot” I’ve ever seen in my life but since we’re talking about t dot ham here it was probably more along the lines of, “HOOOOOO BOY LOOK AT THIS. LOOK WHAT IS STANDING BEFORE ME. THAT IS…..NICE. THAT IS VERY NICE. 10/10. oh wait are you the liaison sent by the admiralty? you are?!? 15/10. BLESSED DAY. TRULY MAGNIFICENT.”

of course afterwards he gets all Serious Business and gives his “you’re cute but I gotta make sure you’re COMMITTED, lieutenant” speech, bc my darling boy does not mess around. but I’m pretty sure thomas’ main reaction to james mcgraw walking into his life was PLEASANTLY SURPRISED™ and he continued to be pleasantly surprised by him again and again thereafter :’’’)
