Ofc Hennessey knew. And I don’t he wanted to betray James. Fucking Alfred threatened him too.

I couldn’t agree more. I just can’t make Hennessey in that gifset and Hennessey five seconds before The Betrayal match with Hennessey during the scene in his office, and the difference is Alfred fucking Hamilton.

Ugh. Idk where you live but in north Sweden it has been raining for two days straight and I have to work in that rain and I’m so fucking tired of it.

I’m on the east coast in the US and it’s hotter than Hades’ living room here, hence the death of my poor innocent fan (thankfully temporary. after I made that post, it decided fucking with me today was just cruel and probably inadvisable and revived). Sorry about the rain – I know that always gives me brain fuzz and makes it hard to concentrate.

On a larger scale I think he did the right thing. He stopped a war. (And I blame BS’ creators for wanting to be historically accurate for that. The war had been a good thing but it never happened so.) But how he did was pretty disgusting.

Honestly, I can’t say that I agree, simply because yes, a war is ugly. A war is a terrible, horrible thing that everyone should absolutely consider the very last resort, but things like slavery do not end peacefully. It’s all very well to say that Flint and Madi’s war would have cost lives, but the reality is that slavery cost several million more, and even if they were doomed to lose, rebellions, even failed ones, give others hope. They give people the idea that fighting back is an option, and eventually somewhere along the line someone will succeed, but not if no one ever stands up and says “no more.”

But there’s a lot of McGraw in s1 too,

Yeah, there’s a fair bit of McGraw in Season 1 Flint, too, but season 1 Flint is a cunning bastard at the same time with a kind of vast disdain for his crew, and I don’t see that in Season 4 Flint. I think that’s what distinguishes the two for me – McGraw cares about people so very much whereas Flint is all strategy and “the ends justify the means.”
