“You raised me to respect the truth; to know it is the root of all virtue. I’m asking if you’re sending me away because someone might ask me what happened in this house last night and I would tell them.”
“Abigail, I understand that you’re upset…”
“Why aren’t you? A man and a woman rescued me, cared for me, delivered me home; now one of them is dead. The other is about to be, and the only man, it seems to me, to have committed a crime in all this still works for you. Is that not the truth?”
#blacksailsedit#abigail ashe#me screaming into the abyss: I LOVE ABIGAIL ASHE#i’m so emo about this scene#because this is abigail’s ultimate disillusionment with the idea of england and civilised society and everything that her father represents#she’d had her doubts and confusion prior to this#with the revelation that the pirates were not the monsters she’d been told they were#but this is when it shatters#abigail would have never been the same after this scene#AND WE NEVER GOT TO SEE IT!!!#i refuse to believe that abigail ashe#abigail ashe who stood up to men she didn’t know who were much bigger and stronger than her and told them to stop#abigail ashe who survived being kidnapped by pirates#abigail ashe who just called her dad the fuck out#that abigail ashe#would have just sat quietly and gone to savannah#give me an abigail who stayed in charles town and spoke out for flint at the trial#who refused to be cowed by the men trying to shut her down#give me an abigail who left on the walrus#an abigail who had to learn to carve out a place in a world outside of civilisation because she couldn’t live inside it anymore#give me an abigail who makes a life in nassau and is friends with max and idelle and silver and maybe she looks at the walrus’ books#since dufresne is gone now and her education will have been far beyond any of the men’s educations#give me an abigail who meets woodes rogers and can’t think of anything other than her father and the sham of civilisation#an abigail who joins the underground#an abigail who’s story gets to be told all the way to the end#not just until it stops being relevant to flint#because she deserves so much more than that#ABIGAIL ASHE!!!#*heart eyes* via @alkyones

But you will not see that.
#sobbing #because though aragorn was the divinely-chosen king descendent from the line of kings #boromir was the one who had grown to manhood among his people; grown up defending and loving them #to him they were not just a faceless mass waiting to be led #or helpless children in the face of the power of the east #they were the warriors that fought beside him and the women that sold their goods in the market and his brother and his father #the houses of healing and the white tree #everything boromir was or ever hoped to be was inextricably bound to gondor; to minas tirith #and here was this elf-raised numenorean who not only was rightful heir to the throne boromir thought defunct #but did not even have the decency to respect and care for the people he would be ruling from it #of course boromir is angry #of course he tries to make aragorn see #boromir you are my favorite until the end of time #the fleeting voice of falliable humanity amid a narrative of gods and heroes#humanity that loves and humanity that falls #ack (via notbecauseofvictories)
The problem with being a writer is that you have to be your characters.
You can’t write a charming character by saying they’re charming, you actually need to be charming and write them charming dialog. You can’t just state somebody is smart, you need to write smart things for them to say and do.
Alfred came to you, didn’t he? Asked you to betray Thomas in exchange for which he’d see you made a king in the New World.

Writing fanfiction: a story
Getting the idea
I Get writer’s block ten words in.
Push through it
Some More
Finish it, looks at the chapter
Delete the awful chapter
But now I don’t have a plan B
Sit down and re-think my life
I need to get this done!
It’s done!
But now I have to read through it to find mistakes (aka look at it again).
It’s filled with typos and awful sentences.
It’s finished, It’s finished, I can’t keep fiddling!
Talking myself into posting it.
And then obsessively tracking every hit, comment or kudos.
truth!!

I really hate the idea that getting upset or getting emotionally absorbed or involved in things in general is a bad thing and that it’s cooler to put yourself above emotions and to make fun of people who are emotional. not to sound cheesy but caring about things is cool and good
