Summary:
Flint and Silver have been dancing around each other for months. Both doing their best to ignore the obvious tension between them, afraid of the ways in which giving into it would weaken them to each other.
But when Flint comes up with his most reckless plan yet, and Silver realizes it’s up to him to talk him out of it, that tension, that want, reaches a breaking point.
—
I’ve had this scene stuck in my head for absolute months, since I decided that early s3 was the earliest I could see Flint and Silver acting on their attraction from any sort of equal footing, and that the scene that makes up the first half of this fic was like, absolutely perfect for some dam-breaking emotions to just make it all happen at once. this is the result of that obsession.

me recommending black sails to people but not wanting them to think the show is gimmicky: technically it’s a prequel to treasure island, but that’s not important.
me, internally: black sails reinvented the concept of a prequel by slowly but surely leading up to a series finale that invests the original work with more depth and meaning than it actually deserves, and by calling into question things that are considered canon in treasure island. and you don’t even realize how closely the two texts are connected until deep into the fourth season, when it suddenly becomes clear–skeleton island looms out of the fog like an omen, tying the events of the show to a future that’s masterfully hinted at but never explicitly acknowledged.

Ao3 is actually massively culturally important and very very good at being what it is. I’m so serious when I say that ao3 needs to be protected as the anti censorship, by fans for fans, nonprofit, volunteer run, expertly designed archival site that it is. You don’t have to read or like fanfiction to understand that on principle, ao3 is a site that should be defended.

So disappointing when I unmute a video of animals and there’s stupid music when I hoped the animals might be going eep.

i know its been said over and over that trans people who experiment with names before picking one or who change their names shouldn’t be ashamed but ill even go and say. if you spend enough time with trans people you begin to realize how something like a name is just an extension of the person and if you really know them like KNOW them and not just catalogue them as a title in your brain then a name change isn’t really all that difficult. primarily my friends exist in my head as ‘someone i love’ and then names and pronouns are modifiers. also if you know your friends well enough is someone going from 'raven’ to 'victor’ really that surprising of a change to make come on now
I saw a post about this so now I’m curious
please consider reblogging for a larger sample size unless you’re planning to say something that’s anti-theistic
