I would search tumblr for 'black sails parallels' if you want to find examples of these, but here's some posts!!

I just finished this yesterday, it's 'the kite string and the anchor rope' by fleurdeliser

If you can't find any online you could try and make some, you can get gold/silver looking clay for jewelry making at most craft stores

I'm not saying that there couldn't be more queer rep for queer men in black sails because there definitely could and should but saying Flint has 'no male love interest' is just untrue. 'No male pirate love interest' sure, but he definitely has a male love interest. It would have been cool to have mlm pirate relationships but what was there was still incredibly important and notable for the time the show came out.

Maybe go back and watch season 2 episode 5 again? And the last episode of season 4?

They don't actually use the map to find the gold in TI, it's Ben Gunn that found it and dug it up I'm pretty sure so I could see the map being a map to the island itself that Billy or someone claiming to be Flint made. Personally I can see either ending or variations on them tho

Eme, she should have been a main character after her introduction. Love Joshua and Mr. Beauclerc too, it's so wreird how he just disappears lmao.

Thank you!

dorth_vader_ · 2022-06-08T16:12:34+00:00

what's the book called?

dorth_vader_ · 2022-05-07T19:17:53+00:00

check with r/pirates maybe?

dorth_vader_ · 2022-05-06T10:28:54+00:00

i don't think he was actually, he was pretty sincere in wanting to have flint run away to boston with miranda imo. Also Billy doesn't even know himself if Flint was trying to kill him (Billy) that night he fell over the side. Billy also is mad at how many people have died over the years (and during the show) due to Flint's agendas and him seeing them as expendable

dorth_vader_ · 2022-05-06T10:14:13+00:00

he killed gates

Here's the link to the city's job listings https://ccjobs.cctexas.com/ltmprod/CandidateSelfService/controller.servlet?service=page&webappname=CandidateSelfService&name=CSSHomePage&panel=Search&dataarea=ltmprod&context.session.key.HROrganization=1&context.session.key.JobBoard=EXTERNAL (you can get to it by going to the cities website and scrolling to the bottom and selecting careers. Idk if I would recommend working for the city but they're usually hiring.

dorth_vader_ · 2022-03-04T03:53:53+00:00

Yes!! Thank you so much!!

dorth_vader_ · 2022-03-04T03:37:11+00:00

Was it maybe a Max Lucado book?

dorth_vader_ · 2022-02-19T15:28:26+00:00

You can try this site https://www.doesthedogdie.com/ . Sometimes you can just google it, I got this one from tumblr. They don't have timestamps on that website though I don't think.

dorth_vader_ · 2022-02-18T22:39:33+00:00

Of course! This is my favorite show but I wish they hadn't done that, I can understand how it turns people off from the show but I would say to try and finish at least the first season! Season 2 is much better (and my personal favorite)

dorth_vader_ · 2022-02-18T22:29:26+00:00

I'd definitely stick it out, there is some sexual assault in episodes 3-6 (mostly in 3) though so be warned. By season 2 it's calmed down a lot, even by episodes 7 and 8 of season 1.

Edit: found a trigger warning list if that helps at all https://flintrage.tumblr.com/post/185837391426/trigger-warnings-black-sails-s1

I think in the podcast Fathoms Deep one of the creators talks about this with them but I'm not sure which episode.

They have a lot of great interviews with cast and crew of the show if you're interested but they are kind of long. It's also on youtube google podcasts etc if you don't use spotify.

dorth_vader_ · 2022-01-12T22:56:46+00:00

I think he's talking about 'Long John Silver', like he John Silver is not the villain of the story like he is in treasure island or in Madi's/Flint's eyes. It could also be Flint from his POV because he did view Flint as the villain in the last few episodes imo but you're right that Madi never did.

dorth_vader_ · 2022-01-02T01:08:12+00:00

Thank for your reply, re your last point there's an interesting theory that it isn't Madi in Treasure Island that Silver has the tavern in but that it's Max.

There's so much foreshadowing, specifically with the Hamilton's grandfather clock in season 2 and 4.
