i'm providing context. which is that the person i'm talking to wants to watch it with me. i am not the one suggesting this course of action. but i am worried it is simply not the vibe.

#black sails#this unfortunately is not a hypothetical and is a real problem from real life#person i'm talking to wants to watch it with me but i simply feel we should do maybe anything else first#i do fear i am the embodiment of the 'put your clothes back on' meme#i will pause the show to explain things#poll

i genuinely think boats are such good places to set a story because it automatically gives you a set of really interesting circumstances -- boats are transitory, you are not meant to stay on them forever, there is an automatic assumption of ending up somewhere different from where you started...characters are forced into close proximity, stakes are higher, etc. boats also just look cool, so that's always a plus
