Black Sails Musical Parallels | XV. XVII. XXI.
I spent a year rewatching Black Sails and tracking all the bits of music that repeated at any point during the show, and my findings are reinforcing that Bear McCreary is a genius and this show should have been called 'parallels that will kill you over and over again'* (tag | chronological)

Il n'en faut pas moins de trois tomes pour relater toutes les étapes de la descente aux enfers d'Hakim et son calvaire à travers neuf pays. Le contraste entre la simplicité du trait et la brutalité de l'histoire confère à ce récit une émotion particulièrement intense. Découvrir

So, once again, he is able to conjure the reality he desires just as it was in Charlestown.
And just as it was in that storm.

We are subject to it.
And right now his state of mind's so dark, it threatens to kill us all.
Billy:
Take your rations.
I mean it.
Silver:
I'm clearheaded, Billy.
I see him.
Finally a song celebrating the shrimp-sized guy who was rejected by the army, showed up anyway, deserted on purpose to be sent to the frontline, and once there did all kinds of unbelievable shit, holding a trench alone, saving his officers, taking over a thousand prisoners by himself during the war, and ending the war still a simple soldier.
And then went back home to mend roads and be a fireman.
