In the darkness, there be dragons. But it isn't true. We can prove that it isn't true. In the dark, there is discovery, there is possibility, there is freedom in the dark once someone has illuminated it. And who has been so close to doing it as we are right now?

(some* of the) love in Black Sails. For @illuminated-in-darkness

I do not believe in the institution of marriage, I never want kids, and I'm only showing up for the queers, but

I SWEAR TO GOD!

I need them to be together so badly that I'm not even ashamed of how hard I'm rooting for the heterosexuals in a queer love story.

Like good for Mork and Day and their cute little color-coded love story, but I'm here for these future parents taking pictures and videos of their kids.

MARRY YOUR FUTURE WIFE AND THE MOTHER OF YOUR CHILDREN, NIGHT!

RIGHT NOW!

They are gonna make such good parents.

Thanks, Last Twilight, for giving the straights their proper love story.

I'm blaming this on my bisexuality.

Thailand, you better legalize marriage equality so all my couples can thrive and Mork can take care of his HUSBAND properly, goddamnit.

Also yelling bc in treasure island it says that flint drank himself to death in Savannah except the entire ending of black sails emphasizes stories and how you can never know what is true or what is untrue even if you were there to see it and so we as viewers only know what we are told--we never see silver kill flint, we never know if he retired, we dont know where he went, we learn about flint reuniting with thomas through a story silver tells, we learn that he drank himself to death because the words on a page tell us so and in the end you cant even find comfort in the ending treasure island gives flint because there is perhaps one man that knows the truth of it all except the truth has been warped and marred by time until it is completely unrecognizable even to himself and we're left with the ghosts of stories that are littered with truths but filled to the brim with lies and uncertainty and so maybe flint still haunts skeleton island or maybe flint haunts the sea or maybe flint haunts Savannah or maybe flint haunts silver or maybe the reality of it is that flint haunts everything because no matter which story you chose to believe and take as the truth they're all stories and in each and every one of them flint is a man that met his end by the hand of john silver

I was going to say… that perhaps you're more concerned with whether or not people talk about what you and I may be doing behind closed doors… than with what we actually are doing.

A guide through Toby Stephens’ filmography for Percy Jackson fans.

If you’ve only just discovered Toby as Poseidon and want more than 10 minutes of that face, here’s where to start!

If you’d be into Poseidon trying to make up for his absence and trying to win Sally and Percy back while fighting to survive in outer space, look no further! Watch Lost In Space on Netflix! It’s full of adventure, family, a but of angst and lots of DAD!

If you’d be more into Poseidon going full Odysseus on Zeus for taking everything from him and then calling him a monster while Medusa takes revenge, do yourself a favor and watch Black Sails! Peak TV. Queer af. Made by Jon Steinberg. [Trigger warnings]

If Sally and Poseidon pining is your thing and you love your Charlotte Brontë, watch the 2006 Jane Eyre with #RuthWilson and #TobyStephens! So much romance, angst and mutual eyefucking… warning: You WILL fall in love with a douchebag! Sorry for that!

Shakespeare Poseidon anyone? A very young and extremely pretty Toby Stephens as Duke Orsino in Twelfth Night. Lots of pining, genderfluidity, confusion and sparks. SPARKS! And a bathtub that will rewire your brain. Something something LGBT will definitely happen to you!

Finally if you love something face paced and modern with great teenage heroes, give Alex Rider on Prime a watch! Toby Stephens is a brilliant villain in S2 with loads of Elon Musk vibes. Poseidon the media mogul asshole? Maybe.

Other highly recommended things from Toby Stephens’ backlist: Cambridge Spies, Photographing Fairies, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, Mangal Pandey and Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None.

Anyway idk if anyone else has said it but the reason the Umbrellas had such a different outcome compared to the Sparrows is because Reggie gave up on them the minute he realised he couldn’t control Viktor. He needed seven to complete his plan. The Umbrella Academy was already a failure before it had even really begun.

"Sail the night my way on southerly winds, a warm breeze brings you to your knees as our softest fantasies are consumed in sin.."

"Under the moon, I am consumed with your flesh.. every kiss mixed with sin as your taste drips from my lips to your neck. Every soft breath could never be a subtle reminder, as each thought of you explodes in my mind.. I am here, wanting more, to make you mine."

I just wanna be with you, all my fantasies are with you, under the moon, I am so consumed with you - eUë

I came to make a funny post about how Captain Hook mentions Flint by name not one but twice in the Peter Pan novels but in researching this I came across a historical footnote claiming that Flint was based on a real person, citing a passage in the biography “Life of the English Thieves and Pirates” by MC Whitehead. The problem being, that neither “Life of the English Thieves and Pirates” or MC Whitehead actually exist, and the only evidence of them whatsoever is in footnotes about Flint specifically. It’s a fictional footnote claiming a fictional person is a real person and cited in real documents about the real history behind fictional works of literature. Very True-Untrue energy 10/10 great work everyone
