hiiiiii dante feel free to ignore me i am. watching black sails. as i do. and i was thinking about that initial ask you sent me about silver and marc and YES i did immediately derail it to make vale and silver comparisons BUT i think you were very much onto something in terms of how silver conceptualizes himself post-amputation. it reminds me of our crazy little hot girl's myriad complexes about his arm in some ways....

orig ask. laughing that this was my first ask to you i think... of course it would be black sails that would make me come out of my shell.. anyway. twirls hair HIII yes. YEAH. so within the context of black sails flint and silver are inextricably linked different sides of the same coin which is the same for valentino and marc right so i loved where u initially went with that ask.. cuz theyre both Both in different ways.. and like. i was conceptualizing vale as flint bc of how hes positioned narratively as well as how hes thought of by other characters - as a god. as the one who will betray anyone. who only cares about himself. gay and sinister with an evil buzzcut. and so on. and then marc as silver EXACTLY!!!!!!! bc of the disability of it all the losing his leg. what are marcs pre surgery adventures if not silver being surrounded by his crew and being told theyll still love him and support him even without the leg. marc being the one to usurp vale... like. you cant do 1:1 silver:marc obviously but thats not the point of any AU ANYWAY i digress. callie give me more thoughts anytime its been a while since ive been in the thick of thinking about black sails so im out of practice talking about it. i also think this quote is sooo vale. jack rackham did you know valentino rossi ?
