One specific NPC portrait from Rogue Trader made me think of Black Sails again so I knew who I'd be painting next for my warmup...

If I’m not what I was when I was born, and I ain’t what I’ve become instead…

Anne Bonny, Charles Vane, and gender. That’s it, that’s the post.

70. The Sins Of The Father (Black Sails)

Title: The Sins Of The Father Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/22027336 Platform: Archive Of Our Own Creator: techieturnover Work Type: Fanfiction Fandom: Black Sails Rating: Gen Pairing: Thomas Hamilton/James McGraw Word count: 2453 Warnings: None Number of comments: 3 Completion Status: Complete Short summary/description:

“-it is too profane, too loathsome, to be dismissed.”

Three years after his rise and fall in Nassau, two after he has Thomas back, one after they have escaped the plantation in Georgia and settled outside of Boston - so many after England has forgotten the name McGraw - Admiral Hennessey’s words still echo in James’ thoughts.

James Flint — Know No Shame

I was thinking of James’ journey, of overcoming his shame, his grief and his rage, and maybe in the end finding hope again, with Thomas’ love being his guiding light.

BLACK SAILS APPRECIATION WEEK day one → favorite episode [in/sp]

"It's an open question how much of this story Avery invented." —Flint, S4E8

For BLACK SAILS APPRECIATION WEEK 2025: Favourite Character It's very hard for me to pick a favourite from this show, so how about another ghost in the narrative? He's been there through all the seasons, many characters mention him by name, and he appears to inspire some of their actions. Also it's unclear if he's dead or has escaped piracy, which is as Black Sails as it gets. The historical pirate: Henry Avery🏴‍☠️

tonight i am thinking about john silver as vampire, doomed to eternity, refusing to reckon with his past and unable to look himself in the eye because of what he has done and who he has been and also because he does not show up in mirrors. notoriously shitty cook because he can’t touch garlic.
