This ends when I grant them my forgiveness…

James/Thomas Appreciation Week: 

Ten years later and he’s still holding himself like a military man (∪ ◡ ∪)

[Where are you?] Earlier I told you that I was certain that the pardons would eliminate all resistance in Nassau and you asked me how I was so certain. It’s because I helped build them. Peter Ashe, Miranda, her husband, and I, we worked to obtain a universal pardon and introduce it to Nassau to eliminate piracy and restore colonial rule there. I moved away from those things. Inch by inch, I forgot it all. And now, in this cage, in the belly of this thing that has swallowed us whole… I wonder… if the civilization of Nassau isn’t exactly what I tried to achieve all those years ago. If resisting it doesn’t set me in opposition to everything I once understood to be good and right. To forgive. To make order of chaos. I wonder if the pardons are the victory and that the most enlightened thing that I can do is sit still. Accept what appears to be inevitable, and let this be the end of Captain Flint.

oh look you can pinpoint the exact moment they both realize that peter is responsible for all their suffering and that their plan probably isn’t going to work i hate this show

Something that really got to me was that Miranda already knew from when she first heard the clock, at least deep down, she just didn’t want to ask the question because she wanted the plan to work. She wanted James to have his dream (and it does seem to be more his than hers) succeed. When she asked him if he could leave Flint behind she was deciding whether or not to say anything, and she nearly didn’t, but then she couldn’t risk him being betrayed any further. :(((((

I want to see this whole goddamn city, this city that you purchased with our misery, burn. I want to see you hanged on the very gallows you’ve used to hang men for crimes far slighter than this. I want to see that noose around your neck and I want to pull the fucking lever with my own two hands!

i’m not crying you’re crying
