CARA ROBERTS as MARK READ || XXXVIII.
“A world we survived. A world that is no more.” I hear it ain't altogether over. I hear there are still men on the account here under the blessing of the governor. I hear he allows for it as long as it helps drive up prices for the merchants here. I hear he allows you to continue the practice. That's why I came.

HOZIER — In The Woods Somewhere
I never have seen men more dreadfully affected than the pirates. The colour went from their six faces like enchantment; some leaped to their feet, some clawed hold of others; “It’s Flint, by—!” “Come,” said Silver, struggling with his ashen lips to get the word out; “this won’t do.”

[image description: stills juxtaposing three scenes from Black Sails. the first two stills show Hennessey talking to a younger Flint, saying, "You are summarily discharged from service. No charges will be drawn against you provided you leave London quietly and are neither seen nor heard from again." the next two are of Gates saying to Flint, "You're gonna go to Boston. You're gonna take the pardon that she's offered you. And that is the last that you and I will ever see of each other." the final two stills show Flint entering the plantation at the end of the series, with narration that says, "Men who enter these gates never leave them. To the rest of the world, they simply cease to be." end id]

I am the one they come to here when they need things, want things, fear things. In another time and another place, they would call me a queen. I built this from nothing. And none of it is real.
JESSICA PARKER KENNEDY as MAX BLACK SAILS SEASON 3
#black sails#sidenote: im always slightly turning over in my head how she doesn't have a surname#i know why -- she wasn't given one#but she knew who her father was and it seems she consciously chose to not be associated with that name#instead choosing a lack-of family -- complete isolation from history. but that untethering (haha like a ship get i-)#is also a form of weakness within what we call Society. it makes you effectively No One#and that is what she wants -- specifically a No One who pulls the strings. but it's also a danger to be so disconnected#and it also speaks to the sadness of her narrative (although ofc in some ways she really does end up on top more than any other character)#(WHICH SHE DESERVES AFTER ALL THAT!)#this too is choosing to cut out the past in some way in order to control narrative -- just like silver and miranda and flint#black sails max

If we were able to take Nassau, if we are able to expose the illusion that England is not inevitable, if we are able to incite a revolt that spreads across the New World…then yeah, I imagine people are gonna notice.
#black sails#madi scott#james flint#the way i always think about her story in this#that is -- that her story feels barely begun#she feels like the protagonist of a story that this is all just a prequel of#(ironic considering she's only kinda-mentioned in the og treasure planet book)#but this -- all of this -- feels like it's HERS in some way i dont have the brainspace to be erudite about
