True love shouldn’t require suffering.
And you don’t have to take my word for it.

#miranda hamilton #is a constant emotion#god i love how consistent she is in her beliefs#that she rejects the idea that the purest form of love is suffering#that the joys of the body and the material world are no less godly for being material#just look at her face when she’s reciting#she’s somewhere else entirely while she’s doing that#where are you miranda my love#i genuinely don’t even think she’s set out to seduce pastor lambrick#it just sort of happens as a result of the way she inhabits the world#alllllllso she 100000000% seduced some lady with this#come on we all know it’s true #bi miranda hamilton 2kINFINITY#i also just really love the ways she and james are alike in this#the way they inhabit their bodies and the world contrasted against the way they can get lost in their heads#i love her your honor#also lbr miranda is also one million percent the person who would cheerfully start scripture fights with bigots#t.ham would eviscerate people by dismantling their logic on fallacies and whatnot#james doesn’t give a fuck he’ll just punch or ignore the asshole#but miranda would be implacable about meeting them on their terms#and then making that battlefield her own #ANYWAY I LOVE HER IS THE POINT (tags by @sidewaystime)

The ship which was attacked was named the Maria Aleyne. The ship was set upon by Captain Flint and his men. And in the midst of the bloody assault, there was one particular victim, a very important man traveling under an assumed name. His name was Alfred Hamilton.

Given the lengths to which this man had gone to protect himself, the fact that he fell under Captain Flint’s sword… suggested he’d been hunted, pursued, and then executed in cold blood and with great malice aforethought. The motive unclear, but the intent apparently dark and awful, monstrous. [My father] said the act was completely incompatible with civilized society.
