Two times Flint gave up but Silver was having none of that crap

#flint lowkey (or not) wants to die but silver won’t let him#“stop interrupting my death silver”#“IF IM GONNA SUFFER THEN UR GONNA SUFFER WITH ME”#truly a beautiful relationship#no but honestly this fucked me up#both times flint embraced the “inevitable” death#except those weren’t certain deaths#he chose not to move from the cannon blast and he was conscious as he sank#and the second time he chose to challenge their captors knowing it would result in his death#he chose not to see a way out but silver showed it to him anyway#pulled him back from the ledge both times#i love that the 1st time silver did it it ws mostly for his own gain#he needed flint alive in order to survive what happened next#but the 2nd time was basically “i want you to live. for me. bc i dont like the idea of you dying”#he risked his life and the lives of the crew just so flint wouldn’t risk his own#how fucking gay is that#look how far they’ve come im so proud#if flint risks his life one more time im gonna kill him myself#STOP IT YOU SELF SACRIFICING OLD BEAN#LOVE YOURSELF PLS#PEOPLE LOVE YOU#SILVER LOVES YOU#I LOVE YOU YOU SHIT (tags @theheirsofdurin)

That’s the last one. According to the men who just landed, that is the last longboat. I heard the same. I’m told they saw an injured man pulled aboard from out of the water, almost drowned. I heard the same.

Here I must be careful. I have well over two hundred men unaccounted for. Those who remain, it would be very hard to explain to them why, with all I have to tend to, I choose to stand here… hanging onto the fate of just one of them.

That’d make a lot more sense if I didn’t need him just as badly as he needs me.
