#can u imagine silver staying up all night#battling with himself bc flint trusted him with the most intimate parts of his past#and yet he couldn’t give back in equal measure#poor thing was so stressed out he couldnt let go even though flint did bc he didnt press the issue again#even though he still couldnt give him anything worthwhile he just had to make sure flint didnt resent him for it#and flint didnt. despite his nature and need to fully understand the person he relies on he let go of the issue completely#[laughs hysterically]#tell me thats not love i dare u @captain-flint

Q: What do you think was going through Flint’s mind when Madi & Silver reunited in 4×3? Your face expresses so much. 

Toby Stephens: A bittersweet happiness for Silver, mixed [with] a sense of his own isolation.

#HE GOT THAT#I STILL CANT BELIEVE THEY GAVE HIM THAT#i cant believe that showing his face in that scene was a hint for what’s to come#and i cant believe how much these ppl love each other#flint rushing to save silver and bringing him back to madi#silver instantly sending a man to savannah to find thomas and bringing him back to flint#everyone just wants everyone to be happy#(im ignoring any ulterior motives in this okay)#THEY ALL LOVE EACH OTHER

(mahlikes: and he finally got to kiss Thomas in full daylight in front of everyone)

#silverflint#captain flint#blacksailsedit#james flint#my stuff#i honestly cried the whole time i was making this#he loved silver so much#he trusted him SO MUCH#even after silver turned against him he STILL believed in him#in their friendship#in silver’s trust in him#for someone like flint this is huge. unbelievable.#it wasnt even about silver’s influence anymore he just.. wanted silver to be there#to share the experience and the spoils of that war with him#because he thought him the best person to lead them when it’s over#just like he once believed the same about thomas#[cries harder] he was wholly and unshakably committed to both the cause and silver that simply nothing and no one could’ve swayed him#except for the very thing that was the foundation of the cause and his relationship with silver – thomas hamilton#GODD#i love him#i love how much he loves

#HOOOOOO BOY#I LITERALLY CANT#I LITERALLY CANNOT DO THIS GUYS#HE TRUSTED HIM SO MUCH#HE TRUSTED HIM WITH HIS ENTIRE BEING#EVEN AFTER SILVER TRIED TO KILL HIM HE STILL TRUSTED HIM#HIS LOVE FOR HIM KNOWS NO BOUNDS#SILVER COULD LEGIT STAB HIM AND JAMES WOULD BE LIKE#‘ITS OK’#‘I KNOW YOURE ANGRY’#‘I FORGIVE YOU’#’I LOVE YOU JOHN SILVER AND I ALWAYS WILL’ (tags via @ohflint)

You will. Someday, you will.

#can we talk about the fact that silver will one day find himself (if he hasn’t already)#hurting and missing just as he did when he lost madi#he will find he’s missing one last vital piece of his soul that holds him together.. one that stood right next to madi#of course flint was right OF COURSE he knew john better than anyone and even when he’s gone he still dictates silver’s future#silver’s life won’t be enough and he’ll dive right back into the past to search for meaning#because he won’t be able to stand it being for nothing#he won’t be able to stand flint’s memory being for nothing. he will never be at peace knowing flint is buried and gone#so he’ll go on one last foolish adventure to reunite with the ghosts of his past and maybe this time he’ll win

the top left is literally the same conversation James and Miranda had when he was convincing her to go to Nassau instead of the continent when they fled London. #sometimes i feel terrible that bittersweetness of this ending is giving me all the life in the world#but it really is#I CANNOT#James Flint your fucking face is amazing#i have whole essays in my heart about the way that Flint loves people#with the whole of himself#and i’m genuinely not sure if he draws much of a distinction between friend and lover#at least in the ways that he will burn down the whole world for those people#probably this is why he doesn’t let himself do it very often#so really#other than the poor impulse control and murderous tendencies#he really does fit in the same general category of My Guy#james flint: death metal remix of an honorable stoic#john silver: trickster upholding the status quo#who fucking knew

“[Flint and Silver’s] was a complicated relationship with a lot going on under the surface. Starz gave us the freedom to allow some of these relationships to exist without specific labels and to embrace that people don’t always say what they’re feeling and exist in the space that people don’t even know about themselves.” [x]

I think Flint knew, but Silver? No way. He barely knew that he loved Madi and she was a beautiful, brilliant princess, there’s no way he knew he loved Flint. You can explain it as internalized homophobia, trauma related to male figures in his past, or simply not wanting to process that he loved this terrible hurricane of a man known as Flint…but he did love him.

OP tags: #ugh the scenes keep getting brighter#until it finally hits him/he can’t hide it any longer
