You’re an educated man, my lord, but I think it worth reminding you that in most cases
                          a man trying to change the world fail for one simple and unavoidable reason…
                                                                                                                                            everyone else.

It isn’t as much fun to tell stories about how your captain makes a home with a nice Puritan woman who shares his love of books.

 #captain flint  #billy bones  #black sails  #blacksailsedit #my stuff  #iconic #i can imagine james and miranda just bursting into tears with laughter when he tells her  #just keeling over gasping for air
    #she thought the london scrutiny was ridiculous but this is a whole new level of hilarious
    #i love how billy is like “is that the truth?” no billy he’s clearly a blood covered demon  #wait..

James Flint in every episode:
XXIII.  You have hidden in this place for a lifetime, hidden from the harsh realities
that lie beyond this veil that you have constructed here,
but the moment that that shot entered his belly, that veil began to unravel,
and sooner or later, you are going to have to confront these realities,
chief among them being that England takes whatever, whenever, however it wants.
Lives. Loves. Labor. Spirits. Homes. It has taken them from me.
I imagine that it has taken it from you. And when that veil drops altogether,
they will come for more.

I am suggesting that we help each other start taking things back,
and it starts with Nassau. You cannot stay here.
This camp’s secrecy is its virtue, but that secrecy is going.
Nassau is defendable. Nassau can supply itself.
Is that not exactly the sort of place that could replace this?
A place that you could settle? Woodes Rogers has an inoperative fort,
responsibility for an administrative nightmare
that isn’t going away just because he wants it to,
and an island full of hunters that may be placated for now,
but could be awoken. That I could awaken.
They pledged to follow me when they thought I was alive.
They turned when they thought I was gone. So I will come back from the dead
and lay claim to what I am owed.
