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

He’s so deeply insecure, through all the show. But from the moment the leg is gone, he sees himself as less.

#John Silver#tangled mess of hair and insecurity

#this was one of the things that always struck me deeply about Silver#and my meta always touched on it#his insecurity and lack of self-esteem#and the decisions low self-esteem vs high self-preservation led him to#oh the struggle#its why I’ll never forget his character

#he’s so much#so brave and strong#he survived so much#went through so much#but he doesn’t see himself for what he truly is#he only sees that somethings missing#but he doesn’t see what all he gained#and what he is#such a complex character#such a development

“[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
