So, you think that they see me as the villain in this particular story?
#I rewatched this ep today and listen…this scene is so good…#the way the music grows desperate and shaky and a bit dark at the end to mirror flint’s sudden panic#he went from entirely lighthearted and open to BARRICADES UP while his inner self raged like a storm#because no one (other than miranda) has ever noticed – let alone acknowledged – that he’s in pain like this#and suddenly this curly-haired little shit walks into his life and sees through every layer he’s constructed to create captain flint#and recognizes that flint lives a life of suffering#‘it must be awful being you’ sounds so rude omgdslfjasdlfkjds like…/SILVER/…u insensitive piece of poo…#(this is why it took u like a decade to make a single friend my kid…honestly)#but silver doesn’t actually mean to be rude when he says things like this; he really is just being honest#flint is a puzzle to him and he’s merely putting the pieces together out loud#and the thing is that even though it takes flint off guard and /terrifies/ him…he NEEDED someone to recognize this. recognize his pain.#and LOOK HOW FAR WE’VE COME SINCE THIS MOMENT#knowing that silver could see through to his core became a welcome thing#and by the season three finale flint was willingly handing over the things he’d kept locked up tight…without fear and without hesitation#literally the BIGGEST secret he had…the one with the potential to ruin him…the one that already had#and all silver has to do is ask ‘will you tell me?’ and flint just DOES#I’M DYING :o) (via candlewinds)
and added tags from the one i reblog from : #this scene is so crucial for our understanding of 3×10#silver has always come across as a rude little shit when he’s being honest#and i think flint has come to understand it and love it
A few hours ago, a launch arrived. Two of our men who were scouting the Urca gold were returning to the island against their instructions. You see, they had been told very clearly by Captain Flint to remain with the Urca until we arrived to help us prepare our assault on the Spanish beach. […] The two scouts reported to me what they had observed on the beach, what had driven them to leave their post ahead of schedule and return to Nassau with the utmost haste. That a tropical disease had befallen the Spanish camp. Dozens dead or dying. Many more suffering, weakened. Only a handful of men defending it, most barely even able to stand.
John Silver in every episode: XXI.
I stole it from you. The Urca gold.
I told you we were deceived about its having been recovered by the Spanish.
Wasn’t entirely true. You were deceived.
I built the lie… Enlisted the scouts,
arranged the sale of the information to Captain Rackham. I conceived it all. You know, I’ve had my fill of hearing you go on about this crew
being too weak to keep up with you.
Some of them may be weaker than you, some of them may be less smart, but don’t you for a second believe I fit that description.
Whatever happens out here, one thing is certain. You will account for me.
