As Above, So Below

the curse of local theatre is that a show can change you forever and there is no recording of it anywhere at all and after a few years all you have are scattered memories and the knowledge that you were different before.

I hate Rogers but I love the fact that Black Sails is the type of show that gives him a ship called the Eurydice and then has him cause the death of his own wife by going back to her. Rogers never fully trusted Eleanor, and I don't mean he thought she was lying: he could never recognize when she was right and he needed to capitulate. If Eleanor had said "don't turn around and we can make it out of the underworld" Rogers would have been convinced he knew better, and that's why she died.

i think sore morel being told his fav special daughter thinks he killed her is going to heal him and make him normal and nothing bad will happen #joy #happiness #hiswarhasended(withjoy)

[actively bleeding out] hold on *coughs* there's a Mountain Goats song about this..... give me my phone. let me just play it for you real *cough* quick

“your friend is dead, and their corpse is inhabited by something only you can see for what it truly is" is already good horror. but "you begin to love the thing that wears their face"? the blasphemy of it. terror turning into desire. grief turning into longing. being enticed by what should repel you. it twists the knife deeper, because the horror is not based on deception anymore. the fear comes from recognizing the monster in its raw form and finding beauty there. you're not clinging to scraps of your friend, you're surrendering to something other, something wrong, and loving it. you're not holding onto a ghost of the past, it’s the monster itself that you choose

finale theory number 1 million Maybe silver did all that because he straight up thought flint couldn't be killed

i letter on her juniper til she tells me i will die alone and i’ll die watching my blood seep over goldenrod and bluestem clutching the broken bones in my throat

Really love that Stephen has the mental capacity for one (1) Naval Fact, and it is the definition of a sloop, because this was absolutely the most important thing to every Sophie, back when he was getting started. And now his Naval Fact is the definition of a sloop, upon which he is completely confident and can become incredibly defensive, and all other information is liable to be lost as dust in the wind.
