LISTEN TO MY DULCET TONES, BOY

trying to explain to people that the cursed amulet and i have genuinely bonded. we are PALS now. "the fact you don't want to take it off is proof it's controlling you" i want to keep wearing it bc im enjoying hanging out with my buddy. not everything is nefarious. we're doing girl time

hey don't cry. on december 3, 1926, agatha christie went missing for eleven days and because the uk police didn't know what to do they recruited sir arthur conan doyle, creator of master detective sherlock holmes, but all he did was conduct a séance to try and contact her distressed spirit

adult life is truly just thinking “I NEED TO CLEAN” while dealing with the 17 other things that have a hard deadline

The fact he's an orange and after the foot came up it took him an absurdly long time to recalibrate

Joy and whimsy detected! This post is joyful and whimsical!

i love making friends in fandom, i love playing with our toys together, i love coming up with increasingly niche aus, i love lifting strangers up, i love motivating people to create, i love watching someone get excited over an idea and immediately running with it, i love yelling in tags together, i love seeing someone gain confidence in their writing/art because people were kind to them <33

“know no shame” is about Flint’s sexual orientation and love for Thomas, sure, but in the context of the 2.09 dialogue between him and Miranda… it’s also about him preaching about pirates not being the monsters civilization label them to be since season 1 episode 1, and then revealing to his closest partner/dead bf’s wife/mistress that every day he has worn the name he has chosen for himself as a pirate, he has been ashamed of it and horrified of who he was becoming, and has always secretely wished to come back to a quiet anonymous (far from shame, but also away from piracy) life that it is now possible only by coming back to civilization. (But civilization has labelled him a monster way before he was a pirate, trying to make him feel shame for who he was, and by the anger toward this rejection and shame forced upon him Captain Flint was born, this thing he is horrified and ashamed of NOW, and the only solution to end THIS shame he felt for himself and his violence is coming back to make a pact with the society that made him violent in the first place, so it’s a circle that will never ends.)
