They’re a beautiful and complex wlw ship. I love them! :)

I do have…some issues with their execution. Mainly that I feel like a lot of their dynamic was about Max supporting Anne and there wasn’t much of that in the reverse. I feel like the writers didn’t treat them entirely equal all of the time, which is problematic when you remember that Anne is a white woman and Max a black ex slave. I mean, Anne got to be mad at Max for almost a whole season for her S3 betrayal but Max wasn’t even allowed to be initially mistrustful of Anne after she played an indirect part in leading to her being raped by Vane’s men? Meh. I know Anne (and Eleanor) were also the ones that ended up saving Max from that situation but Anne played a part in why it happened in the first place, and I feel like that was kind of brushed over.

I also prefer Maxanor by a smidge and kind of wish that had been endgame tbh.

Regardless of all of that, I do find Maxanne to be a really great romance and I love that they both helped each other grow as people. Max’s arc would not have played out the way it did without Anne’s influence and falling in love with Max was what helped Anne begin the journey of truly finding herself. They (and Black Sails in general) deserve more hype! I also wish they had gotten a more solidly confirmed endgame.

Thanks!

why are you like this 

round the twist

OMG okay this is actually hard to say. when i first started watching, i don’t know if i shipped them too much because i liked them a lot as friends. but then... @itmeansdove decided to come back to tumblr and made me rewatch and then i fell into the rabbit hole that i am currently in. the first scene i made gifs for mpi of was the first tie scene which i think is one of the first like “HMMMM maybe”. so possibly that? during my initial rewatch though i am unsure what sucked me in. oh well i’m here now and i’m dying. FUN!!!!!!!!!
