FLINT:

How I feel about this character

Literally ICONIC!!! truly thee best character ever, not really my favorite character ever, but what is a fact is a fact: he is the best.

I didn’t really like him when i first started the show but oh boy if that changed, by the time i got to the half of s2 i was already like ‘if anything happens to him i AM committing murder’.

oh let me fangirl here for a minute (tho let me fangirl about black sails in general) EVERYTHING HE SAYS!!! SO ICONIC!! he hasn’t missed in a single thing ever. I get CHILLS whenever he opens his mouth and talks. Up to this day (keep in mind i watched black sails when it aired) my brain still repeats constantly epic quotes he said. “everyone is a monster to someone, since you are son convince that i’m yours i will be it”, “they took everything from us and then they called me a monster...”, “they paint the world full of shadows and then tell their children to stay close to the light, their light, their reasons, their judgments...” BRAIN GOES BRRRR (yes, i can quote black sails because i’m that type of insane)

okay, enough, i’m normal

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Obviously Thomas, they’re cute and little thing in shows have ever made me as happy as seeing them end together kdsjdsk brain goes brrr again, really black sails is the only show ever

but truly my ship for flint is silver. I don’t know i do have a soft spot for kinda enemies to very close friends to lovers. i really think they were the love story of the show, even if they were always meant to end up badly. they’re epic and sad and funny and complicated and absolutely mesmerizing. Literally watch my silverflint video, it’s about the repression and the things you cannot bring yourself to say, and knowing another person as your own self...

My non-romantic OTP for this character

A few really. I like his relationship with miranda, i know some people ship them but for me flint is gay and yes, he loves her, but not like that. they had a really interesting dynamic and i personally love her a lot, so i will always be very sad that she died, but again, it’s black sails, i really think it’s the only show with which i don’t actually get mad about the deaths cause they make sense.

I also like him with eleanor, i love how they care deeply about each other and respect each other in ways no other character does. flint really sees her as an equal and that was one of the first things that i liked about the show.

And of course his friendship with madi is EXTREMLY important for me. They truly have such an amazing dynamic. I could watch hours of them just conspiring together. That scene in s4 in which they have gotten silver back and have taken nassau back too and the three of them are talking about what to do with billy and silver says something and mady and flint look at each other: !!!!! brain goes brrrrr, ‘case they’re friends!! they respect and trust each other!!! And of course the ending when they’re both on the ship and see that the other is okay and they smile!!!! and how she leaves silver’s ass for what he did to flint: EPIC!! you go girl, so true!!!

My unpopular opinion about this character

I don’t know if i have unpopular opinions.... he’s the best and he did nothing wrong, and i think that’s a pretty common opinion.

Maybe that he’s gay?? i know some people read him as bi and i think it’s okay and valid but literally to me he’s gay and miranda is comphet.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I wanted him to be friends with max. I mean i get why it couldn’t really happen, but they would have been EPIC. if they had sat down and talk for a few minutes im sure they would have fixed everything with their big gay brains and become besties, but sadly things are not always what we want to.

And of course i think he should have kissed silver but it’s okay.

ROWENA (my love):

i really want to just say that everything roublardise said in this post, cause really THEIR BRAIN, but let me highlight a few personal things

How I feel about this character

I LOVE ROWENA SO MUCH!!! one of the best things supernatural ever did. Watching seasons without her now is difficult. She’s funny, smart, cute, a girlboss, interesting... literally not once has she let me down. Also her dynamic with crowley is the most fun thing they ever did, what a galaxy brain moment really.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

MARY!!! i feel like i started this thing myself and truly one of the best ideas i have had. I feel like it can be such an epic and soft love story, i really can’t get enough of them, i wish more people would be on board ‘cause i need content!! I’m not going to get now into all the reasons why they’re perfect cause this is too long already and i have made posts about this in the past, but they really are the underrated dynamic.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

I love her with crowley, obviously she’s an awful mother but they are extremely funny and it adds such an interesting twist to both characters. We should have had more of them.

With tfw of course, she’s part of the family and it makes me soft 🥺

My unpopular opinion about this character

My unpopular opinion is that i don’t ship her with sam. i really don’t see it

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.
