a story is true. a story is untrue. a story is independent of ZF

Hennessy has to know who Flint is, right? Like, besides probably having heard the “Mr. Flint” story before, it wouldn’t have just gone unnoticed that four months after disowning and ostracizing your son (basically) in a scandal involving pirates in Nassau, the most feared pirate in Nassau in a generation suddenly comes into existence. I certainly hope he knows. I hope every time news came from the West Indies it kept him up at night - hearing the words profane and loathsome, and realizing that he was right about the rage James could be capable of when driven to it.

#ohhhh i hope he knew#i hope he knew IMMEDIATELY#i hope he connected the dots#james was SO devoted to the plan to bring nassau back into the english fold and i hope hennessy knew how equal and opposite#flint’s devotion was. to keep nassau free from the influence of england because FUCK england thats why#i hope he knows how badly he fucked up. if he didnt realise how much of an asset james was before i hope he realised retroactively.#that he realised how much of a threat an angered james mcgraw was and realised that maybe it would have been better to keep such a#powerful and driven and unyeildingly loyal man on their side instead of actively turning him against them#i hope he mourned. for the man james had been and the man that hennessy helped turn him into.#i hope every time news came of another act by the pirate james flint that hennessy remembered a 10 year old boy - bright eyed and quick#on the uptake and smarter and more charismatic than two thirds of the ruling class. a boy with loyalty written into his very bones.#i hope he remembered a young james mcgraw every time he heard the name captain flint.#& i hope he knows that he’s a significant part of the reason that that loyal and bright little boy became the most feared man on the ocean.

not every mutual fits neatly into an archetypal medievalism but there are some mutuals that im like yeah addressing you as “my liege” would come strangely naturally
