What actually happened in that conversation

I WILL DO   G R E A T   V I O L E N C E   AGAINST THAT THING.

when silver said to flint i'm the closest person to you in this entire world and everyone who has ever gotten as close to you has died because of it but i fear that this time it will be me who might cause your end. and then flint said i wouldn't be too concerned about that. and then the smiles. girl.

Unlikely Tactics Black Sails Musical Parallels | XVI. XXV. XXVI. XXVII. XXVIII. XXIX. XXXIII.

music variation note: it is the percussive rhythm in these scenes that is the same, rather than the melody. In XXVI it is faster than in the other scenes, while XXVII and XXXIII are slower. The melody in XVI and XXV is Vane Schemes The melody in XXVI and XXIX is Wary Anticipation

I spent a year rewatching Black Sails and tracking all the bits of music that repeated at any point during the show, and my findings are reinforcing that Bear McCreary is a genius and this show should have been called 'parallels that will kill you over and over again'* (tag | chronological)

i want every other freckle

i fucking love this show. black sails season three your hand in marriage

THEY ARE REALLY DOING THAT HUH. LITERALLY WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE SHOW THEY ARE oh my god. Billy Bones literally fucking writing the story of Long John Silver (I cannot express how much I love this are you JOKING) (also max how are you feeling about being a catalyst to the beginning of all this shit girl. how are you doing bestie). Silver having absolutely no idea, but his conversations with Flint hanging over the heads of the audience. Silver’s “stands to reason that I will be your doom” Flint’s, “I wouldn’t worry about it too much” (with a SMILE). Silver now is the only person alive (at least on camera) apart from Flint who knows about Flint and Thomas. Silver acknowledges how close they are, and condemns it (yo the look on Flint’s face when he starts on this. shrieks) as dangerous and he is sooo right. This episode made me go INSANE. Flint and Silver staring each other down across the water. SILVER BEING FUCKING DEIFIED AND ENDORSED AS A KING VIA STORYTELLING AND GOSSIP????? HI!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND I MEAN before ANY of that the fucking battle strategies??? mfw there’s an ambush and i got fucking bamboozled by the writers three times :3 <3 i love and fear not being able to predict how shit’s gonna go. season 4 is going to fucking KILL MEEEEE oh my god this is all going to end so badly.

A pattern is a pattern, and only a fool ignores one because he does not care for the implications. (...) My association with you began out of necessity, but I've come to find a great deal of respect for you. Perhaps even friendship. Which is why I find myself unnerved by the thought that when this pattern applies itself to you and I... that I will be the end of you.

BLACK SAILS (2014 - 2017) • 3.10 “XXVIII”

🏴‍☠️🦜🔱 BLACK SAILS EPISODE BRACKET : FINALE

🦜 THIS IS IT! THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED <3 SUMMARIES UNDER THE CUT:

[LEFT] XXVIII. (3.10) — As Flint buries the treasure, he is questioned by Silver about his true reasons for the war against the British and the tactics for the upcoming battle on the island. On the day of the attack, the British and Hornigold manage to take the beach with superior firepower, forcing Flint and his men to retreat. Meanwhile, Rackham and Anne unite with Blackbeard's fleet, who seeks revenge for the death of Charles Vane. In Nassau, Eleanor is confronted by an anonymous message, which demands the remains of Charles Vane as well as the gibbet be removed from the market square. Rogers recovers and reassures Eleanor of his support in overcoming her enemies. Silver sends Dobbs to the beach to kill Hornigold. In a later battle, Hornigold shoots Dobbs. Hornigold is eventually killed by Flint. In Nassau, a pardoned pirate captain is murdered by Billy, as there was no reaction to the message with the black spot. With the help of Anne and Rackham, Blackbeard's fleet manages to force the British fleet to retreat. In Nassau, Billy uses the name "Long John Silver" to create a claim of responsibility for the murder.

[RIGHT] XXXVIII. (4.10) — Jack and his crew arrive at Skeleton Island and attempt to rescue any survivors in the aftermath of Rogers' ambush of Flint and Silver's crew. Jack, Flint, and Silver sail behind Rogers and the Eurydice to engage them in one final battle. The Eurydice has been seized and Flint and Silver go back to Skeleton Island to retrieve the treasure. Jack returns to Philadelphia to talk to Marion Guthrie about her buying out Rogers' debts. Flint chooses to go to Savannah. Order, at least on the surface, is restored in Nassau.

Ground Shifting Black Sails Musical Parallels | X. XXVIII. XXXII. XXXIV. XXXV. XXXVIII.

music variation note: The music in XXXII is in a lower key than the first two scenes. XXXIV is in a higher key, and goes into a minor rather than major. The music in XXXV adds more strings and fuller chords as it repeats. XXXVIII is also in a lower key, and slightly different phrasing in the pauses between notes.

I spent a year rewatching Black Sails and tracking all the bits of music that repeated at any point during the show, and my findings are reinforcing that Bear McCreary is a genius and this show should have been called 'parallels that will kill you over and over again'* (tag | chronological)
