#idk whether to tag this as b lack s ails

[illuminated-in-darkness]

@starbuck - Kathie thank you so much for this lovely tag to shuffle my music to come up with my rom com soundtrack!! :))

1. His Kiss, The Riot - Hadestown (Original Broadway Cast Recording, Patrick Page)

2. I Will Follow You Into The Dark - Death Cab for Cutie

3. Happiness Will Ruin This Place - San Fermin

4. I’m Not That Girl - Wicked (Idina Menzel)

5. Delicate - Taylor Swift

Listen I know I already make everything about Black Sails, and this is definitely not a rom com but...

His Kiss, The Riot is the flinthamilton kiss that sets everything in motion against civilisation/system/etc.

I Will Follow You Into The Dark can be James following Thomas and Miranda and/or Silver following Flint

Happiness Will Ruin This Place could be about the flinthamiltons’ happiness - as Miranda says in VI, “a happy life can often be a very dangerous thing. Something that other people simply cannot abide.” || It also has the lyric “said all that I ever want / to be two places at once / either way you lose” and could be Silver about Flint and Madi??? or more generally about wanting to support Flint and Madi but also having the instinct for the survival of himself and those he loves?

I’m Not That Girl is Flint about silvermadi leading him to give himself up as collateral to Eleanor in XXXII and/or Silver about flinthamilton leading him to take Flint to Savannah

Delicate is all of the post-canon healing and reunions and eventual madisilverflintham OT4 my beloved
