No, no, no… you've got it all wrong… you can't act death. The fact of it is nothing to do with seeing it happen - it's not gasps and blood and falling about - that isn't what makes it death. It's just a man failing to reappear, that's all - now you see him, now you don't that's the only thing that's real: here one minute and gone the next and never coming back - an exit, unobtrusive and unannounced, a disappearance gathering weight as it goes on, until, finally, it is heavy with death.

I made a few new wax seal stamps out of clay (like the ones I did for my worldbuilding stuff forever ago), this time just of random symbols that I thought might look good done in the style of painting over the raised part of the wax or etc. :0c Some of them aren't carved deep enough to really show up that well, but overall they worked okay for being clay lol
#wax seal#crafts#wax stamp#stationery#Window one is kind of stinky.. I was imagining like a swirly night sky sort of looking thing so it would be a surreal contrast of a night#sky with a window in the middle that shows a daytime sky - but the silver and purple wax kind of mixed too much together#with the black and it just looks very plain black and not all that starry or anything hjbhj.. Of course the eye is probably my favorite#since all I ever do is draw eyes and still like eye imagery for some reason. The four leaf clover is very lumpy and skrunkty but also it wa#the smallest in size out of all of them so was easier to do multiple stamps of just to try it out.#The heart with eyes wax is actually more swirly in person. I wanted it to be a mix of light pink and red and white. and the wax#did kind of all blend together but in person you can definitely see MORE of the intentional swirlyness. in this it just looks plain pink.#I was going to do one eye in the heart but it looked weird. but now two seems too plain. i could have done 3?? in a pattern.. hmm#alas. I wish I could make actual metal ones. With the clay i have to paint them in a thin layer of olive oil before stamping because#otherwise the wax just kind of gets stuck in the grooves of the clay and then you can't pull it up. Very wacky ''unprofessional'' looking#set up where I'm hot gluing circles of sculpey clay to short stumps of a wooden dowel that I sawed apart with a serrated bread knife#and then using an old paintbrush to put olive oil on them whilst holding a spoon over a yankee candle flame hjbjh#ANYWAY.. I think if I were middle class/rich/etc. this would be one of the main things in my crafting room is like.. SO many colors#of wax. and all different custom made stamps designed by me. which could be much more elaborate in actual metal.. muahaha.... >:)c#RHGghhh... I actually don't want to talk much about it since (this is probably just my Obsessed With My Own World Artist Delusions) I#think I have a really cool idea for a game that could genuinely be successful if i ever get to make it and I don't want to give#everything away and spoil the whole plot/concept in hopes that one day I can actually do it - BUT - a game that I'd like to make after the#visual novel I'm making now has partially to do with the main character working as a sort of writer/scribe/artist assistant in an elven#city (set in my world/with my worldbuilding species and versions of elves and etc) and I was thinking of maybe incorporating#somehow being able to collect little writing type items like these like.. you can get different wax seal patterns or pens or etc. when I do#stuff like this in Real Life it always makes me think of that like.. ouh... this is good research.. what it shall be like to be a littol#elf collecting wax seals and such.. indeed...

Going mad over Silver being told “The crew will look after you” in the final episode of season two as the crew’s surgeon is about to cut off his leg despite Silver’s repeated pleas that he doesn’t want him to, and part of it may be due to the unbearable pain he’s in, but I don’t think that’s all of it.
Randall died one episode ago. When Billy introduced Silver to him at the beginning of season one, he said that Randall had been injured while in service of this crew and that the crew owed it to him to take care of him despite his infirmity — because of his infirmity. As a disabled man, Randall has no future outside Flint’s crew in the harsh world they live in.
Silver knows this. As we approach the end of season two, he’s slowly becoming a true member of the crew, “I” becomes “we” and “the men” becomes “my men” or “my brothers,” but he can still walk away from them if he chooses to do so. By cutting off his leg, even with the best intentions in the world, the crew is tying him to them more securely than any contract or blood pact to these men and — for the time being — to Flint’s captaincy. His very ability to walk away from them is literally being limited, which we see in the beginning of season three as he struggles with his new wooden leg.
Silver has gained the infinite loyalty of these men at the price of his leg and maybe even of his independence — he can still leave them and try his luck elsewhere, he knows how to make himself useful, but no matter how charismatic he is, the first thing people will probably always see is his wooden leg. He has become Randall. Despite being in the throes of immense pain, I think Silver realized what he was about to lose. Even if a part of him had still been entertaining the possibility that this was just a temporary situation, from this point on, he has no choice but to serve these men to the best of his ability because now they’re in a symbiotic relationship.
It’s a very grim answer to the question his entire season two arc is asking: where does he belong? What is his place in the world? In the end, he who held most of the cards in his hands at one point is not being given a choice: he’s staying here, with this crew, echoing the question Flint asked him earlier in the season — where else in the world would you wake up and matter like this? It’s the only place left in the world where he can matter now. The infinite possibilities have collapsed down to one. The man who wanted everything, who could be anyone, is now forced into a single role and can only play it genuinely.
#there was no other outcome. either he became tied to them or he died#idk. maybe it’s a very grim way of interpreting this scene#i’d be curious to know what disabled fans thought of this scene and silver’s change of status from an able-bodied man to a disabled man#john silver#black sails

It’s been a while since I shared anything sorry guys! Have this messy sketch I kind of like
#art#digital art#illustration#wip#dnd#pathfinder#dungeons and dragons#fetchling#magus#luz#I’m still not sure I’m giving luz the red cape but it was a fun element to throw in this sketch#I’ve always loved the look of capes with bright inner linings so I’m looking for an excuse to design a character w one lol#I’m just not sure if red is the way to go with Luz#their entire outfit is black grey and silver so it would be a nice pop of color#but idk every time I try painting up a red the red just doesn’t look like it belongs#I like muting it to brown but who makes a two colored cape with just black and brown??#maybe I should make the inside silver#that could be cool#or to lighten their outfit the outside could be silver t and the inside could be black#but that’s def not practical for a character that uses the shadows to their advantage#imagine trying to sneak in the dark but your cape catches every speck of light like a beacon#ah well I’ll figure it out#if you’ve read all these tags feel free to leave tags with your own thoughts. or a comment too!

I've been thinking about comedy and tragedy in Black Sails. I've been thinking about Silver and Flint and mutability. The thing that stuck with me most from reading Shakespeare in high school English was this: my teacher told us that what separates a comedy from a tragedy is the characters' ability to change. Mutability allows characters to escape tragic narratives, to work differently inside of them.
Silver is a comic character—that's how he survives. He comes into the show with no history, and he believes so strongly in his detachment from the narrative that out of everyone, he is the most surprised by his sacrifice for his crew in season 2. He wields his mutability consciously, and it makes him unpredictable and amusing.
But Black Sails is Flint's story, Flint's tragedy, and Silver gets sucked into it. There's so much talk of inevitability in Black Sails—"this is not what I wanted" over and over again. We've known from the very beginning that Flint wants to walk away from the ocean and find peace. Leave "Flint" behind. I think that's one of the central questions of the show: can Flint change? Can he turn away from his darkness?
Season 2 revolves around that question, draws us into that conflict around Flint's image. How close did he come to setting "Flint" aside and being unmasked? But after Miranda's death, there's no turning back. The timing of Flint's final descent into his own darkness matches Silver's first signs of being tied to something correspond so exactly. Does Silver lose his mutability in this moment? I wonder if the loss of his leg takes that away from him, too. It connects him to a past, implies a lived history...
By seasons 3 and 4, Silver has followed Flint into the darkness, but I'm really interested in the subtler shift from Silver as this comedic schemer/shape-shifter to someone who becomes trapped in a space where it seems there are few real choices. He forever sees himself as an outsider, but that final scene between Flint and Silver is equally tragic for both characters. Silver is so intimately involved with Flint's tragic arc that the story and the tragedy have become Silver's by the end.

we have a lot of ahahs about flint having gay panic while holding silver at knifepoint in 201 (and i am sure he was) but i often think about how it's also a very defining moment for him in starting to see silver as a serious threat. up until now, silver has done moderately smart things in his presence, but he has been careful about not overdoing it. the insight about the boatswain's whistle is the first time he genuinely outsmarts flint, thinking about a better plan than he could come up with.
and i think the evidence that flint is really taking that in comes a few episodes later. when in 207 flint makes his point that "those men listen to you...where else would you wake up in the morning and matter?" it seems like an intuition that comes a bit out of nowhere, one of those broad statements that flint often makes because he is better at reading masses than specific people and he believes that, statistically, he will hit something. but, thinking back, this is almost exactly the same argument silver used in 201 to manipulate him. to earn his trust he plays on flint's isolation by underscoring "i'm the only person within a hundred miles of here who doesn't want to see you dead". the manipulation is imperfect. it's in silver-speak and, therefore, about survival, which flint cares less about than reputation (silver has not had this epiphany yet). still it partially works, but more importantly it alerts flint to the fact that silver is in the exact same situation and that saving flint is an extreme act of desperation to have anyone on his side. also, that silver thinking this is an effective point could potentially be very revealing about what his priorities are. so he files it away. and when he needs to convince silver to stay he brings it out to see if it sticks. but the manipulation is also imperfect. it was translated in flint-speak in transit which means that it's now about reputation, which silver cares less about than survival. still it partially works. and so on.
