DUDE. THE WAY JIM HAWKINS VIEWS SILVER THRU TREASURE ISLAND VS THE WAY SILVER HAS THIS UNENDING FONDNESS FOR JIM
#idk its like. silveris the monster jim dreams of. but silver sees jim as naive to society maybe. someone who might be on his side bc hes not#yet been too poisoned by society to hate silver completely#or. theres no kids on nassau. at most we see young boys who run messages for eleanor who look 10-12#(if memory serves me). and silver sees jim and recognizes this is no place for a child. one who still has a chance to escape#hmmmmmm. idk i think thr way youth is portrayed (with RLS's writing) is super interesting bc jim is narrating the story at least a few#months if not years removed from the actual events i froget the timeline exactly#but silver holds like a genuine fondness for jim or at least i think so - or he sees jim as easily manipulatable as a kid#but we only see silver thru jims eyes - jim who is intially drawn in by this one legged man and his stories and his bird#and upon realizing silver is just another pirate turns on him. calls him a monster and treats him like hes subhuman.#idk its just so. INTERESTING#black island treasure sails#<- blacksails/treasure island tag i suppose
