I don’t think we’ll ever see anything like the Breaking Bad universe ever again. 14 years of top-shelf television and a movie epilogue and it all stuck the landing. Taking what was originally a comic relief side character and turning him into one of the most layered characters and the tritagonist of the whole universe. Taking a Greek tragedy about meth dealers and turning it into a love story between two lawyers and somehow making those two things fit perfectly together. Taking Cinnabon and somehow making it not look like crappy mall food. It really is just unbelievable when you look back at it all, and every single second of it is going to go down in history.
I fucking love how Our Flag Means death has explicit, unabashed queer romance and character but ALSO has wall-to-wall metaphors and symbolism. We can have the kiss but we can ALSO read into the colors of wardrobes and whether a character wears gloves or not. We can read into the metaphor of Stede’s secret closet and letting Ed in, and ALSO have a fully fleshed-out storyline about a gay man in a loveless marriage telling his wife “his name is Ed.” We have the red silk scene in the moonlight, of gently handling a bit of cloth to represent a heart, and we have “what makes Ed happy is…you.”
We get all the subtle details of brief touches and meaningful glances, but not instead of explicit queerness—it’s that the unabashedly queer characters and story deserve that level of build-up and poetry.
This is both funny and sad at the same time. David Jenkins was out here writing explicitly romantic scenes but we were all too used to being baited to believe him. I owe this man my life
So I went fully insane on this one. Backgrounds aren’t really my strong suit and I think I ended up drawing this one like……..4…5 times? I also hand painted all the patterns cause as I mentioned before - I’m fully insane for these pirates.
