You're not a man... You're deformed. Unformed. You cannot comprehend what you took from me or why it was good, because there is no goodness in you. There is no humanity in you, no capacity for compromise, nor instinct toward repair, nor progress. Nor forgiveness. You are an animal. Nassau is moving on from you, and so am I.

Silverflint “In Peril” Fic Rec List

Hi guys! I got an anon a few weeks ago requesting Silverflint recs with the prompt: “one of them being in danger/peril/kidnapped (or anything akin to that) and the other going just above and beyond to save him. something with the vibe, if you hurt him i'll kill you.” 

There were hmmm not as many as I thought with the EXACT getting rescued parameter but I compiled some similar ones as well. Enjoy.

--

Affinity by Magnetism_bind

Summary: Silver spends his time while captured by Hands thinking of Flint and ignoring his feelings for the man.

It's a little harder to do so after Flint rescues him.

Notes: Oneshot, 4.6k, definitely the best and most faithful example of the prompt as submitted. Silver is held hostage and brutalized by Israel Hands and Flint rescues him.

Another Way by x_etoile_x

Summary: Silver doesn’t get the chance to turn back and attack the Spanish soldiers when he and Flint are captured on the warship, so he needs to come up with a different plan. Things get out of control. A retelling of their time on the warship at the beginning of S2, in the aftermath of this.

Notes: Long fic, 29k. Fantastic story on many levels. For the list, first chapter has a direct fulfillment of the prompt--Flint is in danger, Silver goes above and beyond to save him.

Fifteen Men in September by ballantine

Summary: Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum! Drink and the devil had done for the rest Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!

A Black Sails origin story for the song.

Notes: Long fic, 34k, just a fantastic read. There is a pivotal scene where Silver kills a man on Flint’s behalf and then further scenes of both of them in peril, Silver gravely ill. Very much the “going above and beyond” and “if you him I’ll kill you” vibe.

we were never meant to survive (but what if we did) by explosiontimothy, inwardphae

Summary: Since you still haven’t told me your name, I shall call you Jonah. You are so obsessed with sea and water that you’d make a home out of the belly of a whale if only it meant not to touch foot on solid land ever again. What if you get stuck there? I’d be forced to make my way to you and drag you out, cut the whale’s skin with my knife like a shark with its teeth and carve my shape out of it. And yours. There are two fighters, on opposite sides of the time war. They have never met but they know each other's names. But names are powerful, untamed things when they are spoken out loud. So they don’t call each other by their names, ever. Until, one day, they do. The Silverflint Time-Travel AU no one asked for, but you're all getting anyway.

Notes: Long fic, 46k, big concept sweeping crossover with the book This is How You Lose the Time War. Without spoiling, this story very much embodies “going above and beyond to save him.” Top tier.

darkness in his fingertips, eyes just the same by Jaynovz

Summary: A desperate fear is welling up in Silver. Flint, injured? How grievous a wound must it be to keep Flint from a battle? To prevent him from heading up the rescue party? Flint, who Silver had seen take a warship with a shot shoulder, Flint, who shrugged off injuries from raids with an annoyed grimace as if they were minor inconveniences. Silver’s heartbeat is too fast and too slow at the same time, ice creeps around him from all sides at the stark reminder that Flint is mortal. The man who would sneer at God, who would sail straight into a tempest, who seemed to control reality with his demons… Silver has seen Captain Flint bleed, yes, but it’s never mattered like this, never truly hampered him.

And on the heels of this fear is something far less enfeebling, something Silver embraces: a dark vortex of rage.

Notes: Oneshot, 4.3k. A reaction to in peril. An alt canon take of early s4 where Billy injures Flint at the Underhill Plantation. After Silver returns, he murders Billy for the insult. “If you hurt him, I’ll kill you” exactly.

frail and fragile bars by Ajaxthegreat

Summary: “I think you fuck,” Silver says. By which he means, with great intent: I think you are human. I know you are human. I see you.

Notes: Long fic, 21k. A very excellent story overall, and for this list specifically, it features Flint taking a sword to protect Silver in battle and Silver murdering the man responsible.

how we could be brought here by love by mapped

Summary: A 4x03 AU where Flint receives a minor injury in the battle of Nassau Town and Silver is very shaken by it.

Notes: Oneshot, 3.7k. Not a rescue so much as Silver’s intense reaction to Flint being hurt. I think it fits the vibe.

in over our heads by Jaynovz

Summary: Set at the end of 2.1.

The remaining Walrus crew want Silver flogged.

The experience creates some altogether unexpected outcomes.

Notes: Mid-size fic, 13k. Silver is flogged, Flint is very affected by that, takes care of him after, and they both learn a lot about each other ahem. “If you hurt him I’ll kill you” vibes definitely feature.

please do not let me go by natlet

Summary: Vulnerability, it turns out, is a blade that cuts both ways.

Notes: Series, 5 stories, 39k words total. An overall excellent series of Silverflint fics, however the one I’m thinking of for this list is the fourth, all pale and panting, where Flint is gravely ill and Silver goes above and beyond to take care of him.

As always, let me know if you have a suggestion for an inclusion and I’ll give it a look. Thanks.

Remus

Best places to kiss on their body

Guilty pleasures

What gets them flustered

Ingrained habits/forces of habit

People they’ve hurt or indirectly killed, and how it affected them

Turning points in their life

Oh hello there again :)))

I love the difference in answers between your two asks because I got all dark and broody about sirius and then I’m just like remu 😋

His. Scars. He’s very insecure about them obviously and so when he gets kissed on his scars he automatically falls in love and is absolutely DONE FOR. it makes him cry too, he just feels so loved, for ALL of him.

A cheeky guilty pleasure for him is a big block of chocolate, a good cup of piping hot tea, and a smutty romance book. He’ll curl up in the winter and read that shit so fast and won’t tell a SOUL what he’s reading about… maybe Lily, because Lily would absolutely join him and they’d both giggle about it together. But one that’s not so good, that he feels a little more guilty about, is smoking. Lily and Mary constantly tell him how gross it is and how bad for him it is and how it’s gonna make him sick but he just can’t help it. It calms him. Temporarily.

Remus is SO easy to fluster, he’s just an absolute loser so any attention he gets is well received. Of course the scar kissing makes another appearance here, because obviously he’d get flustered about his scars being dubbed beautiful and kissable. But just any kind of flirting or sexual insinuation. And also, sirius blacks infamous grin. Right from age 11, it always gets him red in the cheeks and giggling, tripping over his own feet and stuttering.

Cigarettes can make another appearance for forces of habit. Another not so good one is doing things he knows he shouldn’t. He’s very good at not listening to people when they tell him no and also ignoring his own conscience. Sometimes he just wants something so bad he’ll go through shitty things to get to it, even if it makes him feel terrible throughout and after.

Given they were in the midst of a war, I think he would have killed a few people. I think he feels moderately bad about it. Because obviously it’s a human life, and also what if they had lovers and families and children, but at the same time they’re death eaters and terrible people. James would get terrible guilt about killing and only do it when absolutely necessary, and it would eat him alive, so when Remus sees James reacting like that he begins to feel awful for not feeling the same way, and that’s what really gets to him. He thinks he’s the awful monster he’s fought so hard not to be. But casually he’ll hurt people sometimes, he might bonk Lily on the head when getting a book from the high shelf, or he might be roughhousing with James and slam a bony elbow into his ribs, or he might be drunk and dancing with Sirius and trip and send them both crashing into a table. No matter what, if it’s a friend or just a regular person that he hurts, he feels awful about it. If they cry he gets so distressed, if they’re bruised he’ll feel like a monster for putting it there, if they need a trip to the hospital wing (even for a tiny bandaid) he’ll help them get there and stress over them until madame pomfy bonks him on the head with her wand and tells him it was an accident and they’re fine. He really struggles with that because of his lycanthropy.

There are obviously a few big turning points, like when he was bit as a kid, when he started at Hogwarts, through the prank, fighting in the war, Halloween of 81 and blah blah blah. They all had very big impacts on him, obviously. But one that I like to think about is Remus second Christmas after starting school. Right before the break, him and all his friends (the marauders and the girls) awkwardly got together and exchanged Christmas cards. Remus was nervous about his own because of his terrible hand writing, and he packed a chocolate frog in each of them because it was all he could really afford. He watched some of his friends give out gifts (like James to everyone, and the girls all to eachother). But it was when Lily and sirius both gave remus neatly wrapped gifts, both of them coincidentally a little stack of books hed been wanting to read, and chocolate, did he feel seen. Like they actually valued him as a person and listened to his wants. Luckily they both bought him different books, but lilys gift also came with a stamp with his name on it so he could mark his books as his own, and sirius’ came with a hand made bookmark he’d painted himself. Them, along with James gift of a new cosy sweater, and Peter’s gift of sweets and some gobstones, did remus feel like he really had a place here with his friends and that there was something to value in his person. And then also when the marauders became anamagi Remus silently cried himself to sleep that night because even when they knew the worst parts of him they still loved him and wanted to make him happy. He was destroyed for the better.

Anywhoooooo, I really like insecure remus who is just so baffled to have found kind people who actually enjoy his company and make him feel like more than enough and more than the wolf.

Thank you again for the ask!!!! Have a wonderful day / night / morning / whatever it is you’re doing!! <33

Silverflint Bathing Fic Rec List

So I realized I had most of this rec list already compiled because I really like reading about the Pirate Lads getting squeaky clean. So here ya go!

--

All Our Yesterdays by trill_gutterbug:

Summary: “It might do you good to stop wallowing in your own filth,” Flint replies. “Although just as likely you’d dissolve completely.”

Silver shakes his head. “If you haven’t, I certainly won’t.”

Flint opens his hand invitingly. “Come find out.”

Silver regards him thoughtfully for a long moment. “We won’t fit.”

Flint adjusts himself, sitting up straighter. He lifts one dripping leg onto the edge of the rim, opening a vee of space in the water. “There’s room.”

Bathed by twofronteethstillcrooked:

Summary: An itch had caused him to reach back to scratch. His fingers came away red as the pain shot like cannon fire across his shoulder.

Silver went pale as he rushed nearer. “You told me you weren’t injured.”

Flint shrugged. “I didn’t think I was.”

Silver seemed to be clenching his teeth hard enough to crack rock. His nostrils flared. “We should see to it before you head much further inland.” He sounded like someone Flint did not want to test on the matter.

what the water gave me by youatemytailor:

Summary: "Captain," Silver says, firmly, like this is the most important discussion they have ever had, "Come here now and let me smell your goddamned hair."

Aftermath by Thiebes:

Summary: It had only been days without Silver in front of him, but Flint couldn't take his eyes away.

Flint gives Silver a bath after being captured by Israel Hands.

I wish for once we could stay gold by jaynovz:

Summary: Madi has discovered that pirates truly are a grimy bunch, but her two have managed to keep fairly clean the last few months when they had access to fresh water.

The governor’s mansion is filled with bustle, men scurrying about, seeking answers from both Captain Flint and their new King, but there is time enough to steal them away. Time enough this evening for some respite, to cleanse the grief and violence from the last few days alongside the dirt.

the only way out is the way back in by samedifference61:

Summary: And Silver obviously means to further agitate Flint’s state when he says, “Do you know what she said to me this morning? She said, ‘I cannot understand why the two of you have not been intimate yet.’”

a shared bath, a conversation about death, and a promise

A State of Undress by mycapeisplaid:

Summary: It's not everyday you get to undress your Captain.

Note: Specifically chapter four for the bathing, but the whole series is great :))

from whence we came and to where we shall go by princesskay:

Summary: Only a starving man could be this hungry -- this recklessly wanton.

Our Longed-For Bed by mapped:

Summary: Flint wishes for something he may call home again. Perhaps Silver is that something.

Surety by Magnetism_bind:

Summary: After Silver's finally returned from the sea Flint has to deal with his feelings.

Here there is liberation by frau_kali:

Summary: The water was cool against his skin, making him shiver, probably visibly. He touched the sponge against the area around his stump, doing his best not to wince. The water always helped, always lessened the pain.

“I'd be careful not to waste a single drop of that, if I were you,” Flint spoke up from his desk, making notes in his log. He hadn't looked at Silver since his quartermaster had removed his clothing. Probably too distracting, Silver thought, with a twist of newfound pride. - In which Silver teases Flint, is teased in return, and begins to discover a thing he didn't know he wanted. Oh, and also hair washing and pulling :)

Princes of the New World by x_etoile_x:

Summary: “This is your plan?” Flint sneers, looking at Silver like he’d expected no better. “Hiding below decks like a rat?”

“Now Captain, that’s unkind,” Silver pouts, trying to hide his hurt behind teasing reproach. All day he has tried to match Flint, to fight alongside him though he is ill-suited to it, and it has earned him nothing but disdain. Now it’s time to do things his way for a while. “Like a stowaway, at least.” --- After they have taken the warship and been cast out of the crew, Flint and Silver are forced to contend with each other and the nature of their relationship.

Note: Bathing specifically in chapter 4, but the whole series this belongs to, our feast is but beginning, is top tier, highly recommend.
