I am once again wishing that the Maroons' and Vane's stories could have interacted significantly
+ Bonus:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[Image ID: The main post shows 6 photos from Black Sails overlain with text. The 3 images on the left show Vane and Eleanor arguing in his room in the fort. Text reads, "Side with me and we will show England that this place has never been stronger, and we'll keep our freedom for another day, another month, another year, a lifetime. Do you believe me?" The 3 images on the right show the Maroon Queen talking to Madi at night in the Maroon camp. Text reads, "But I have seen those things. And I will hold them at bay for as long as I'm able to. For every day that we avoid colliding into their world is a day children are born here, is a day families exist here. I'm in no hurry to see that end. Nor should you be." The bonus part shows 4 photos from Black Sails overlain with text. The 2 images on the left show Vane saying "Show it to me. Hand me my future here in this room. What? It isn't just your words, is it? The promise of a thing hard to define and impossible to deliver." The 2 on the right show the Maroon Queen saying, "I'm not going out there with 'I don't know yet.' These people know their lives are about to change. They know they'll need to fight to survive, but I will not go before them and argue to have that fight all at once and risk losing everything all at once unless I am certain that fight can be won." end ID]

the moment when the maroon queen asks silver how they found the island and complete panic washes across the face of a lying liar who lies and whose fate now depends upon how well he tells the truth

XXXV. Progress cannot begin and suffering will not end until someone has the courage to go out into the woods and drown the damned cat.

Mr Scott's Influence Black Sails Musical Parallels | XII. XXIII. XXXIII.
I spent a year rewatching Black Sails and tracking all the bits of music that repeated at any point during the show, and my findings are reinforcing that Bear McCreary is a genius and this show should have been called 'parallels that will kill you over and over again'* (tag | chronological)

NAME: Maroon Queen
ALIAS: Maroon, Red Lady, Flesh Nymph, Heart of the forest
AGE: Close to 373
PRONOUNS: She/Her
HEIGHT: 7'3
WEIGHT: Fluctuates
SPECIES: Forest Mavka, elder
BIRTHPLACE: Kozak Sich
APPEARANCE: Anthropomorphic remanence of very old mavka. The entirety of the body is made out of flesh, bones, veins and blood of fallen people and animals surrounding the territory of old Sich. In the chest cavity, a bunch of viburnum flowers grow all the time (they never fade away due to their core - the heart of Kalyna). The chest cavity also is partially protected by additional hands. Often is seen with 3 to 6 poterchata (children's spirits).
PERSONALITY: Protective, sisterly and melancholic, this being is made out of loss and unfulfilled potential. The mostly docile creature spends most of her time underground sleeping.
LIL BIO: At life her name was Kalyna. The story of her death goes as follows in most legends. The girl Kalyna was picking berries in the forest and suddenly saw that the enemies - the Tatars, were coming to the village. She ran to the village and warned her fellow villagers. While villagers all ran to secret underground hiding tunnels, Kalyna distracted the enemies. She led them to the swamp where, after learning about her plan, they killed her. But they still couldn't get out of the swamp, they were in too deep. The girl's blood fell on the nearby bushes and turned into berries with heart-like grains, which were later called viburnum.
After passing, Maroon had 200 years of hibernation. After awakening she rarely appears in people's view, her presence is felt by the smell of fresh blood. She still mourns the loss of her humanity.

In a bout of synesthesia that I hope is not prophetic, I suddenly heard Enjolras singing - One more day before the storm! Past the barricades of freedom! When our ranks begin to form
and I had to pause and make this post because uh, in that other story everyone fucking died except the useless straight airheads.

Black Sails Monologuolympics BR2.2: Secondary Characters: Round 2
2/8: Mr.Scott vs. the Maroon Queen
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mr. Scott, to Madi, 306: “Those men rose to their stations because they are peerless when it comes to shaping the world to their will, in creating a narrative and wielding it to compel men's hearts and minds. But the most compelling story requires a villain at its center. And if either Captain Flint or Mr. Silver sees the other as a villain… or worse… us as that… then all is lost. They are of great value to us, but they must be managed by us to avoid that outcome. I wish… you and I had not been so separate all those years. I wish I could have found a way to be a better father to you. But over time, I was determined to leave you something behind, to give you the one thing that no one could ever take away… and that would make you strong enough to understand their world, interact with their world… wage war on their world. But if their identity lies in their stories, I wanted you to know them so that when we are ready to call them enemies, you would be ready for it. The villain makes the story. So to manage our current partners, we must ensure that we all agree at all times who our common villain is."
VS.
Maroon Queen, to Madi, 304: “The men in that cage are deceitful men. They will say things that will sound appealing to you, especially to you. But you must not let them sway you. Your father and I built this place to separate ourselves from their world. […] We are separate enough that we have no need to see them. To steal from them. To fight with them. To know their chains again. I have worked so hard to ensure that you've never had to see those things. But I have seen those things. And I will hold them at bay for as long as I'm able to. For every day that we avoid colliding into their world is a day children are born here, is a day families exist here.I'm in no hurry to see that end. Nor should you be. That separation rests entirely on our existence remaining a secret. The pirates, for as long as they draw breath, could and would for a profit compromise that secret. So they must be eliminated.”

Plan Unfolding Black Sails Musical Parallels | X. XXXIV.
music variation note: the first scene has string instrumentation over the parallel melody.
I spent a year rewatching Black Sails and tracking all the bits of music that repeated at any point during the show, and my findings are reinforcing that Bear McCreary is a genius and this show should have been called 'parallels that will kill you over and over again'* (tag | chronological)
