I am super new to the Black Sails Fandom, so I don't know if this has been brought up before, but what if we actually already know John Silvers story and didn't know it.
What if John Silver is actually Jim Hawkins.
This is how we met him.
What if Jim Hawkins origin story is his origin story. He lived and worked at his family's inn, he got to a point in his life where he wanted more and got on the first boat setting sail.
Look at this guy, look at his face, his easy smile. You can hear a whole lot of stories in an inn. You can also be keen on making up stories to keep from being bored. It's obvious that John was adept at taking in information and inserting himself into the narrative. If he is actually Jim Hawkins, he has been doing it most of his life.
Look at him, he is used to sneaking around corners and eavesdropping and stuff.
What if he wrote Treasure Island later in life as a why to finally tell his story, since he couldn't bring himself to reveal his truth in his pirate heyday?
What do you guys think?
what about a svsss au where every single character are all actually transmigrators?
In other words, SVSSS is a dungeons and dragon game.

dear 3 people in the OVNI(s) fandom, here are my badly made drawings of the squad.
[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled “immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]
a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”

Summary: “I understand many of you may not be taking this indoctrination to heart.” Wen Chao pompous voice rang through, finally breaking the silence. If Wei Ying was next to him, he would roll his eyes so dramatically that Lan Wangji would be able to hear it - the thought comforts him. “Which pains me; submitting to the rules will makes this a much more pleasant experience. This is supposed to be educational for all of us. So, in case any of you aren’t taking this seriously still…” He eyes traveled to his side where two guards holding something lifeless by either arm, walking towards Wen Chao and the teens following his gaze. Nie Huaisang stiffened next to him. Jiang Wanyin screamed his brother’s name. Jin Zixuan’s inhaled sharply. But all Lan Wangji saw was Wei Ying.
Kay's comments: This fic offers some delicious, delicious angst. In which, after Wei Wuxian spent a night in the dungeons during the indoctrination, his "corpse" is dropped in front of the others the next day to make a point and to show them that actions have dire consequences. Wei Wuxian isn't dead of course and instead scheming with Wen Qing and Wen Ning and only pretending to be dead, but still, his little stint definitely inspires some confessions! Also, Lan Wangji and Jiang Cheng are forced to be roommates while they still think that Wei Wuxian is dead and well. Hopeful ending because this story kick-starts a canon-divergent timeline that might end up being better than canon!
Excerpt: “Was your little mission worth Wei Wuxian’s life?” If Jiang Wanyin’s voice cracked at the question, who was going to judge? Lan Wangji stiffened. No. Of course not, how could he – how dare he? “No,” Lan Wangji snarled. A small part of him knew that Jiang Wanyin was grieving in his own way, anger and resentment outweighing his grief and despair; Lan Wangji should keep silent, let him rage…but fury was overwhelming him. Nothing was worth Wei Ying’s pain. Jiang Wanyin scoffed bitterly. "I thought it was against your precious sect rules to lie.” Lan Wangji eyes narrowed dangerously. “It is.” “Oh look, he does have emotions,” Jiang Wanyin’s scathing laugh of worthy of Wen Chao’s. “It only took getting someone killed. How sweet.”
pov lan wangji, canon divergence, the untamed compliant, yin iron, qishan wen indoctrination, assumed major character death, angst with a happy ending, angst and hurt/comfort, hopeful ending, getting together, love confessions, first kiss, everybody lives/nobody dies, good friend wen ning, good sibling jiang cheng

I have seen some canons, where Erestor is Maglor or related/close confidante to a Feanorian. An awkward way to introduce yourself after War of Wrath, no doubt.
But it got me thinking, what if his background was even more headache inducing. So, ladies and gentleman, my take: Erestor is Elurid &Elurin.
Hear me out- the twins were left to die in wood and, we know, Maedhros went after them. He went there to save them, but, to twins, he was their enemy. The person who burned their home. Who killed their parents. Who was probably coming to kill them or keep them hostage for getting Silmaril. So they hid away from him and Maedhros did not find them.
And for the rest, it was that. After all, how could two young princes survive the hardship of life outside their comfort of palace? At best, they would die out of hunger or harsh environment and at worst, the orcs would find them. They were right, too.
They survived for few days. But they were children. Princes, at that. They have bevy of servants and maids taking care of them. They were provided with the best of the best. Food. Clothing. Tutelage.
They were not accustomed to these hardships. To forage for their food. To survive alone in woods. To watch out for Morgoth's servants. And soon they were out of luck.
Tired. Hungry. Hopeless. They fell in the path of a hunting party. Summoning the last dregs of energy, they tried to run away. To sing them away. (Music is a weapon on itself, for elves.) But they were children. Their efforts were futile.
That day, the hunting party left two dead elfings in their wake.
Now, normally, when elves die, they go to Mandos and men to their own version of afterlife. An easy to understand system. But, with Luthien's descendants, it is a bit difficult to say, how much of them is Man or Elf. But that is for another times.
At times, some elven spirits reject the call of Mandos and wander the Arda. (It was written in one of the books. I think. Idk, what really happens after that.)With time, they start loosing their sense of self. They become ghosts or spirits with not memory.
Elurid and Elurin never went to either of the afterlives. Not because they rejected, but they never felt their calling. To either Mandos or wherever men go after death. So, in that forest, their spirit dwelled for a period of time. It was not for long.
Even without realizing, they started making an elven body for themselves. (Just as Maia of Lorien do it for reborn elves.) The way to fashion a body of Elda was within their grasp. In their mind, soul and song. A feeling of deja vu. As if death revealed a part of song that eluded them before. Made the chorus rise up their throat. Made their spirits walk. It felt as if they had known this forever, but now it is within their grasp. Perhaps, Melian took pity upon them and gave them this kernel of knowledge or it was something they just knew because of their heritage. Who knows.
So they, fashioned a body. With nature, with their song and their Fëa. They could not make a vessel out of nothing. They were not Vala. They may be of Mairan descent, but they were too young. To inexperienced. Thus they needed substitutes to turn into body parts. Sometimes, it took months to find a perfect substitute. To travels miles before they found the part that felt right. That called to their soul.
Discarded weapons from fallen Doriath for their bones. Water of pond deep in the earth became their blood. Webs of Ungoliant's brood made their hair.
They plucked the freshest of leaves to stitch themselves a skin and walked the shores of Balar for seashells to fashion nails and teeth.
They scavenged the dead stag's and deer's for muscles and bound them together with the roots given by ancient trees of Nan Emloth.
For eyes, they walked in the palace of the hidden Gondolin. They could give us this much, the twins reasoned. For vision, they weaved strands of sunlight around the gems.
The heart was difficult. They stumbled upon a dying elf warrior in red, they sat beside her and listened to her tale spoken between bubbling gasps. And asked if they could have her heart as she does not need it anymore? For your kindness, she said with her last breath.
For lungs they wove vines and flowers from the hidden gardens of Silvan Elves. They wrapped it around the heart and ribs. The vines stretched upward their throat, around and unknown musical instrument they found in Daeron's abandoned quarters.
They dived in deep sea to find hollow tubes for vessels, honeycomb for brain, and spools of mithril weaving inside and outside for nerves.
For intestines and blood vessels, they swam to the dark of ocean and took hollow tubes out of the body of deep sea creatures.
It took them years to travel, to find, to make a Hroa, sufficient enough for their spirit. They traveled and saw the world. They learned and grew up. But time was near and they felt it. Their sister was gone. And something big was coming.
But only one was ready. And they were too restless. The unhoused body called to their anchorless spirits. They thought how bad it could be? All their lives, they have shared everything. A womb, a childhood, days they spent looking through each other's eyes, happiness and agony and death. What does it matter, if they shared a body too? (So two fea inhabited a hroa.)
It was bad. They were too uncoordinated and unused of a body this big. They had forgotten how to be corporal. They stumbled upon legs as weak as a newborn fawn. Their eyes hurt from looking all around them. And their mind was a cacophony of senses and thoughts. But they did it. And they could learn to dwell together in a body too.
Soon they learned to coexist in a body. They learned its control. Get accustomed to their senses and to each other. They also learned that their body was far too different from elves they have observed. Oh, it looked like them and was just like them. But there were differences.
Their eyes looked a bit too much like stones from certain angles, one was a shade lighter than other and they glowed like elves from Aman. Their joints could rotate in a way that they were sure normally should not. Their blood ran too thin, like water. Their hair did not have the texture as same as others. Too thin strands and too light in weight. If they pressed their skin, they could trace the leaves. Their body was not as light as it ought to be. They decided to leave it be. The difference were minor and could be overlooked.
They thought where to go now, so they simply traveled in hopes to find a way. They wandered near human settlements, helping them and learning by watching them. They were good at it. They practiced what they had seen as spirit. The trees brought them the rumor of a war incoming.
So one day, they showed upon Cirdan's doorstep. For he was known to them. And introduced themselves as Erestor. They were not, could not be, heirs or remembrance anymore. Elurid thought it was a humorous name. And the rest was history.
[A/N]: Just an idea that I decided too post. I have no idea wth I've written, except, it all came by itself. Enjoy!

Oh god, I don't think I've ever seen a Critical Role episode live because it's always been too early for me so far. I live in Germany and it's always the middle of the night for me. I got up this morning and saw that the Critical Role livestream was still on and thought I'd take a look. It was very stressful, but at least I'm awake now.

Doctor Who: "The timeless Children" war gar nicht so schlecht...
Hi,
Viele werden diesen Text nicht lesen können, da ich auf Deutsch schreibe, aber ich vertraue meinen Sprachkenntnissen nicht genug um dies auf Englisch zu schreiben.
Was ich hiermit sagen möchte ist folgendes:
Ich bin definitiv nicht der einzige, der Doctor Who schaut und auch definitiv nicht der einzige, der von den Wendungen in der neusten Folge überrascht war.
Ich weiß auch, das diese Wendungen viele Menschen verärgern und sie sagen die Serie wäre ruiniert.
Ich bin mir bewusst, dass ich diese Menschen nicht vom Gegenteil überzeugen kann, aber ich bitte jeden der mir zuhört, etwas offen zu sein.
Nur weil die Dinge momentan verwirrend sind und die Folge eine große Veränderung in der Geschichte des Doctors ist, heißt das noch lange nicht, dass sie so schlecht sein muss.
Ich gebe zu, ich war selbst nicht der größte Fan von Staffel 11, aber es gab dort auch noch einige Folgen, die mir gefallen haben.
Generell kann man sagen, das Doctor Who schon immer seltsam, durcheinander und voller Plotholes gewesen ist. Man denke nur daran, an wie vielen unterschiedlichen Daten die Welt schon untergegangen ist. Jedoch das hat mich persönlich nie abgehalten, Doctor Who anzuschauen.
Kritik über die Story von Doctor Who gab es auch schon immer. Bitte lasst euch nicht den Spaß an der Geschichte des Doctor verderben, denn vielleicht wird das, woran sich momentan so viele stören bald aufgelöst und es macht plötzlich alles Sinn.
Dementsprechend würde ich die Menschen bitten, etwas abzuwarten, genauer über die Neuerungen in der Geschichte nach zu denken und sie nicht sofort zu verurteilen.
Ich will hiermit keinem etwas vorschreiben, oder denjenigen die Meinung schlecht machen, aber ich möchte euch bitten, euch auf die Neuerungen in der Serie einzulassen und sie vielleicht einfach zu akzeptieren, anstatt sofort zu fluchen.
Mir persönlich hat die Folge gefallen und ich hoffe, das ich mit dieser Meinung nicht alleine bin.
