;;Last I'll say about this; I realize that, given some book that's come out, my interpretation of Salazar isn't 100% 'canon'. Let me be honest: I'm not a fan of the pirates canon and I don't hold it up as some holy text. I disregarded it back when I wrote Norrington and I will do the same here. My Salazar is what I make of him and I choose to make him layered and morally contoured because I find that more interesting to write than just 'he's always been 100% an evil selfish douche bag all the way'. Don't get me wrong, I DO love writing genuinely selfish assholes, even Snidley Whiplash type villains that are just out to fuck things up for the sake of doing it, but my Salazar does not fall into that category and never will. He's more tragic/cautionary tale than he is a villain, in my mind, someone whose good intentions got twisted and mangled in the brambles of his pride and turned him into a monster. His merciless slaughtering of pirates comes from not only losing his father and grandfather to them, but from having experienced the Barbary pirate raids in Valencia, wherein people were taken captive as slaves, raped, killed, etc. One may not agree with his methods, one may argue that not all pirates should be implicated in something awful that not all pirates did and that's valid (something I would even personally agree with) but it's important to understand where my Salazar is coming from. I'm frankly tired of having to defend him so this is the last I'm going to say about it. This is my spin on the character and I think I'm going to start avoiding content that tries to argue otherwise because (and to no one's fault) it frustrates me.

;;I mean the truth about Salazar is that he's an underdeveloped character in terms of what the canon presents- and ultimately he's meant to be a villainin Pirates canon because he's the lawful figure that goes against the pirate mentality; "take what you can, give nothing back". We do know that even before the curse he's likely driven by some sense of revenge, having lost both his father and grandfather to pirates (I'm going by movie canon here, that's from which I base most of my headcanons) but he also mentions pirates 'infecting' the seas, which gives a sense of a lawman trying to clean up and run out criminals that threaten the livelihoods of honest people. In a different source material that would be the character of protagonist but the Pirates franchise is very much in favor of the chaotic/true neutral alignments and a character may only redeem himself from his sinfully lawful ways IF he makes a choice that deviates from the lawful alignment IN THE FAVOR OF Jack or one of the main characters.

But I digress.

Salazar does indeed curse himself when he lets his own arrogance take hold. It's not enough for him that he's taken down so many criminal pirate rings, there is ONE BOY that dares to insult him and his power. That's how he describes it- challenging his power. While I write Salazar as a man who works in the interest of the greater good I think there IS a sliver of darkness, a selfishness in him that gets stronger the more successful he is and in this moment he forgets what he's been working toward- not to be powerful, perse, but to do what he must for the greater interest of humanity, to protect people from the sort of pirates back then that would pillage, rape, steal, etc. His arrogance propels him to go after Jack and, of course, his own demise. That mistake, that arrogance grows in his cursing until its all he can feel or think. He becomes impotent rage and ego personified and all the goodness he had is drained of him (sort of, as some of you know, I play it as still there just...muted. Very much).

So, anyway. I don't play him as a perfect human being, but I do write him as someone who has honorable motivations that get tangled up with his pettiness, ego and deep hunger for vengence. I write Salazar as a good man at heart, but one with many flaws and failings. He's in some, perhaps many ways a Salieri to Jack's Amadeus...but he is not, in my opinion, an irredeemable monster. I do not write him that way even when he's cursed.

#ooc #;;im v protective of salazar ok #i don't claim that he's perfect and blameless #but i think people (even those that are fans of him) sometimes go out on a limb to make him worse than he is #i feel like there are people who either overly glorify him and those who vilify him beyond reason #it's hard to find a middle ground here

Sheets ;)

a sexual fantasy my muse has about your muse

Armando tries, as ever, to keep his wordly desires (and those of the flesh) at bay. Not only is he a soldier and servant of Spain first and foremost, but he considers himself a loyal child of God as well and knows the expectations set for him. Impure thoughts about a woman he hasn’t married are bad enough, but the fact that she is a pirate makes the stirrings of desire all the more blasphemous. He should hate her, he should have absolutely no hesitation in sending her to trial in Cádiz, but he does despite it all. And what’s worse than this unprecedented clemency is that he imagines her coming to him in the night, quickly and soundless like a cat, because if the crew heard! If they knew! He can feel the burning hot roll of her hips against his own and the phantom sensation of his hands grasping for her flesh, desperate. He all but smothers her in nectarous kisses and harsh caresses and they practically devour each other in his sheets as makes desperate love to her in something that dances on the border between hate and lust and something deeper besides that he doesn’t dare acknowledge. He aches for her and he hates that he does.
