Spike: Or maybe Captain Forehead was feeling a little less special. Didn't like me crashing his exclusive club, another vampire with a soul in the world. Angel: You're not in the world, Casper.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
On rewatching, I'm also becoming fond of Fang (Izzy's portly white-bearded henchman who dimples up and gets all flustered when Lucius asks if anyone has ever told him he has lovely cheekbones (and who cried about having to put down Mrs. Pitts, because "we go to different heavens!"). He's all gruffly generic snarling-henchman in the beginning, but the longer he's on the Revenge the more of a soft doting utter elder muffin he becomes.
And MR. BUTTONS- I can’t believe Calico Jack killed his gull friend. And I wanted Olivia (the gull wife/girlfriend) to peck him to death!
I love that all the other humans call him Buttons, but when we got a peek at the gull-to-human subtitles we saw that Karl and Olivia know him as Nathaniel.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Yes! And I do love that Stede calls him “Mr. Buttons” and everyone else just “Buttons”.
I also love Fang. The different heavens thing kills me!
I think they are the two I would get in a “Which character are you?” Quiz.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I think Frenchie is my favorite crew member. Or Oluwande. Can't decide! I love Frenchie's combo of goofball and deadpan, plus his musical talents, and Olu is definitely the kindest and most responsible. I hope he gets to captain his own ship someday, if he wants to.

I love Frenchie’s continued fear of cats!
I just realized Buttons reminds me of Richardson in Deadwood, for Deadwood watchers.
I think the actual best humans are probably Olu and Frenchie. Not sure of my favorite, still.

Roach has some great moments too. I’ve watched him bounce that sandwich off Izzy’s forehead like 19 times, and I love when Lucius and his dead finger flee he leans out his little half window calling, “It was only a dream, come back!”

Ugh, someone on Twitter pointed out that with his last actions Ed not only went full-bore Blackbeard but went out of his way to specifically destroy the remaining happy couples. Two people dumped on an island, with their partners either pitched overboard or imprisoned under armed guard.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
DH and I watched Ep8 last night and on the one hand the last two eps are so good (KISS ON THE BEACH. THE WIDOW BONNET.) but on the other hand I kind of want to stop watching now before anything bad happens? At least until S2 is announced?

UGH, DAMNIT ED.

It was fucking kind of gauche.
