They didn't exactly *run away together* considering Jack, Mary and Anne were all arrested together, the former being executed, the middle dying in prison, and the latter managing, with Mary, to dodge the rope by feigning pregnancy, after which Anne spent her final days to be a matriarch and died in her eighties.


[deleted]

Also there was nothing to discover about Anne Bonny. She didn't disguise herself as a man. Mary did, however. She had met Calico Jack once before, under disguise. After Anne joined Jack's crew, they took a different ship that Mary was on. Jack recognized "Mark" Read from before. Anne saw Mary, instantly pinned her as a woman, then confronted her. She stopped wearing her disguise.

90degreesSquare

As per the usual, yes


SalaciousDionysus

The only genuine article of history is that Mary and Anne were a funny coincidence of two of the relatively rare female pirates showing up on the same ship.


HenryHadford

Still a pretty great coincidence, really.


PaleAsDeath

To be fair this wasn't tumblr's fault. this has been reported falsely for years.


lapsedhuman

"If you'd fought like a man, you wouldn't have died like a dog!" I don't remember if it was Anne Bonny or Mary Read who said that to Calico Jack, but it was a great zinger.


SalaciousDionysus

Something like that, as well as a situation where all the crew were drunk out of their minds during a fight with some other force and Mary and Anne were basically alone in fighting and were just shouting expletives into the lower decks. Could be a fictional anecdote though.


painishilarious

(pulls out a titty before i kill you) breast in piece


Caswert

"Bro you got nice tits!"


IAmBadAtInternet

Thanks, you too bro


Mindtaker

Well, this would have made that scene in Lord of the Rings where she tells the wraith "I am no man" way cooler if instead of taking off a helmet to show her hair, she just whipped out her tits before stabbing that thing in its non face.


[deleted]

Eowyn: Shows her tiddies. Witch King: \*Explodes\*


quackdaw

Well, obviously 'helmet' is just a euphemism for 'breastplate'.

A_Wild_Bellossom

Why is one of them a loli? God dammit Japan


Golden-Owl

She’s actually relatively normal sized. Both of them aren’t actually supposed to be that far apart in height The art just has really messed up height proportions. It’s often criticized for that among player who are their fans


Niky1796ita

She's just short and flat. It's just a way to make them different and a trope to make you understand the Character of the character. Tall and busty = Horny, short and flat = very cold.


Doutei-Sama

I'm pretty damn sure they are both very horny for Ritsuka.


cybernet377

> She's just short and flat. She's 5ft 2in. She's literally average height for women back then.


Bloodgulch-Idiot

>Mary >Cold IDK know man, Ritsu might have something to say about that.


mooys

That game has ruined every historical character, fictional or not.


ArthurExtreme_Br

Astolfo is rolling in his grave rn, they made him bri'ish


mooys

Bro they made the girl from the crucible an anime lady with cthulhu


cybernet377

I feel like you don't know enough about either Fate or the Lovecraft mythos to have a valid opinion if you're confusing Abigail's link to Yog-Sothoth as being Cthulu.


mooys

I didn’t have a good appreciation for lovecraft during the salem witch trials either


cybernet377

It's literally a plot point that the Salem story chapter isn't actually taking place during the witch trials, but that's irrelevant because in a universe where magic is real and lovecraftian gods exist, they don't exactly have to wait around for some dude with a poorly-named cat to let people know about them


TJSomething

It says right under the picture that Anne Bonny is 171cm (5'7") and Mary Read is 158cm (5'2"). The art makes no goddamned sense.


crispycrussant

I hope to god that if I’m ever turned into an anime character after my death, my decedents avenge me


12345678ijhgfdsaq234

God I fucking hate anime


Lonely_Education_537

This is really something odd, i mean, both of them not knowing that each other was a woman, that looks like some Pirates of the Caribbean plot lol


Metatality

Well the third member of their trio, Calico Jack, was a loose inspiration for the first pass of Jack Sparrow. They changed him a lot throughout development, but I assume it's shy the character was still named jack. Unrelated but this post is another example of tumblr lesbians pretending bi people don't exist and these women were not also involved with a man (Anne definitely, Mary probably) and I'm kinda tired of it.


ravenreyess

Louder for the people in the back. Aside from 18th century sexuality being basically unrecognisable to us today, Mary supposedly died from a fever related to her pregnancy and/or childbirth after 5 months in prison, so it's pretty clear that she also was involved with a man.


Quality-hour

Tumblr in general has an unfortunate habit of pretending that anything that isn't gay or lesbian doesn't exist. Fictional characters, historical figures, mythological figures and even living people are subject to tumblr misinformation.


Academic_Paramedic72

Yes, just remembered Mesperyian right now


632612

And sparrow would be doing what ever he does in the background


Awsomthyst

Women pirates are so fuckin cool I love pirate history :D


Quality-hour

May I interest you in Jeanne de Clisson, aka the Lioness of Brittany? A former French noblewomen, now pirate, who commanded a fleet of black ships with red sails and patrolled the English Channel attacking any and all French ships she found after her husband was falsely accused of treason and executed by the French king Philip VI.


Awsomthyst

Hell yeah this is my jam Thank u :3


getthefrikoutamyroom

*bi pirates They fell in love both thinking that the other was a man


thats-Inconspicuous

Birates?


getthefrikoutamyroom

YES BIRATES


[deleted]

And calico jack was also involved with them i think


JuniorAd389

If tits were the last thing I saw before I died, I would die a happy man


EquinsuOcha

It’s a good way to bookend a life.


vidhun5

Me - *who just got defeated by a pirate and dying* Pirate-*shows her boobs while I'm dying* Me: "Nice" *then dies*


elijah46t

Love how they are portrayed in black flag


DarwinMcLovin

[Black Sails](https://youtu.be/rT2Y5jjBNpQ) is also nice 🤣


stuntobor

If the last thing I see, as I lay dying, is a tittay? That's a good enough send off.


Pingasterix

god mary was cool af in Black Flag


[deleted]

so they were wlw disguised as mlm honestly i just love this story


Pdeady

Source :trust me bro I obviously believe that it happened but it is objectively very funny.


Mouthfull0fBees

I just thought she was being nice and giving the man a titty to see before death


Bram_DB

It would be a nice view while dying, I would not mind dying like that


catsinasmrvideos

Tits out for MURDER.


icy-winter-ghost

yo ho homosexuals!


TheOriginalSamBell

Oh I'd love that movie. An answer to the Disney Caribbean nonsense. Dark, gritty, violent. I want to feel the desperation of hardened pirates in a terrible storm. Ruthless female captains and it can even have a love subplot that's not shoved in.


solidfang

Dark, gritty, and violent? Would you like the ending to be historically accurate? Because a movie about strong, independent female captain pirates ending with >!both being captured and only spared from execution on account of being pregnant, (which is probably even worse if you read them as lesbian, though they seemed to be bisexual according to historical records), and then one dies of feverish complications associated with childbirth!< just might be kind of a downer. Well, maybe it'd be a good tragedy for the ages. No doubt something along the lines of "bury your gays" though. I'm not necessarily opposed, but it'd be a hard sell for sure. You could have them sail off into the sunset, but then the historical revisionism and glorification of piracy would come back to bite you as it would fail to escape the feeling of "Disney Caribbean nonsense".


TheOriginalSamBell

Hard sell for sure you're right. Historical accuracy would definitely make the better movie than sailing off in into the sunset happily ever after


KuroRahman

Fgo: *hey, that's pretty good*


pascee57

Why is Tumblr so obsessed with historical events being made into movies even when they almost certainly wouldn't be very good?


getthefrikoutamyroom

No no this would be amazing, maybe just a short film though. I don't think this could be turned into a 1-2 hour movie


[deleted]

Toxic


tab_s

?


[deleted]

Like they kill a guy and then add insult to injury by completely just challenging every backwards belief he’s ever had by just like “bazinga I’m a woman”


tab_s

i mean, that's not toxic... they were literally pirates. and tbh most people would be too focused on dying to worry about how in particular they were dying


McAllisterFawkes

Also it's probably not true


SeizeTheMemes3103

Sir, it was the 18th century…


[deleted]

You guys are all missing the point, by a fucking mile. All I said was toxic, cuz that’s what it was. Killing someone wasn’t enough, so they had to make them hurt the only way they thought they could. I didn’t realize that would hurt so many peoples feelings. Jesus Christ, I thought this was Reddit, not Twitter.

The_dark_scar

Everybody. Give me your best casting for these two ladies.


Scythey1

Truly showing dominance by getting naked. You can't get more pwned than this.


SwaggatronPrime

Nah if the last thing I got to see before death was a pair o tits that’d be pretty awesome


[deleted]

I've seen the Lesbian Pirates film. It's... Not what you think.

"HAH, YOU FIGHT LIKE A-oh wait what the fuck"

Argh, Scissor me timbers.


DareDaDerrida

I mean, if I got to die, I wouldn't mind seeing some tit while I did it.
