Our Flag Means Death Showrunner David Jenkins on Fandom and Queer Fantasy

And you remember that little half shirt?” As Jenkins talks he stands up and tucks his shirt in, showing off just the littlest bit of his torso. I am delighted, this is so fun and silly. I cannot believe David Jenkins is demonstrating the parts of Blackbeard’s outfit that are most like Prince.

I mentioned fan fiction as emerging from all this meta, and told Jenkins that this is the biggest explosion of fic I’ve ever seen a fandom produce in so little time. “I get confused with that. What counts as fanfiction? Like when is it designated as fan fiction? It’s just writing,” he said. “I remember seeing Con’s audition, and we were still in the writers’ room, writing the first season.

Jenkins is, without a doubt, one of the most earnest artists I’ve ever spoken to. He’s talking about fandom like they’re his kids, like he’s the captain of this grand, massive crew that’s building the ship as he’s sailing it.
