Got a bug in my brain—new little #WIPWednesday with a Stede spiral #ofmd #gentlebeard

He sighed and let his head thunk back against the wall. Edward. Beautiful, brilliant, creative, thoughtful, perfect Edward whose ad for a room to rent he had answered nearly six months ago was out tonight meeting someone and likely falling in love and then one day he’ll tell Stede that he wants the new guy to move in so could Stede please find a new place to live, but of course they’ll still be best friends, but then he’ll start moving their plans and making excuses as to why they can’t meet up, and then he’ll tell Stede that he’s great but that he wants to make sure he’s focusing on his relationship, and then one day Stede will be alone in his shoebox apartment with a cat who doesn’t really like him that he adopted to ease the loneliness and he’ll open the mail to see a wedding invitation for Edward and fucking Daniel or some shit and he won’t have even known it was coming and he’ll be sitting in the audience watching as Ed says his vows and rides off into the sunset with his true love.

Technically it’s not WIPWednesday here for another hour but I am once again bored & trapped in the car so I’m writing divorce boys on my phone

Ed gave Stede his new number. Everyone’s being on their best behavior about it (cw: light sexting)

Ed: do you ever wonder if it was really that good?
Stede: hello, Ed
If what was that good?
Ed: us. The physical part, I mean. I know the other stuff was real, I’m not saying anything about that
Stede: oh. No, I do not wonder that
Ed: I dunno man. We were 22. Could’ve just been the magic of perpetual boners.
Stede: that wasn’t it
Ok, that wasn’t ALL of it
Ed: but how do you know?
Stede: no one has ever made me feel the way you did
And I’ve never made anyone feel as good as I did you, I know that much
Ed’s speechless
Stede: and I hope you don’t mind me saying this…
Ed holds his breath
Stede: but if I could have you again tomorrow, I know with utter certainty that I could have you crying into the pillow case, begging me to come within the hour

Jesus Christ
Ed should stop. He should tell Stede to stop.
Ed: awfully confident, aren’t you?
Stede: you’re a five minute walk from me. Come over and we’ll see
Ed lets out a shuddering breath. This is bad bad bad
Why can’t he stop?
He stares at his phone, unsure what to say
Stede is typing again
Stede: I still know your body. I remember every inch of it. I know the way your feet flex when you’re about to come and the spot behind your ear that makes you go breathless when I kiss it and the fact that your left nipple is more sensitive than the right and that you don’t like to ask for it but you’ll go all dreamy and floaty if I lie down on top of you with my full body weight after you come.
Dots
Ed is having a nervous breakdown. But, like, a horny one.

Stede: I never forgot any of it
Stede: I also know your left hand is resting low on your stomach, and as you read this it’s just starting to flirt with the waistband of your underwear right now
Fuck. Ed’s hand froze, the tips of his fingers just starting to creep beneath the elastic. He hadn’t even realized he was doing it
Ed needs to regain control of the situation
Ed: ok, stalker
Stede: fuck
Stede: come over, please
Stede: do you want me to beg? Because I’m not too proud

It’s easy to think about what was taken from us (S3) instead of being thankful for all we got (so many amazing S2 moments). The love and art is reciprocal and cyclical.

Sometimes I remember worrying that I was embarrassing when I started sharing my fanart. I fell so hard & so fast for our pirates. Then a pro comic artist I really look up to just out of the blue told me my OFMD stuff was "beautiful work". It was like he knew I needed to hear it right at that moment.

This kitten needs some cuddles!

Feels like I haven't drawn Ed in ages, and it's always so weird to switch back from drawing with watercolours to alcohol based markers, but here's a #wipwednesday pic of @mediocrepirate.bsky.social 's Kitten Ed
=^-^=

#ofmd #ourflagmeansdeath #ofmdart

Wip of a drawing showing Edward Teach in a modern AU setting. He's lounging on a sofa, wearing cat ears and Hello Kitty pj's and snuggling a fish plushy. Two cushions on the sofa have print an read "good kitty" and "princess"

A #WIPWednesday for Kinktober day 16, where we ask, "what might have happened after their first S2 kiss, if they'd realized their love was anything but a whim?"

#ofmdnsfw #gentlebeard

Ed is wearing black cat ears, paw mitts, a tail, and a black collar that says 'kitten'. Stede is seated on a chair, only his bestockinged leg visible along with a hand petting Ed's hair. Ed is holding onto his leg and rubbing his face against the stocking.

The way Stede’s so confused but quickly adds it to his vocabulary 😂

#ofmd

Stede looking deeply confused, asking “Is that a pirate term, or?”

Stede telling Anne and Mary “But he decided I wasn't going to doggie heaven,” looking very pleased about being saved and using this pirate term

If you’re into the idea of psychic/ mind-fucking, I had to use just about every available telepathy tag for Matching Frequencies 😂 Set in a distant, dire future, inventor Ed has created a sex club that runs on telepathy. He and Stede find new ways to connect.

i purchase wbd. fire david zaslav. cancel the harry potter projects, doing my best to save most jobs. fund a third season of our flag means death consisting of 12 45-minute episodes. maybe uncancel some other stuff like rap shit. i convert wbd into some sort of worker-owned co-op then leave

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

This is my favorite time of year. I am not fall's favorite human though. Low sunlight sads got me hard today. Needed to draw a tiny comfy Ed about it.
