Crochet mer!stede petting a little black cat. Octo!ed is turned the other side, angy

Octo!ed and a little black cat. The resemblance is uncanny.

Five coloured sketches of the progression of Stede's outfits through the series.
First sketch: Stede walking around with the potted fern and a quill pen, wearing a light teal vest and breeches over a white shirt and stockings.
Second sketch: Stede kneeling in shock in front of the weapon that Chauncy used, his clothes from the privateer academy rumpled and dirty.
Third sketch: Stede in his celebrity pirate era, with a dark teal shirt that shows off his chest, brown leather pants and boots and a sword belt. He's winking off to his right, holding onto a rope with his left hand and his right is resting on the hilt of his sword.
Fourth sketch: Stede is back in his soft fabrics, in blue cotton pants, leather boots and a linen shirt that's wide open and sliding off his shoulders, showing bites and kisses left by Ed. In his hands he's holding onto the pink robe with a soft smile on his face.
Fifth sketch: Stede finds a middle ground in his wardrobe, mixing the softness of fine fabrics with the practicality of leather. He kept the loose shirt wide open over his chest, with shiny pearl and gold necklaces framing his neckline. He's kneeling with one leg on a stool, leather pants soft and stretching in his pose, and buttery gold leather boots adding a pop of colour to his outfit. His upper body is draped over the counter as he smiles coily at his companion (who's not in frame but is definitely Ed)

It's what I liked the most: everything sounded so plausible and logical even if, from where we stand now, is still just impossible. I haven't read anything else by him, but I surely will in the future!

1.07 This is Happening (a book with an orange cover)
The Martian by Andy Wier. I really liked the movie and the book is even better: it's fun, touching and made me held my breath even if I already know how it was going to end.

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're underwater. Stede is a merman and cupping Ed's cheek as Ed looks up at him. There's a rope falling away from Ed's waist.

Perfection. The acting, the music, the everything. Still makes me emotional

Never not thinking about it 😌

I don't remember anything of the plot, just that I was in absolute awe about the actors' performances (think it was the first thing I watched with Florence Pugh). Never got around to reading the book though, maybe I'll add to my pile for the ofmd reading challenge
