This is Ed, and this is Ed’s bedroom, and there is no safer place or person. And Ed, his best friend, the coolest person he knows, kisses him. It’s perfect. Even better than Stede could have imagined, if he had tried imagining it as more than an abstract hypothetical. Better than what books and movies and fairytales made him believe, and that’s saying something. It’s mostly lips at first, Ed’s lips, as soft as they look, but then it’s tongues, too, and Ed leads, of course, and Stede follows best he can, one hand in Ed’s curls and one on his back, and he seems to be doing something right—Ed leans into it, deepens the kiss, shifts on top of him until their bodies are pressed together. Oh god. If this is what kissing is always like, he has been missing out all this time.

The best thing about Tuesdays is that my dash is filled with photos of this beautiful man

Happy #taikatuesday to those who celebrate!
I think this pic is from an OFMD online interview. Taika is holding his lower face in his hands, as he is in the other pic I've posted, because of the matchymatchy. I'm generally opposed to his face being covered, only he does have lovely mitts, and it just flags up the eyes. So all good. Sorry for rambling. Photo shoot pic, I think.

Scribbly digital cartoon sketch of season 1 Stede Bonnet wearing his teal suit and cunty little black heels with pink bows. He is reverently holding a tiny model of the Revenge, looking down at it with quiet excitement. There is a splash of pink color behind him setting him apart from the plain white background.

all I want to breathe bizarrelittlemew Summary: Stede accidentally reveals to his coworker, Ed, that he has never had his neck kissed. Ed figures it would be irresponsible of him to let Stede carry on like that.

#TakeTwoTuesday for Midnights at the Revenge, which I’m rereading to do a final little sequel. Please enjoy some angsty fake dating-to pining while fucking-to exes-to lovers. 🌃

If you’re new to it, the first two parts together are one compete story.

Midnights at the Revenge is 147k across both parts, rated E, and features fake dating, sorta enemies to lovers, then exes back to lovers, and all kinds of other craziness. The two existing parts are one complete story - happy ending part 2

welcome to the icelandic world, where ed is nervous. when he finds himself taking a cooking class, it's only the proud stranger who can keep disaster from happening. lucius and buttons are there, too, meeting a tentacle monster.

I couldn't get this out of my head. Had to doodle it to move on with my day. 😆 #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath
Very sketchy comic page featuring Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. Ed is looking at one of those standup signs that are outside stores on the sidewalk. It say's BONNET'S BEAUTS and "ask about our facials". Ed snickers. He looks into the building and sees Stede waving stupidly in Ed's direction while smiling. Ed is immediately heart-eyes. He looks at the sign again, focused on "ask about our facials!" then twiddles his fingers in response to Stede.

deleted scene from my brain you’re real to me
a digital drawing recreating the scene from the dream mentioned in the quoted post. it’s season one ed and stede from our flag means death. ed is “teaching” stede a “sword move” and has him pinned against a wall. there are four speech bubbles that read: ed: and then you can do this lean in with your hips move. stede: oh! ed: Really, uh, distracts your opponent. stede: I see… wow!

OFMD truly is the only show for which we keep getting new content over a year after it was cancelled twice 🫶🏴‍☠️
Extract of a script from Our Flag Means Death S2 E6. The page reads: STEDE: Well, we’re here now. (He looks at Blackbeard for a second, then extends his hand). We never finished our dance. Blackbeard looks at Stede’s hand, a little unsure as to whether or not he should take it. BLACKBEARD: There’s no music. STEDE: There isn’t? I always hear music when I’m around you. Gosh he’s charming. Blackbeard blushes and takes Stede’s hand. As they sway to the imaginary music Stede holds Blackbeard a little closer and gives him a kiss on the forehead. Blackbeard’s eyes brighten. We hear the first instrumental bars of Brice Springsteen’s “I’m on Fire.” The slow rolling percussions pounding like Blackbeard’s heart. He looks up at Stede and gives him a gentle kiss on the lips. As Blackbeard draws back to continue dancing, Stede pulls him for a longer, more passionate kiss. “Tell me now baby, is he good to you? /And can he do to you the things that I do? /Oh no /I can take you higher /Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire” Blackbeard’s head is spinning. He has to sit on the corner of the bed to catch his breath. STEDE (continued): I’m sorr… was that too much? Before he can finish asking, Blackbeard grabs him by the shirt. He pulls Stede down onto him until they’re both lying on the bed. He looks up at Stede. BLACKBEARD (whispers): Again. “At night, I wake up with the sheets soakin’ wet. /And a freight train runnin’ through the middle of my head /Only you can cool my desire. /Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire” Stede smiles. He takes Blackbeard’s face in his hands, taking in the beauty of his features. He gently draws the lines of Blackbeard’s lips with his fingertips. Then he kisses him deeply, pressing his body down into Blackbeard’s as the sounds of the party echo into the room. “Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire / Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire / Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh” EXT. THE REVENGE, DECK - NIGHT Fireworks explode in the sky as the crew of the Revenge continue their celebration into the night.

Y’all, Ed ended up looking like a snack and a half in this drawing I did for @ladypenni.bsky.social

I basically need her to stand over my shoulder every time I draw Ed because 😮‍💨

A digital drawing of Edward Teach from Our Flag Means Death wearing most of his leather outfit, minus a shirt. He has a short beard and long windswept hair. He’s posing with one arm over his head and his jacket hanging off the opposite shoulder. He’s making very hot eye contact with the viewer.
