okay this is for you @indarltonitrust.bsky.social and @kellykat53.bsky.social 😂 (I feel like enough happens in this fandom that there could be one of these every month!)
Ant-Man meme where Nyarie (as Ant-Man) asks: "What have I missed over the last 3 weeks?" Luis responds: "Ok so we raised CAD$9,063.08 for Rainbow Railroad in the Adopt Our Crew raffle. Like two more articles were published about OFMD being one of Max's best shows and cancelled too soon. Oh yeah and Max rebranded back to HBO Max lol. Lmao, even. We're still feasting on the chaos of TNUC. Dad temporarily changed his profile picture to him as a catboy from the con." Luis continues: "The top 3 execs at Ketchup open the Kudoboard to save OFMD so tiny clowning. On 4th of July Aaron Epstein from S1 posts a pic of the OFMD flag as "still there" so more tiny honks. The You Only Frame Twice animatic is released and it's amazing. An anonymous source shares a draft of Ed and Stede's first time from Calypso's birthday. We all lose our entire shit. Debates and discourse ensue over whether it's real." Luis continues: "Bruce Springsteen probably wonders why 'I'm on Fire' is suddenly blowing up. Dad confirms that it's real (and talks about bulging parentheticals). We all lose our entire shit TWICE. OFMD hits 38,000 fanworks on AO3. And that's been the last 3 weeks." Ant-Man/Nyarie stares back at him.

I promised lesbians and I deliver lesbians! The first of many lesbian Gentlebeards from the Pearl Heart zine I did last year! Imagine this is Stede scooping up Ed after she defeats that snake and Ed gets to be the damsel for once, hooray!

Digital illustration of a genderswapped Stede Bonnet and Ed Teach as happy lesbians on an alternative adventure date from s01e07 ‘This is Happening’. Stede is wearing a tailored brown excursion suit with a longer skirt portion lined in red with a pair of fetching brown trousers tucked into a pair of leather calf high excursion boots with little white flappy bows for the absolute practicality. She is holding Ed in her arms bridal style as they stand in vibrant green foliage and grasses. Ed is wearing her signature high waisted tear-away leather trousers and biker boots, with a dark red crop top and red nails. Her long grey hair is tossed over her shoulder as she clings to Stede and kisses her passionately. Both are wearing multiple rings and are blushing bright pink.

one thing I really love about treats like this one is that they aren’t exclusive. they aren’t just for the folks who are privileged enough to travel. they aren’t just for cheeky gcs. we all get to share this together—all you need is access to the internet and stumbling across this unhinged corner.

Hi folks! I (Juniper) have independently verified the veracity of this (saw it with my own eyes). As it turns out, this came into the YOFT Instagram account, as a result of the project.

The person who shared it wishes to remain anonymous but I can say that they’re probably in a reasonable… 🧵

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.

A source involved directly with ofmd but who made anonymity a condition of sharing it. I know that isn't a great answer but it's the truth!

A bit of extra info: the source is legit, and they asked to remain anonymous (it was the condition to be able to share this with you all). I was told it’s David’s original vision for this scene. I don’t know why it was changed!

First off we have @fauxtalian.bsky.social, who helpfully jumped in to cover several areas as a pinch hitter. She ended up bringing us hits like emotionally devastating flashbacks, that Jim/Archie kiss and Ye Olde Setting Powder. (Also, we fucked up and left their EdStede frame out - plz admire!)

Hey, important!

Whether you contributed directly to YOFT or not, your contributions to the fandom made this project possible — yes, YOU. Whatever form those take. If you think they don’t matter. They DO. This never could have happened without ALL of you.

It’s about belonging to something, pals

Don't say you "only" did a small part. No matter the amount, you contributed and your part is just as important as anyone else's.

You should be proud of yourself. And I'm proud of you too.
