I mainly talk about Our Flag Means Death. If that's your thing too, then welcome aboard 🫡 🏴‍☠️. I also try to write about OFMD, aka a bit of fan fiction, JeffsButtons, over on AO3. She/her, Gen Xer, still figuring things out.

A thread of words about OFMD by me... aka a bit of fan fiction.

Insomnia leads to some very strange places 🫣. Just going to read some OFMD fic to banish some of the other stuff until I fall asleep 😴 😀

I also love this shot and how happy watching the scene for the first time made me ❤️. Look at Pete's face!!

For me personally, this is an easy question to answer. This is always the first shot that springs to mind.

This should actually be 156, 657 words now. Most of them make up Something To Talk About. Boy, do I miss writing that fic so much! Being lost in that little world.

Thanks again for the comments, kudos and encouragement I've been given this year ❤️. First time I've written in a long time.

I've published 146,545 words this year. Not too bad since I only started writing in Feb. All for #OFMD. I'm not sure how much fic I've read, but I've loved every word. Highlights for me are the interactions with people writing brings & @happydaiz.bsky.social recording the pod fic of Regarding Stede.

Ok now do AO3 Wrapped. 🤲🤲🤲

How much did you write this year—or read?
Is there an ao3 related memory that sticks out to you?
A favorite fic find, or a chapter you’re extra proud of?
Brag on yourself a little. For me. 💕

I used a sexy prompt generator and wrote a sweet little T-rated snuggling fic. Enjoy!

Thanks for your service!

And of course Ed convinced himself that Jack was reaching out, that he actually wanted to spend some part of Christmas with Ed. Of course Ed was not surprised when he walked in on that, not really.

Ed and Stede (OFMD). Gut stabbed battle robed Stede in his auxiliary wardrobe admiring a pair of autumn vibe copper silk breeches. Ed in full leathers enjoying the view.

Forever thinking about Edward Teach's slutty little waist 😍
Edward Teach's slutty little waist. From behind, he's wearing black trousers and a chain 'belt'. He is naked from the waist up and showing his 'Trust No One' tattoo and his curves.

For this #TakeTwoTuesday, can I please offer Take My Foliage Away.

Ed runs away to become a fisherman and gets caught up in quite an unusual raid.

This was so much fun to write, and I hope it will be fun to read too.

After crying a little at their mention in that Top 100 Kisses video I needed to share some of my favorites I've drawn. I love their first on-screen one so much. It's so soft and earnest. #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath
Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. Ed is wearing his timeout sack and collar. Stede is wearing the red cursed suit frilly shirt. Stede is clutching Ed's waist while Ed cups Stede's face. They're heatedly kissing in moonlight, not taking it quite as slow as they did in the show. Six illustrated panels of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're sharing a first kiss. A series of drawings of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're close crops on Stede kissing Ed's forehead, wrist, palm, knuckles. The last is of Ed's hand over Stede's on his chest. Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. Stede is holding Ed's face with one hand and kissing his forehead. Ed's eyes are closed. He's smiling as he touches Stede's hand on his face.

Rough night with the ❤️. I'm OK, just bleurgh. Also, am trying not to make it my whole personality, but failing I guess. I'm no medical expert, but only one thing for it...

So, it now looks as if I'll be spending New Year's Eve with the dog (and cat if she feels like it). I'm not too bothered, to be honest. Just want to quietly usher 2025 out the door and see if we can work something out with 2026.
