🧵It’s #OFMD Prompt from a Song! A weekly prompt to inspire fic, fanart, titles, scenes, vibes, shower thoughts – anything! Check the quote posts to see past prompts.
Alt: Frenchie is shown strumming a lute. He smiles softly. He is shown against a deep teal background. In an orange, Art Nouveau font are the words: Prompt from a Song (a weekly OFMD prompt from songs I like). This is a screencap of the moment in S1E8 right before Frenchie gets tackled by an English soldier. The background of the screencap is faded out, obscuring it, showing only Frenchie and his lute. Technically, Buttons’ bare backside as he runs up the stairs on the right side of the frame is in the image, but it’s faded so it can’t be seen.

My family gave me the plague, so I will be less around while I recover. In the meantime, please have one more bump on my holiday fic while it's still relevant. ❤️

Ed is stuck at the office, marked as essential staff for the last day before Bonnet Industries closes for the holidays. It's fine. He can do anything. But when a power outage leaves him trapped with Stede, the day takes a definite turn for the weird. #OFMDfic

[ID: Title card for Holiday Bonus created by latinkraken: Title card is in the likeness of a discount coupon. It has a red border and to the left the image is a ribbon tied in a holiday bow surrounded by gold glitter. The background is a bright white. All the font is in a red that matches the border. The title "Holiday Bonus" is in all-caps, large rounded font. Below that is "By LyraTalise" Next line: 3K - Rated T, then, "Not an Xmas fic" In a red-bordered box are the words: For: Edward Teach, and in a box below that: Valid for 10% off at Lighthouse Casual Bistro. The 10% has been scratched out with an X in black ink and the restaurant name has been circled twice with a stylized exclamation point next to it. Under that is "warm wishes" in script and "Bonnet Industries" in block letters. Industries has been scribbled out in black ink and a small heart drawn next to Bonnet. End ID]

Christmas pool hustling is everything you never knew you needed! 😌🎅

#OFMDfanart #OFMD
A digital drawing of Stede Bonnet and Edward Teach from Our Flag Means Death. Ed is standing behind Stede, positioning him to shoot a pool ball. He has one hand on Stede’s left wrist and another on his right hip. Stede is bent over the pool table, holding the cue, smirking. Stede is wearing a blue Christmas sweater with snowflakes on it and jeans. Ed is wearing a white shirt with rolled sleeves and a red plaid vest. There are three pool balls off to the side with numbers 1, 4, and 3 displayed. There are haphazardly strung Christmas lights in the background.

This one has taken me several hours. So many sounds to find, layering and building sounds out of other bits of sound, decisions about music and timing, but I really enjoyed making it 🥰

i’ll have you know that the cravat stays ON at all times due to its incredible multipurpose use, be it a blindfold, a gag, or a very convenient way to drag your husband forward and make his big, brown beautiful eyes go wide right before you kiss him senseless

I love putting together end of year art posts just because I love seeing how I grew and changed over the year. My color palette definitely got deeper and warmer in the second half of the year.

Anyway, here are my favorite Stedes from 2025

Illustration of kraken ed teach inspired by the Florence and the machine song ‘kraken’. Colors are blue and deep purple with gold accents. he’s faced away with his back visible and he’s looking over his shoulder toward the viewer. His eyes and tattoos glow gold, with a tattoo reading ‘do you see me now’ on his back partially obscured by his hair. His tentacles are swirling up behind him. A rope is loosely twisting around his arm with golden drops of blood dripping from his fingers

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're both wearing frilly pastel shirts with little heart lace around the cuffs. Ed is holding Stede around the nape. Stede is kissing Ed's other hand. They're touching foreheads and no one in the history of the world has ever made touching foreheads more gross with love.
