Check out these fantastic little guys @edteachsbadknee.bsky.social drew for me! I requested Ed and Stede as little guys you might find hanging out in a medieval haggadah and just look at them, they're intertwined 🥹💙

Ed and Stede as little medieval marginalia guys. They both have vaguely lionish back legs/paws and long necks that are twisted around each other. They're looking very fondly at each other. They also have bonus faces on their tails that are wearing hoods and look pretty happy to be there. There's a little flower design underneath Ed, a sun beneath Stede, and a sun between their faces.

I picked today's #TakeTwoTuesday because it just had a fic birthday & because I think we could all use some soft blanket fort time 💞

I have a single photo from that moment and I treasure it lol

This flower finally bloomed in a basket that's just been stems and leaves all season 🌺

A yellow flower with a wine purple center that I'm pretty sure is a pansy in a hanging basket planter with lots of leaves around it.

The same flower from behind. You can see blue sky and clouds in the background and the sunlight shining through the petals and leaves of the plant.

I also removed the cannons to install a library but that obviously requires additional pieces 😆

Lego Ed and Stede sitting in armchairs in the pirate ship. Ed is reading a book with a wolf (bunny) watching and Stede is holding a cup of tea. The chairs are next to a table with a teapot and a small bookcase.

If you want you can rearrange the ☠️ into a cat flag! (I can't claim credit for the design, I got it from someone on the bird app ages ago. I think someone figured out how to do Frenchie's s2 cat too?)

The sail of a Lego pirate ship with a black cat image made from rearranging the pieces that make a skull and crossbones on the original set, and adding a red stud for the tongue.

Today's #TakeTwoTuesday is also a transparent excuse to reshare the art @rocketlollyart.bsky.social did for it because I think we could all benefit from seeing Them again 💐👑💜
