THANK you I feel like I'm the only centrist on this issue in the entire fandom, it would be great if more of us felt wanted to start speaking up.
are we far enough into post-s2 for me to say i'm a person who a) mainly watches the show for ed/stede, and also b) likes izzy as a character, but also c) am completely fine with his death? are we at the point yet where it's okay to say that, or are we still super polarized?

This for me but with a side of Anne Bonney for femme days.
the ideal gender is something along the lines of edward teach and jim jimenez, sort of in the middle

Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you'll never watch again, and one song you can't stand

- Tripe (tried it once, no thank you)

- Encanto (come at me Disney kids I fucking dare you)

- Shake It Off
Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you'll never watch again, and one song you can't stand

- Eggs (the smell, taste and texture make me heave)

- “Irreversible” (if you’ve seen it, you’ll know why)

- “Muskrat Love” (nails on a chalkboard)
Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you'll never watch again, and one song you can't stand

- Bleu cheese

- Kids (I am deeply scarred by this one let's never speak of this again)

- (braces to be hit by projectiles) Absolutely any of T Swift's song catalogue

Having written an angsty, gun-related Blackhands fic way back when Season 1 ended, I cannot stress enough how I thought I was hallucinating this scene the first time I watched it.
i had a dream about you last night

What the hell, I can still clown with the best of them.

Chapter 20 of the Great Below is up! We are deep-diving in the Gravy Basket so come on over if you want to see Ed grapple with his parent issues!

It took forever for me to finish Chapter 17 of The Great Below, which means I've been sitting on this lovely image by @emmalinestrange.bsky.social, just waiting for the chance to use it. Anyway, come and read this chapter! Stuff happens!

I’m going to be controversial for a second. Ed in season 1 episode 10 with his earring and his terrible overdramatic make up was so hot and I wish we had more of that look
April 15, 2025 at 5:43 PM
So I hear we got confirmation that Ed got the "Trust No One" tattoo between s1 and s2. Curious about how that might have gone? I've got a fic for that!

Trust One, E, Ed/Izzy, 3.7K

I definitely think that's what Izzy thought was happening at some point!
Do you ever think Ed tried to kill Izzy, or tried to get Izzy to commit suicide so they could go into the afterlife together? #EdIzzy

Smutty Steddyhands roleplay fic, anyone?

Yo has anyone written or drawn Izzy riding Stede while holding a knife to
his throat? Cause the image just popped into my head and I don't think I can sleep now.

Edward Teach is just as cringe as Stede Bonnet, he just does it while looking hot in leather with a badass reputation so no one comments on it, I will die on this hill
Also never not losing my mind over the fact that Ed is a fucking NERD oh my GOD that little rope swing kills me every 👏🏻 single 👏🏻 time 👏🏻

I may never have figured out I was non-binary if not for OFMD. Not only because of @vico-ortiz.bsky.social and their amazing performance as Jim, but also the rest of the cast and writers and the warmth, humor and love they brought to the show. It made me believe I could be myself and still be loved.

I saw a Tumblr post that theorized that he told them all they were written in Egyptian hieroglyphs and no one knew enough about Egypt to challenge him on it 😂
He's drawn little pictures on them, like in Stede's journal
February 25, 2025 at 7:53 PM
Just the fact that Ed and Stede's conflict in @david-jenkins.bsky.social's latest update isn't so much "I'm not happy" as "I worry HE'S not happy" means they are leagues ahead of where they were in their previous marriages. They'll be okay, guys. The love is there.

Currently torturing my Youtube algorithm by watching the same 4 year-old The Terror crackvids and nothing else. It keeps desperately shoving new things in my recs to get me to engage with something, anything more relevant, and I just laugh and re-roll Carnivale fire dance remixes for a tenth time.
