Edward Teach in season 1 episode 9 of Our Flag Means Desth, wearing his Blackbeard leathers, standing on the main deck of the Revenge protectively in front of Stede out of frame

day 653 of posting a picture of edward teach every day until we save ofmd:

Ed’s heart is pounding, and his stomach is doing somersaults for an entirely new reason. He’s going to fire me. Worse, he’s found me out, and he’s going to fire me and then call the constable. Ed sits, trying to keep his face as impassive and polite as possible. Bonnet takes a deep breath. “You may have noticed that I keep a rather unusual house here, as regards the servants,” he begins. “We are, perhaps, a touch informal.” Ed exhales since this doesn’t seem to be about him. “I have noticed,” he replies. “I hope you do not judge me too harshly—” “I could never, mate,” Ed cuts in quickly. So much for his impassive demeanor. Bonnet hesitates for a moment before pressing on. “The servants are my only company here. Or they were, before you came. When my father’s not in residence, I allow a certain level of familiarity.” He takes a deep breath. “We thought maybe to suspend this tradition while you’re here, but it seems a shame and unfair to the crew, and you’re so kind, so I just thought it might be nice- that is, we thought it might be nice—”

“Hey, slow down.” Bonnet seems to be getting tangled in his thoughts. “The servants are your friends, yeah?” Ed asks. Relieved, Bonnet smiles. “Yes, they are. I dine with them every Sunday. We call it crew dinner.” Blushing furiously, Bonnet clears his throat. “Mr. Teach, I am cordially inviting you to crew dinner on Sunday.” Cordially inviting Ed to dine with the servants, as if he hadn’t done so hundreds of times? Ed is burning to find out more. Which might explain what he says next. “Mate, if you’re going to ask me questions like that, you’d better call me Ed.” Approaching that cliff’s edge once more, Ed can’t resist punctuating his invitation with a wink. Bonnet blushes even more deeply, but he looks enormously pleased. “Then call me Stede.” Ed leans a little closer, dropping his voice conspiratorially. “Do you let the ‘crew’ call you Stede, too?”

Ed is staying in Stede’s home under false pretenses, but he can’t help being charmed when Stede issues a surprising invitation.

Jim catches the photo floating across the module. Nana. Face serious, squinting into the sun, probably looking at her orange trees and wondering how she can make them more of the platonic ideal of fruit. "Your family, question?" Olu asks from his clear protective pod at Jim's side. "She was," Jim says, swallowing back tears. "A lot of light years ago." "Jim know..." Jim stows the photo in their breast pocket and looks down at Olu's rocky form. He's got teal stripes on his appendages that always make Jim smile. "Yeah?" "Olu could be family."

For @ofmdrareships.bsky.social Week, @petrichorca.bsky.social and I have made Our Flag Saves Stars, different short Project Hail Mary AUs starring our beloved crew. First one here: archiveofourown.org/works/835542...

how about a tiny #ofmd #skyfic 🧵 because why not

Ed drifts through the house, a victorian ghost lost, the hours ticking past as the moon keeps vigil. Restless. No longer able to just trace the lines of Stede's face in the darkness. No longer able to just listen to the steady beat of Stede's heart.

heh.

Got this faux gif ❤️

Drawing of Ed from Our Flag Means Death. His eyes are closed and his eyebrows are drawn tight, but he's smiling a little as his hair is loose and whipping around his head on the wind. He knows he looks good. He'll worry about the knots later. And Stede is really gentle with a comb.

Sometimes every strand is a slut strand. Here's a piece that's three years old today! 🧡 #TakeTwoTuesday #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

ed half-hiding under a blanket on the couch talking to stede, saying "then expecting me to just melt back into your arms"

spongebob text meme that says "several days later..."

ed & stede embracing and kissing up against a wall

Edward Teach in season 2 episode 4 of Our Flag Means Death, wearing his Blackbeard leathers with cuts and bruises all over his face, sitting on an armchair on Anne and Mary’s front porch and holding out a joint as he hacks his lungs out

day 651 of posting a picture of edward teach every day until we save ofmd:

in a fic called "i'm a terrible pirate.", ed and stede are discovering new things about themself with karl the seagull. it's a house md au, guest starring oluwande and frenchie.

I love today's theme. I find that so often what people look to read from rare ships is one-shot smut fics that don't really include romance - and I love that we're intentionally saying "Let them be in love!! With each other, specifically!!"
