I imagine anyone who wants to read these old rude books has already bought them, but if not then a few more sales would be incredibly helpful this month 😰 Pay whatever you want £1+ for most of them, and my favourite about cute Victorian boys in corsets is free!

Drawing of Ed from Our Flag Means Death. He's sitting on a rock and resting his arm on a fallen log. He's surrounded by foliage. He's bumping noses with a brown rabbit (a wolf!) and stroking its cheek. It's a melancholy moment, but also quiet and calm and it's nice that they had each other as new best friends for a little while.

(I don't think I would have ever finished this piece had it not been adopted. Thank you to super kind @grumpyk2.bsky.social for giving me reason to brave my feels and revisit this one.)

First ancient adopted sketch is finished! This one plagued me for years. As do most my abandoned sketches of them. Thank you to wonderful Kelly for the extra push to revisit it! 🥹

If you're interested in adopting my ancient sketches send me a DM! 🧡 #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

A digital drawing of Stede Bonnet and Edward Teach from Our Flag Means Death. Behind them is the sun setting at the horizon. Stede is kneeling in front of Ed, holding a ring box. Ed is delightedly giggling with his hands near his face.

Ed’s been around, ok? He’s traveled, he’s been places, he’s seen things.

He’s never had a day as perfect as this one 😍

Stede stabbed me once. I had to make him do it. He's so fragile.

Post image Summary:

    “...Mr Teach?”

    “Mm-hm. Says right here, the substitute that covered your class yesterday was an Ed Teach.”

    Stede laughs out loud.

    “You mean to tell me,” he says, “that the substitute’s full, government name was Education Teach?”

    “Edward, I’d expect,” says Lucius, giving Stede a look ordinarily reserved for the particularly dim-witted.

    (Or: Stede has taken one day off. ONE. His classroom is a complete disaster. Who the fuck IS this Ed Teach? He can suck eggs in hell, as far as Stede is concerned. A modern-day enemies-to-lovers teacher AU, because the author is deeply self-indulgent and needed it to happen)

“Right,” Stede had said stiffly. “Well, no fractions, no phonics, no nature walk. I’d imagine storytime was a wash too, then?”

This, unfortunately, had turned out to be entirely the wrong thing to say.

Because the classroom, once again, had erupted into whatever you might call the exact opposite of ASMR. 

“No way!” Jayce had protested, downright affronted. “Storytime was the best!”

“He was a pirate!” Mei had hollered again, looking insulted that Stede clearly wasn’t giving this the attention it deserved. 

“He told us pirate stories! Real pirate stories. He didn’t even use a book!”

“Yeah! He told us this story about this guy, and he was gouging an eyeball out of this other guy's skull–”

Instantly queasy, Stede had been forced to interrupt.

“Oh, I'm gonna stop you there, Aoife,” he’d said, a tad desperately. “A classroom is…not really an appropriate setting for skull-talk.”

Unfortunately, the children had been unperturbed by this.

“There was this other guy, and he used to torture people!” one of them crowed, with a disconcerting sense of glee. “He had this fiddle, and he used people's guts to–”

“And then! There used to be this pirate, and he'd make people walk the plank! And then they'd fall into the ocean! And die! To death!”

“He taught us about flaying! And flogging!”

“Mr Bonnet, what’s a keelhaul?”

“Right,” Stede had said stiffly. “Well, no fractions, no phonics, no nature walk.

Apropos of nothing, we just want to take a moment to love and appreciate Edward Teach's wig.

I will never get over the bravery it took for Ed to kiss Stede in Season 1. The inner dialogue just before that moment must have been insane.

I love it so much!! I am a long time unicorn and cat devotee, and I’ve recently become fixated on crochet, so this cat hat is perfect

With any luck, you’ll get pictures of four cats wearing it!! Though I might have to just gently place it somewhere on top of the most volatile one

A graphite drawing of Stede and Ed from Our Flag Means Death on sepia paper. They are pictured from the waist up and are standing side by side, Stede slightly behind Ed. Stede is on the left, and Ed is on the right. They are both gazing at someone out of frame. Ed looks suspicious or hesitant, and Stede has a quizzical expression.

Crew - I know we are still coming down from the bidding wars, but looking for a *completed* fic along the same lines as Fallow Land - just a solid read start to finish with a fresh take on Ed/Stede. Any comps?
