At any given time, I'm in the middle of reading a couple dozen #OFMDfics, and they're all excellent, but right now, this one is making me so happy when it updates! I think I'm relating extra hard to Ed struggling with depression and reinventing himself.
Hey, so uhm β¦ how would yβall feel about our (travel) boys finally meeting β¦ ?

This isnβt part of the game, but I just want to yell a little louder about this one, as Iβve never seen it recommended before π
Itβs directly the cause of me starting to write fics πβοΈπ₯

Wants To Be Caught by ClaireGregory Summary: Olympic divers Ed and Stede have been offered the chance to star in a new advertising campaign for a condom company. It's going to provide much needed funding for their aquatic centre programs, but even more importantly, it's going to centre queer love out loud and proud on the international stage for a mainstream audience. All it needs is a little creative magic to turn Stede into a merman, and Ed into the sailor he'll save. For a couple who met at a free condom handout, it's the perfect way to showcase their love, with a few extra doses of silliness.

When they're asked to be mermen for a new condom advertising campaign, Olympic divers Ed and Stede jump at the change (and then, get predictably horny about it).

Rewind, Reply by ClaireGregory Summary: After meeting his diving hero at the Paris 2024 Olympics and falling head over heels in love, Stede Bonnet swore he'd never tell Ed Teach that he used to get off to videos of Ed diving during a tumultuous year of self-discovery. Best laid plans and all that! Turns out, Ed's very, very into that idea. And he's got a plan (of course) of his own, too- one that Stede's more than ready to meet, match, and escalate...

Stede swore he'd never let Ed know that he used to get off to videos of Ed diving. Ed has some thoughts about how appealing that is- and some ideas to try together.

Ordinary Magic by ClaireGregory Summary: It's Valentine's Day in 2025, and Olympic diving sensations Stede and Ed are spending it together for the first time. Very different to the one Stede had in 2023, when his marriage fell apart. Very different to the one Ed had in 2024, convincing himself he was happy alone. Not so different to the time they shared at the Paris Olympics, as they take their love public first, and then private...
