Hey folks, with #OurFlagGetsLow just having happened I'd love to remind folks that there is a Ned Low archive on AO3, and I'd love to see y'all add your works here!
I'll go through and check for any new additions as well 😁 If you have something added, feel free to DM me to poke me to approve it!
Ned thinks the "Breaking of Blackbeard" is imminent. Edward realizes with dismay that he can't even remember the last time he got to suck dick. Consent being muddled would an understatement—the power dynamics might somehow be even less clear.

heyo all. for #OurFlagGetsLow I'd like to share one of the stories I've written that I'm most proud of.
Interior of Stede's cabin, at his bed nook, dimly lit by the setting sun. Ned is walking past the curtain, looking around warily. Behind the curtain is Stede, peering over his shoulder at Ned, smirking.
Here's a scenario: Ned tries a different tactic to get at Blackbeard (sneak on board and strike at his boyfriend). But Stede is a little more evil and things go...not as Ned planned...
(a fun #gentlefiddle smutty art series, linked below)
#OurFlagGetsLow
Closeup of Ned’s hands behind his back, relaxed and palms out, loosely bound together with a red ribbon tied in a bow.
all pretty with a bow and everything 😊
#OurFlagGetsLow
Very loose sketch of New Low playing the violin and having smoke billow out from around his form turning into the long fingered hands at the end of the smoke
#OurFlagGetsLow Is Ned Low playing to expel the demons or summon them?
Ned is kneeling on the floor, wearing nothing but panties and stockings. He's tied in a rope harness that resembles a corset, with ropes also keeping his arms bound behind him and rope in his mouth as a gag.
put ned in a corset but make it shibari 🤭
#OurFlagGetsLow #ofmdnsfw
Ned is facing a wall, head turned back over his shoulder. He is wearing a lacy collar, lacy fingerless gloves, a corset, and lace-lined panties, with garters holding up lace-edged stockings. His face is faintly flushed and the laces on the corset are being pulled tight by someone off-screen.

#OurFlagGetsLow
Meme of woman holding a man and pointing threateningly at another woman, but with text over all of them, so it's 'Ned Low' as the man being held, 'Stede' as the woman pointing, and 'Ned dying at the end of S2E6' being pointed at.

#OurFlagGetsLow
Ned and Stede face each other in profile, with Ned tied to a post, hands behind his back. There are ropes at his wrists and shoulders and across his chest. He's gagged and blindfolded, with the blindfold tied around the post, keeping his head in place. His face is flushed red. Stede sits in front of him, smirking, one knee pressed up against Ned's crotch.
let's spice it up a bit, yeah? stede can bully ned a little, as a treat 😈
#OurFlagGetsLow #gentlefiddle #ofmdnsfw
Ned Low from OFMD with his face almost completely submerged in black water. His eyes are slightly wall eyed to help showcase his complete disassociation in the moment as the black inky water slowly seeps into his mouth and eyes.
For #OurFlagGetsLow - I suppose it still counts as another bath image.
I think he is feeling just fine...
Both he and I got a little lost in the sauce and missed our target goal but here are, still breathing.
Looking for romance? What about Ned kissing Izzy’s toes like he’s a gentleman kissing the back of a woman’s hand?

#ofmd #ofmdfic #ofmdfanfic #NedLow #OurFlagGetsLow
Ned and Stede are leaning in to each other, eyes closed and head tilted in an open-mouthed kiss. Stede's hand is on the back of Ned's neck and Ned's hand in resting on Stede's neck.
consider: what if...perhaps, stede and ned kissed with tongue
#gentlefiddle #OurFlagGetsLow
Stede Bonnet in just stockings being ridden by Ned Low - also in just stockings. Stede is covered in hickeys, bites, and scratchmarks
I heard it was #ourflaggetslow and since I am predictable - I got excited but didnt make anything new for it - so please enjoy this kinktober piece from last year!

Closeup of Ned in profile, facing down. His eye is wide and mouth slightly open. Blood is dripping from his mouth, his nose, and down his face. There's blood in his hair, splattered on his cheek, and on his collar.
Ned is leaning back on a couch, eyes closed. He's shirtless, with bandages up his torso. One arm is resting on his stomach, bicep bandaged, the other resting beside him, forearm bandaged. There's a path on one shoulder and one on his cheek, and he has a black eye. Stede's torso is just visible behind the couch, one hand resting on Ned's head.
