Ed Teach standing in the captain’s cabin in his leathers and his hair in a messy bun. He’s speaking to Frenchie as he tidies up (Season 2 episode 2 of Our Flag Means Death).

Ed Teach standing in profile near the door of the captain’s cabin, he’s in his leathers and has his hair in a messy bun. His head is tilted down and his slut strands hang down the side of his face. (Season 2 episode 2 of Our Flag Means Death.)

Very potato quality pic of Rhys Darby wearing a blue tee, a black pirate type hat with red fabric embellishment and holding a glass of white wine. He looks menacing in a polite way.

Tried to message you, but it says you can’t be messaged? Happy to chat if you’re still looking for a collab. 😊

Celebrating talk like a pirate day by speaking with kindness, humour and earnestness to everyone I interact with today, just like pirate dad taught me 🥰🏴‍☠️ #ofmd

Hi all - it's done! I've finally finished my Reverse Big Bang Story, inspired by the gorgeous artwork of @samikelsh.bsky.social. 😊 Thank you @ofmdreversebigbang.bsky.social, and everyone reading, and sharing OFMD love! 🥰💖 archiveofourown.org/works/67221466

Profile doodle of Ed in his leather jacket with his pulled hair up in a messy bun, slut strands flying free and pointy earring dangling (the look from S2E3). The coloring is messy, a bleeding watercolor style. The background is a blend of blotchy pink and purple. A white heart frames Ed's head like a halo, his big baby cow eyes are cast skyward, a beatific smile on his face. He looks angelic. He looks like he's never done a thing wrong in his life. He's about to snap.

Another Long Day, another stress doodle. Why are my stress doodles always either Ed or cats?
(trick question -- they're the same thing)

Our Flag Means Death Reverse Big Bang 2025 story slide. It has a black background, title and links in fuschia pink and white text. On the left is a watercolour picture of Stede and Ed in the boat-shaped gondola of a hot air balloon. Stede is standing at the stern, wearing a white shirt and teal trousers and waistcoat, holding a telescope. Ed is sitting near the bow, wearing purple and holding a map over the side of the gondola. The gondola itself is shaped like the body of a ship. It is striped red, yellow, red, and the yellow is hung with green and orange ribbon. There is a tiny white flying horse at the very bow edge. Strings vanish from the edge of the gondola straight up to where the balloon must be. The sky is blue. Stede and Ed are smiling peacefully.

The penultimate (I think!) chapter of my Reverse Big Bang fic Borne Before the Wind is now posted - the lads finally get to fly. 😊

And one day I will edit the Title Card and the Prologue into Chapter One, so it doesn't do that pesky thing where the chapter numbers don't match up - I didn't think of that when I started. Please bear with...!

Think this was from an early draft. It’s real.

Really wanted I’m On Fire in there. Verrrrry $$$ song tho and S2 budget was tight.

Also have no idea how that bulging parenthetical got in there, hate those 😅🫠

Love that this is out there enjoy 💜

Sometimes I think about how Stede, before the events of OFMD, would sit outside his bungalow, staring longingly at his model ship, wishing for someone to sit with him and talk about pirate stuff.

I've done it! I've posted the first chapter of my RBB story! A new chapter each weekend in July. :)
It's fairly gentle whimsy, and I hope you like it.
There is also lovely whimsical art.

This was the first day we shot Taika as Blackbeard.

He still couldn’t decide if he wanted to do a different voice or not. I suggested that it’s funnier if his normal voice came out of a biker looking guy dressed like the Road Warrior

As someone said prior, the only reason Greta got released is because people were very loud about her specifically. There are still 8 other flotilla members detained, apparently without fresh water in bedbug infested prison. They all deserve to be fought for, too.

Roach did it!! ❤️ #ofmd
