Verse 3 You said I would be nothing, but look, I'm really something Many arms around the mast as your ship starts cracking Will you see me through the pain? Have you changed? So have I As I fix you in the gaze of my one unblinking eye Do I terrify? [Pre-Chorus] And all of my peers, they had such potential The swamp, it took them down And my love, I have to take I kiss them all and let them drown, oh You didn't see me, just another drunken groupie So when your hand reached out I just pushed you further down Well, do you see me now?

Delighted that Kraken by Florence and the Machine has the Ed Teach vibes we'd hoped for. Do you see me now?!?!

a digital drawing of ed and stede from ofmd. they are both dressed up in halloween costumes. ed is a cat and he’s wearing black and purple ears, a purple collar, a black crop top with purple fuzzy trim, fishnets, tight leather pants, and a cat tail. he has whiskers and a nose painted on his face and is wearing purple lipstick. stede’s costume is sort of an optical illusion. his head is dressed up as a goldfish with scales painted on his face and a fin over his ear. his head is in a fishbowl that looks like it’s resting on a table with a tablecloth and doily. he’s also wearing fishnets. ed is leaning over to kiss stede’s fish bowl, which already has lipstick kiss marks over it.

they won the costume contest and immediately ran off to celebrate

A Victorian-looking illustration of a robin in a snowy setting. I probably had references for where this came from once but alas they are lost.

EPISODE 7: Man on Fire

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're wearing modern warm clothing; coats and scarf and gloves. Ed is resting his chin on Stede's shoulder as he shoves his hands into Stede's coat pockets from behind. Stede is giggling, all crinkly eyes and dimples. The night is cold enough for their breath to show and they're lit from below from a nearby bonfire. They're as sticky toasty sweet as smores.

“There. Much better” Ed whispered softly as he rested his chin on Stede’s shoulder.

Boyfriend's pockets are the best pockets. Ed says so. Got to do an illustration for @watchtheflow.bsky.social's toasty sweet 'Bonfire Night'! 🧡

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

In a small room tucked away in the back of Merperson Flotation Therapy, sprawled across a honeycomb tessellation of white tiles, hair dripping, limbs heavy: Edward Teach is kissing the man he loves. There are several things that don’t make a lick of sense about this. It doesn’t make sense that Ed is on the floor, for starters. He has absolutely no recollection of climbing out of the tank, and yet here he is. (He’s propped himself up on one palm, his legs splayed out in a messy pile behind him. His wrist aches, and it'd maybe ache less if he popped his other hand on the floor too, distribute his weight a bit more evenly, but…nah. Good suggestion, but no, thanks all the same.) (The fingers of Ed’s free hand are in Stede’s hair, so. That hand is not going anywhere.) It doesn’t make sense that everything is blue. Dim, deep, rippling. Ed feels like he’s been tethered beneath the surface of the sea. (It’s the lights from the pod. They must have eased their way back on while Ed’s eyes were closed. They’re on a timer. Sixty minutes. Ed reckons he couldn’t have been in the pod for much longer than thirty minutes. Which means Ed has been kissing Stede for a very, very long time.) (This doesn’t make any sense either. Timer must be broken.) The fact that Ed has just now decided that he’s in love: this, too, does not make any sense. He hadn’t been in love an hour ago, or a day ago, or a week before that. And that’s gotta be a fucking glitch in the human condition, right? That you can just not be in love one moment, and then the next you are? Who the fuck approved that in the design process? (Only…this does, actually, make at least a little bit of sense. That Ed is in love.) (Because it’s slowly dawning on Ed that…maybe he had been in love an hour ago. And a day ago. And a week before that.) (Maybe he just didn’t need to be able to name it to feel it.) There’s one main thing, though, that absolutely does make sense. Complete, exhaustive, faultless, comprehensive…

Did you know Free Space Ed is doing some kissing right now? it's true, you can hear it direct from him if that's your vibe: archiveofourown.org/works/614230...

Cross-stitch in an embroidery hoop of a blue and white porcelain tea cup with gold handle and detailing with the Gentleman Pirate's flag motive of a skull flanked by a dagger and a heart. From inside the teacup waves are rising up carrying a little Revenge. A banner is wrapped around it saying "The Gentleman Pirate" at the top and "kills with kindness" at the bottom.

Finished the #cross-stitch based on @illustoryart.bsky.social 's coloring page
