💜🏴‍☠️✨ HAPPY FRIDAY, ZADDIES [x] ✨🏴‍☠️💜

[celluloidbroomcloset]

No, y'know what? I love Season 2. I thought there was nothing wrong with Season 2 until I saw folks on here complaining about Season 2. I don't even care about the changes they might or might not have had to make, or the occasional pacing issues (Season 1 has pacing issues too, in places, but it's still great!).

THIS was the season that changed me. THIS was the one that made me go "huh, I need to think more about who I am."

Really tired of all the various caveats of "if only..." and "well, if Max hadn't..." and "this plot would've worked better..."

No. I love it. If it has to end there, I'm glad that's where it ends. I'd love to have more, but this worked so fucking well.

I love Season 2.

Had a rough day today, so to get away from thoughts I drew my beloved retired captains 💜 Love them and all of you and your kind words, that keeps me going!

Edward Teach coined the word "zaddy" back in the 1700s, actually

Ed: "Love it Zaddy"

Later that night:

*Stede desperately trying to look up what Zaddy means in a dictionary with no luck*

"LUCIUS, LUCIUS! Come here! What's a Zaddy!? Ed won't tell me!"

And they lived happily ever after x

og write/creator: yeah these two ppl absolutely hate each other, just like pure loathing, that's their arch nemesis right there and they've been actively trying to kill each other since they met like they just genuinely hate each other so much-

A sixteen year old girl with daddy issues and a new hyper fixation: no for much longer they won't :)

Anyway, I think about how Ed tries to gush over the teeny tiny Revenge and Izzy keeps pushing him and pushing him until he finally goes off about being bored and how maybe he should try dying and then he…goes to sit and look at Stede. Listens to Stede’s hallucinations. Wonders who Mary is. Tells Lucius to bring him a cold cloth to bring down Stede’s fever.

Ed is upset and unmoored and the place he goes to be safe and calm is sitting on Stede's bed, taking care of Stede.

(There's also something very powerful in the fact that we immediately get to know Blackbeard as a gentle person.)

stede saying “im fairly sure we’re not the only ones who want to live forever” right after ed just made everyone in that room want to be put out of their misery
