Where It's Warmest

Lazy innkeepers’ mornings 🏴‍☠️

If you have any fluff ideas, you can text me and I’ll try to sketch it! I need to practice and sometimes I don’t have any thoughts.

s1 was stede's journey, s2 was ed's journey. s3 would have been a journey for the both of them together and navigating their lives as a unit. i will forever be angry

Stede: He probably thinks I'm a fool, Blackbeard. I'm a terrible pirate. Ed: Ah, c'mon. Y'know most of the pirates I know? They're dead. So you're doing a hell of a lot better than them.

I love that Stede has been struggling with being a "good pirate" for weeks and Ed's measure of a good pirate is "still alive."

And y'know what? He's right.

I am sooooooo normal about Stede and Ed hahahahahahahahahah I prommise!!! *explodes*

I am not over (and probably never will be) these two parallels. And no one talks about it enough, so I had to draw it (forgot to post it, surprise) for my own sanity. Does it help? Absolutely not, not at all.

Let's talk about it for a bit, okay?

The first drawing is the scene from the end of the 4th episode of the 1st season, right after Ed's and Izzy's (first mate at the time) conversation about plans with Stede, the full crew of the Revenge, and the future. We can see Ed's expression and OH BOY. He is hiding under the mask of Blackbeard to survive. He is exhausted, bored, empty and so done being "The dreadful pyrate Blackbeard". He just wants to be Ed, who fancy fine fabrics and sweet and soft things. It's completely opposite to Izzy's expression, who is behind him and smiling, clearly delighted by Blackbeard's persona and his great plans. On top of it all, the song "The empty boat" by Caetano Veloso playing in the background (I love love love this song), and it fits so well with Ed's emotions.

The second drawing is the scene from the 1st episode of the 2nd season, right after Ed and Frenchie (now first mates) spoke about future plans. Ed let himself be soft and got hurt because of it. Now he's trying to be Blackbeard again, trying to fit in some "norms" of "manly man," trying to survive in a world where liking soft and being soft means dead, and he is failing miserably. He is everything he doesn't want to be. Also, even Stede's name is not mentioned, you know it's all about him. Ed is hurt, tired, and heartbroken. Ed is not the only one who see this. Basically, the whole crew can see how unstable he became after coming back to Blackbeard/ The Kraken persona. Frenchie´s expression shows it all. He stands behind him on his right side, the same spot where Izzy stands in S1. But his expression completely different from Izzy's - sad, afraid, unsure. Once again on top of the scene, the song "Pygmy Love Song" by Francis Bebey (one of my favourite songs from S2) perfectly shows all Ed's emotions.

I am so sorry for this long, boring post. I simply LOVE these two scenes and everything about them, and I needed to share my thoughts with you. I hope it makes sense and my grammar is not too bad.

My favorite thing across fandoms is that there is not a single guy named Edward that is okay at all even a little bit

[honeysweethol]

ed owns bunny wolf slippers, i know this in my heart

Lil modern Ed wip, inspired by NY Street fashion photography. I'm still backpacking (currently in Bahol) so enjoy a grainy ass photo of the babygirl in question.

It occurs to me I haven't drawn this guy in his canon leathers that much... should probably fix that.

What a bummer that Stede is technically 'dead' in Barbados. No parading around the super-hot leatherdaddy (who calls him 'zaddy' and middle-fingers all rules and mores of acceptable levels of PDA) in a much deserved in-your-face-haters glow-up tour.

Yeah, so it's Ed again. He's just so lovely and the show is so lovely. I miss my safe space ship.
