i really like how stede's subconscious manifests in izzy and ed's in captain hornigold and how differently they deal with them.
stede kills izzy when he confronts him with the reality of stede leaving ed, but hornigold kills ed when he finally starts to gain a bit of will to live.
stede's still in denial regarding their breakup and ed is still struggling with self-love

I think there's kind of a Good Omens/OFMD parallel when it comes to The Kiss/The Deed (LOL I don't know what to call it) (respectively). Like, The Kiss of GO wasn't purely for love. We know they love each other, but that kiss had desperation, anger, defeat, and it wasn't consensual; it was forced on Aziraphale. The Deed (again, I am so sorry please don't come at me) of OFMD was after Stede PURPOSEFULLY kills someone for the first time. Stede uses Ed as a way to get his feelings about killing out of his system. He isn't gentle. He grabs Ed and pushes him against a wall. He may be hopped up on adrenaline so it may not be anger, but this is rough and Ed has expressed his desire to go slow and really loves when Stede is soft with/to him. Stede needs to place this energy somewhere and unfortunately he uses Ed to do this. Ed seems to consent; there is a little head nod while Stede pauses to (hopefully) gain consent. But it still doesn't feel like this is the right time; it isn't purely an act of love. This isn't Stede saying "I love you". This isn't even "omg we just got tortured and branded. Let me take care of you and show that you're safe with me". Ed recognizes this and that's a reason I think he tells Stede that it was a mistake.
I'm sure there's more and I could go in depth and be more intricate with my thinking, but I JUST finished watching and need to scream into the void about everything because I have no one IRL to talk to. I love run on sentences xoxo.

***OFMD SEASON2 SPOILERS***
I'm a mer-Stede defender! I loved that scene. I understand why a some found it "cringe" but I love the idea of a middle aged man envisioning the light of his life as a beautiful, mythical creature he once hoped to me massaged to death by
