Ed Ofmd - Tumblr Posts
A little sneak peak of my newest sketch 💕 I love this emotionally unstable man
I know we’re probably going to have a really angsty reunion between Ed and Stede which is going to hurt but be so good when they finally forgive each other and get back together but imagine how funny it would be if Stede comes back, explains what happens and asks if Ed will forgive him and take him back and with not much hesitation Ed just goes “Yeah okay”
Izzy is in the background absolutely fuming and you just hear him go “What the FUCK”

yr locked in a room alone with three adult men but you feel perfectly safe. who are they
I keep thinking back to s1e5 of ofmd. Mainly because of what happens between/with stede and ed during this episode.
Like, imagine you're going to be hanging around a crowd that you have been used to from birth. They aren't a very nice crowd but you've learned nifty tricks and stuff throughout your time living with them. You've learned the way of these people, how to live with them.
But as you're going to be hanging around this crowd, you also have this friend. This friend that you know doesn't have the same exact experience you do around this specific crowd. So you want to show this guy the ropes, help them along. You get to be the cool guide today where this person had been the cool guide for you to other things you were less experienced in.
And as you're hanging around this crowd, you get kinda pushed and shoved around. See, you never got along well with these people.
But then your friend, remind you who doesn't have the same exact experiences you do and doesn't fully know their way around like you just- hits it off with these people. They hit it off with the people it took you YEARS to learn to fit in with/maneuver around. These people who repeatedly, over the yeard, have kicked you off any tiny podium made of the small amount of pride you had in yourself for wven trying to learn how to *survive* in this crowd.
You learn your friend doesn't need much help in this.
So, pretty hurt by this, you back up and let this guy do his thing.
You want to be angry at this friend, because how could they. How could they get along so easy with these people you worked your ass off to get along with. How could it come so easy for them when for you it took years and honestly you only did it to stay alive and make it around the world. How could it be like this.
But you also want to be proud. You want to be proud of your friend because they're managing so well, even without your guidance now, and - despite all odds considering different experiences - seem to be getting along just fine.
BUT later your friend stumbles up to you. They've wound up beaten and broken down by this crowd who, time and time again, never failed to disappoint in getting the job done - the job of putting down those who work so fucking hard just to get by.
What do you do? Do you get pissy at this person. Do you just avoid speaking to them? What do you do?
Despite all odds, despite how angry Stede could've reacted, Stede doesn't go off on him, doesn't treat him with even slight anger.
He just- helps him get through this. By using one of his little tricks he's learned along the way.
And, of course, the way his friend is so baffled and amazed is totally worth it. He probably couldn't help but feel prideful- not even just because his friend is amazed but because this crowd - who continused to just treat people like shit and put them down more than they already had been - has experienced the karma they deserve.
Stede could've been angry. Against all emotions and reasoning for them, he wasn't. He was kind and tried to help his friend get by through using one of his nifty tricks. Instead he said, "oh it's my time to shine" rather than being "oh you want my help? no way."
Whether this was simply because he cares abt his friend and he was just kinda like "fuck this isn't fair" or rather because he could empathize with this lost fellow who didn't quite know what to do and how to handle this crowd- we wont ever truly know the complete, honest and exact reasoning behind it, but I just think this was a nifty little moment. Rather than reacting, Stede resorted to sorting it all out.
I just think- yk this is a cool little thing idk idk :)
to celebrate ofmd2 content today here's a drawing of ed from last year
don't mind me I'm making a time machine to go back in time and give ed liquid eyeliner
I theorise that this season blackbeard's crew specifically goes after wedding boats, beach side weddings, and generally any boat that has a couple that looks happy on it. his metaphorical ship has sunk and you know he's gonna take the whole rest of the ocean with him
as much as I am an ed enjoyer I am a stede relater do you get what I mean
ed but it's crappy cat theory because I heard someone call him a wet cat once
omg sad gay ppl
ed as a selkie <3
(lineless version)
This makes me happy :)
absolutely love everyone who acknowledges ed's knee! it really means so much!!!!! i'm sure this was posted here somewhere but it makes me so :)
