gonna have to write a gentlebeard piercing shop meet-cute

Measured in letters, not syllables. Please do *not* put your deadname in the tags, I don't want to know that

also if that's how ed talks sober imagine what happens after getting some wine in him. tipsy stede giving tipsy ed physically impossible heart eyes while ed talks for 2 hours straight.

*SIGHS*

Another AO3 app that's pretending to be official when it's not (or at least isn't making it clear its unofficial.) They're using AO3's name and logo, and embedding ads.

There is no official AO3 app

Someone else is gathering your data, potentially your log in information etc and making use of it how they please. (They say they're not but their privacy policy says otherwise)

They are making money from the ads without the fic writer's consent.

They've also rated it Pegi 3 (which is ludicrous)

Please, even if you care about nothing else, for the safety of your data, please don't use this app. Certainly don't give it your AO3 log in details.

I've told AO3 that it's infringing on its copyright. I will be requesting they remove access of my work as I do not consent to my creative content being used to generate ad revenue for them.

I will be reporting it as incorrectly rated.

The only email address I can find is [email protected] which is included in their privacy policy, and [email protected] as their developer.

Heya, loves! 💜💛 Here's a small treat for you this cozy sunday morning: just Ed and Stede being all soft and kissy.

History of Step

What is Stepping?

What is Step?

Stepping or step dancing is “a percussive dance in which the participant’s body is used to produce complex rhythms and sounds through a mixture of footsteps, spoken word, and hand-claps,” writes the African American Registry.

Step has its origins in Africa, as dancing has been a large part of traditional African culture for centuries.

Calling Step a "bizarre silent dance without music" has to be one of the wilder antiblack racist descriptions I've ever heard of stepping lmao. Anyway if you see the video, it's step!!! They're stepping!! It's a Black American form of dance!!

Top Stede gives me life 🥵

“Our Newfound Love” by tabbystardust [AO3]

Stede has never been with a man before. Ed is going to be very gentle with him.

Top Stede gives me life 🥵

Bikie au nonsense~

(ID in alt and under cut)

ID: 1. Close up of Ed and Stede as modern day bikies. Visible between their heads, stalking angrily away, is Izzy, wearing dark grey jeans and a black tee shirt under a spiked leather. There is a large skull patch on the back with an x tattoo on the cheekbone with a patch above identifying him as “The Hand”. He is wearing one glove, has a wallet and chain in his back pocket, and has a snake tattoo winding around his right arm that turns into rope at his wrist, a barbed wire tattoo around his left bicep, and ‘daddy’ in cursive script on his right shoulder. In the foreground, Stede , wearing a bright blue leather jacket, glares after Izzy’s retreating back, cheeks puffed out in anger. Ed, wearing a spiked black leather jacket with aviator sunglasses pushed up onto his head, is turned to look at him, smiling easily as he says “Aw, don’t mind Izzy. He’s a pom, he can’t help it.”

2. Ed, in a purple tee shirt, usual tattoos, fingerless gloves, and lightwash jeans with a tino rangatingatanga belt buckle, stands casually with arms crossed as he gazes at Stede’s butt. He asks, “So, you know how to ride this thing?” Stede, wearing a bright blue leather jacket and cords, obliviously leans over his custom teal bike, which is covered in various stickers, has tassels hanging from the handles, and features a small wooden unicorn statue bolted to the headlight. Stede has one hand happily beeping the horn and the other absently turning the handlebar back and forth. Grinning to himself, he replies brightly, “Not at all!”

3. Black Pete and Lucius, as modern day bikies, stand together under a clear blue sky. Lucius, wearing a striped tee shirt, yellow kerchief, and cropped red leather jacket, leans toward Pete and squints at his face, asking, “Sooo, do you like, know a bunch of celebrities?” Pete squints back at him in confusion, dressed in a sleeveless tan shirt, roughed-up green denim vest, and gray helmet buckled under his chin. His helmet has an American flag sticker, a gold badge sticker that says “bad ass”, and a stylized sticker of blackbeards head, made of smoke, with two flaming eyes and a cross of bones behind him. Pete uncertainly replies, “…I’m from Mississippi.” Lucius bluntly admits, “I have no idea what that means.” /end ID
