you all gotta stop saying ed/stede is a slowburn for real....in episode 5 stede says ed has been aboard the revenge for a few days. in episode 6 izzy says it's been 2 weeks. in episode 8 it's the next full moon after the one in episode 4. there is literally a month between ed and stede meeting and them being captured by the navy. i'm sorry to disappoint the 300k fic fans in the room but "slow burn" is not even in these two's dictionary!!! they fell in love so fast the fucking moon didnt even have time to complete one cycle!!! they couldn't pretend to not be in love with each other if they tried!!!!! this is not a slow burn it's a fucking flash fire!!!!!!

#i know its like the done thing like its almost expected for a gay relationship to be slow burn. for many reasons #but just because a relationship is well written doesnt mean its a slow burn #and it doesnt have to be. the fact these two were smitten right off the bat is whats so good about them #no wasting precious time in the show pulling the will they wont they. just embracing how much two men REALLY FUCKING LIKE EACH OTHER #and saying. deal with it. yknow its SO NICE how earnest and genuine it is. u never doubt how much they like each other #we need more of that...not every pair of gays need to stall for time and dance around each other for years and years #idk i just love how all in they went and calling it a slow burn kinda disrespects the effort theyre putting in to make it clear they love #each other. i guess #our flag means death #wails from the abyss
