so does stede also get to make fun of ed for leaving the crew on the dock or does only ed get to mock stede’s trauma

(anon is referencing this post)

no, but the CREW get to bully ed for the marooning

if ed tries to come up w a plan that splits up jim/olu and lucius/pete everyone is like "wow, ed, again? really?" any time theyre docked and ed stays behind (either by himself so he can watch the ship or with stede so he can [REDACTED]) theyre all like "you'd better not sail away without us again!!" any time ed isn't there for a fuckery (bc idk he's recovering from an injury or smthng) the crew is like "but captain... this is just like that time with the talent show... oh the memory of that island is so haunting..."

lucius ESPECIALLY goes all-in with the jokes. (altho i do think it would take ed and lucius longer to be comfortable enough with the whole Attempted Murder thing for jokes. not because lucius is traumatized/cant forgive ed, but bc we know ed has prior trauma surrounding his own violent behavior and feeling responsible for people's deaths.) any time lucius is in a room alone with ed, whether it be for two seconds as ed passes through the galley or for several hours when lucius asked ed to show him how to do tattoos, he makes sure he's within ed's earshot when he tells another crew member "oh my god, i had the scariest near-death experience just now"

and the way STEDE teases ed is by buying and/or stealing furniture/decor that ed absolutely fucking hates and when ed complains or makes a face stede is like "well, i know it's not as good as what i had before..." or "oh, i'm just so happy to be filling the space again!" or "i suppose if you truly hate it we can always just toss it in the ocean"

(stede doesnt care for these pieces, either, and they DO eventually get rid of them, but he commits to this bit as long as he can stand to)
