I think Con O’Neill should release a full version of him singing La Vie en Rose, you know, as a treat

The whole entire fucking our flag means death fandom right now: you came back!

The cast and crew: we never left! 

*The chain starts playing*

i've seen people trying to make sense of stede and how his personality shifted in s2ep7…but it makes completely sense to me. it’s what ed went through in the first three episodes! ed felt unlovable, so he pretended to be the person everyone assumed he was or wanted him to be. a ruthless pirate without an ounce of empathy. he can’t make sense of himself. there is this pirate inside of him but it can’t reconcile with the person he is and wants to become.

now when we look at stede in s2ep6 and s2ep7…we can assume that he feels loved, cause ed is back with him and the crew became a family again and celebrates him! but is he only celebrated when he is a bloodthirsty pirate? is he good enough to even be there? all these thoughts seem to plague him. stede thinks he needs to be a better captain. that starts again in season 2 with the conversation he and ed had, with his tone and how he should be tougher with his crew. zhang saying he is weak and soft. then the training with izzy. he’s only allowed love when he achieves the goal of becoming that person. then ned brings everything subconscious that's been bubbling up inside stede back to the surface. afterwards stede is cheered on by everyone after he actually killed the man! and one flaw stede actually has is that he can be quite self-centered! all of this plays together.

so why is ed allowed to make mistakes and have an identity crisis but stede isn’t? i think they’re close to figuring out what they want not only from each other but from themselves. they balance each other out in more ways than they think and above all…they’re loved and lovable.

Our Flag Means Death is literally the series of the decade. I'm not even kidding. It has changed my life. It has altered my brain chemistry and it has made me happier than any piece of media in the past five years. It has been living rent-free (huh, get it?) in my mind ever since it aired and I can't stop thinking about it. I make playlists about it. I buy every single piece of artwork I can find at cons. I save every fan art, every meme every gif. I know this may sound too much, but I've never in my life been able to like and enjoy something 'normally', or more accurately, in moderation. I fixate very intensely and the object of my obsession consumes me entirety. Ofmd came into my life, cupped my face and kissed me gently on the forehead. It's undoubtedly the best queer show we've gotten and I'm so grateful. Watching it has changed me. It has changed the way I feel about myself, my queerness, my gender identity, my body, about everything really. It has changed the way I look at things. It has unlocked something deep within me. It has cracked my heart open. It fucking scares me how much the show has affected me, and I know most some people won't get it, but this post is for those who do. And for myself I suppose, because honestly I'm so fucking grateful to everyone involved in ofmd. It feels so fucking good to have a show that celebrates queerness and queer love in such an open way. It's stuff like this that makes being alive more bearable. It makes you feel that it's all worth it.

Never Break the Chain

Inktober day 21. Chains

Ed and Izzy are so entwined sometimes that it might hurt more to let go.

edward teach, the prettiest wedding crasher i’ve ever seen

“Kill us all. Our spirit will last throughout your entire fucking empire because we’re good, and you are a rancid, syphilitic cunt.”

I better see this shouted at every morherfucker trying to ban queer rights and plastered on their walls

idk how to explain it but lucius and izzy are both babygirls on the opposite ends of the spectrum

Looking forward to our flag season two, not for the expected reasons, but because I will have a whole new list of strange and wonderful and bizarre phrases to add to my personal vocabulary to confuse everyone I know 

I love how nonsensical OFMD is. Season three could literally be a former man turned seagull bringing back a man from the dead and I wouldn't bat an eye.

Ed, flirting: You have really great hair

Stede: Oh thanks I grow it myself!

Lucius, smacking his arm: COMPLIMENT. HIM. BACK.

Honestly every time I see eds smile

I see this
