Next up, we’ve got the Amish Stede fic collab with @freakofnurture.bsky.social, and the sweetest Ed I might’ve ever written.

JUNE THE THIRD, AN EXCELLENT DAY‼️ written in early modern english in (poorly done) secretary hand :P #OFMD

FUN FACT‼️ THE FIRST RECORDED USE OF THE SINGULAR "THEY" IN ENGLISH APPEARS IN THE ROMANCE "WILLIAM AND THE WEREWOLF" FROM 1375‼️‼️

happy pride! stede is still worried that she isnt "being a woman" correctly despite everyones reassurances, so ed is giving her a How To Woman crashcourse that includes things like 'making a little towel hat after you shower' and 'not leaving the toilet seat up istg stede i almost fell in yesterday'

i do love that ofmd interprets "gentleman pirate" as stede being a gentleman and a pirate, but its also funny that irl it was meant to imply that he was self-funded and was essentially just a hobbyist

someone cut up stedes nightgown and ebenezer scrooge hat and hes just soooo embarrassed... who would do this to him.... (does this count for bottom stede week???)

clown stede getting pied in the crotch ok im sorry ill leave now

i think part of the reason eds apology was so awful was because it was co-written by stede who has never received an actual apology before

listen. i know it was improv. but the way it mirrors their time at the academy is so augh. ed being the one to reach out completely. stede reciprocating but staying in his own space and pulling back while ed stays. guys

supervillain edward teach spinning around in his big evil chair for a dramatic reveal but hes petting a mini stede instead of a cat

sugarbaby tfem stede what if

chubby merperson stede btw

they did this on their own i had no control over it

im freakofnurture (or whatever names u wanna call me). i love stede - putting him in Situations and shipping him with everyone. my bio continues to ring true. mostly i draw things, write essays in my notes app, and come up with aus that will never be made into anything.

obsessed with this game btw #OFMD #OFMDfanart

"eds gender this eds gender that" WHAT ABOUT STEDES GENDER???? that heavyset woman in a silk dressing gown did not get called a "mermaid merman merperson" for you to ignore her...

in summary:

a few izzy hands moments on my island that i particularly enjoy:

stedes bunny ears, his insanely showy fit, him looking to izzy for approval... this is literally canon

do yall understand the vision tho? #OFMD #OFMDfanart

stede being so happy about making his first friend only to find out that they were dared to talk to him as a joke

RBB #WIPWednesday, you say? Here’s some more snippets from my upcoming stories, starting with Amish Stede first this week, the collab with @freakofnurture.bsky.social!

ed, a criminal, is in the midst of a high-speed police chase. stede, a news reporter, is providing live commentary on the helicopter footage, getting probably more excited than is professional, reporting like a sports broadcaster. the chase is unsuccessful and ed gets away. +

STEDE X BUTTONS CANON (REAL)

what the hell, sure #OFMD #OFMDfanart

And next up is with @freakofnurture.bsky.social! With ex-Amish Stede on his first shopping spree with his new friend, Ed! End 🧵

no, stede! your heart is too pure! your strap-on is too natural! theyll dom you!

lemme pull this one out of storage

?

NO ONE TOLD ME THAT TODAY IS ED BALLS DAY???

im still here btw

every so often im like "i should open commissions or sell prints or something" and then i remember that all of my art is so deeply self-indulgent that only i would be interested

stedes queer awakening (featuring calypso) #OFMDRareShips #OFMD #OFMDfanart

i do love the cut scene of stede calling ed "babe" but i dont think that thats the petname stede would stick with. calling him "sweet" however....

the way stede looks up at izzy during the "plumb the depths" speech... izzy please dom that man into oblivion cant you see hes literally begging???

honestly no wonder stede clung to the treasure hunt idea so badly. his only friend admitted that he was plotting to kill him from the beginning - that was the reason he was staying aboard. and at the same time the murder plan ends, ed announces that he should leave. +

ned low torturing stede by telling him he has to dom

they should invent a way of me talking that doesnt sound like im an insufferable know-it-all contrarian who has never eaten a bowl of cereal that hasnt been pissed in

ed trying rejection therapy by going up to random people and asking crazy things - would you mind catching a bird for me? would you like to buy the shoes im wearing? it fails when the person he asks to swap clothes with is an absolute madman and says yes.

finally got that gentlebeard marriage

how romantic, stede!

stede. you guys are literally dating. you dont need to be doing all this.

once again holding up my "transfem stede bonnet truther" sign

he did, in fact, risk it all youtu.be/Oh1yUvqEPUw?...

likely thing for them to be doing...

i, too, love this thought #OFMD #OFMDfanart

stede bonnet forcefem ok sorry bye

shout out to stede bonnet for the weird rep. there r so many characters who r weird in a cool way, but stede truly is weird in a weird way. everyone say thank you stede
