A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE YALL bgr ch9 is with betas which means we're a little closer to getting the gorgeous thing @mossgroves.bsky.social made for us. I can't wait to show you guys 😍😍😍

surprise, ch 5 of elbows on the counter has arrived, along with a gift from @mossgroves.bsky.social! 💍📃 it's the holiday season for the elbow boys, which means fancy parties, a bit of dress-up, and a whole lot of avoiding feelings! things go... unexpectedly. 😳🔥 archiveofourown.org/works/75347531

Wake Up Dead Man was a DELIGHT. Please give me one Benoit Blanc movie per year, every December, forever.

Hi all! Some really very talented pirates have made something special to carry us from now to the new year! Something new drops everyday until Jan 1st. Check back daily for fic, and art and other goodies! Starting tomorrow Dec 12! ourflagmeans.gay/2025/

They're the loudest at the party. And the first and last to karaoke. There's an annual bet in the friend group over how long before Ed calls the nibbles 'whores derves'. Stede suspiciously wins the bet every year. It's three years before their friends catch onto the fuckery. #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

Holiday Card 2025!!! TWO FAVOURITE LOVE BIRDS!! <3 #ofmd

This year has mostly been an absolute trainwreck dumpster fire for me but the last few months have really turned it all around. It feels good to actually heal and look forward to things again. It's amazing to not be in fight or flight mode 24/7 anymore. I took so much time but I'm happy ♥️

Went into the shop and bought a fancy donut and walked out with three because the shopkeeper was closing up for the night and gave me bonus donuts 🤩

I'm ready to start the last mission in Mass Effect 3 and I had to stop because I'm not ready to say goodbye yet. I'm going to miss my little crew. 😢

I just helped move a couch in exchange for a loaf of fresh bread. I feel so Stardew Valley right now.

Ahhhhhh! So happy to get the chance to draw something from this lovely fic! Do you like Ed being treated like the absolute gem that he is? Then I think you're gonna like this chapter. ♥️

hellooo and happy wednesday!! 💍📃 chapter 2 of elbows on the counter is now up on ao3, featuring some GORGEOUS, dreamy art from @mossgroves.bsky.social 😍 in which ed has a bad day, and stede... revisits an old suggestion that he think may help 😌 enjoy! archiveofourown.org/works/75347531

Hey so where are we all hosting art to embed into fics these days? Links are breaking because things keep getting removed. Any suggestions?

I know I haven't posted anything in ages but I'm working on something sweet for an absolutely excellent new fic today and I've missed this. I'm still mostly on hiatus because starting a new job has been a lot to manage, but this is fun.

Behold. #OurFlagMeansDeath #ofmd

You know, one of these years I'm actually going to play Skyrim.

Sorry for completely disappearing for two weeks! I seized the moment and took a very last minute trip. I'm back now and the jet lag is a monster.

Man, baseball broke my heart. But damn I have had so much fun for the past few weeks. Let's do it again next year!

it's that time of year

Nothing better than waking up under a pile of cats on a chilly fall morning 😌

really missing hbomax hit series our flag means death created by david jenkins :(

✨I GOT THE JOB!!!!✨ I start in a month so I have some time to actually chill out and enjoy a bit more unemployment while knowing there's a job at the end of it. I'm so relieved 😭

Small life updates: -Job interview #4 went great but I still won't know if I have this job until like, next week -I sprained my back while working out, which feels rude. Currently stuck either on the couch or in bed because computer chair hurts me. -Apparently I'm a baseball fan now 😂

My final interview for this job keeps getting delayed and I'm not worried, I'm just impatient. Stuck in perpetual waiting mode, not knowing if I have the job or not and trying to just be calm. 😅

I think I remembered how to draw today. Yay!

THERE'S A SOCK ON THE DOOR! #ofmd #ofmdfanart #gentlebeard #ourflagmeansdeath

Sure I haven't drawn anything good in a couple weeks but I have crushed two novels and a puzzle, so y'know. There's that.

I miss them #masseffect #art

Had a nice cozy Over the Garden Wall night complete with hot apple cider. It's now officially autumn. 😌

Currently in a phase where I hate every single line I draw. Would really like that to stop being the case. Hoping that complaining about it here makes it go away. If you're waiting on art from me, I am still working on it, I've just disliked everything I've made for the last two weeks. 🙃

I finally managed to get a hold of Cookiestraw today on Instagram. If you're one of the people who never got their order I would recommend DMing them there. They're actively answering me.

Made it to the FOURTH interview for this job! They say this is the final one so I just need to not drop the ball at the last second. 🙏

Starting Mass Effect 3 babyyyy! Time for pain! 🥲

I'm waiting to hear back about a job that seems really good and my brain is just buzzing. I've done three interviews for it now and I just need to hear back one way or another. C'mooooon.

"EDWARD!" Here's stock photo studies while I was playing D&D tonight. #omfd #OurFlagMeansDeath

We can live in silks and leathers 🍰 #ofmdfanart #ourflagmeansdeath

The last week has been one of the most stressful weeks ever but I think it's all resolved now and I can breathe again. Looking forward to getting back to commissions today.

“There. Much better” Ed whispered softly as he rested his chin on Stede’s shoulder. Boyfriend's pockets are the best pockets. Ed says so. Got to do an illustration for @watchtheflow.bsky.social's toasty sweet 'Bonfire Night'! 🧡 archiveofourown.org/works/60437458 #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

me? drawing my first ever canon gentlebeard fanart 3 years after everyone else?? more likely than you think 🙂‍↕️💖🏴‍☠️ #ofmd

I miss waking up with my body shaking with anticipation at 4am to watch the season 2 episodes. I hate waking up at the crack of dawn but I hope I get to do it again for season 3 one day 🥺💜 #ofmd #ourflagmeansdeath #ofmdfanart

😇 #ofmdnsfw #nsfwofmd (laznsfw)

they’re in love!! #ofmd

A commission for the lovely @tizzybit.bsky.social who requested Ed posing for Stede on a motorcycle in some pretty lingerie. Ed's having a nice little supermodel moment. ❤️ #ofmd #ourflagmeansdeath

The Dread Pirate Blackhook and his manic pixie boyfriend. 🧡 They win the costume contest every year. #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

I really didn't want to make this post, but our DM's haven't been answered so I don't know what else to do. Our order from @cookiestraw.bsky.social never shipped and it's been nearly a whole year since we ordered it. At this point I just want a refund. Just a really disappointing experience.

i love you hit series our flag means death created by david jenkins. i LOVE you
