Sorting through feelings after pirate meet up and I’m struck by how positively #ofmd has sparked creativity, community and curiosity to try new things. Maybe that’s the real treasure, it’s a fine thing and we as a fandom wear it well, thank you all for being crew and keeping the ship afloat 🏴‍☠️💜🧜‍♂️🦄

I can finally show you keychains with Ed and Stede together! You can pre-order them from my Ko-Fi store or support me during this challenging month for anyone living in a homophobic country ko-fi.com/stjernegaupe #OFMD #OFMDmerch

🏳️‍🌈 how does it feel… to be in love? 🏳️‍🌈

Look, I can’t let a high holy day like June the 3rd go unmarked. <<sorry>> You should read this, it is fun and we could use the fun.

Happy June the Third, an excellent day 🏴‍☠️❤️

Signups are open for just a few more days! I’m super excited, I think we’re gonna have a lovely time 🥹 Everyone who has signed up already should have gotten a confirmation email (unless you signed up in the last 12 hours or so). If you didn’t let me know!

yesssssssssss

As this Pride Month begins, I’ve been thinking back to last year. To the meaningful, sweary, & deeply earnest things Con said about queer pride & community, which are so important for us all to really hear, but also to one thing in particular... “Be the fucking person you needed growing up.”

This is a dance off! If you see this, post a dance or you’re eliminated

My balance has been fucky all day because i Did Too Much so here, have a lil skyfic about TBI Jim having a shit balance day -- Frenchie is the one who notices. Olu is sleeping in after a late night on watch, and Frenchie is still the next person who knows them best. He remembers the bad days.

I love the kisses in OFMD. But I remembered David Jenkins talking about the You wear fine things well scene, and "and that's a kiss" stuck in my head and needed to get out. It's a bit wonky and a bit wrinkled but here are a few that's a kisses

Decided to make this horrible weather Stede's problem. #ofmdfic archiveofourown.org/works/85508131

Mmmm. Euston station in a heatwave. Got through that only to deploy my superpower of arriving at a perfectly functioning terminal only for it to completely fall over. Thank you Marylebone. Waaaaaa, I wanna get home.

If you ever happen to be in Bowness-On-Windermere and love yarn & crafts and chatting about OFMD then I highly recommend a visit to Stitches 😊

Hi, I'm Owl (named after the little determined owl in my pfp but it's stuck now), I was late to the OFMD party, but started embroidering thanks to the show & couldn't stop, so made an entire tiny Bayeux Tapestry style version of all 18 episodes. Somehow over 50 & I live just outside London

Doing a little happy dance. After a string of big disappointments that he took on the chin and carried on, Owl Son 1 has just landed his dream job in a lovely part of the country, back near his friends and he is giddy with happiness.

It's time! Signups for the project are now open. You can sign up by filling out this form: forms.gle/p1kzyrhJbG6D... You can find more information here: lavieenframes.carrd.co If you have any questions, let me know! There'll be a discord server, and I will be sending invites to folks who sign up.

Thank you @gaywatson.bsky.social - I got me some lovely summer linens 🥰

Hoping not to jinx it (again) but we've sold our house again. Miraculously the house we wanted was still available and they have accepted our offer. It's been hard & we've lost a LOT of money in the process so anyone who says it was all meant to be will be getting the stink eye, but still good news

I was so far out of my comfort zone that I think I met myself coming back the other way, BUT I got to thank Samba at the Meet & Greet for adding his signature to the Gayeux Tapestry. What an absolutely lovely human he is 🏴‍☠️❤️

That’s a season wrap on Ewen❤️🏴‍☠️

Cleaning the house for viewing number 17 since we put the house on the market. Feels less like a home and more like a disappointing tourist attraction at this point. Maybe a gift shop at the back would help.

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! Thank you @deanbird.bsky.social and @gelatinousstand.bsky.social 🥰🥰 #Fandommarket

Okay, #TakeTwoTuesday for this Officer Shaw/Jeffrey Fettering OFMD fic I posted last week because it's sweet and the world is a little too bitter these days 🌸🌺🌷 archiveofourown.org/works/83510681

Can anyone help me find where DJ was talking about other things in OFMD being a "kiss"? (the foot touch etc standing for additional Ed & Stede kisses).

Hey! So I'm doing a charity walk in May for the Mountbatten Hospice where I live and if anyone could donate even just a couple quid, that would be super duper nice! (No worries if not though) mountbatteniow.enthuse.com/pf/megan-pro...

Hey #fandommarket: we did it again. We turned our art into REAL CHANGE. Thank you @immcouncil.org for all you do—we are glad we could support your incredible work! Packages are flying around the world as we speak... and keep an eye on this account for info on next year!

A smidge over 48 hours to go! This is what the pages look like if anyone is curious, in blues and greens and with pressed flowers. I'm still some way off 50 contributions: even a sentence or two would be lovely if you're worried what to contribute! & please share with those not on bsky too 💚

Ok OFMD crew. Let's fill a treasure chest [digital scrapbook] for our beloved Calypso. Send your fanart, cosplays, or things Calypso has inspired you to make/do/be. Messages wishing Kristian well would also be lovely! Please share with those not on Bsky too 💚🤍💙https://forms.gle/qQb5LEFsvisLayCj6

Something really shitty happened today. Thank you to my crew for listening, and now I'm cheering myself up by seeing my prints and embroideries start to arrive and by looking at my birthday present to myself. Crew for life 🏴‍☠️❤️

OK, for anyone who thinks that romance is dead....the missing bidder for #1035 WAS MY HUSBAND!!!!!! He knew I was sad to let it go so he bid for it for my birthday. Thank you so much to the mods for keeping his secret and happy birthday to me!! (off to have a little cry now) ❤️❤️❤️

FULFILLMENT UNDERWAY You may get multiple parcels from multiple people—and it will take a month or so for items crossing borders to make it to their destinations, so have patience :) We will be sending emails following up to folks who haven’t paid/entered addresses starting April 1 so PLEASE DO!

Waiting with excitement to see where these will be travelling to! 🏴‍☠️❤️

Just look at this beautiful beautiful gift from the extremely talented @hms-terrorble.bsky.social that arrived to brighten up my day. 😍😍😍

Hey OFMD crew, we can make a tangible difference today by helping out Pirate Nana. This is a gfm Bix set up for them. I just confirmed with them it's still connected to their bank, so we can relieve a bit of pressure if you're able to help www.gofundme.com/f/help-pirat...

Hey, y'all, thanks so much for reading my impromptu skyfic which has gotten out of hand. But if you have little ones in your life to whom you'd like to spread the good word about pirates would you consider sharing this Insta post about my upcoming picture book? www.instagram.com/p/DWOuFhplcf...

Thanks to a colossal diary blunder I was in a theatre for the final hour of bidding yesterday. Thankfully the last few minutes coincided with the interval. I sat frantically refreshing my phone, eyes of a madman, hoping the WiFi held out. Mr Owl went to buy emergency tiny tubs of mango sorbet.

#OFMD crew: who needs some pirate joy in their life right now? I bought extra goodies from the buy it now section & I’m happy to share my loot & send some to any pirate who got outbid at the last minute or didn’t participate in this amazing #fandommarket It’s about belonging to something … 🏴‍☠️❤️🫡

Well. Wowee. What a magnificently generous bunch of lovelies you are. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Cups (When I'm Gone) is finished and published to AO3. Surely Ed and Stede manage to sort something out in the end... surely? Thanks to everyone who has read this fic and for the Pop Up Pirates for putting up with me when I had writers block. #OFMDFanFic archiveofourown.org/works/777707...

Here is my embroidery/mixed fabric piece for the #fandommarket Stede and Ed's mermen tails splashing about in the moonlight 🧡💜 www.32auctions.com/organization...
