if nothing else, ed and stede are in their lovely little inn together. it's just them; the world is their oyster. they're rebuilding it, and also rebuilding themselves.
they can love, and be loved, without any sort of threat.
sadness aside the writing quality and pacing was much worse than s1 (understandable why) and I’m glad Max didn’t just renew it for a measly six episodes or something
it ended in an okay spot. I wish we would have gotten to see Ed and Stede in a more comfortable place, a happy spot for both of them where their issues are fully resolved, both with each other and their own insecurities and traumas, where we might have seen them fully happy and in love. But.
that’s what fanfic is for. In all? I’m glad this series couldn’t be ruined and run into the ground by a corporate streaming platform that had no respect for it anyway.
on the other hand ofc that if it goes fully canon at all we might get it done half assed or rushed or someone dies so I don’t trust Paul Simms at all 🤷🏼♀️
