screaming at how ed said intercourse before orgasms. he doesn’t just want to come; he wants to be intimate with another person. he wants to make love. and then come, like, whatever, yeah, gotta end with the good shit, okay, but what he WANTS. IS INTIMACY.

(apologies for the bathroom, the lighting was better there.)

Some tweaks to my Ed cosplay! I added some eyelets from an old combat boot to the jacket so I could taper the fit more, and I also cut out part of the jacket's belt so it can consistently hug my waist.

There's a bit of hang from the top back of the jacket, but I don't want to make that too tight because I couldn't move my arms very well if I did.

The belt I originally wore on the trousers was too big to comfortably move around in, so I'm switching to a tighter one. The one I have here seems a bit too tight, and I plan on buying a new one soon.

/* this one made me laugh, and it's actually very on point with Ed, so here you go! */

"My father? I'd trade trade my father for a tic tac," Ed scoffed. How they ended up on that topic was beyond Ed, but here they were.... On the precipice of discussing—the horror of horrors—the source of Ed's trauma. He would rather discuss anything else.

He stared at the cold cup of tea in front of him, and stuffed his hands in his pockets, struggling not to fidget. He'd almost rather trade his father for Alan, except the thought of having anyone fill that role made him feel like he was suffocating.

Alan frowned at that, unsure how to react. He would put a hand on his shoulder, like he did with Sam, but he didn't know Ed as well and wasn't sure if physical touch would make this worse. He'd offer to get warm tea, but something told him Ed needed to talk about this.

"I'm sorry," he said softly, "you deserve better."

What else could he say? He clasped his hands together, mulling over a million things.

"If you... if you ever need to talk about it, I'm here for you, alright?"

okay. okay. I think I've finally figured out the worst part of the "Ed's going to be an abuser just like his dad" headcanon some of y'all have.

let's go for a ride.

abuse is cyclical, and not just in a micro sense. it's not just "I love you, you're garbage, I'm sorry, I love you, I'm the only one who loves you because you're garbage, I'm sorry, I love you," etc. I mean macro. I mean generationally.

I mean that parents teach their children how to have relationships. we show our kids how adults interact with each other, how adults interact with kids, how kids should interact with kids. we model this behavior constantly. it's one of the most nerve-wracking things about being a parent, actually: you live in a fish bowl now, and the fish bowl is your home, and your children are constantly observing your behavior and interactions, even when you don't want them to, even when you think they're not.

growing up in a home with an abusive parent doesn't just expose you to the abuse—physical, emotional, psychological, religious, whatever it is—it teaches the child that this is how relationships work. and then this kid goes out into the world, interacting with other humans all willy-nilly, and bringing all the knowledge that their parents armed them with to bear. and when the kid (hopefully) realizes that wait, actually, shouting and throwing things and hitting people isn't good, that's not the way you interact, it is solely up to that kid to fix their shit. if they're lucky, they've got someone in their life to help them with that. but even once you've recognized that there's Bad Stuff happening in your interpersonal relationships, you have to retrain your brain. you have to change your go-to reaction. because you can recarve your neural pathways, but it is fucking hard work.

I didn't grow up with a physically abusive parent; I grew up with an emotionally abusive one. every time my partner does something that annoys me, or we disagree on something, and my reaction is "well, I don't really feel like talking"—if you don't think that I don't half- to full-on panic about wait is this the silent treatment, am I doing what my dad did, you are absolutely incorrect. it is a constant fear, that my reactions are inherently abusive. I am constantly gaslighting myself into believing that everything I do in a relationship is bad, hurtful, abusive. I am constantly having to convince myself that it's okay sometimes not to want to talk, and to sometimes be annoyed, and to sometimes disagree, and that none of this is inherently abusive.

now. Ed fucking Teach. do you not think the guy's spent some time introspecting? examining his inner most self? he's smart, and he's depressed, so, yeah. I bet he has. so do you not think, you absolute monsters, that he isn't doing the same fucking thing? Ed Teach, who convinced himself that defending him and his mom against constant violence (a white man, and as if this was a random choice)—ultimately saving their lives (and no, this is not an exaggeration)—made him an unloveable, unlikeable monster. Ed Teach, who is so desperate for love and friendship that his biggest fantasy is owning an inn, where people stay because they want to.

do you really think that one of the thousand internal battles Ed my beloved is fighting isn't don't be your dad don't be your dad don't be your dad? fighting, fucking tooth and nail, to be different. (same as Stede!) this reactionary headcanon literally misses so much of the point of the whole character; it buys into the British Navy's propaganda about him, and worse. it buys into the narrative that a man of color is inherently violent, inherently incapable of change.

Me: I just want Ed to have a good day!

Y'all: Are you going to write him having a good day?

Me: Absolutely not. I'm going to write him having a shit day and getting so, so cuddled about it.
