Poll Vote March Mutual Pining Slowburn
Hi readers! I hope your weekend is going well <3
Blinded by Sakuya_Serenity_Kira (E)
Strawhats and Heart Pirates are traveling together after the events on DressRosa, Zou and maybe even Wano. Kizaru pays them a visit and as a result Luffy is blinded.  Now he is not allowed in the sun for days. And where would be safer for the freedom-loving captain than in the cabin of a grim, silent surgeon...?
Storge by Sketched_Ink (M)
“Ok!” Luffy grinned brightly, “You help protect Ace, and I beat up a flamingo? Easy” “Not a flamingo, Donquixote Doflamingo, my adoptive father”, Law tried to stop the venom seeping into his voice. Luffy nodded solemnly, “Ok, I beat up your father, the flamingo, and you protect Ace?”. Law supposed this was the closest he was going to get to total understanding. “Yes”, he ground out.   Or, the self-indulgent Bridgerton-style AU nobody asked for.
The Greatest Adventure by Kaatosade (E) [incomplete]
It was even more absurd to hear Luffy talking about marriage.
I was a God once! by KhepiAri (M)
I was a god once; no one believes it when I tell them now. I had tall shrines, devout followers and piles of offerings. My first shrine was made in the hollow of a tree. It was a little boy who had built it; he had killed a wild boar with a stone, that blood covered stone was my first form. He, along with his mates, he concluded the stone was a miracle. A notorious boar had rampaged around his village for months, destroying their crops and killing three elderly. The boy at the stupid age of 12 had taken matters in his own hand and ventured into the forest after his brothers and grandfather had returned injured. He had no skills and zero sense of self-preservation. With bow and arrows slung on his back, two long knives tied on thin his waist and a spear in his hand; he marched out of home at break of dawn. While his mother and father were busy nursing the injured and grandmother brewed the medicinal soup, he sneaked out. A pining god recites how he fell in love with a mortal. From bickering god and a devotee they become friends, but can god and human be together? Law is a young god and Luffy his devotee. SWITCH COUPLE: LawLu/LuLaw Lawlu Week 2022 day-6
And Like This, We Eclipse the Universe by riverofnara (G)
He knows his name. He knows the lullaby of the ocean and the press of warm sand against his toes. He knows the straw hat on his head is sacred, a treasure of unspeakable value. And he knows that he’s missed Law, a cavernous ache in his chest that would normally swallow one whole, but not here because Law’s presence alone is enough, a gentle balm to dull the pain in increments. - The universe grants two hearts longing for the other a chance to reunite. And even when they don't recognize each other, they don't let the moment go to waste.
Mon Trésor by bimarian (G)
Luffy wonders if Law will get mad once he finally admits it; will Law walk away from him once he lets all these wishes and prayers out in the open? Maybe. And that’s one doubt too many. Ten things that he wants to confess to his ally now that he is already the Pirate King.
Lost and Found by too_addicted_to_fiction (E)
“I’m not here to play hide-and-seek with you, Mugiwara,” Law spat out, hot and tired and annoyed. “I’m here to take you back. I promised your friends." In which Luffy runs away, and Law is sent after him.
When You Hug Me It Feels Like Home. by KhepiAri (G)
Unlike how his family had feared that Luffy would go wild at the first taste of freedom, Luffy was drowned in the first taste of college existential crisis, being good at something practically didn’t mean he was good at in theory. The first three weeks of Luffy’s freedom were spent studying things he had no understanding of. When assignments came another week later, the young student couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed and began crying in the middle of the library. Fellow students didn’t make things awkward for him by staring; it was common to find crying first years at every nook and corner of the university. It was entirely different from high school, if you fell no one was going to pick you up, you had to pick yourself up, clean your wounds and keep walking. “Are you okay?” A firm hand gently tapped a wallowing Luffy’s shoulder. “No…” Luffy tried to control his sobs. College AU. Fresher Luffy/PhD student Law. No Smut. One kiss. Law finds Luffy crying in the library, so he offers to buy Luffy a drink and help him out for a while, but he soon finds himself flirting with Luffy, who is a bit slow when it comes to matter of hearts. LawluWeek 2022 Day-8
Why won't you kiss me already? by Katia_Anyway (M)
Luffy is in love with Torao. And he knows Torao loves him back. So why won't Torao kiss him already!?
If You Need Me, I will by BasicallyACat (G)
Luffy can't find the words to describe all the things he feels, couldn't say them even if he found them. He knows people don't understand him usually and doesn't really mind. His nakama understand and that is all that matters. When he meets Law, suddenly there are far too many things to say even when he can't and Luffy prays Law can understand anyways.
The Curious Case of Monkey D. Luffy by lampalot7 (T)
Monkey D. Luffy was cute. This much was known—this was an undeniable, immutable fact. It was also largely suspected to be a ruse of some sort. The squishy-cheeked, beaming face on the wanted posters was largely considered by the more discerning members of Law’s profession to be incapable of the infamous, impossible deeds that Straw Hat Luffy has committed. Or: Luffy is cute, Law has incorrect assumptions, and then a crisis.

I've been trying to find fics to read and I hate that I can't find anything that hits the same as your fics (I could explain why for days, mostly because your writing is fucking amazing and also because it appeals to me specifically with the style and the fact that I fucking love footnotes), so I'll be scouring the far corners of the interwebs for more of your writing and fics that are written similarly.
thptptfhptdhkjs this kills the bilv 😭😭😭
allow me to help <3 my favourite human AU writer is @feraltuxedo, they have a huge backlog of fics in all different kinds of settings at various different lengths. they make me so happy and hopefully they'll make you happy too. not even gonna list my faves bc it's too hard to narrow it down. (feraltuxedo on ao3)
meanwhile:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Black Vitrum (2021)
(It's the first thing I wrote after a loooong time of not writing, so the prose isn't as strong as my others, but people continue to express love for the story 🥺💛)
Mads' ordinary life is turned upside down the day he reunites with an old school friend, is attacked by a demon, and learns he has a guardian angel. Now he has to make it through the already difficult journeys of university and love, with an angel on his shoulder and a demon in his head.
Paranomads (2022)
🤌 very fandom, very tropey, lots of pining and sneaking around. here's my good omens crossover concept i want to write eventually!!
The Paranomads are a trio of Aussies who’ve been best friends since primary school. When their skeptical paranormal investigation show finally lands a contract with an online streaming service, Beau, Isaac, and Adelaide fly to the United States to promote their series at various pop culture conventions across the country. Beau’s crush on Isaac has been manageable until now, but living for three months in a tiny tour bus provides some new challenges in keeping his heart in check.
Temptations Adrift (2023)
SEXY HORNY PIRATES WITH STUPIDLY FANCY PROSE 👏👏👏
Jude only wants to forget his worries when he abandons his small town to join a pirating crew. He's never yearned for romance, but loneliness drives him into the arms of his crew mates and leaves him tangled between two very different men. Confused by their intentions and conflicting truths, Jude struggles to figure out who is right for him, and what he truly wants.

Portrait of Vivienne Westwood by Christian Shambenait
It took me a few days, but with the death of icon-goddess-genius Vivienne Westwood, I had to make a post here about her work and how massively influential she was during her lifetime, and why her influence will remain for years to come.
"I take something from the past that has a sort of vitality that has never been exploited – like the crinoline – and get very intense. In the end you do something original because you overlay your own ideas." Vivienne Westwood
Born in 1941 in Tintwistle, Cheshire, Vivienne Westwood (nèe Swire) did not have a "traditional" path into fashion and design, even though she took a course of jewellery at the Harrow Art School (she thought it was not for her, being a working-class girl), she became a primary school teacher and got married with Derek Westwood, had a kid... But she was a maker of things and a creative mind, and made her own wedding dress and jewellery that she sold at a stall.
Tumblr media
Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood at the Let It Rock store (London, January 1972).
But all of that was about to change when she met Malcolm McLaren. She got divorced, moved with him and had another son. McLaren became the manager of the Sex Pistols and with Westwood, they became a creative duo who dressed the band and became VERY influential during th punk era. We must add the after that they opened a store called SEX, which was the meeting place for the punk scene in London in the 1970s. So, yeah. punk wouldn't look like it does without Vivienne Westwood.
Tumblr media
"Vivienne and Malcolm use clothes to shock, irritate and provoke a reaction but also to inspire change. Mohair jumpers, knitted on big needles, so loosely that you can see all the way through them, T-shirts slashed and written on by hand, seams and labels on the outside, showing the construction of the piece; these attitudes are reflected in the music we make. It's OK to not be perfect, to show the workings of your life and your mind in your songs and your clothes." Viv Albertine
This era of Westwood's design has a lot of collaboration, especially with McLaren, and they produced under the Worlds End label until 1985. These collections have each a theme and a name, and here is when we star seeing Vivienne Westwood's eye and curiosity for historical fashion, as well as nods and details especially from the 18th and 19th centuries. Of course, it was the 80s and all was way more colourful than what we thing of more contemporary Vivienne Westwood, but you can see that EVERYTHING was already there in the period which she dubbed as "New Romantic" with collections like Witches, Punkature, and Pirate.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Raincoat and belt, from the 1983 Witches collection, Victoria & Albert Museum.
Tumblr media
Ensemble from the 1982 Pirates collection, Victoria & Albert Museum.
Tumblr media
Knitted top from the 1983 Witches collection, featuring Keith Haring's graffiti.
The 1988-1991 era is called "The Pagan Years", and we can see the change of the main looks from punks to girls in clothes that parodied the upper class. And it is then that I think the ultimate Vivienne Westwood is seen: corsets, crinolines, tartan, colourful stripes... Here is when we begin to see the historical references taken to a extreme, mixed with the modern word and sense of humour, while always being perfectly made and patterned and fun for all genders.
Here some of my favourite ones:

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Madonna in her Fever video, 1993, wearing Vivienne Westwood. Gold leather corset, sleeves and mini skirt, 'Time Machine' ss 1988, Vivienne Westwood.
Always a creative force and a punk at heart, Vivienne Westwood was also an activist, putting front and center important causes like climate change, or sustainability and transparency in the brand's supply chain.
Tumblr media

Designer Vivienne Westwood looks through the glass toward the media during a photocall at a retrospective exhibition to celebrate her 30 years in the fashion industry, at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, Tuesday March 30, 2004.

I'll be the man my father never was (extra)
[Remember the dadzai fic being in hiatus?? Well, here's a small part of what I had planned, posting it for @imsofrancey bday!! Have an amazing day!!!]
December 2022
Nights like this are getting less usual with each passing day. 
Now, Dazai doesn’t call for a helping hand, only so he can drink himself to sleep in a bar down the streets of his city. 
Adam is right about what think, he should burn the desire to drink and drown with something else that soothes his mind and, with a little try and error, walking around was found to be the answer.
So, Dazai becomes an elderly man, strolling around the city with hands in his pockets. His fingers twitch, aching to hold a cigarette, but he pushes that to the back of his mind as well, and keeps walking in the dead of the cold winter night.
Would you stay for Christmas? Chuuya asked two days ago.
We’ll leave once winter is over.
Like some kind of princess trapped inside the hut in the goods, or a pirate condemned to take refuge in the port during the months the ocean was ungovernable.
Their tug of war of offering Dazai and Atsushi to stay and not being able to leave, had been going on since September and maybe, by this time, Dazai didn’t really wanted to keep playing.
It’s late when Dazai comes back from his walk, later than he had planned when he told Chuuya about heading out for a while. He needed to clear his mind, to walk around an empty city, thinking about nothing and allowing his feet to take him wherever his body wanted.  
With all the complaints he had at first, Dazai is glad when he opens the door of Chuuya’s apartment. If he was still alone, he would have paced around the house, digging his nails too deep into brittle skin as he tried to ground himself. With Chuuya home, he can leave for a walk, knowing that Atsushi is safe and sound, without having to call and bother one of his friends or coworkers. 
Balancing everything is easier now, and Dazai knows that without Chuuya here, his bad habits would knock on the door much louder than they already do.  
“Chuuya?” he calls softly, but the apartment remains silent as he takes off his shoes. Three pairs of shoes align by the door now. Atsushi's ones are more for the show than anything but, in these past weeks, Chuuya had bought enough baby shoes to fill a room.
“He’ll walk soon”, he said last night. “I can feel it.”
The tiniest doc martens Dazai had ever seen seem to be his favorite ones, and that are the ones in the genkan. Maybe Atsushi and Chuuya went for a walk too, sooner in the afternoon. 
There is no sign of Chuuya in the living room or in the kitchen. Maybe for once he dragged himself to bed early, not waiting for Dazai to come back. He doesn’t blame him, work and taking care of both Atsushi and Dazai, is a draining thing to do. Not even Chuuya and all his energy can keep the rhythm with the kind of life they have now. 
“You’re asleep?” The door to Chuuya –their– room opens, just to find an empty bed, and that’s strange, because there’s no sound coming from the bathroom, and the small balcony door is closed. “Slug?” 
Chuuya may be short, but not enough to disappear inside the apartment. And much less left it unattended. The only ones in the room are the cats, sleeping peacefully in an empty bed. 
“Did you fall asleep in the brat’s room?” opening the door slowly, in case the kid is sleeping, Dazai walks into the next room. Feet light against the carpet and tiptoeing around toys. “Chuuya?” 
He asks again, because Chuuya is not occupying the rocking chair.  
“Where are-,” oh. “Hi...” 
Dazai gets his answer when he approaches the crib to see Atsushi.  
“Found you.” 
He should laugh at the vision of Chuuya fitting inside a crib, but instead of that Dazai’s heart melts with affection at the way his partner embraces Atsushi. The kid is holding onto the adult´s shirt, melted in his arms in a sleep that looks deep and comfortable. 
Atsushi has a tendency to fall asleep holding onto something. 
And a tendency for waking up when someone makes him let go from that something. 
Dazai can see it, Chuuya rooking the baby in his arms until he was quietly snoring, and climbing into the crib when he realized that he wasn’t letting go of his finger. Anything to not wake him up. 
“Someone’s back is not going to be happy about this tomorrow,” short and small and everything, Chuuya is curled into a pretzel to fit inside the crib. “Sleep well dear.”
And then, he heads for his own spot in Chuuya’s cold bed. 
A loud sound blasting through the baby monitor wakes him up a few hours later. Dazai opens his eyes and jumps from the bed so quickly that he’s not even half awake when he bursts Atsushi’s door open, rushing into the room like a hurricane. 
He freezes in the spot the moment he realizes what’s happening. 
It wasn’t a cry that woke him up, no. 
It was a laugh, crystal clear and filling the room in a way that makes the static in Dazai’s brain go away.  
Well, more like two laughs. 
Atushi's giggles, clear and happy and so full of life, make a strange contrast with Chuuya laugh, deep and a little ugly. But Dazai always found the way Chuuya laughed charming, even if it was loud and a little bit crooked.  
They're still sitting inside the crib, Atsushi on Chuuya's lap, who keeps ticking the baby's sides, making him burst with happy noises for the first time in the morning. 
“Oh, you’re awake,” Chuuya says, looking at him from his spot in the crib. Dazai expected to find him ashamed or blushing because of it, but he looks pretty content with his sleeping spot of choice for the night. “Morning.” 
“Good morning...” 
“Say morning to dad Sushi,” and he grabs Atsushi's little arm, making the kid wave at him. 
“Papa!” Atsushi makes grabby hands at him and Dazai’s legs finally answer, walking toward the crib so he can pick up the kid. “Papa!” 
“Papa looks weird,” Chuuya jumps out of the crib without problem, stretching like a cat in the sun. Dazai decided to ignore the cracking sound Chuuya’s bones make, too focused on the sight for a few seconds before that. “Everything is fine?” 
Chuuya’s hand rests on his arm, warm and secure. It's not a firm grip, he just places them against his cold skin, and Dazai shivers at the touch. Or maybe, it’s the soft look in Chuuya's eyes that makes him shiver. 
With morning light sneaking in the room, Chuuya’s eyes are magical, light dancing over the mismatched colors. He looks happy and relaxed, and, when he tiptoes to kiss the corner of Dazai’s mouth, Dazai indulges. 
“A little under the weather, that’s all,” there’s no point in lying to Chuuya and, as much as seeing him and the kid together cheering him up, last night's episode has Dazai trying to find balance once more. “The walk helped.” 
“I’m glad then,” glad that it wasn’t a bottle of sake or a razor that did the trick. Glad Dazai was learning how to deal with everything in healthier ways. “Breakfast?” 
He doesn’t push it, Chuuya doesn’t ask when Dazai doesn’t tell. 
Chuuya bops Atsushi’s nose, who laughs again, trying to reach for him again. 
“No buddy, you already stole him from me the whole night,” Atsushi is so easy to distract, the moment he talks, his attention is back in Dazai. “Stealing other’s man from such a young age, what are we going to so with you?” 
Dazai nuzzles his nose against Atsushi’s chubby cheek, who keeps laughing. He's such a happy kid, easy going and bright. He's everything Dazai wasn’t when he was younger, he hopes he can keep growing up like this. 
“I wonder who he learnt that from,” Chuuya says, still on his tiptoes. “Sounds like a classic Mackerell move.” 
“I never stole anyone’s girl,” he protests, pouting a breath away from Chuuya’s mouth. “And I didn’t steal you either.” 
Chuuya came to him in his own stupid accord. 
“You’re lucky my taste in men is as bad as your posture,” and then, with a last impulse, he finally gives Dazai a proper good morning kiss. Chuuya's lips are warm against his, and Dazai can feel the small smile that takes shape against his mouth. “You need to shave.” 
Chuuya complains with their lips still pressed together and, in revenge, Dazai bites his bottom lip. 
“Only if you do it for me.”

Heart Pirates Week 2024: Day 6: April 11: Uni: Aftermath
A trip to the new world was a great adventure and far more interesting, safer and less painful than waiting for his gonads to be gathered—a quick summary of Uni’s life before he met Law and the Hearts. Dégustation. More like disgusting. But it was still dangerous in the New World, even if the danger was more general and less genital. Captain was careful but had his own brand of recklessness— challenging a warlord here, an emperor there, or two. And sure, Law wanted to change the world, but there was always an aftermath, and now they were feeling it. Drifting through the dark waters, Uni's carapace ensured he'd fulfil Jean Bart's birthday wishes, but not so much the big man himself.

Happy Gay Pirates Eve, everyone. Don't forget to leave cookies and milk out for David Jenkins tonight! Plus some French fries for the seagulls.
Thinking hard about March 23, 2022 today. The last Gay Pirates Eve. The show had just started appearing on people's radars, and there wasn't nearly as huge a fandom as there is now -- more like a bunch of queers shouting "HEY HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN THIS THING?" on various social media platforms. (It's me! I was one of those queers!) Those of us who'd been watching in real time were sick with worry that the heavily-hinted Ed/Stede relationship wouldn't actual be real, that we'd ended up the target of a queerbait yet again. We were also sick with worry about everything else that might happen to them, but that felt almost beside the point back then. Nobody (at least nobody that I saw) was theorizing about what the plot of those last two episodes might be. Everyone was like "BUT WILL THEY KISS."
Me, personally? I also had covid that week. Which meant lots of cancelled plans as I quarantined myself inside my apartment for what ended up being ten long days. I had a WFH day job to worry about, but other than that, it was all free time to rewatch the eight existing episodes, go treasure-hunting for subtext and little asides that I'd missed, cough a lot, nap a lot, and hope hope hope that this relationship I'd become so invested in would actually turn out to be real.
I thought really hard about staying up until 3am that night to watch the finale. (I'm thinking about doing the same tonight.) I didn't, both because I was sick and because I knew that whatever the last two episodes threw at me, it would render me completely unable to sleep afterward. (I probably won't tonight either, not for the first reason but very much for the second one.)
But it's pretty amazing, this time around, to see hordes of people on Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook, etc., theorizing about what might happen in the plot, because we're no longer worried that the romantic relationship might not be real. It's amazing to just know it's the heart of the show, both because the creators have told us so many times and because the show itself has proven it so many times.
Just look, guys. Look how far we've all come.

That would be either the alps in Germany or the Salinas beach, here in Brazil! I adored both the snow and thes amount of stuff i find at the beach there
Something you’re proud of yourself for?
The amount of progress I made since being diagnosed with autism, depression and anxiety. Even if I stopped going to therapy, I feel like the diagnosis (esspecially the autism one) shed so much light on my life, and I was able to makes the world around me (even if just at home) more confortable for myself by understanding myself more and adjusting the way I do things so it's easier on me.
Favorite books?
Hmmmmm let's see- the Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children series, obviously, but I also LOVE The Book Thief, American Gods and definetely Warrior Cats (I only read the first arc, so Idk how good's the rest xD)

When did you join the HBO War fandom? What was the first show you watched?
Back at the end of 2022 or early 2023 was when I first heard about it, but as for officially joining...? Probably like. 5 or 6 months ago? I have no idea what time even is-
The first show was Band of Brothers :D
Have you read any of Easy Company’s books? If so, which ones were your favorite?
Nope. And won't.
Favorite HBO War character and your favorite moment with them?
Webster. Him shoving himself on the ground was the best. Just like me fr💕
Do you make content for any fandoms, if so; what sort of content?
Uhhhhh I make memes and occasionally fanart? I wouldn't classify this as content but when I'm really into something I take some aspects of it for my own world, so I can always keep it close to me, even if the hyperfixation faded a bit with time
Favorite actor/actress and your favorite film of theirs?
I know no one- but I do like Bud Spencer and Terence Hill's movies. They are the only actors I know the name of 💀 I like the funny coeboy movies, many good memories watching them with dad when I was a kid (and still doing so, every now and then)
Favorite quote/s that you wish to share with others?
"I'll beat you with a dead cat 'till it starts mewing" - a popular brazilian saying (the best ever)
Random fact your mutuals/followers don’t know about you?
HmmmmmmmmI share so much about myself that I don't even know 💀 probably that I once fell facefirst on a river when I was 4, while I was fishing? That was A Day
If you’re a writer, do you need a beta reader (say yes so I can be your beta reader 🤭)?
I don't write much but!! I did write something yesterday about my characters and idk if I should post, but if you're interested, I can show you :D
Three things that make you smile?
My dog, my characters, birds
Any nicknames you like?
Based off my real name I like "Rah", but only when used irl. As for the internet, I love Pretz! And I have a special one my best friend @isazmoon gave me, which is Pretzu, but this ones I feel like it's only hers :3
List some people you love to see around on tumblr!
@1waveshortofashipwreck @xxluckystrike @ronald-speirs @ronsparky @minha-xuh @whollyjoly @sweetxvanixlla!! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!! AMAZING PEOPLE!!
What would you do during a zombie apocalypse?
What would I live for, my stupid ass can't even run 😭 i'd die fast as fuck. And I know all my friendswould die too so we all just perish together 💕💕💕 friendship goals
Favorite movie?
How To Train Your Dragon? Wolfwalkers? Saving Private Ryan? Pirates of the Caribbean? Can't probably choose only one, it's torture
Do you like horror movies?
Ehh, not much? I prefer animations
Tags (no pressure): @xxluckystrike @whollyjoly @ronsparky @sweetxvanixlla @grumpy-liebgott @1waveshortofashipwreck @blueberry-ovaries @minha-xuh (hey Gih, if you want you can take off the HBOwar bits and/or replace them with MPHFPC, since you're from another fandom, feel free!)

15 DAYS OF SONGFICS FOR HALLOWEEN (OCT 15TH - OCT 31ST)
'What about you Sirius?’ Y/N said as she shovelled cornflakes into her mouth. They were at breakfast but Sirius hadn’t felt like eating much, in fact, he’d been lost in his own thoughts. As he looked at her she stopped eating and raised her eyebrows expectantly. ‘Me what?’ he asked as he hadn’t listened to the conversation. ‘Your costume,’ she said rolling her eyes. ‘Oh,’ he said, ‘I don’t know…I hadn’t really planned on anything. Halloween’s not really my thing.’ ‘Oh don’t be so boring,’ she giggled, ‘we’re all dressing up.’ ‘Yeah mate it’s gonna be fun,’ James said.
‘And what are you going as Prongs?’ Sirius said cockily. ‘Robin Hood,’ James said unabashed, throwing his arm around Lily beside him. ‘And I’m Maid Marion,’ Lily said with a smile making Sirius’ stomach churn. He usually didn’t mind how nauseatingly cute the pair were, but today it was getting to him. ‘Oh yeah, and what’s Pete going as Friar Tuck?’ Sirius chuckled earning a scowl from Peter, ‘actually, I’m going as a pirate.’ ‘So Smee then,’ Sirius chuckled. ‘At least he’s got a costume,’ Y/N said, ‘he’s not pretending he’s too cool to wear one.’ ‘Oh yeah?’ Sirius said leaning across the table. ‘Yeah,’ she said leaning in too. They were still a fair way from each other but Sirius could smell the scent of her perfume in his nostrils which made his stomach do a little flutter. As she looked at him challengingly he could feel his heart beat a little bit quicker. He liked that she went toe to toe with him, apart from the boys no one seemed to get him quite as she did and if he was being honest with himself he liked it. More than he should.
‘And what are you going as princess?’ he said. He didn’t know why he had to add that little nickname on. It was dripping in sarcasm and completely unneeded but he couldn't help himself. ‘I’m going as Red Riding Hood,’ she said unbothered by his teasing. ‘You mean you’re just gonna stick on a red cape and be done with it? Very imaginative,’ he said rolling his eyes. ‘Well, I’m sure my costume will never be as good as yours.’ ‘I’m sure I could knock something up that’ll blow you all out of the water.’ ‘Good! Glad to see you’re putting the effort in,’ she said rising from the table, ‘come on Lil we’re gonna be late for Care of Magical Creatures.’
And with that, she climbed out of her seat and started collecting her book bag. Sirius cursed inwardly. Not only had she had the last word but she had tricked him into participating. Though he supposed she did have a point. He could hardly call anyone for not having a good costume, not when he wasn’t even bothering but the ease with which she could talk him round scared him.
‘Bye boys,’ she said winking at Sirius as she turned to walk away. Lily was now in step with her after spending minutes kissing James goodbye and Sirius watched as she walked down the gap between the house tables. Sirius sighed. ‘So, what are you gonna dress up as?’ James said not noticing the longing look which Sirius was trying to hide. ‘I don’t even know,’ Sirius grumbled. Time to put his thinking cap on.
✵✵✵
When Sirius came downstairs into the common room that night it was abuzz. People were crammed in though most of the furniture had been moved out of the way to create a ‘dance floor’. Music blared loudly out of a record player that didn’t seem to have it in it to be making such a racquet that Sirius figured one of the older years had hoodwinked it. As his eyes roved through the crowd looking for his friends he took in everyone’s costumes. They were not allowed to wear their costumes to the Halloween Feast which meant the time they spent in them was minimal which seemed like a waste of time to Sirius but that hadn’t stopped people from going all out. Of course there were a couple of basic costumes like a skeleton or devil. But as he moved through the crowd he noticed lots of people had really put in an effort including a fourth year that had charmed a halo to hover over her head.
Sirius made his way towards the chairs at the back of the common room where he had spotted a familiar flame of red hair. When he broke through the crowd he found Lily sitting on the arm of a chair that James was sitting in. She was in a long flowing pink gown with a small matching headpiece around her head and James was dressed all in green, a hat placed on his head though his hair still poked out in all directions from underneath it. Standing by the fireplace was Peter. He was dressed as promised in a pirate costume though it was less effort than the others as his costume consisted of a striped shirt and an eye patch. And then perched on the coffee table was Y/N. Sirius’ breath caught in his throat a little as he took her in.
Her costume was not simply a red cape. A dark red velvet cape flowed behind her and her dress clung to her skimpily. A corset bunched her in so much that Sirius had to make a conscious effort not to stare at her cleavage which was much more noticeable now that she was out of her school uniform. The black corset fell into a short skirt that rested against her mid-thigh, again making Sirius avert his gaze. She spotted him on the fringes of the crowd and broke into a big grin.
‘Here’s Mr I Won’t Dress Up now,’ she said with a giggle as he moved into the group properly. ‘Hey I’m wearing one aren’t I?’ he said though he had to try not to smile. ‘And what exactly are you?’ Lily said running her eyes over his attire. Sirius spun around showing his outfit off. ‘I’m a vampire,’ he said. ‘They just look like wizards' robes,’ Peter said snarkily, evidently not having gotten over the little Friar Tuck jibe from earlier. ‘Ah yes,’ Sirius said walking over and patting Peter on the shoulder, ‘but the beauty of this my dear friend is that anyone could be a vampire. So how do you know what I’m wearing isn’t incredibly accurate?’ ‘Seems like a cop-out to me,’ Peter shrugged. ‘Well I like it,’ Y/N said tugging on Sirius’ other arm so he could come and sit beside her. He plopped down next to her, smiling back at her as she grinned widely at him, his heart thudding against his ribcage.  
The gang ribbed on Sirius’ costume for a little while longer but he didn’t pay much attention to it. Y/N liked his costume and that was all that mattered. He participated in the conversation a little but most of his time was spent watching her. He listened to her laughing and joking along with his friends, her voice sounding angelic to his ears. He kept having to remind himself not to stare at her lips too much as she talked. He revelled in the heat that was exchanged between them as her bare thigh touched his clothed one. And he had to stop himself from getting swept up in the moment when she leaned across him reaching for her glass, her hand on his knee for just a second.
Then the music started to change. Some people had left meaning that there was more room on the dance floor and whoever was in charge of the music decided to play a slow song.
‘I love this one! Dance with me?’ Lily said jumping up off James’ lap. She held her hand out for James who grumbled a little but allowed himself to be pulled out of the armchair and led to the makeshift dance floor which was holding around ten or so couples. ‘I love this one too,’ Y/N said quietly as she watched her friends start to dance to the music. ‘I’m sure Pete will dance with you,’ Sirius joked though he didn’t know why. If she did dance with Peter he was sure that that would put him in an awful mood. ‘Actually,’ Peter said looking across the room, ‘I think I’ve just got a better offer.’
Peter strode off across the room to where a girl from the year below was watching him. She was standing amongst her friends who burst into fits of giggles when he appeared though she didn’t seem to care as a minute later they were walking hand in hand towards the other couples. Y/N had been watching them intently but Sirius wasn’t. He was watching her. Watching the way her lips had turned down in a small frown and the way her brow furrowed with sadness. When she turned back to him he smiled at her weakly.
‘Who’d have thought Pete would tap up before you?’ she smiled. ‘He’s a sly dog our Pete,’ Sirius chuckled. ‘Yeah, there goes my shot I guess,’ she said looking up at him shyly, ‘unless…’ ‘Unless?’ he said. ‘Never mind it’s stupid,’ she said visibly shaking the thought from her brain. ‘Unless we dance?’ he finished. She flushed at the suggestion which made that strange feeling arise in Sirius’ lower belly. ‘You don’t have to,’ she said. ‘I want to,’ he said standing up. She bit her lip looking between him and the dancefloor before she nodded. The two of them walked to the outskirts of where everyone was dancing. Sirius’ arms went instinctively to her waist as hers wrapped around his neck. It may have been his first time doing anything with her but that didn't mean he was a novice. They swayed to the music, moving their feet slowly as they sort of rotated on the spot. Sirius looked at James and Lily. He was holding her waist with one hand and his other was holding hers, resting against his chest next to her head. She was tucked gently under his chin and his eyes were closed as they danced lost in the moment. Sirius wanted to do the same with his dance partner.
‘Thanks,’ she said watching him closely. ‘No problem,’ he shrugged but she looked at him with a serious expression. ‘What?’ he asked after a moment. ‘You’re sweet you know that?’ she said. ‘Yeah sweeter than Honeydukes I am,’ he said rolling his eyes. ‘I mean it,’ she said dropping her gaze for a moment before she continued, ‘I mean you didn’t have to dance with me…and you didn’t have to wear a costume but you did.’ ‘It wasn’t as if it was any big hassle,’ he mumbled. Their relationship up to now had always been a back-and-forth of witty banter, and her being so genuine with him was making him nervous. ‘Well it cheered me up anyway,’ she said Sirius wanted to ask her what was the matter but she spoke before he could, ‘can I ask you something?’ ‘Go on,’ he said. ‘Why a vampire?’
Sirius went to say something witty but he paused as he thought about his reasons for the costume. Sure it had been a last-minute thing. Something he could have just thrown together but it wasn’t his first thought and with her being so real with him he didn’t want to laugh it off so he told her the truth.
‘It wasn’t meant to be a vampire,’ he said honestly. ‘Oh?’ ‘Yeah,’ he said nervously, ‘at first I was going to come as…a death eater.’ ‘Sirius,’ she gasped. ‘I know, I know,’ he said, ‘but before you scold me I don’t mean the out-and-out lunatics they’ve got at the minute. The stupid masks and whatnot. I mean like they were at the beginning. These robes were bought for me by my mother. If it were up to her I’d only wear the finest robes that money can buy. Because wearing muggle clothing is so shameful.’
There was a bitterness to his voice that made Y/N’s face scrunch up in concern but the scoff at the end told her he was ashamed.
‘I was going to pretend to be just like them. Act all snooty and stuck up,’ he sneered, ‘like a good pure blood. Like someone from the Noble House of Black should…but the more I thought about it the more I realised as funny as it is it’s not really a costume. Yeah, they’re ridiculous but it's not funny. They’re terrible people. Why should I make fun of them when everything they stand for is everything I’m against,’ he said. Y/N nodded as the pair fell silent for a moment. It felt odd but nice to get all that off of his chest. He knew she wouldn’t judge him.
‘Well I’m glad you went with vampire,’ she said after a moment, ‘they don’t deserve someone like you even pretending to be like them.’ ‘I’m sure my mother wishes I actually were like them,’ he said. ‘Well she’s wrong,’ Y/N said, ‘you’re worth more than all of them put together.’ ‘Y/N,’ he mumbled blushing a little at the compliment. ‘I mean it,’ she said stopping them from swaying. He looked at her watching him with a sympathetic gaze, ‘Sirius Black you are one of the funniest, nicest, most charming people I’ve ever met.’ ‘Thanks,’ Sirius mumbled. His heartbeat was in his ears and his hands had become sweaty as she spoke but he didn’t care. He was going to tell her. He was going to tell her he thought all those things about her and more. Let her know that he liked her but she spoke first, ‘Remus!’
Sirius watched as she let go of him, moving past him to where Remus was coming in through the portrait hole. His was paler than normal a fresh gash poking out near his neck under his jumper. Sirius watched as he threw his arms around Y/N in a somewhat tired fashion and she leaned up and kissed him. Sirius's stomach dropped.
They walked towards him and he considered running out of the room trying to get away from the feelings in the pit of his stomach but his legs weren’t cooperating. Y/N was chattering away to Remus who seemed tired but nevertheless smiled as she talked, his arm around her shoulders.
‘Hey mate,’ Remus said. Sirius watched as Y/N leaned into him. ‘Hey,’ Sirius said as evenly as he could muster, ‘you alright?’ ‘Little worse for wear but nothing too bad,’ Remus shrugged. His change was always hellish but he never complained. ‘I can’t believe you made it,’ Y/N said looking up at her boyfriend with a smile. ‘I promised you didn’t I?’ Remus said. ‘I know I know,’ she said, ‘but you didn’t have to force yourself out of bed.’ ‘And have our couple's costume fall flat? Not a chance,' Remus chuckled pressing a kiss to her temple. ‘Couples costume?’ Sirius said looking at them both. ‘Yeah,’ Y/N said, ‘I’m little red riding hood.’ ‘And I’m the big bad wolf,’ Remus chuckled. Sirius forced a laugh but his heart wasn’t really in it. Of course. Of course, they had a couple's costume. Of course, she’d been upset because her boyfriend couldn't come. He’d cheered her up but only because the one person she wanted to see wasn’t available. Sirius cursed himself inwardly. How could he be so blind?
‘What are you supposed to be?’ Remus said eyeing his costume. ‘A vampire,’ Sirius said. ‘Think of it last minute eh?’ Remus chuckled. ‘I think it’s a good costume,’ Y/N said looking at Remus and then at Sirius with a knowing smile. ‘Well I suppose I just came as myself so I can’t argue with that,’ Remus said, ‘so what’s everyone up to?’ ‘Dancing,’ Y/N said, ‘Sirius-’ ‘Was just going to get a drink? Want one?’ Sirius said. Y/N looked at him curiously but didn’t say anything. ‘In a bit,’ Remus said as he looked down at Y/N,  ‘wanna dance? ‘Of course,’ she said, ‘but not if you’re too tired we can sit down with Sirius and-’ ‘Actually, I’ve got other plans,’ Sirius said looking at a pretty blonde who was just leaving through the portrait hole. Before either of them could say anything he pushed past the pair and headed out through the portrait hole.
But once outside he didn't follow the girl. Instead, he walked down corridor after corridor before he eventually ended up at the astronomy tower. He leant against the railing, looking out over the Hogwarts grounds which were visible for miles given the waning moonlight. He couldn’t believe he had almost told her how he felt. He knew she and Remus were a couple. Remus was his best friend for god's sake! He had watched his friend fawn and fret over her until he finally had the courage to ask her out. He hadn’t intervened. He knew that if he had told Remus of his feelings for her the boy would bow out and as much as it pained him to see her with his best mate he couldn’t do it to Remus.
No, he’d gotten too close tonight. He tried to imagine what it would have been like if he had said the words. If she felt the same way he’d lose Remus. If she didn’t she’d pity him or tell Remus anyway. Either way, he’d never be able to show his face around the pair of them ever again. No. He needed to keep it inside.
Even though it made his heart ache beyond belief he had to.
He couldn’t lose either one of them.
The way they kiss, Their happiness, Will my aching heart ever mend, Or will I always be in love, With the girl of my best friend

Ship of the Day: BlackBonnet
Tumblr media
Names: Edward Teach and Stede Bonnet
Ship Name(s): BlackBonnet
Original Content: Our Flag Means Death
THIS COVERS SEASON 1 ONLY SO PLEASE (if you comment) DO NOT COMMENT SPOILERS PLEASE! THANK YOU!
Ship Info:
Now it's time for our most important topic (in my opinion). Gay pirates.
Our Flag Means Death first graced our TV screens in 2022 with a second season following shortly after in 2023 (this blog will only cover the 1st season so please don't spoil anything!). This series is rich with people who we would recognise in the time when pirates roamed the earth such as Israel "Izzy" Hands, Calico Jack, Jim (who is based on multiple real-life pirates) and so on. The actual title of the show could also be a reference to this time due to the dangers and risks associated with piracy, where engaging in pirate activities often led to a perilous fate depending on who you ran (or sailed) into. But the two main pirates of the show are the real reason I'm writing our blog, so let's get on with it!
'Gentleman Pirate', Stede Bonnet, is an inexperienced pirate who used to be an Englishman during the 18th century. He lacked experience yet somehow managed to find himself as the Captain of his own ship known as 'The Revenger'. 'Blackbeard', Edward Teach, is a notorious pirate who also sailed the seas during the 18th century. He was known for his fearsome appearance, long black beard, having multiple weapons strapped to his body as well as being in command of a fleet of ships. The odds of these two meetings seem pretty slim right? WRONG! The two do meet. And have a hell of an adventure that sends them both (and the audience) on an emotional rollercoaster.
Although I would love to dissect every single scene that could have led audiences shipping these two, I have limited it to several to save time for myself and for those of you who are reading.
Tumblr media
The first scene I would like to introduce comes from the first season where Edward (Blackbeard) had been staying on the Revenge, teaching Stede how to become a more fearsome pirate while in return Stede taught him about higher society. Already the two represent being people the other person dreamt of being, already creating a connection of respect in some cases. After being insulted by the captain of a ship they had just raided, we are given a glimpse into Edward's backstory after he pulls out some red handkerchief his mother had given him. Attached to this handkerchief is a memory that has followed Edward for years of his mother telling him when he was a child that 'they were not the kinds of people that got to have fine things'. Additionally, on the captured ship an invitation to a high-society party is found, and we see Edward desperately wanting to attend. While at this party he takes on the identity of 'Jeff the Accountant' and entertains the aristocracy. But things turn sour when he fails to remember the correct utensils to use at dinner, causing the aristocracy to start laughing at him and no longer with him. Stede handles the situation by starting a brawl amongst the aristocrats, leading to the boat catching on fire. Now we get to the main bit of this section, as Edward removes the red handkerchief from his shirt and reminisces about what his mother had said to him we see Stede come up to him. He takes the red handkerchief, folds it into a rose and places it into Edward's breast pocket, telling him that 'he wore fine things well', leading to a moment of silence before the two walked away from each other (not without a glimpse back though). To some of the fanbase, the red handkerchief could be a personification of Edward's heart. He views it as a 'tatty old thing' that he should hide since he doesn't think it suits him to have a heart. He might think it's weak to have one since it could lead to him being hurt in a place he cannot heal. We first see him hiding the fabric, embarrassed to show Stede. This could also be because he views Stede as the 'fine thing' that he cannot have. That his heart will not suit Stede due to their different upbringings. But as the two grew closer that evening he shows his heart to Stede, who folds it into a beautiful rose showing him how beautiful his heart could be. This could also mean that Stede is the amplifier that Edward needs in order to see himself for who he truly is and to see how he can wear his heart well. This showed progress of their relationship for many fans due to how he was showing a part of him (that he normally kept hidden) to Stede. A desire he always wanted but did not think he deserved. And how Stede reassured him he did deserve it. This is only one of the scenes that proves how important the two are to not only each other for things such as teaching each other how to be a better pirate or teaching the other about the finer things in life, but also to each other's growth as individuals.
Tumblr media
We again see their relationship change when Edward tries to kill Stede Bonnet (it sounds worse than it is, trust me). As we learn how the only time Edward felt fear was when his father was killed by the 'Kraken' and how he was there to witness it, he decided it was time to teach Stede about the 'art of fuckery' and how it could be used as a great way to install fear in their enemies. However, some of Edwards crew (Izzy,Ivan and Fang) had had enough of Edward acting like Stede's 'pet' (someone that Blackbeard would never let on his ship) and said it was time for Bonnet to die. Edward agreed. As he went on to do the deed ,unaware that Stede was planning to do an 'art of fuckery', the special effects resembling a Kraken attack cause Edward to go into a panic and hide in Stede's bathroom. Alarmed at this reaction, Stede follows and Edward reveals that he was the 'Kraken' who killed his abusive father. With this, he also tells Stede that he was planning to kill him but couldn't as he broke down in tears saying how he 'wasn't a good person' and that this was why he 'didn't have any friends'. Stede rebukes this claim and says how he views him as a friend and how he will forget about the planned killing, comforting Edward. This showed how much comfort Stede provides Edward. When Edward felt unsafe or needed somewhere he felt safe he went to STEDE'S bathroom. This showed that when he feels vulnerable, when all of the emotions he's kept hidden for so long come to surface his one confidant is Stede. And again, he shares something he has never shared with anyone else showing how much he trusts him. The way he can't kill Stede or keep his emotions in check around him could also highlight the fact that he cannot bring himself to be Blackbeard around Stede. He can only be Ed. The better self that Stede had helped him find. And how Stede straight away went after Edward, comforted him even when he revealed he was going to kill him and reminded him of his frienship showed that he could see the real Edward. And that was the version he wanted to see. Not the Blackbeard the others demanded came back to surface. The one that suited fine things. Edward. And with this interaction how could we not want a happy ending for these two?
Sadly, we do not get to see a happy end as of season one.
Tumblr media
As soon as Edward learns that Calico Jack (his former crewmate) was sent by Izzy to make sure that he was away from the Revenge before the English arrived and captured Stede and his crew, he abandons the dinghy to return to the revenge. Once he arrives him, Stede and the rest of the crew are captured. But, as their hands are tied and they're thrown onto the floor, we see a moment between the two that had cemented for many fans that they did indeed have feelings for each other. They look at each other, content that they were together again. And as the camera slowly zooms out, we see Edwards boot reach for Stede's ankle, and in response Stede rubs his ankle against Edwards boot. Despite the chaos happening outside, their only concern is comforting the other. And if they have the means to do it, they will not hesitate. As long as they each have that little bit of comfort the world could burn and they would still be okay. Since they have the other as company. Nothing would hurt them more than being separated. If they could have even the tiniest bit of contact, nothing be bad. Even when death faces them and comes for their 'flags', they are just happy they would go through it together. There's no 'Mine' in 'Our Flag Means Death' after all.
Tumblr media
The next episode we see as they both try and defend each other over Stede's crime (killing Nigel Badminton) showing how they wanted to make sure the other one was safe, even if it meant death for themselves. They just wanted the other one to be safe. In the end they both get put on trial. It was decided that Edward would go with Izzy Hands while Stede would be sentenced to death by firing squad. Not wanting Stede to go to a place he wouldn't be able to follow him to, Edward declared Act of Grace to save 'The Gentleman Pirates' life. This was agreed to and Stede would be pardoned if the both of them signed a document which would mean they would need to give up their life of piracy and serve the king. They both signed. As they spend some time in the Royal Privateering Academy, Stede questions how Edward was able to handle the situation so well to which Edward says he wanted to do 'what makes Ed happy'. He confessed that it was Stede that made 'Ed' happy. To make a sweet moment so much sweeter, he ends the confession with a kiss. As Stede accepts Edwards feelings they both decide to run away together. However, Stede never turned up. Just before the two planned to meet, he was awoken up at gunpoint by Chauncey Badminton who told him that he 'defiles beautiful things'. He reminded him of his crime of killing Nigel, of his family and how he had brought 'histories greatest pirate to ruin'. Stede finds himself agreeing to this and makes the decision to go to back to his former home. Edward is left heartbroken as he finds his way back to the Revenge, alone. He reverts to his old ways as 'Blackbeard', throwing away his old red handkerchief. Throwing away his heart and everything that reminded him of Stede. While Blackbeard began getting rid of his old life as 'Edward', Stede realsied how much he really loved Edward. As his wife (Mary Bonnet) revealed what it was like to be in love with Doug, he started thinking about his time with Edward and how much it meant to him. This was love. The two then used the 'art of fuckery' to fake Stede's death (which worked), but it was too late. Edward and the Ship were gone from the location where it had been last. In this scene we might as well have seen the death of 'Ed' as without Stede, he was just Blackbeard. Afterall, the pair of them are only their best selves when they are together.
Type of ship: Queer Canon
Tumblr media
The 'Our Flags Mean Death' franchise is one of the best series I have personally watched regarding representation and in the way it rejects toxic masculinity. The LGBTQ+ community have suffered at the hands of what is known as 'queer baiting' for so long. This is when through advertisements and interviews with casts ect the TV producers sort of lure the community into watching and promoting their show with a false promise that their will be non-heteronormative couples involved in their franchise. But they don't follow through with this and get our hopes up making us feel lead on (see shark emoji post on BeChloe). This is why Our Flags Means Death was such a breath of fresh air. Actually FOLLOWING THROUGH with what was promised just raised our hopes a little more and allowed more people (who do not get near enough representation through TV shows and movies ect) to feel a bit more seen and also helped people discover who they are when they see people going through the same issues they're going through.
Stede and Ed's relationship was a pleasure to watch. To see two men have such comfort in each other and to see characters talking about their feelings and having breakdowns without feeling any shame or embarrassment was needed in order to challenge the toxic masculinity we see too much in this world and in the media. And to have such positive representations of Queer relationships being healthy was also amazing.
The journey we followed with Stede and Ed (although it ended on a cliffhanger) showed us what love was all about. Trust. Being your true self with each other. Sacrifice. Loving each other when we're at our worst. Loving the parts of the other that they couldn't love themselves. And so much more. And to find out what we hoped would happen, did happen is such a win for the LGBTQ+ community. We can only hope that shows will take a few lessons from this show and that we don't need to fear queer baiting happening as frequently as it does.
Even the show director (David Jenkins) admitted 'that Stede and Blackbeard’s romance was always part of his initial pitch for the series — and one of the things he and the writers found most creatively fulfilling". The opposites attract troupe which lead to the both of them just finding out what each of them actually wanted, fixed with the slow burn and not just the both of them automatically liking each other and showing the development of their relationship felt like a reward and made it feel natural and not forced.
It's safe to say I cannot wait to watch season 2. The only complaint I have for this show is how lonely it makes me feel. We all deserve a relationship like Stede and Ed.

I’ve been in this fandom since March 2022. If you’re like me, you’ve read a good chunk of the fanfic that’s been published, and you have a hard time finding new stuff that’s to your taste. In honour of this, here is my rec list of the fics you definitely want to read but may not have come across!
✨My Gentlebeard/Blackbonnet Fic Rec List✨
Smutty (E)
Short (<4k)
The Good Plan by TheMewsAtTen: Stede treats Ed to some devoted stress relief, including hair brushing. A good cozy read. (4k)
Only You by gayasstheythem: Stede plunders a fancy blindfold in a raid and the sex is kinky but also really wholesome. Lots of tears and laughter and healing. (3.9k)
Mid length (4-8k)
Are You Lonesome Tonight? by RoughWinds: Ed and Stede have some kinky married roleplay sex where Stede plays a neglected housewife and Ed plays the next door neighbor that stepped up. They are achingly in love. (6.5k)
Smoke Signals by Spicy_Soldiers: Ed seduces Stede with some sensual cigar smoking. The imagery is so sexy and vivid that it’s almost dreamlike. (4.7k)
Won’t Rush It Along by camerasparring: Ed and Stede have marathon sex to figure out just how many times Stede’s magic dick can go. Very hot and silly. (6.9k (nice))
Of Oils & Jealousy by @kipli: Stede starts a line of scented olive oils (as he would) and the two of them go to the Republic of Pirates in search of a seller. They meet a pirate that’s a little too happy to meet Stede; Stede is blissfully ignorant of the man’s advances. Insanity ensues—including wild possessive sex. (4.7k)
Friendly Competition (Blackbeard Always Wins) by @cufeilidh: Stede and Ed disagree on who’s turn it is to service top and make the decision with a sex game. This fic makes me laugh every time because it’s so on brand. (4.9k)
sunflowers in the kitchen by dardreamcrash: Ed and Stede pretend to bicker like a married couple in a home goods store and then they go home and fuck nasty about it. Totally absurd and extremely cute, classic over the top in character insanity. (7k)
Long (>8k)
It Was Yellow and Pink by Bazzle: Ed confides that he misses when things were easier and simpler between them, so Stede stages a roleplay to fulfill his desire. Sweetest most healing sex ever (warning tho: undernegotiated kink). (14.9k)
A Sunday Kind of Love by WellSussed: Stede keeps trying to propose but Ed’s busy work schedule gets in the way; when their time tables finally align, Stede spoils Ed with a New Year’s to remember. Another one that makes my heart explode. (8.8k)
Spicy and Swearful
The Kissing Game by veeagainst: Set after s2ep5, Ed comes up with a kissing game as a way to take things slow with Stede. It works until it doesn’t, complete with lots of pining. (8k, M)
Other Delicacies and Delights by reddiegays: Stede and Ed spice up their married life by flirting across the bar they co-own. (1.3k, T)
Continue to Continue to Pretend by skeletonsandroundabouts: reunion fic written pre s2, but in tune with s2 tone. Stede stumbles upon a sulking Ed in a bar and they pretend not to know each other. Stede is a bombastic menace who thinks the ruse is working, but Ed is also a dumbass. Makes me laugh out loud every time I read it, and the character voices are perfect. (4.8k, T)
Fluff
Permanent Ink by insidethevoid: Ed is the cool distinctly tattooed step dad. Hijinks ensure when Alma wants to be cool like him. (5.2k, G)
Thy, Sweet, Love Remembered by @kazoo-world: Ed and Stede promise to always go to sleep together. It’s always the perfect remedy for the day’s frustrations. Look, yes, I wrote this and I’m biased, but every time I read it I can’t stop thinking about how mind blowingly cute it is. (1.1k, T)
Modern AU Meetcutes
Our Tesco Means Death by shipmates: Stede gets a job at Tesco after leaving his old life and notices and is noticed by his kind and smoking manager, Ed. Reading about Stede trying very hard to impress Ed by shoplifting makes me laugh rambunctiously. (21k, G)
the happiest place on earth is here (with you) by @medievill: Stede and Ed strike up a whirlwind romance at Disney World with Ed showing Stede around his usual haunts. Equal parts heart-wrenching and heartwarming. (33k, M)
Unlocked by @festiveferret: Newly divorced Stede accidentally breaks into rockstar Ed’s apartment thinking it’s his own. They fall in love as they hang out together. Ed has two beautiful and perfect guard cats and Stede is perfectly in character levels of insane. (15.5k, T)

Doflamingo, your lover had just arrived from another business trip that lasted for weeks—leaving you alone once again for so long.
It truly is annoying, so you can't avoid it but argue with the former Celestial Dragon about it.
“Doflamingo, just what do you prioritize more!? Is it me, or your goddamn pirate business!!?” You shouted, anger boiling inside you upon seeing your lover come home as if nothing happened, as if he wasn't gone for a long time.
“My darling, you're important to me, but—I have business to manage. The business that will keep you living in paradise...!” Doflamingo defends, the usual grin on his face slowly fading away when you threw a tantrum, tossing things at him.
“So what if I'm in paradise when my own lover isn't here to enjoy it with me!?” You hissed, tears welling up as your heart clenched, recalling your lonely days and nights without Doflamingo.
“Y/n that... Knowing that you feel this way pains me. But don't get so mad right now, here, look. I bought you a lot of beautiful jewelries!” Showcasing the things he had bought for you, you frowned.
“I don't need any of those, Doflamingo, because what I need is you, your accompaniment for me. But it seems like you don't need me as much as I need you, with all those women fawning over you.” You stated, clenching your fist as your lover sighed.
“You're the only woman I love, Y/n, darling.” He says with a smile, walking towards you and holding your hands in his, “And of course, it may not seem like it, but I need you as much as you need me, I love you.”
Hearing his sweet words, your anger slightly subsided, a heavy sigh escaping your lips.
“Shut it.” You growled, trying to retract your hands away from Doflamingo who prevented you from doing so, instead, pulling you close to him, embracing you as he wiped the tears from your eyes.
“Hey, c'mon. Don't be angry with me, mhm? I'm here now, with you. I love you.” Doffy repeats, bending down to level your height and kissing your lips that you immediately wiped, pouting.
“I hate you.” You muttered, pushing the blond who grinned away from you.
“No you don't hate me, you love me, fufufu~” Chuckles Doflamingo, engulfing you with his arms to a tight embrace, kissing you again.
“Now, say it back, darling.” He cooes, lifting your chin up to make you look at him.
“....Fine.” Sighing in defeat, you then clinged yourself on your lover, “Love you too, Doffy... So don't leave me again for so long, okay?” “Yes, yes, my darling~”

VISIONS OF ATLANTIS Announces New Album, 'Pirates II – Armada'
Tumblr media
The pirates of VISIONS OF ATLANTIS are about to take listeners on their heaviest symphonic adventure yet with their new studio album, titled "Pirates II – Armada", set for release on July 5, 2024 via Napalm Records. The new successor to their high-charting previous release, "Pirates" (2022),is set as high as the waves cresting the Jolly Roger — taking everything that has been achieved to date to another level. With the second chapter of the pirates' saga, VISIONS OF ATLANTIS prove that they are more than ready to claim the crown of symphonic metal.
Today, the crew centered around pirate queen Clèmentine Delauney and brave captain Michele Guaitoli unveil their first single and title track, "Armada", together with an official music video that draws the listeners into the exciting universe of VISIONS OF ATLANTIS. With this track, the band pushes its metal attitude farther than ever before! The track immediately show how driving, rich, and banging the hymn of a pirate army could be.
Ship's log: July 5, 2024; High Seas
"A new day of sailing begins, the wind on our side, and the sea speaks of recent battles. The air feels fresh - Hypocrisy, greed, envy - hearts of the old world finally disclose their deluded truth. Old leaders are losing ground, their lies are getting worse, and darkness creeps in. Each sunny day hides a coming storm, nature testing our strength for the last battle.
"We've become pirates as their counterparts, free-spirited and true at heart. Navigating storms that try to make us doubt, we see the light in the darkness. The old truth is fading, making room for a new story. Our destiny is in our hands, in our hearts, in every step we take. Reconnecting with ourselves, we touch the essence of life we share with all creatures. Together, unstoppable, connected to the truth, guided by the sun and storms.
"We'll rule the oceans, the mainland, every street, every house, spreading hope. Our pirate cries will last for centuries, with ancestors humming our tunes, our words sung in the new world we create. Our glory will live on forever. United as one force, one army, under a final ARMADA."
Emotions, depth, richness of sound. Not only a record, but a true hurricane of feelings is what VISIONS OF ATLANTIS delivers with the new album, "Pirates II - Armada". On a journey in which listeners face their own battles and cannot resist joining the "Armada", VISIONS OF ATLANTIS will have listeners facing the "Monsters" inside them, with catchy melodies destined to endlessly stick in their mind. The uplifting "Tonight I'm Alive" surprises and captivates with the rhythms of a pirate party on the eve of combat, with the electrifying rumble of a hurricane — a unique, uncharted showcase of talent from VISIONS OF ATLANTIS. The burning flames of "Hellfire" enchant the listener before the sweetness of delicate melodies accompany them "Underwater". The cinematic adventure of seven-minute-plus masterpiece "The Dead Of The Sea" conjures the salty scent of the sea, making the listener feel — in every melodic twist and theatrical orchestral hit — the cannons firing and the battle raging. Listeners will shed a tear while mourning under the melody of "Ashes To The Sea".
"Pirates II - Armada" track listing:
01. To Those Who Choose To Fight 02. The Land Of The Free 03. Monsters 04. Tonight I'm Alive 05. Armada 06. The Dead Of The Sea 07. Ashes To The Sea 08. Hellfire 09. Collide 10. Magic Of The Night 11. Underwater 12. Where The Sky And Ocean Blend
