Wait a minute wait a minute
Ed didn't know what retirement even was in season one, but Anne and Mary are revealed to be retired in season two
Did he think they were dead?? Just talking to Izzy like "damn, such a shame Anne and Mary are gone. They were great 😔😔"
Meanwhile, Izzy, fully aware of what retirement is and that Anne and Mary left to become antique collectors, and just thinks Ed's being dramatic is like ".....yep."

Ann Bonney and Mary Reed show up on the Revenge and Izzy hides under Stede's bed because otherwise they'll harassed him like toddlers with a strange cat

Has anyone pointed out yet that these scenes are shot with the same lighting?
For both couples, everything is burning down around them (literally and figuratively) and they seek solace in each other. Their love for each other is as warm and glowing as the lighting.

Happy birthday Edward! May you find many well furnished chests today 😏

I think that more romcoms should have a bitter domestically violent couple that mirrors our lead romance show up during the toxic break up arc as a warning symbolizing to our leads that they need to get their shit together or they’ll end up like them. I think that was really wonderful in ofmd 😭

Mary and Anne are right, Ed DOES have a type and it’s overly loyal heartbreakers

Anne and Mary are the type of couple who will invite people for game night just to prove they are the greatest most in sync couple in the neighborhood but halfway through monopoly they are screaming about some minor grievance from a decade ago when one of them didn't compliment the other new hairstyle or some shit as if it was the end of the world then a couple wine glasses after they are making everyone uncomfortable with PDA

There's something about season two that I've wanted to talk about, but I've been struggling to find a way to word. But I'm just going for it
In season two of Our Flag Means Death, they introduce six new female characters (Zheng, Archie, Mary Reed, Anne Bonney, Auntie, and Hellcat Mary). I think this is absolutely fantastic since season one had very few female characters (the only notable ones that come to mind are Mary Bonnet, Jim's nana, and Spanish Jackie). So I'm really, really glad new characters are being introduced! That's great! And I actually adore all the new female characters we get!
It's just very odd to me that out of six new characters, four of their main focuses are about being in a romantic relationship and one of the remaining two is mainly a mother figure.
I dunno! I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing, it's just odd and it's something I picked up on. Anne and Mary are both extremely sexual (not inherently a bad thing) and are meant to kinda just parallel Stede and Ed and then never appear again. Zheng is a ruthless pirate queen (who I absolutely adore, by the way) but her motivation mostly surrounds her crush on Oluwande. I think there's genuine potential in a character who is tough and manipulative to gain an advantage where she needs to, but finds herself falling in love with a softie, but that's most of what we get with Zheng and we don't actually SEE her enough to understand her as a character beyond that and her auntie issues. Archie is a fantastic character, but we really only see her interact with Jim and Oluwande.
I don't think it's bad to give female characters romance arcs! I actually love pretty much all of the romantic relationships they end up in. It's just... odd to me that that's most of what we get. I dunno, I was mostly wondering if anyone else noticed that too

Contemporary fiction and rumours are still part of history tho. Were the actual historical figures Bonny and Reed lovers? No idea. Is them falling in love part of pirate mythology that dates back to 18th century sources? Yes.

My only complaint about OFMD season two is that Anne Bonny and Mary Reed did not get enough screen time like have such a cool history so I wish they were utilized more, they could have formed a pirate queen group with Zheng or showed up during the finale. But never the less great show
