Get ready to undo some buttons because on Friday, November 21st, we’re celebrating the Fall Front Friday Fall Festival!

Make something new, share something old, and most importantly, think about all your favorites in fall front pants 🥰

1/2
An extremely cool graphic for the Fall Front Friday Fall Festival. Friday, November 21st. Text reads: "Put your favorite character in fall-front pants! Create something new! Share something old! #FallFrontFriday " The border of the graphic is closeups of fall front pants worn by various characters in Our Flag Means Death, with fall leaves placed over the front of their pants.

For #taketwotuesday here's the batshit holiday twit fic I co-wrote a few years ago wherein Stede & Ed try to one up each other with their decorations. Featuring newly-out Stede, evil Badmintons, supportive Izzy, light-up cephalopods & lots & lots of shenanigans. archiveofourown.org/works/48755203

I don't think I'll ever get over how deeply unhinged the OFMD Season 2 writers room was like, I thought fandom creators were swinging for the fences but what do you mean Ed found a wedding cake topper of Stede and gave its bride a Kraken Ed makeover and spent night playing with them and crying??
Photo of the bridal wedding topper from S2 of OFMD. Ed gave this topper a makeover using his black makeup/face paint, darkening her hair, adding a beard, drawing on tattoos, and letting it drip down the skirt of her dress. You cannot beat the best at their own game, much respect to the hingeless writers room 🫡

Happy 9th of December! ✨ (9th already!?)

Behind today’s door hides a beautiful piece of holiday art by @inkirtis.bsky.social 😍🎄

Digitally altered close-up image of Roach from Our Flag Means Death. Roach seems to be bent over a table (maybe surveying Lucius’ dying finger in ep. 6 of s1? 🤔) and looking to the upper left corner of the photo. He’s got a cigarette of sorts in his hand. The photo has been digitally altered by drawing a Santa hat on his head (the end of the Santa hat is drawn to look as though it’s resting on the table). The handwritten text at the bottom of the image reads: “THE 9TH DOOR”.

the kid's new bedtime album is the new mountain goats album which means a lot of very weird conversations in the dark

"are the stars really going to be going out? or is he being poetic?"

"what does 'clutches of the flesh' mean?"

"how did his head get hurt?"

"can we buy a boat?"

It makes me extremely happy that you have Reno Cure headcanons. And for that, I'll let you know that at the end of July 1999, the Reno boys have a blowout party to commemorate forty years together, even though they have never agreed on what date is formally their anniversary. 🌵💍(1/3)

Here's an oddity - we keep finding these tiny plastic candles washed up. Does anyone recognise them? We've been finding them for about a year now on both the north and south coasts of Cornwall. Anyone else finding them? They're about 4cm long.

Welp, I just bashed out a 2000 word outline for the final chapter of When I Think About You in some kind of fugue state.

That makes the outline for the chapter about the same length as each of the other complete chapters...

Anyway, have this teeny, tiny snip

Happy 8th of December ✨🥰

Behind today’s door we have a holiday party surprise for you! 🎊🎄🥳 @ofmdzb.bsky.social has written us a wonderful oneshot and I cannot wait for all of us to get the chance to read it! 🤩

Digitally altered still photo from episode 8 of season 1 of Our Flag Means Death. It’s the moment where everyone is on deck, looking up at Roach who’s about to do ‘yardies’ (jumping off the mast 🤦‍♀️). (“Everyone” refers to – in order from left to right: Wee John, Lucius, Frenchie, Pete, Stede, Oluwande, Ed, and CJ – it’s from the episode where Jim is off dealing with Jackie.) The image has been digitally altered by drawing Santa hats on everyone. Two of the hats are different from the rest: Pete is, once again, wearing the snow-dotted, royal blue ‘Tuborg beer’ Santa hat — and CJ’s Santa hat is unusually short and ‘perky’, while also being significantly more filthy than the rest 🙈😬😅 At the bottom of the image the handwritten text reads: “THE 8TH DOOR”

Day 7: So... Stede surprises Ed with breakfast, and not only does the infamous Blackbeard love it, he offers to teach him how to be a bloodthirsty pirate?! And he's serious?!! And he tells you the day you spent together was the most fun he's had at sea in ages?!!!

A drawer of an advent calendar has been removed from the main calendar for a close-up. A small wooden number 7 that is painted gold is on the upper right corner. The faux aged paper is colored tan and the following phrase is printed in black toner: "It's the most fun I've had at sea in ages." A tiny glass jar of orange marmalade with an oval black-and-white label that reads: Tiptree Net Wt 28g 1oz Wilkin & Sons Ltd Estd. 1885 Orange Marmalade Fine Cut Ingredients: Sugar, Oranges Made in England Tiptree - Essex - England

Happy #FallFrontFriday, ya filthy animals!

Chapter 3 is up, in which Ed imagines how the clothing swap could have gone...

I don't mean to toot my own horn, but this chapter is especially 🔥 even if I do say so myself

Happy #FallFrontFriday! I wrote a thingy!

5 times Stede and Ed got off alone, and 1 time they got off together

Or, Season 1 retold via the medium of wanks

Part 1 is up - in which Stede enjoys some alone time with a bodice ripper...

First 6 days of @ofmdsac.bsky.social 's advent calendar of Stede-coded treasures 😍
Front "cover" of an advent calendar designed to look like Stede's journal from ofmd. Arranged on top of it are: a necklace with charm of the potted fern, a book keychain with Pinocchio on the cover, a bracelet that says "I Am Aqdequate," a pin that says "Gentleman Pirate," a temporary tattoo that says "Polite Menace" (words appearing backwards), and a necklace with a lighthouse charm.
