It's finished. After 3+ years and over 200,000 words, my Steddyhands series "The Depths" is complete. The final chapter and epilogue of "The Great Below" went up just now, so if you've been waiting for it to be complete to start reading, have at it!

Steddyhands peeps who like dark fics - I implore you to check out this fic by JustDanny! It's beautifully written and dripping with that good-good angst, and the fact that it only has 25 kudos as of this writing feels like a cosmic mistake. Help me fix that, yeah? (And maybe drop some comments too!)

THANK you I feel like I'm the only centrist on this issue in the entire fandom, it would be great if more of us felt wanted to start speaking up.
are we far enough into post-s2 for me to say i'm a person who a) mainly watches the show for ed/stede, and also b) likes izzy as a character, but also c) am completely fine with his death? are we at the point yet where it's okay to say that, or are we still super polarized?

This for me but with a side of Anne Bonney for femme days.

Having written an angsty, gun-related Blackhands fic way back when Season 1 ended, I cannot stress enough how I thought I was hallucinating this scene the first time I watched it.

![Izzy is leaning back in an armchair, arms crossed and head tipped all the way back. There are two rings on his tie. He is asleep with Zzz above him. Beside him, it reads: [Stede and Ed got too into the roleplay].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ehrff35ymlwurebsait7gmsh/bafkreibjwwg44ldarx4qpzyorwbme3apcr2bgn2yyp3yhtf5cljrt22iwi@jpeg)

It took forever for me to finish Chapter 17 of The Great Below, which means I've been sitting on this lovely image by @emmalinestrange.bsky.social, just waiting for the chance to use it. Anyway, come and read this chapter! Stuff happens!

I’m going to be controversial for a second. Ed in season 1 episode 10 with his earring and his terrible overdramatic make up was so hot and I wish we had more of that look

So I hear we got confirmation that Ed got the "Trust No One" tattoo between s1 and s2. Curious about how that might have gone? I've got a fic for that!

I definitely think that's what Izzy thought was happening at some point!
Do you ever think Ed tried to kill Izzy, or tried to get Izzy to commit suicide so they could go into the afterlife together? #EdIzzy

Yo has anyone written or drawn Izzy riding Stede while holding a knife to
his throat? Cause the image just popped into my head and I don't think I can sleep now.

Edward Teach is just as cringe as Stede Bonnet, he just does it while looking hot in leather with a badass reputation so no one comments on it, I will die on this hill
Also never not losing my mind over the fact that Ed is a fucking NERD oh my GOD that little rope swing kills me every 👏🏻 single 👏🏻 time 👏🏻

I may never have figured out I was non-binary if not for OFMD. Not only because of @vico-ortiz.bsky.social and their amazing performance as Jim, but also the rest of the cast and writers and the warmth, humor and love they brought to the show. It made me believe I could be myself and still be loved.
