Gaywatson qrt’d rae/thisreader to add fanart and the comments were collapsed. “View full thread” option is visible and the first comment we see is
Citrussyndicate said “Nigel Badminton, size queen” needs to be a tag on ao3

This story is so special and well, suffice to say that I'm incredibly excited to be a part of it! For #WIPWednesday here's a snip of an initial color sketch that I cranked out right after getting matched because I could not waaaaaaait. Ily bb Stede!

a little #WIPWednesday for the upcoming #ofmdbb25....

A snip of soft memories for Ed 💚

#ofmd #ofmdfic

(Ps the arts from @gaywatson.bsky.social and @self-induljennt.bsky.social are going to absolutely knock your socks off)

Above all of those memories was the boy.

Floating trees and feather grass and swirling colors and the boy.

It was a simple world. Safe. Quiet and patient. The boy didn’t avoid him on bad days, just existed with kindness. Kept up with him on good days, as good as days could be back then. If Ed wanted to climb a tree, the boy followed, golden hair bouncing as he shifted from branch to branch. If Ed wanted to wade in the shallow stream, the boy hopped right in, hazel eyes sparkling with joyful mischief. They never spoke, but they never needed to. Ed always knew where to find him, and the boy always knew who Ed was. He watched Ed like Ed was interesting, like a curious mystery to solve, and Ed worried he might actually do it. Figure him out. Find his secrets. He felt too exposed sometimes. He didn’t feel exposed enough.

what you will do is look at the beautiful art @rysiutokwiat.bsky.social made of the lyhap boys. @littlefingies.bsky.social gifted me a commission which was truly the nicest thing ever especially because it produced this lovely rendering of that first dream sequence in the fic (linked below)

what is basically a screenshot of like your heart’s a pomegranate. ed is cutting up a cucumber and leaning back to bite stede’s neck. stede has a serene and soft look on his face. there is blood coming from the bite mark. they are both shirtless. there is a second view of the two of them from the back.

petrichor #CrewForLife #SaveOFMD @gheyandwoke.bsky.social · Jul 11

I made this one early in the renewal campaign days 😆

Multi-panel Ant-Man meme. Ant Man says: "So OFMD got cancelled?" Luis says, "Yeah, but we weren't ready to let it go. So we started harassing Max in their social media posts and called them on the phone. Casey Bloys said the numbers weren't there even though they totally were. Then he called on Gay Twitter to support The Gilded Age and Gay Twitter was like hell nah. We accused Zaslav of insider trading."

Luis continues: "We raised $20k to put a billboard in Times Square. And to fly a plane over Max's headquarters. OFMD got nominated for a GLAAD award and Max said jack shit about it. All this time we're getting the petition up to like 85k signatures. Dad came on Instagram and pitched the show to other streamers. So since then we've been contacting Netflix, Amazon, and Apple TV."

Luis continues: "Astroglide joined the crew and we did a watch-along with them and #LubeAsACrew was trending. We did that twice. Then Max said they were worried about violence in season 2, Dad called bullshit. We started getting a lot of major press coverage for our campaign. Dad posts a picture of a street in NYC and we all freak out. Some drama goes down with Renew As a Crew, idk."

Luis continues: "We do a bunch of watchalongs of related shows and movies. Season 2 airs in the UK and we get Wee John Wondays again. Rhys joins Cameo and makes heartwarming videos that make us cry. Dad's been really quiet so we hope he's in negotiations. And that's been the first 30 days in the gravy basket."

Ant-Man stares at Luis.

Actual photo from the day I came this close to driving our 13' RV into a bridge (and had to back it 360° off an entry ramp to escape 😭).

Told @tightenupmate.bsky.social and she somehow magicked it into this perfect fic, toy piano stuck on a loop and all. Poison into positivity, I love it so much!!

photo from a truck dashboard of a highway overpass labeled "11'7" clearance." you can't see it, but the RV attached to this truck is over 13' tall. fuckkkkkkk

Like TBK itself, ch8 is a slow build AND it’s going to be longer than expected 😂. We’re far enough in that it’s got some real momentum under it. self-propelled now. I am extremely very bad at hitting the brakes once this happens. Unfortunately I have to pivot whether I like it or not (I DO NOT)

Feelin spicy feisty after a fight with my computer and tablet this morning so you get some of my spicy art for #TakeTwoTuesday. Here's @ophelia5wims.bsky.social and @omgcocaptains.bsky.social's Partnered boys doing Jeep things.

#nsfwOFMD #ofmd #OurFlagMeansDeath

Drawing of Ed and Stede from Our Flag Means Death. They're in the backseat of a modern Jeep. They're both naked. Stede is sitting in Ed's lap while Ed jerks him off. Stede's consciousness is somewhere several miles above them. Ed's completely lost in watching Stede's face. Sunset oranges, purples, and blues are peeking behind them.

A rant about asking artists to define what consent looks like

CW: gender-based violence in European art

In addition to the ridiculous notion that a drawing is an entity that can communicate consent, what bsky is asking artists to do is to decide what consent *looks* like. 🧵 1/?
#bskycensorship

Ash G. (the G is for Ghost) @kilomonster.art · 17d

To me, the issue is that you cannot apply the concept of consent to fiction because consent requires consciousness. Fiction is not conscious. The characters do not actually exist. So how is there any determination of consent? Bsky has not defined this in the ToS update. #bskycensorship
