Несем вам порцию стекла времён пост-первого сезона 💔

Post-season 1, inspired by "Never Love an Anchor" by Crane Wives 💔

🔗 archiveofourown.org/works/71073216

#ofmd #ofmdart #gentlebeard

Four-panel comic:
1. Ed and Stede amidst the sunflowers, standing close, their foreheads pressed together. They are both smiling, Ed's hands are cupping Stede's face.
"On some level, I think, I always understood".
2. The shot of a stack of books with a sunflower atop.
"That these hands of mine were clumsy, not clever".
3. Beardless Ed in the library, holding a sunflower close to his face. He's surrounded by kraken tentacles, seemingly growing out of his hair. There are two framed pictures in the left corner: one of Stede, and another of a lighthouse by a cliff.
"And I tried to do the best that I could".
4. Several bottles on the table, a wilted sunflower among them. Some red liquid is spilt all over part of the table — is it wine? Blood? We can't tell.
"But try as I might I couldn't bring myself to hold you".

You should DEFINITELY go read this fic—it's beautifully written, and you can feel the poetry of the Italian language even through auto translation (or in our professional translation into Russian).
And don't forget to leave the author of the original fic kudos and some nice words, we DO insist 🥹💙

Перевод с итальянского — "В глубинах моря".
The translation from Italian — "In the Depth of the Sea".
Ed helps a merperson to get free and, unwillingly, helps himself too. Now he has a new goal in life — to find that merperson.

Стид немного ошибся мятой, которую заботливо высадил на могиле Иззи 🌚

Whoops! The wrong kind of mint! That was embarrassing 🤭🌚
🔗 archiveofourown.org/works/71058516

#ofmd #ofmdart #gentlebeard #izzy

Comic art of 6 panels:
1. Stede: "The mint tea will calm you down, Izzy. Have a cup."
2. Izzy and Stede arguing, Izzy: " The mint will only calm me if I eat it from your grave!"
3. Stede's hands planting a tiny green plant.
4. A further shot of Stede planting mint on Izzy's grave.
5. Stede touching Izzy's cross: "Sorry, Izzy, but it looks like the mint will be growing on your grave."
6. Mint growing all over the grave.

Comic art of four panels:
1. Ed and Stede arguing over Izzy's grave.
2. Ed and Stede holding hands on the same spot, but it's daylight and there are sunflowers growing on the grave.
3. Sunflowers and catmint growing all over the grave; several cats are rolling on the ground, looking high on catnip.
4. Izzy's ghost, exasperated: "BONNET! That was catmint! I'm going to fucking KILL you!"

"Sometimes the seagull can bring the soul back from the dead to put the wrong things right."
Originally from the movie 'The Crow', 1994, but our show has seagulls instead of crows, so...

Человек и чайка — а что было между? Показываем!

We know Buttons turned into a seagull. But what did he look like in-between? Our team pictured it and made this statuette by hand.
This one is our gift to @mrbuttons284266.bsky.social 💙

Buttons mid-transmogrification — he has his human head and seagull body. One his eye is a yellow, bird eye; another is still human, blue.
