Wishing the happiest of birthdays to the one and only Pirate Daddy, @david-jenkins.bsky.social! It has been a blast working with you this year, especially hosting the summer 2025 family reunion.

It is not hyperbole to say that this all would not exist without you ❤️ 🏴‍☠️ 🦄

A photo from The New Uni-Con convention in June 2025 of the guests causing chaos. David Fane is laying in front of everyone like Lucius is about to sketch him, laughing cheekily. Con O'Neill is gesturing at the Fane Buffett with a grin, and wearing his signature cap. David Jenkins has one hand on David Fane's back, and is gesturing off screen as if to say 'one moment'. Ruibo Qian is just behind David Jenkins, looking down at the chaos occurring, most of their face covered by their black baseball cap, except their smile. Nathan Foad is stood at the end, looking a cross between amused and concerned, reaching down for David Fane.

This immediately reminded me of what @david-jenkins.bsky.social said at #BehindOurFlag

"People sleep on rhys darby. Rhys Darby is pound for pound one of my favorite actors"

It makes me feel insane that this man acted his whole bottom off in OFMD and they took it and his fancy outfits away 😡😭

That is correct! As well as creating Taika’s iconic Blackbeard look, Christine Wada did the costume design for S1&2 of #Loki,
Interior Chinatown, Zombieland: Double Tap and Bridesmaids!

Bennett McKenna @bennettmckenna.bsky.social · 4d

Christine Wada did the costume design for #Loki, right?

Thank you! I managed to completely miss this question, @madderslightly.bsky.social! Yes, unless otherwise stated (and barring any tech failures) all our events VOD will be available for one year following the event.

Slightly weird one, but any #OFMD pirates on the timeline called Charlotte, or have a pirate friend called Charlotte you want a bomb present for?

I don't think it's possible to pick one favourite moment from Interview as a Crew with Dave & Anapela, but this is right up there. Fang / Auntie for life!

These two are honestly the funniest and sweetest people ever, but that was just hilarious.

Oops, I thought this was a comment on the clip I just posted! 🤦🏻😅

Siren Events @siren-events.bsky.social · 9d

This is a ship of nothing but joy.

(And I had to release the gallery view so everyone could see Dave's reaction to Anapela saying that Auntie and Fang would get together.)

Siren Events @siren-events.bsky.social · 10d

It is possible to have a hangover from pure joy? Because I've definitely had one today.

There is magic in the combined laughter of these two beautiful, amazing, hilarious human beings.

(My laugh was equally loud and unhinged, but I kept myself on mute.)

Truly. I feel like most non-dairy alternatives have come a looooong way in the 15 odd years since I had to give it up, except cheese. Everything else I can live with the alternatives, and even enjoy, but oh how I miss a good brie, stilton, halloumi, extra mature cheddar.... 😭

Siren Events @siren-events.bsky.social · 10d

As I wailed, having slightly lost my mind late on Sunday at #TNUC, at Con - I know what GOOD CHEESE TASTES LIKE. It's the ultimate bodily betrayal 😭

I LOVE that this came up on my feed today 😍 As we learnt during yesterday’s Interview as a Crew that Dave and Anapela are *here* for the Fang/Auntie shipping and spin off show.

(And that Fang is easy 😂)

OKAY, YOU WIN DAVID
Fang and Auntie have a Spa Day
#OFMD #OFMDfanart

Color sketch of Fang and Auntie having a Spa Day a la Fang and Roach from that one post credit scene in season 2. Both of them have clay masks smeared across their faces and are sitting on the grassy bank with their feet in the water. Fang is holding a bouquet of pink and white daisies and grinning so hard his eyes are shut. Auntie looks somewhat unimpressed but possibly willing to be won over, hands folded in her lap. The shadow of an eel is visible swimming toward Fang.
