you had me at 'you fucking twat!' 1/7

You'd think months of arguing with his ex-boyfriend/business partner would teach Izzy not to get romantically involved with people he works with. No such luck, though. He's still dumb as rocks. In his defence — have you seen Sam Bellamy???

Long dead husband comes back : shenanigans enssues

Hornigold's Izzy was the worst, of course. A version of himself that never escaped that terrible place, who lived his life as little more than an object. He still has nightmares about all the things Baz told them, about all the things he didn't.

It doesn't really surprise him, after the first ones, not at its root. To be Izzy Hands is to be someone's after all, though seeing his own face on someone so fundamentally different to him never gets less weird. The people who these other Izzys attached themselves too often left him with more questions than answers. Jack's Izzy, he can understand, from a certain view, though the man himself felt like a fever dream. The less said about Stede's Izzy the better, he's never going to forgive him for the ideas he put in his Stede's head.

Then there was Sam's Izzy.

The first thing anyone noticed about him was that he was happy. He smiled and laughed without thought, and went through life with an ease Izzy didn't think he had ever felt. The crew took to him immediately, accepting him in a way they never did the other Izzys, and certainly not their own. They prodded him and asked him endless questions, and he took every touch without a flinch and answered every question without a hint of a grumble. This Izzy was free. He was open, unburdened, trusting. He was happy.

Sam's Izzy was the one that hurt the most to see. He could accept the worst that Hornigold could've offered, that he would have suffered and been broken. It was infinitely harder to see that he had a chance to be this happy. That it slipped through his fingers.

He's never looked back before, but now? Seeing what might've been? He can't stop himself from considering the possibility that maybe he made the wrong choice back then, going with Ed.

my last bingo fill for the prompt: "In case I don't see you again."

I just have less than 10 hours to finish my bingo so this is why it's rushed lol

Please wait for my long-ish fake dating Bellhands fic that I will post soon!

God, I love BellHands. This ship does not exist. Sam is not in this show. He will probably never be in this show. If he is, he probably won’t look like Jemaine Clement or Matt Berry or Rahul Kohli or any of our fanart. He almost definitely won’t be Izzy’s long-lost husband or newfound love or childhood friend or old rival. There is absolutely no basis for any of this. There are novel-length fanfics. There are common tropes and shared fanon. There are three pages on AO3. That’s more than there are for Izzy with some canon characters. This ship does not exist. This is a shared fever dream. This is our OTP.

as much as I love freaky toxic unhealthy divorcecore Edizzy, deep down, I love wholesome soft unconditional love Bellhands more. Alas, Sam Bellamy is NOT EVEN IN THE SHOW

[laceratedlamiaceae]

What your favorite Izzy ship says about you

Blackhands

Your parents were your only model for what a relationship should look like and you never really got over it when they got divorced

Gentlehands

You're capable of basic media literacy and you can pick up on obvious sexual tension

Steddyhands

You're basic (not that there's anything wrong with that)

Cjizzy

You're not gay as in happy, you're Queer as in fuck you (also you're into some really nasty shit)

Jackedhands

You didn't get to attend any frat parties in college and you don't really regret it but you are curious what they would have been like

Stackedhands

You just really hate making choices

Ouizzy

You've seen those posts about introverts being "adopted" by extroverts and you're still waiting for that to happen to you

Rizzy

You're fascinated by the dialectics of violence and tenderness and the homoerotic undertones of both and also you're really into those posts about soup

Sprizzy

You use the word 'twink' as a synonym for 'gay'

Butthands

You're neurodivergent and extremely sexy

Bellhands

You're so picky when it comes to potential partners that you've decided to give up entirely in favor of an idealized fictional boyfriend

[maxer-blaster]

There's no reason we can't have Sam Bellamy all up in this bitch.

Imagine it.

Stede was once the rich pretty boy pirate. But he left all that behind.

Ed was once dating the rich pretty boy pirate, *who is just a pirate now.

And now it's Izzy dating the super hot, super rich, pretty pirate.

Hell, make him younger than Ed too.

Stede/Ed have to deal with not having money.

Meanwhile Izzy takes the crew out on the town "get whatever the fuck you like, Sam's got the bill"

[mysteriouslybluepirate]

IMAGINE If they bring Sam Bellamy, a pirate of legend who should have died during a shipwreck who miraculously survived his trip, in s3 of OFMD?

Show that he is essentially a ghost coming back to life, a dead man walking now with the upper hand, living each day like it's his last?

-AND IZZY REMAINS DEAD-

I would just scream.

[matttheratking]

Pls October 5 come sooner I'm losing brain matter

[izzyspussy]

Interest check I guess

What if I run an Izzy rarepair kink meme/prompt fest?

Also should "rarepair" in this case include sprizzy/sprigghands or is that not rare enough?

[arsenicflame]

every time I try to give Sam some character flaws a little voice says 'but doesn't Izzy deserve a pretty, perfect boyfriend?' and you know what? he does <3

[reinarandraw]

Hello tumblr! Long time not post! Here's my silly modern Bellhands that kinda belong to my Coffee Philosophy au. This is also my entry for Izzy Hands Bingo for: Modern AU, Music, Cake, Summer, and Books!

You can find Izzy's holiday pictures without the text (and also my little ramble about this animatic) under the cut!

If you're wondering who took the photos, the answer is Sam. They are the pictures from their summer vacation. I had a lil trouble when looking for reference photos. Why are most luxury vacation destinations beaches? These two can't go to beaches or yach because someone has severe thalassophobia😩

This summer vacation is actually 'canon' in Coffee Philosophy AU, which reminds me that I should really finish writing that story...

[doks-aux]

I just want Izzy to feel safe with someone. I want him to be held, to be loved, to be appreciated. I want someone to tell him he makes them happy. I want him to be chosen, just him, specifically him, just like he is, again and again and again. I want him to have what he’s given so freely for years. I want someone to see him, see all the places where he’s torn off pieces of himself for someone else’s sake and fill them up with little pieces of their own.

[orangesodaliker]

so he wasn’t in season two. that sucks.

SO HERES TO SAM IN SEASON THREE

MR BELLAMY COME GET UR MAN HES DEAD
