I just keep rewatching the last few minutes of "The Innkeeper" and weeping.

honest to god, and I say this under oath, nothing has healed me more from the absolute shitfuck of whatever the fuck happened over the past 3 years than combining my spirituality books and reading fanfiction until my eyes hurt…

Maybe I'm seeing it wrong. But the first one (the audience's pov) shows what Ed really felt. Awe. Vulnerability and Falling in Love. Because this is the first time anyone has ever told Ed that he could be more than just a rough and tumble pirate. He could be soft too.

But the Stede pov has a different look all together. It comes off (to me) as suspicious, confused and even a bit of disgust? Because Stede always does something wrong. No one has ever liked the same things the same way he does. Why would Blackbeard be any different.

So of course when Blackbeard takes a deep breath and takes a step towards Stede, he's gonna be on guard. According to the script of life this is the part where he gets bullied for being weird again.

But when you keep looking at the second gif. you see just a little bit of that same love in the first one. But it's so faint that it takes a few re-watches to catch.

you wear fine things well ↳ the night in question vs. stede's recollection

Taika could have so easily effed off and abandoned this project for his Disney marvel BS Star Wars crap.

instead he’s FULLY into playing Blackbeard, looking after his friends, and giving his heart, soul, body, mind to OFMD!

smart guy! And loves Rhys and David, as well as NZ and the other cast and Crew. So much respect for his life choices.
