@halfahundredcats yesss also thiss, like the juxtaposition of it all and just the way they defy expectations of how they’re perceived is one of the biggest reasons this particular pair constantly lives in my mind rent free

Thinky thoughts about gentlebeard and their own versions of protectiveness towards each other, with Ed’s “I will keep you safe from the whole world even if it kills me” kinda way, and Stede’s “I will kill the whole world for you to keep you safe” kinda way

#like wow this ship is really real #blackbeard and the gentleman pirate #but it’s really softie ed and chaotic stede #ed no longer wants to be blackbeard for a long time #and gets the chance to just immediately be his true soft self in front of stede from the get-go #feeling safe with him as they bond over fine fabrics #they truly make the smoothest seam of leather and silk together #then on the other hand #stede’s chaos incarnate who happens to be a gentleman #literally abandons family to become a pirate captain #despite being overly under qualified in such a dangerous field #the type of lunatic to pick up sliced noses from the nose jar he broke #admits he isn’t the least bit guilty of accidentally killing his childhood bully #ok mayhaps there are better examples for this out there #but yeah he’s really character of all time #like no surprises there he’s definitely the ‘touch him and die’ kinda bf between the two #my god they really are a perfect match aren’t they
