Something different for #OFMD #WIPWednesday. I'm working on the series' "group photo" for Your Time Starts Now. These have been drawn freehand using references & an initial tracing. Need to revisit Archie, Ed (faces) & Stede (shoe). Very proud of Izzy, scared I'll ruin him when I start pen-lining.

Is it too soon for "Tales from the past" to be a #TakeTwoTuesday post? Anyway, if you're looking for a modernAU longfic w lots of self-discovery & healing, crew shenanigans, drag, and a found queer family, this might be a good read <3 archiveofourown.org/works/701209... #ofmd #ofmdfanfic #izzyhands

Tales from the past 
hideplueshi 
Summary:
Not moving on is worse. So Izzy has just done that - left his former life behind, cut ties to everyone and everything he once loved, hides his hurt and his past alike. Until he meets Frenchie and the crew of the New Unicorn. All of a sudden, Izzy's quiet, introverted life is turned upside down again, full of surprises, new discoveries and changes he has not seen coming.

Today's messy workmeeting doodles (meant to practise some poses based on references and it involuntarily became sort of a "comforting Izzy" story). Can you tell I'm missing the Tales boys T^T? #ofmd #ofmdart #izzyhands
Photo of a Our Flag means death modern AU sketchbook page with 5 messy pencil doodles on it, showing Izzy Hands in different situations. 1st, fighting with Edward Teach, 2nd sitting on the floor with Jim, (not) talking. 3rd and center, Izzy looking like he's holding back tears, getting hugged from behind by Frenchie, who gives him a kiss on the crown of his head and says, "it's ok. You're allowed to have bad days". 4th Izzy and Frenchie in bed, hugging each other, with Frenchie saying, "sleep, babe"; 5th Izzy sleeping on his side, looking tormented, Frenchie, wearing a hair bonnet, perched up behind and half hugging him, asking "babe? nightmares again?"

The final chapter of "Tales from the past" is now posted! I'm still having so many feelings about this fic & a hard time to let it end (it's just a new beginning, though) Thank you to everyone who decided to be part of their journey <3 archiveofourown.org/works/701209... #ofmd #ofmdfic #ofmdfanfic
Summary of the chapter, reading: 
Izzy finds an old photo again, and Frenchie gets the check-in he needs to make sure they can move forward after the events of the partyBeginning of the chapter, reading:
By the third time Frenchie plays the bridge Izzy involuntarily finds himself humming along. It's a good melody and he already knows it'll get stuck in his head for the rest of the day, which, eventually, will annoy the fuck out of him. But for the moment he enjoys discovering all the little flourishes and variations Frenchie's clever fingers find, while his partner tries to figure out the shape and details of the song. Izzy sometimes suspects that he functions as some kind of guinea pig for this process – Frenchie's one man audience, to try out what arrangements work best.

“You like that, babe? Sounds right?”

Todays silly workbreak doodle: wind spirit Izzy being a little menace, chasing Stede around deck. He does not like to be excluded from datenights u_u (Ages ago, Ed accidentally bound Izzy to himself, wishing for a little wind in a doldrum) #SweetAndSteddyhands #Steddyhands #ofmd #ofmdart #izzyhands
Pencil sketch of Izzy Hands, Stede Bonnet and Edward Teach from the series Our Flag means Death. Izzy is sketched in blue pencil, hovering in the air as a sort of uncorporeal wind spirit, blowing onto Stede’s hair, who stands with his back to Izzy, facing Ed. Ed is laughing, Stede’s expression is not amused.

I've finished writing the last chapter for "Tales from the past" today, and I'm so emotional about letting the boys go T°T So here's a last #WipWednesday snip from Izzy and Frenchie for everyone who cares <3 #ofmd #ofmdfanfic
Snip of the fic, reading:
“Frenchie?”
“Yeah, babe?”
Izzy lowers his gaze from the wall to the Polaroid he's still holding. To the new frame Frenchie has placed on the table. He knows he's asking so much more than just hanging up another picture, when he wonders, “Think we can find a place for them?”
He feels Frenchie's lips press a soft kiss to his forehead and it's answer enough. Fuck, how much he loves his man, making room for Izzy's past without any fuss, as if it's nothing. As if it isn't one of the potentially most problematic things Izzy's ever asked of him.
“Sure can, babe. If you want to.”
“I'd like to,” Izzy acknowledges. It's an oddly comforting thing to say. To voice his hope, like Frenchie encouraged him to do just a day ago. “We talked about... staying in contact. If we could try to be friends. If there's anything left to build upon after all this time.”
“Building something new, huh?” Frenchie hums, thoughtfully. “Guess that makes sense. You're not the same person you were back than, might be similar with The Crew, who knows. Just. Uh... Can I float something by you? Without you taking this as a condition or rejection of the idea?”

Long shot, but does anyone remember a post-s1 Tumblr doodle someone did of a modern domestic AU Steddyhands where Izzy's a plant dad? It was just some cute doodles, and one was Stede and Ed hugging with Izzy in the middle, who's demanding to be let out because his souffle is going to burn. #ofmd

Watercolour drawing of Edward Teach, Stede Bonnet, and Izzy Hands from the series Our Flag means Death. Seen from above, they’re laying on their backs on the deck with a pile of pillows, Edward facing one way, Stede and Izzy with open shirts lay with their heads on Ed's shoulders. Three candles light up the scene, Stede has a teacup by his side, Ed a tipped over bottle.

Fun fact that I need to point out (bc I'm stupid & didn't realise it'll only be visible when the fic is read on a desktop/laptop while adding my artworks in): all three of my RBB artworks build one coherent picture together! #ofmd #ofmdart #ofmdrbb #taketwotuesday
A big picture made of three individual watercolour artworks.
1. is  in blue and purple tones, showing the characters Ivan and Fang from the series Our Flag means death in a surreal, dreamy setting, illustrating a vision. Ivan’s head is visible in profile. He’s drawn in white lines, with his features like the moon tattoo on the side of his head being a part of the nightly sky, surrounded by stars and a strand of hair turning into clouds. A fluffy white cloud drifts towards the edge of the picture. Ivan’s shoulders descend into hills, turning into ocean. Old ruins built out of white stone (a crumbling bridge and several buildings with domed roofs and towers) stand in the mostly calm ocean. On the water, Fang sits in a very small rowing boat, with his back to the viewer, looking over his shoulder.
2.  in mostly red and earthy tones, showing the character Buttons from the series Our Flag means death in a surreal, dreamy setting, illustrating a vision. Buttons, standing on crumbling white stones on a sandbank set in an ocean with small waves, is looking like a statue, turned to the viewer. He is holding a round orb with a sun and waves above his head. A bird flies towards him through a sky changing from blue to red. Two halves of distorted looking clouds are set to the opposite edges of the image. The background is sandy hills, white ruins and the ocean. Two skeletons sit leaned against the wall on the sandbank, wearing leather clothing. The design of the clothes suggest these are Fang and Edward Teach.
3.  in blue and green tones, showing the characters Izzy Hands and Edward Teach from the series Our Flag means death in a surreal, dreamy setting, illustrating a vision. Izzy’s head is drawn in profile. He’s drawn in white lines, with his features like the polaris or x tattoo on his cheek being a part of the nightly sky, surrounded by stars and meandering bright green polar lights. His neck and collar bones fade into an icy polar landscape and ocean.

Third piece for our RBB is Ed's vision! Y'all have no idea how much I cursed the waves while drawing, but @anhaga9.bsky.social wrote Ed's longing for connection & Izzy's reluctance to let him close (again) beautifully, so it was worth it archiveofourown.org/works/904027... #ofmd #ofmdart #ofmdrbb
Watercolour drawing in blue and green tones, showing the characters Izzy Hands and Edward Teach from the series Our Flag means death in a surreal, dreamy setting, illustrating a vision. Izzy’s head is drawn in profile. He’s drawn in white lines, with his features like the polaris or x tattoo on his cheek being a part of the nightly sky, surrounded by stars and meandering bright green polar lights. His neck and collar bones fade into an icy polar landscape and ocean. A white tower with lights on inside stands on the ice, not far from a cliff. Agitated blue-green waves crash against the cliff, making the ocean impossible to cross for Edward, who stands on another shelf, looking towards the tower and Izzy in the sky.

Snip of the fix, reading:
And through the monsters ran the River, rippling and beckoning. By its banks Argo the Silver Ship awaited him. But Ed could not sail alone, not anymore, not when he had enjoyed the barest glimpse of an alternative.

“Izzy,” he called out into the night.

The tower’s beam swept round once more. “Keep away,” it warned, revealing the coast’s perils. But a lighthouse could be a landmark, too, Ed knew, something by which a navigator might plot a course.

“Izzy,” he cried again, more desperately.

And the clouds began to sway, to dance in whirling spirals of light and color, shimmering with red, green, blue, purple. They cast green glimmering flashes among the white caps of the icy sea.

“Izzy,” Ed sighed. He raised his arms to the watching, waiting sky.

Nathaniel closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “I am a wave on the sea,” he sang. In the familiar words that built his power, and bound it. “I am the seventh son of seventh son. Mine is the knowledge of the swift salmon in the shallow pool.

“Mine is the power of the night, the power of dream, of prophecy. I call now, I draw upon this day’s darkness. I weave threads of absent moonlight. I tether dream and memory. Listen now, elements, to my call, as I sing of the land lost and found, and returning now to heal the broken world.

“I am the sea-blast,” he continued, intoning the past into the present and the future. “I am the tidal surge rippling the thundering surf. I am the sea’s roar, the surging sea wave. I am the flood cresting over the plain, over the drowned world. I am the wind sweeping tranquil waters.

Second artwork is sea witch Buttons, holding the power of visions over Fang and Ed. I love the incantations @anhaga9.bsky.social has written for him <3 archiveofourown.org/works/904027... #ofmd #ofmdart #ofmdrbb #ofmdfanfic
Watercolour drawing in mostly red and earthy tones, showing the character Buttons from the series Our Flag means death in a surreal, dreamy setting, illustrating a vision. Buttons, standing on crumbling white stones on a sandbank set in an ocean with small waves, is looking like a statue, turned to the viewer. He is holding a round orb with a sun and waves above his head. A bird flies towards him through a sky changing from blue to red.

Behold, a fuckery! Draw either this Izzy or Ed (or both) badly, and post them on Tuesday with the hashtag #dickfuckday. Express yourselves! I had the idea that we could make them into a print / school style teatowel if we get enough line drawings, & maybe raise some £ for charity. Into it? Read on ⬇️

Our RBB is now completely posted, so I can finally share my art! Fang's vision was the first one I did, & I love all the moon imagery and star references @anhaga9.bsky.social got into the fic <3 archiveofourown.org/works/904027... #ofmd #ofmdrbb #ofmdart #ofmdfanfic
Watercolour drawing in blue and purple tones, showing the characters Ivan and Fang from the series Our Flag means death in a surreal, dreamy setting, illustrating a vision. Ivan’s head is visible in profile. He’s drawn in white lines, with his features like the moon tattoo on the side of his head being a part of the nightly sky, surrounded by stars and a strand of hair turning into clouds. A fluffy white cloud drifts towards the edge of the picture. Ivan’s shoulders descend into hills, turning into ocean. Old ruins built out of white stone (a crumbling bridge and several buildings with domed roofs and towers) stand in the mostly calm ocean. On the water, Fang sits in a very small rowing boat, with his back to the viewer, looking over his shoulder.Snip of the fic, reading:
A wind rustled the waves into white caps gleaming in the night.

The sky was cloudless and dark save for the moon’s waning crescent and the stars glimmering above the empty and abandoned ruins. Above him there faint, watery Aquarius filled a cup from the river Eridanus. Poseidon’s son, Orion, hunted the celestial bull, his dogs running beside him, loyal even in following their dead master into the skies. So much loss, Fang thought, in the stories the stars told. Stellification was supposed to be a reward for heroism, sacrifice, unrelenting love. But it was still loss.
Above him the starry river flowed into a sky-sea where Cetus and Pisces and Delphinus swam in moon-touched waters. Below him the waters in which he floated flowed out towards an uncertain future.

Fang felt the glittering glory of the stars. But he felt too the dark grief of the moon’s vanishing.

Working on the next chapter for Tales - did you know cats are the cause ghost ships exists 🐈‍⬛? (according to Frenchie, who's spinning a little tale for Louis here). #WipWednesday #ofmd #ofmdfanfic
snip of a fic, reading: 
“Uh, because he's a pirate, no?” Frenchie improvises a child-friendly version – given the name and the ship, the tale basically writes itself. “And pirates are scary because if they get your ship you're royally fucked, Or, at least when you're in the Navy, I guess. Otherwise you're just, like, normally fucked. Anyway, you know, Blackbeard has a secret crew of cats, who stealthily wander the deck at night. They're smokey grey and their eyes glow red! So when it's pitch black and they raid an enemy ship, they crawl up the sails with the little hooks in their paws and shred them to pieces! And because catches are witches, those ships then become ghost ships, that's why all ghost ships have their sails and rigging torn, right?”
Just the thought alone makes him shudder.

This. 100% this. I'm doing so many new creative art/craft things rn. Not perfectly, but I'm learning constantly. I made a whole new thing today that I haven't done in years, but I went through with it despite doubts & failure. Someone is getting a gift made with ❤️, by my own hands & I'm proud of it.

This EdIzzy piece by @quietregret.bsky.social and @spicyteamotion.bsky.social is just incredible, both fic and art. Precanon, so full of quiet character, hotness and all the hints of how they struggle with each other despite needing each other so badly. archiveofourown.org/chapters/232...

If you get an original art piece from me, it means I like you, a lot. But it also most certainly means I have no energy to fight my stupid ass printer all day long (& half of last night tbh) to get decent prints 😤 Why is this thing hating me? I cleaned it properly! It got nice paper! And new ink!
