Something I’ve noticed is the tiny detail about Ed being comfortable with physical contact with other people and Stede. Around other people the only physical contact with them is violence or joking hyper masculine aggression. In the Calico Jack episode there’s a bit where he tries to put his hand on Jack’s shoulder but decides not to - his whole life his main source of physical contact would be violence. At the party he gets angry when the woman tried to touch his beard, showing he doesn’t like being touched without notice and assumes it’s violent straight away. But around Stede, he’ll touch him on the shoulder, support him when he’s injured even let him touch his beard - slowly becoming comfortable with touching someone for fondness rather than violence. But the first thing he does when Stede’s gone? Throws a guy overboard and cuts off another man’s toe. Reverting back to his ‘comfort’ zone of violence and aggression. God i love the small details in this show

He's so head over heels for him, looks at him with literal heart eyes, obviously finds him absolutely adorable. He is so amazed and fascinated by him and his eyes twinkle with stars at the sight of him. Like wtf, can you be any more in love with someone????

Bro, I found out about this because of Tumblr and I'm so glad that not only does it depict pirates in an accurate light, but also they made sure that the LGBT representation would be good! I mean, it's a historical fact that pirates especially were VERY gay. Like gayer than any of us would ever understand. Hell, even the women were gay! _EVERYONE WAS GAY_ and I don't like how too many pirate movies/shows/books/etc. just choose not to show it because "dOn'T sAy GaY" (Sorry for the over-enthusiasm, I'm a historian and because I'm queer myself, I get very passionate about history and remaining historically accurate.

And even tho we as an audience are familiar w Stede's past, Ed isn't - Stede never got to open up about it bc he's always focused on being their for everyone else - so as far as Ed is concerned, this was a purely selfish act and not an irrational response to his own trauma. Stede is still wrong, but he didn't mean to hurt Ed and I'm curious how this is going to be played out in s2.

Yes. Yes they did. *hides history book*

The switches in this show, especially from Stede, from theatrical comedy acting into suddenly very quiet realistic acting hit so hard. They hit me right in my little chest

“You wear fine things well.” I’m gonna light myself on fire and run into the ocean GOOD LORD ITS SO SWEET

I love how after the kiss they whisper the whole rest of scene 😭 When you find love you don't want to scare it away so you coo quietly like you're trying to catch a rabbit

I love this so much. Ed just took one look at this frilly little nerd and was like, "you're perfect! I love you, lets pirate together!"

His willingness to be so vulnerable when it comes to love is fucking beautiful. I can’t wait for Stede, now looking like a goddamn romantic hero, to go back to him and have to earn that love back.

when ed was crying under the fort, it really hit me, i was like taika what the fuck why would you make me feel pain?

UGH THESE PIRATES HAVE MADE ME MISERABLE 😭😭😭 I just want them to be happy and together

Often, in shows like this, where they wind up getting together, I'm always watching and thinking, 'They just seemed like friends to me , but ok'. But nope. No, there was clear interest in each other from the get-go. Obvious as daylight romantic tension. They really did a good job with all the little moments between them, and it's like the writers ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD real romance. They could have just shoehorned it in. But they actually put the work into it.

As much as the ending made me sad (and Ed too), I am really interested in how Stede will handle a heartbroken Ed. My thought is that because Stede meant so much to Ed and Ed was very much in love with him (and vice-versa, but Stede realized/understood it a bit later), Ed will probably be upset/angry at Stede for a good portion, and may even go out of his way to avoid him ? (or possible angry confrontation?-maybe this could be cathartic for both of them to get everything they're feeling out there) and I really hope Stede is able to explain to Ed why he left/was gone for so long, and that he loves him, and I hope it's then filled with a bunch of fluff T-T. I know it is a romcom, so it'll probably have some happy ending for them, but it may also have angst (which I am also looking forward to- not just because I want to see more of heartbroken/angry Ed and how Stede reacts to this...) Anyway, just my thoughts, and I really need season 2 T-T

Yeah, the ending, though not ideal, is a perfect setup for a season 2. Most writers struggle to keep a romance interesting after a kiss and resort to cheap writing tricks, but this new Ed and new self sufficient Stede will have a richer dynamic in season 2

We are actually going to get to see Blackbeard in action! It's gonna get dark...

maybe we'll see how Ed reacts to the news of Stede's "death". I really hope that the creators of the show do not miss this opportunity, and Stede finds Ed AFTER he learns about his "death". This will most likely harden Ed even more, and he will regress even further into Blackbeard, trying to escape the pain. And then Stede finally finds him. I think Ed will be furious haha (I love angst too) I expect that by the time Stede finds him, Ed will have done a lot of terrible things, and Stede will have to somehow come to terms and accept that Ed has become a real Blackbeard, just like he is described in books

@@AidanK_ART oh gah that's good. I mean, my heart is breaking at your words. But oof is that good.

okay but the way Stede gave Ed so much hope that he could just...be himself, be ED- and not HAVE to be Blackbeard or anything- he could be or do whatever he wanted, whatever made him happy around Stede- and with Stede gone, Ed feels like he HAS to go back to being Blackbeard because his hope is gone😭

I'm so glad so many other people noticed Ed going to tap his boot against Stede's foot, then Stede lovingly rubbing Ed's boot back despite the situation. It's so wholesome despite everything that's going on around them and it hurts. It's probably my favorite moment of the series.

Stede's smile when BB asked "Who's he?" And he said "that's me"😭😭😭

I love their relationship because it's not just romantic love, it's friendship.

That feel when you're watching the show and you don't see it coming and even when Lucius is like, "This is happening" you're like, "No! Are you sure??? No." and until the kiss happens you're more than half expecting it all to come to nothing and then it happens and then you finish the show and you're like, NOW I HAVE TO SEE THIS OVER FROM THE BEGINNING BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED AND I HAVE TO SEE IT OVER AGAIN KNOWING THAT!!! 😍😍😍 *Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!*

Yup.

The way he looks at Stede when he created chaos by using "passive aggression"

Stede you can't just marry a pirate you just met and adopt his slightly unhinged children! That's a THIRD date move!

He already has and we love it

they're so cute together and so in love AND THEN THE END ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED ME

Bruh halfway through this I stopped the video, downloaded HBO max and binged the entire thing in one night, thinking it would be a self-contained miniseries where they get a happy ending like good omens-- 😭😭😭

I had no idea it was going to go all the way to romance... and omg it was such a relief that they didn't hold back. They just let this natural chemistry blossom.

The whole scene leading up to and including the kiss is my comfort scene, it's so soft

my favorite trope is the person who hasnt known a single second of peace or comfort and the other person who is just peace and/or comfort its wonderful and ofmd nailed it. im going to leap :D

The fact there's so many queer characters and everyone treats them normal makes me so so happy, the fact their love is considered normal even by Stede's (now ex) wife it means so much, and the tension slowly growing between them means so much to me I hope season 2 comes out soon

“I bet there’s some INSANE foliage” goddammit I love this show

One day I might recover from the little noise Stede makes when Ed kisses him. One day. But not today.

This show is so refreshing and romantic, I was enormously shocked when they kissed because I never expected their interactions to escalate from platonic attraction to literally kissing. As Taika said this show is about ROMANCE and not BROMANCE. It really makes justice to queer representation and I hope other shows like Good Omens step up to this level of undoubtedly love expressions

wait THEY ACTUALLY ARE IN LOVE???? I THOUGHT WE WERE JUST BEING DELUSIONAL AGAIN

I'm in love with how in love he is

I realized when Ed comes back (w/o Stede) he's wearing Stede's robe around the ship likely because he misses him 😭😭😩

taika waititi honestly outdid himself

it’s a crime how underrated this show is

*THE CHOKEHOLD THIS SERIES HAS ON ME, MAN--*

I too have gone insane, welcome to the club.

Lucius in the treasure ep represented the whole fanbase tbh

Season 2 needs to come soon because I wanna see Stede finally fight for what he wants and not run away.

The wink at 4:12 broke me and put me back together again.

I didn't notice until my 5th watch-through, that in the scene where he's in the pillow fort, when Ed lifts his head to look at Lucius, he actually has a tear running down his cheek.

LISTEN BOIS, IF STEDE AND ED DONT GET MARRIED BY THE END OF SEASON 2, WE *RIOT*

Stede makes ed happy Ed makes stede happy SO WHY IS THAT SEASON FINALE SO HEARTBREAKING????

there is NO OTHER SHOW like this out there

I love how 2 minutes in the OP just gives up on doing Ed’s POV and just writes what we, the audience are thinking😂😂😂

Exactly!!!!

This series was such an absolute joy to watch, I don't think I've loved a couple this much since Good Omens finished.

TAIKAS EYES ARE SO SO EXPRESSIVE he can make his face so clearly display an emotion and its So cute

“You make stede happy” HELP AWWGHHFHFHDHHH I CANT BREATH I LOVE THEM SM AUGHHAwWW

It's almost outrageous how I instantly became attracted to Taika Watita when he showed up as Blackbeard. I didnt think I had a thing for pirates before but I guess I fucking do, shit.

The “Oh my god, this is happening” was such a perfect line. It represents every one of us that is completely fed up with queer baiting being so happy that there’s such a real queer love story that actually pans out. I think the best part about that scene was that my “omg this is happening” moment was when he said it and not their conversation because I’ve gotten so used to queer baiting that I just shrugged it off. But that line coming from another character in a queer relationship really showed that the writers were not just baiting us, they were finally giving us what we really wanted. At least, that’s what it felt like for me…

"this was the last time they saw each other" OH JUST STAB ME IN THE HEART WHY DONT YOU

I think my favourite thing about this is a video like this, you’d normally see for a popular fandom non canon ship and yet, THEYRE FUCKING GAY AND ITS CANON AND I WILL NEVER BE OVER THIS.

3:19 he was looking at stede SO SOFT I was about to cry

I will always be grateful for this show to teach me what "passive aggressive " meant, and also the most exciting love/pirate story ever

TAIKA IS SO FUCKING CHARMING IM ON MY KNEES

I can’t never listen to The chain again without remembering their feet touching and getting emotional

Lucius being our audience stand in is so precious

they’re soulmates your honor

Agreed

I'm more invested in 2 fictional characters' happines than in my own. I cannot move on from this show and it's been weeks since I watched it, HEEEEEELP

May be otherthinking it but I like how Ed’s beard goes lighter and lighter with each episode, on his fist appearance it was a dark grey to black and the last time we saw it was a light grey, I think it kinda shows how he was distancing himself from his bad title.

I. Have. Been. Asking. For. A. Gay. Pirate. Show. Since. I. Was. 10. I. Finally. Got. It! *FANBOY SCREAMING* SO FUCKING CUTE! I CAN'T!

I think seeing ed cry, like genuinely sob, broke me more than anything ever has, I need the next season so I can move on with my life :'(
