What’s writing, you know? What does writing actually mean?

the love story being so central to our flag means death really is mindblowing. i haven’t stopped thinking about it for months. it is, to its core, a romance. that was the point. the queer romance wasn’t written in in the second or third season because the fandom picked up on the homoeroticism and made a ship popular. it wasn’t added in because the fans demanded it or because the actors pushed for it later on it wasn’t forced into slowburn by a network it was there the whole time.

when stede showed ed his secret closet that was on purpose an allegory, when they shared the marmalade bread that was romantic intentionally, when they rowed away from the burning party boat and ed was looking at stede that was him FALLING IN LOVE . that’s how it was WRITTEN. ed really actually leaned in and almost kissed stede in the moonlight scene. and then. they actually kissed! like i know this is months old news now but i can’t get over how fucking different this feels to other queer romances i’ve seen. it is the core and central plot of the show and it’s beautiful. it’s funny it’s cute it’s heartwarming it’s GOOD. they did it.

what if this is just reverse queerbaiting. like reverse psychology but for queerbaiters. they could show nandor and guillermo snogging this season and i’d still be like How fuckign dare they queerbait me with this. unbelievable. they’re queerbaiting me so hard rn

OFMD Meta Index

Here are (almost) all the ofmd metas that appeared on my dash, catagorised by character/episode/theme, for anyone interested. (I wanted to post it here but turns out, there's far too many links for tumblr).

Just a few notes before starting:

1/ i haven't had time to read all of them yet, so some might be in the wrong category. i'll correct that as i wade through them this summer

2/ i still have +50 metas saved in my draft that i have to add here, but if there's a meta you've read/written that isn't here, feel free to tag me/send me the link so that i'll add it

3/ if there's a meta of yours that you'd like me to remove, feel free to tell me as well.
