100 Days of Enemy Recs: Postscriptum 2 : Our Flag Means Death
Okay I'm not in this fandom really and don't plan to be, but it's all over everywhere, and so many familiar names popping up! So sure of course I'm reading it.
(I am going to try to keep these postscripta going if only to track new fandoms I dive into; we'll see if it lasts. the other new fandom I've been reading a lot in lately I haven't really figured out how to do a recs list yet.)
Anyway Our Flag Means Death is about gay pirates. Whether Ed and Stede count as enemies is not for me to say, as I haven't watched the thing, and it's still very in progress. However there have been a bunch of fics lately where Stede's ex-boyfriend and ex-wife gang up on him, and you know I am there for that.
They also make very good intro fics because I think at this point nearly everybody who follows fandom knows, at minimum, that Stede and Ed are idiots in love, and that's basically all Mary knows as of the end of S1, too.
(also, why does OFMD have Stede using the name "Captain Thomas" when they have Actual True Fact that he was known to use "Captain Edwards" sitting in the history books? Oh well, maybe they're saving it for later.)
