Ok it’s late so bear with me as I try to articulate this.
Every day I am thinking about the way Ed says, “Oh shut up” in response to Stede saying, “I’ve only got stupid ideas.”
It’s something about his exasperated tone, his furrowed brows, the way he looks at the ground instead of Stede, how he’s one second away from rolling his eyes. In this moment he is simply a man with his best friend who he is trying to make feel better and the best friend is ruining his attempt. Real “no one is allowed to talk shit about you, not even you” energy.
And obviously Ed is in love with him there but there’s just something very special to me about how even without taking romantic feelings into account, there’s affection and camaraderie there, so much that he feels real annoyance when Stede gets too down on himself. That special type of annoyance, the type that doesn’t spell out abandonment, but rather the type where he wants to shake Stede and say, “see what I see for once, you wonderful idiot.”
To paraphrase a quote from Parks and Rec: he loves him and he likes him.
It is so important to me that he just. Genuinely fucking likes him.
god bless everyone in my life for being so sick of me but so very patient

You know how you gotta restart a song a bunch of times because you didn't appreciate it enough the first time?
Damn I love this song. I'd watch it all day long. 💃🏼

I love when people see a picture of someone doing something Will Graham would absolutely never be caught dead doing, while holding a Fish and go “that is Will graham. I know this because of the fish”

You can't tell me that Hannibal wouldn't let Will have this one... as a little treat. And then everyone would stand up and clap.
