I'm participating in Big Bang for the first time and I was immediately lucky enough to be matched with the fantastic @teadragonhoard.bsky.social and illustrate their fic One Hundred Years (the tags may shock you, but I assure you that this story is definitely worth reading!❤️‍🔥)

As a bonus, I want to show you some early sketches for One Hundred Years by @teadragonhoard.bsky.social that I made while reading the synopsis (there are 13 of these sketches in total, and that's not even half of the scenes I'd like to illustrate😭)

Y'all aren't ready for my upcoming gentlebeard fic for #OFMDBB25.

I've been working on this one for quite a while now... 👀

#ofmd #ofmdfic #OFMDBigbang2025
Unknown Number Stede Bonnet is a recently divorced, mild-mannered English teacher with a passion for literature and a tendency to overthink. After relocating from Auckland to Wellington in search of a fresh start, he begins receiving anonymous text messages meant for someone’s long-lost love. At first, he’s hesitant to reply—worried that reaching out might ruin the mystery and scare off the sender. But he eventually finds himself texting with Ed Teach, a brooding theatre technician whose presence turns Stede’s quiet new life upside down. As their connection deepens, Stede finds himself rethinking everything: his love life, his career, and even his growing friendship with Lucius, a fellow teacher facing marital struggles of his own.

For this #WIPWednesday, have a peek at my fic for the #OFMDBigBang2025
"I need to know who he is. I have a name, but that's all. Do you have an address for him? A phone number? I need a way to contact him." Buttons doesn't answer at first. Just folds his gnarled hands over his belly and smiles with something like reverence. "Calypso provides," he says. Stede frowns. "That's not –" He stops, mid-sentence, because Buttons's gaze has shifted. Over Stede's shoulder. Toward the chapel entrance. He turns. And there, framed by the doorway, stands someone very familiar. His salt-and-pepper hair falls loose around his shoulders, catching the dim light in restless strands. A thick, flowing beard streaked with silver frames his face. He moves with an easy, deliberate grace, as if he owns the space without needing to claim it. He's wearing faded black jeans and a simple, threadbare black tee, topped with a black leather jacket missing one sleeve, leaving his arm bare and covered in swirling tattoos that ripple like dark waves. Tattoos that Stede would know anywhere. Blackbeard steps forward, voice low and warm as aged rum. "The new Mr. Teach, I presume?"

It’s after midnight, so it’s #WIPWednesday. Enjoy a little snippet from my upcoming #OFMDBigBang2025 fic, Fields of Gold, with art by @afinefish.bsky.social, posting November 9th!
Ed is jolted awake, his vision blurring on the white canvas of the wagon cover above him. The wheels rumble beneath, every bump rattling through his bones. He’s lying flat in the back of a wagon. What the hell is happening? “Stede?” His voice is hoarse, barely more than a rasp, panic edging into it. A hand closes firmly around his, warm and steady. Then Stede’s face swims into focus above him. Ed exhales, the sharp spike of fear easing just a little. “I’m here,” Stede says, his voice gentle but certain. “We’re taking you to a doctor, love.” Love. The word hums through him like the most beautiful of poems. He wants to believe he didn’t just imagine it, that Stede truly called him that. But the world tilts and spins, his stomach lurching. He squeezes his eyes shut, bracing for the sickness, until a cool draft fans against his face. Stede—fanning him, grounding him. Slowly, his vision steadies again. “I don’t want to die,” Ed whispers, so faint he doubts it even carried.

#WIPSnips for #WIPWednesday, word: trail. Here’s a snippet from my upcoming #OFMDBigBang2025 fic, Fields of Gold.
#OFMDFanFic
“Can you tell me about your hat?” Stede asks one early evening, just as the sun dips low on the horizon. Dust from the wagon train rises in the cooling air, dulling the brilliant streaks of orange and violet above them. They’re getting close to stopping for the night, but there’s still a stretch of road left, so Ed passes the reins into Stede’s eager hands, letting him lead. His palms are grateful for the break. He knows what Stede means, that he’s noticed the way Ed keeps the wide-brimmed hat close, always within reach. But instead of admitting it outright, Ed leans back against the bench as casually as he can. “What d’you mean?” he asks, feigning ignorance, though his pulse quickens. He doesn’t much want to dig into the history of the hat. Too many memories tangled up in it. But… maybe it’s something he can give Stede. Something true about his past, since he’s holding back so much. “You just… seem rather attached to it,” Stede says. “I thought there might be a story there.” The smile he gives Ed is so open, so disarming, that Ed feels the truth clawing its way up before he can stop it. With Stede looking at him like that, so gentle, curious, and unguarded, he thinks he’d confess to anything, even the darkest parts of himself. “It was the last gift my mum ever gave me,” Ed says, his voice rougher than he intends. He clears his throat, but the emotion still tightens it. “She was sick for a long time. I worked every job I could, scraped together what money I could manage to get her the care she needed, but… in the end, it wasn’t enough. So I dunno. I guess the hat just… means a lot to me.” Stede’s expression shifts. Ed braces for pity. That’s what people usually offer when he talks about his mother. But this isn’t pity. Not even close. The only word he can pin to it is care. Genuine, steady, unflinching care. Before he can say anything else, Stede pulls the reins sharply, guiding the wagon off the trail. The oxen shuffle to a stop, dust swirling around them in the cooling air. “Can I hug you?” Stede asks once the wagon is still. His voice is quiet, almost hesitant. Ed has never been so surprised, or so eager, in his life. The thought of Stede’s arms around him, right here, right now, even with his chest raw and his emotions spilling everywhere… It sounds like the most wonderful thing in the world. So he nods. And then Stede is leaning across the bench, pulling him close, arms wrapping firmly around his back. Ed sinks into the embrace, letting himself be held, and thinks—no, knows—this might just be the best hug he’s ever had.
