LINKS

Rules / Muse List / Memes

Some outdated but lengthier muse bios are here (age of sail/historical mostly), here, here (MCU/XMCU) and here (TMA).

'Headcanon based’ muses are often very canon-divergent, may use different FCs or otherwise just differ heavily from the muse you might be expecting. I try to keep their personalities roughly the same, but their histories/canon may not be. I mostly write with friends on this blog, which is why I don’t really bother with bios etc - if you’re new here and want to know things, you can always send me an ask and I’ll tell you about my muse(s)!

MUSE QUICKLIST (aka the muses I have interest in rn)

AGE OF SAIL

Long John Silver (Black S/ails / Treasure Island / headcanon based) James Flint (Black S/ails / headcanon based) Oisín MacCaig (OC)

OLD WEST

Atticus (OC)

Asks and memes are always welcomed for any of my muses, whether they’re active or not. If you’re worried that all of these muses will result in your dash being spammed, dont be - I don’t actually post all that much.

i’m obsessed with your black sails rdr2 crossover ideas idk what to even ask but if u have any more hcs about flint silver or even eleanor (esp eleanor 👀) interacting with the gang i would die to hear them!!

oh man HELLO... it's honestly been so damn long since i wrote anything Red (Dead) Sails TM related that i don't remember any of my headcanons at all LMAO. when i first read this ask i had to do a double take like "wait i have a crossover??"

however. here are some eleanor headcanons for you. as a treat.

  1. she would NOT like miss grimshaw, largely because grimshaw doesn't look kindly on women that don't seem to ""know their place"" (which, in my opinion, is because grimshaw has been through so much period-typical trauma and misogyny that the idea of other women NOT suffering through that--the idea that maybe HER trauma was something that could have happened some other way--is both frightening and infuriating to her. trauma be like that). she wouldn't necessarily hate her or anything, just like... generally be very uninterested in anything grimshaw had to say to her LMAO
  2. hosea is a lot of fun to play gambling games with. he's hard as hell to beat, but it's ALWAYS worth it - you know that cocky smirk eleanor gets when she gets her own way, particularly in s1? that's her after beating hosea at cards.
  3. i think she might feel alienated from a lot of the women in the gang, though i can't wholly pinpoint why. she sure as fuck doesn't feel any sense of kinship with the men though, this isn't a case of "oh i like hanging out with boys bc im not like other girls", it's more... "these women's lived experiences are fundamentally different to mine and i always feel like i'm straddling two different worlds - a world in which i am a woman and a world in which i am my own person in the eyes of society - but it's still very different to theirs".

honestly half of what i want to write these days is just people being rawed in new and interesting ways and/or trauma exploration shit and for that i’m probably better off writing fic or stories with ocs fkjnfkjdg

SMOOCH from Horst @ Ed {just don't mind the fangs}

Avatar

It's not like he isn't expecting it, because Edward isn't an idiot: he knows when playful teasing between men is turning into something else, and neither he nor Horst (whose name still makes him giggle, 'cause horses) are being particularly subtle about it now that they're alone.

"Huh," Ed says. He hasn't pulled away; their lips are nearly touching, still. "Never kissed someone that didn't smell of rum and seaweed before."

Horst doesn't know who he is. Horst just knows that he's Edward. And, sure, okay, Ed will have to go back to his ship in a couple of nights and never see him again, but maybe until then it's okay to just be--Ed. And not fucking think about Blackbeard, or the crew waiting for him when he finally comes back.

Edward kisses him again, curiously, and when he deepens the kiss--

"--you've got sharp teeth, mate--"

--he pushes his hands under Horst's fancy-looking waistcoat, feeling the soft shirt beneath. It's such a stark contrast to the leather Ed wears.

"I'm kind of into it."

💋 - Danny to Ed

Avatar

"Hey--"

Any indignation at being silenced with a kiss was swiftly buried under the sheer elation of being kissed at all. Edward hummed, his arm around Danny's waist to keep him close as he started to back up.

He moved until his own back was against the bedroom wall and Danny was pressed against him, held in place by Ed's arms around him. On another day (or with someone else) Edward would have flipped them; would've pinned Danny fast and driven him mad with kisses to his neck and shoulders, and whatever other rowdy shit Blackbeard would've done before fucking him against the wall or whatever. But. Well. If Danny wanted that, it was just too fucking bad. Edward wanted to be kissed senseless.

"Yeah yeah yeah, closer," he muttered against Danny's mouth, tugging him in by the hips. "Like that. Keep me here."

secondhandmckie asked:

“You sure this won’t hurt?” Danny asked, eyeing the laces skeptically. His features, his throat were a bashful red, and it had everything to do with the imposing man…and his lovely black corset. It felt as improper as it felt special, and Danny wasn’t sure he was the man for the job. His fingers felt far too clumsy for this. - ED HAS A CORSET SEND TWEET

"If it hurts we'll just cut the fuckin' thing to ribbons, c'mon get on with it!" Edward growled over his shoulder, but his eyes were smiling; there was an air of impatience about him, a kind of nervous, excitable energy that was usually reserved for a really good Fuckery TM. It helped that Danny was standing so close, close enough that his breath tickled Ed's skin, but that wasn't really the bulk of it: it could have been anyone behind him and he'd still have been vibrating out of his skin.

Corsets were women's wear, yes - but that wasn't the exciting part. The exciting part was that Blackbeard didn't wear them, and maybe Edward could. Not outside, maybe, not at sea and not where anyone but Danny could recognise him, but... Maybe once in a while would be enough. Maybe he'd look in the mirror and--

"If you don't hurry up I'm gonna cut your balls off."
