[ID: 1.Full body drawings of a post-s1 Ed and Stede, titled “Gay Chicken Tenders (Reconciliation) Era.”

Stede is smiling gently with full dimple, standing in a confident stance, one hand in a gentlemanly position gripping the vee of his vest and the other behind his back with the rapier slung around his waist. He is wearing a patterned blue waistcoat, blue breeches, white stockings, and brown buckled boots. His sleeves are rolled up. Multiple arrows point at different parts of his body to illustrate the changes in his appearance: “earrings; open collar because emotional vulnerability; longer, swept back, more gray (hair); lighthouse tattoo (chest); wedding ring on chain around neck (for love of family); bright colors and patterns; sword (mostly for show); boots; he also wears fancy long coats!”

Ed has a small smile and has one hand lifted in a wave, the other resting on his hip. His long hair is half-up and beautifully curly, and he is wearing a pink tee shirt (of course showing a sliver of belly) and brown leather pants with black boots and his knee brace. He has his usual rings, necklaces, tattoos, and stab scar. Multiple arrows point at different parts of his body to illustrate the changes in his appearance: “the red silk as a kerchief (neck); no gloves because emotional vulnerability; beard trimmed short; a lil pudgier from good food; softer pants; one gun (emphasis on one); more color!”

2. Repeat of the first drawing, this time titled “Battle Armor!” and showing the same Ed and Stede this time in their coats. Stede’s coat is knee-length and lavender with lighter purple details, buttons, and embroidery. It has a tall white collar and frilly white cuffs beneath the wide wool sleeves. Ed’s jacket is waist-length, the same soft brown leather as his pants, and clasps together asymmetrically just like his old coat. This coat has two full sleeves and a few sharks teeth tied to the shoulders, has a knife holster on one side, and looks very comfy. Through the belt loops at the bottom of the short coat is a black belt with a buckle displaying the Māori flag about 300 years too early.

Extra drawing: a close up of Stede, this time with a short graying blonde beard and a curly little mustache. Text pointing to him reads: beard?? I can never decide.
