OFMD Dumbasses In Love
When Stede doesn’t meet Ed on the dock, Ed immediately thinks “he hates me, he doesn’t want me”. It never occurs to him that something happened. He never thinks…well maybe a guard caught Stede. He didn’t know that Badminton kidnapped and further traumatized Stede. We know that Stede left to try to fix things; he thought he had to fix his family and save Ed from himself.
The heart of sit-coms is always misunderstanding based on miscommunication or no communication. So that scans.
If Ed and Stede would have spoken about it, if Stede explained why he was leaving, Blackbeard wouldn’t have gone to full Kraken. But then we wouldn’t have much of a show, would we?
