Ed + how knowing Stede has changed him

[ID: a series of gifs contrasting ed early in the season, shown in black and white, with later scenes, shown in color.

first: in black and white, ed talks with izzy and says, “i haven’t died yet, have i? maybe we should try that.” in color, ed climbs onto the ship and says, “better alive than dead,” and stede smiles at him and says, “ed.”

second: in black and white, ed says, “i’m bored out of my skull, man. is this all there is?” in color, on the beach of the academy, ed says, “these past few weeks have been the most fun i’ve had in ages, years. maybe ever.”

third: in black and white, ed, sitting in the tub and near tears, says, “i’m not a good person, stede. that’s why i don’t have any friends.” in color, ed leans down, furious, and shouts, “fuck you, jack! he’s my friend!”

fourth: in black and white, ed says, “i just wasn’t built for sittin idle, man.” in color, on the beach again, ed says, “it’s kinda nice to take a load off. just to… just to be edward.”

fifth: in black and white, on the deck of the revenge, ed says, “that’s hard to say because i don’t feel fear.” in color, stede, blindfolded and facing the firing squad, says, “oh god,” and ed looks on, trembling, visibly terrified. END ID]
