Fab!!
Digital illustration of the bathtub scene from episode 1.6 of ofmd, stede is kneeling by the tub holding his hand out to Ed, who is curled in the tub with stedes robe resting his head on stedes hand. Also, key difference from the scene in the show, Ed is a merperson, with his tail draped over the edge of the tub and onto the floor. Mostly purple monotone with gold highlights

Nice. Very good. Love that ๐โค๏ธ
It really is ๐
So expressive โค๏ธ
Yeah, it was the cheesiest possible thing he could say, but well worth it to see the other manโs eyes go wide, then the blush rising up into his cheeks and down as far as his shirt was unbuttoned.
So sue Ed if he wanted to see how far down it went.
โHmm. Maybe you ended up exactly where you needed to be,โ Ed rumbled back at him, waggling his eyebrows slightly.
โOkay, you got me,โ the man said, still grinning. โThough Iโm probably a bit overdressed, and this isnโt my home conference. Iโve never been before, and it figures that the first thing I would do is take a wrong turn.โ
โkinda screams English professor.โ
That made the man throw back his head and burst into a full-throated laugh. It bubbled up from his depths so effortlessly, crinkling up his whole face in the best way. God๐ฅ๐ข๐ฎ๐ฏ it was cute. Provoking that reaction gave Ed a massive sense of accomplishment.
Ed chuckled. โEasy. One, thereโs only two big events going on here this week. Twoโฆhave you seen yourself, mate? This whole businessโโEd made a circular gesture that encompassed the sport coat the man was wearing, the laptop bag he was carrying, the coffee cup he was holdingโ
โAh, thank you,โ the other man replied, gratitude in his voice. But rather than make a move to get to his intended destination, he did a visible double take. โWait a second.โ His tone turned mildly suspicious. โHow do you know where Iโm going?โ
Ed gave a ๐ฆ๐ฉ, ๐ฏ๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ช๐จ ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ shrug. โLike I said, everyoneโs been doing it.โ He certainly had the baseline irritation level to prove it. โYour registration desk is down a couple of hallways. Not the most obvious, gotta say.โ
Check-in booths for a fencing tournament
The registration booths in question:]
โI suppose,โ the man said wryly, crouching a bit to peer at it more closely. โIf you manage to miss the whole โNorth American Cupโ in capital letters on it.โ
โDonโt worry about it,โ Ed reassured him. โNot exactly the first person to make that mistake. The words are kinda small in the logo.โ Ed pointed down to the front of the booth.
โNah, mate,โ he said, giving him a genuine smile, turning on the charm. โThatโs a ways down.โ Ed inclined his head in the direction heโd need to go.
The other man grimaced, his whole (solid, wide, tempting) upper body caving in on itself. โOh no; how embarrassing!โ
broad shoulders testing the seams of his sport coat; no wedding ringโhe hit the pause button real quick in his mind, shifting instantly into โFuck, this DILF is ๐ค๐ถ๐ต๐ฆ. Letโs not waste an opportunityโ mode instead.
He looked up for the fiftieth time, ready to put on his Patient Face and use his Patient Voice. But as soon as he saw who was speaking to himโa man, likely around his own age, with a kind, worried face; perfect blond curls (does he use a curling iron? Or have a perm?);
โExcuse me. Is this registration?โ
Ed grumbled to himself, rather violently regretting heโd ever offered to hold down the fort for an hour while his crew was working on setup elsewhere.
