Friends, PLEASE read this glorious fic if you love pirates in garters, sentimental smut, body worship, and hilariously inappropriate use of sea shanties.
To get a taste of what you'll find in the fic, here are the 18th-century-style ribbon garters I designed and embroidered in collaboration with this SilkAndLeather. Because you can’t show queer fans an immaculate, stockings-clad gay dandy like Stede Bonnet and expect us NOT to feverishly imagine his garters.
If you're interested in more photos, my inspirational moodboard, and some research into real-life 18th century garters and their saucy/romantic mottos, click the "juniper’s art" tag to find the original, more detailed post. (This version is streamlined for easier access by the standards of this beloved hellsite.)
