I was thinking about that hilarious bit in 'The Art of Fuckery' when Izzy gets all flustered trying to get Blackbeard out of that harness before he chafes his balls... I wonder how many times Blackbeard actually did chafe his balls wearing that silly harness because he was trying to scare the crew on some ship the QAR raided. And did Izzy have to put salve on chafed balls? And why did Blackbeard bring that harness and all his fuckery smoke pots with him over to the Revenge in the first place?

@Circe @sweveris I think the QAR is nearby, so maybe he just sent someone over to get that stuff when he decided to do the fuckery.

And I’m 100% certain the ball-chafing is a thing that keeps happening and Izzy will have to tend to Ed. He doesn’t mind doing it, but he DOES mind that chafed balls make Ed cranky.

@tikli @sweveris I know the original intent was that the QAR was sailing along side the Revenge but we never did see it. It amuses me to imagine that Blackbeard had all his coolest fuckery stuffy sent over to the Revenge early on as part of his plan to murder Stede, and then he sent the QAR back to his lair on Ocracoke Island and told his crew to wait for him there. They're still there bc no one told them Blackbeard changed his mind and decided to date Stede instead.
