#Izzy's glove

Has anyone had anything to say about izzy's little glove? I've seen the entire show analyzed back to front but i haven't seen anything about the glove. Is there ever a scene where he's not wearing it? Is it his sword hand so that's why he's always wearing it? Does it have anything to do with his name? What's under there???????
HES ALWAYS WEARING IT!!! and tbh I'm sure there is meta out there regarding the in text possibilities for it but we have so little info on it we can only speculate. Even in the almost-nakey scene in e10 his right hand was on his other side out of frame!!
In the most practical of explanations it could just be a glove for fencing
In the most fanfiction of explanations it could be covering gnarly scars
Could be he has a ratatouille situation under there
(Could be full of Vaseline to keep it soft for Blackbeard a la that guy from of mice and men lol)
Or maybe that's the hand he writes "Mr. Israel Teach" on over and over again! If he can write, I'm sure he does that somewhere.
Maybe the costuming director looked at the name "Izzy hands" and was like oh I have the funniest idea
WE JUST DONT KNOW - on a symbolic level tho...
as "Izzy" as he is, he's also just like. So fully buttoned and covered all the time (a fully tied actual tie! on a pirate!) - he is a fussy little man for one and I'm loving the recent metas showing how he and stede parallel in that regard. Costuming is SO DELIBERATE on this show I can't believe anything is coincidence. Ed and Stede dress down, unbutton their collars, and wear the red dressing gown as they become more vulnerable with each other. At the end of the season Ed trades in his fingerless gloves for full ones - closing himself back up. But Izzy is covered from neck to fingertip for 99% of the show - an indicator of a character who can show ZERO vulnerability. He is Blackbeards RIGHT HAND MAN (and is honored to be so) and this is how he shows it; never backing down from the role he plays, never showing fear or uncertainty, never SHOWING HIS HAND. Wearing full gloves is very in line with this type of character design.
So maybe the outlier we should be focusing on is actually his uncovered LEFT hand??? Why would that be his one vulnerable spot? In the western world, the left hand is one taken in marriage. if Blackbeard owns his right, who has his left? Is it the only part of him that's HIS, or is it someone else's? Or is he waiting, showing a peek of vulnerable skin adorned with an x (a signature, a treasure marker, a mirror of the one on his cheek) for the taking, for Blackbeard to claim it too?

imagine Izzy does die in the finale but it’s revealed he’s alive during the post-credit scene like some sort of goddamn marvel movie

So one of the world's greatest pirates. Who helped create the legend of Blackbeard. A brilliant fighter, both ruthless and cunning.
He accidently loses his grip on a rich ponce and gets shot. Just like that.

Unpopular Opinion O’clock!
I love all of the theories and I’m glad that people are coming up with their own headcanons, but here we go:
Izzy’s tattoo isn’t Ed’s signature. It isn’t an x at all, it’s angled a bit into points, wider in the middle. It’s most likely a North Star, a very common tattoo for sailors.
Izzy isn’t hiding anything under his one glove. It’s not about what’s under the glove, it’s about the glove itself. It’s a method of control- he can choose to use his gloved hand so that he has a barrier when making contact with people or objects, or use his non gloved hand for things like playing with the fire. It’s about being able to choose how much vulnerability he’s showing at any time, and being able to choose to put a thin layer of leather between him and another person, to make any contact “acceptable.”

Lil’ chibi Stede Bonnet I made for my friend’s OFMD birthday party! This isn’t “quarantine craft” anymore I guess lol, but the materials are the same old polymer clay (sculpey iii, to save time I bought more colors than one this time 😂), painted with colored pencils, pastel, and acrylic, and finished with Testor Dullcote overall and mod podge for the eye. The tie thing is a real string. More process under the cut

*the show playing in the background* I actually did the OPPOSITE hand first like I always do in art akajshdkashd and had to make this TINY hand again
My mom threw out our small convection oven (which I’ve used to bake all my other polymer clay) ever since we got an air fryer, and the big conventional oven takes too long to preheat so...after some brief research I decided to go for it and put Stede in the air fryer lmao. He survived beautifully.

Pondering all the bows and laces on Izzy's outfit and the perfect careful little bows he put in Ed's beard.
