Summary
Desperate to pull Ed back from the abyssal brink of the Kraken, Izzy makes a deeply guarded confession. Their long history together can’t open a path back in time to repair the damage, but it can help them chart a better course forward. That is, until Stede Bonnet returns from the grave with the marooned crew of the Revenge to interrupt and complicate their reconciliation.

“You should talk to him,” Izzy says in a low voice, resting a hand on Ed’s arm. “Privately.”
“What?” Ed scowls and flicks his eyes over to Stede, who is pretending not to be able to hear them from where he is admiring Mary’s painting.Izzy sighs. “It’s unresolved, Edward. Trust me, this isn’t the kind of thing to let fester.” He squeezes Ed’s arm gently. “Talk to him. Get the answers you need.”
Ed’s shoulders relax minutely, the hard set of his jaw loosening. Izzy crosses the cabin to Stede. He snaps his fingers and holds out his palm to Bonnet. “Knife.” He shoots a glance to Edward. “You, too.” Stede pulls his ornate dagger in its sheath from his belt and hands it over without a fuss. Ed does the same a bit more begrudgingly. “Don’t fucking kill each other.”Series

Summary
"As requested," Stede chirrups, waving the folded parchment tantalizingly.
Ed lifts a brow, a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth. "He finally wrote me one?"
Love letters had become a staple between Stede and Izzy, and while Ed was fine to let them be kept something private between the two of them, he found himself jealous that they wouldn't write him any, whether or not he could read them. “Why not just say it?” he'd asked, frustrated. Stede tried to explain that that was the whole point of a love letter; it's all the things you feel so deeply, the love so raw like a wound that you can't say them out loud. They have to be written to get them out.
So, Izzy and Stede had agreed to write Ed letters and swap them, reading each other's to him.
