    Summary

    The distinction between Steve’s face scrunched in pain and Steve’s face scrunched in anger is minimal. Peña notices it, nonetheless.

    “Fuck you, Peña, my fucking wife left,” he bites back, grunting as he pulls himself up into a sitting position.

    Javier’s had enough of Steve’s bullshit, and taking another long drag, he retaliates with just as much fight. “Maybe your wife fucking left because she had to deal with this goddamn bullshit all the time!”

    It’s unfortunate how quickly he regrets those words. Almost as quickly as how the fire lighting Steve’s face fizzles out to anguish.

    Summary

    “You’re staring again.”
    “Sorry.”
    Bucky drops his gaze fast, down and away from the man currently reading the news on their shitty motel bed. He stares, he’s well aware, because every time he does, Sam calls him on it. It’s not like he minds Sam calling him out, but it’s also not like he can help himself.

    Summary

    Sam reaches out a hand and slowly, so very, very slowly, traces a finger along the seam on Bucky’s shoulder, where flesh blends into metal.

    ‘You gonna tell me why you keep wincing every time you put pressure on it today?’

    Bucky stays. Very, very still. Doesn’t shiver. He doesn’t. ‘’s nothing.’

    ‘Right,’ Sam drawls, sounding like he doesn’t trust a word coming out of Bucky’s mouth. Which. Fair enough. ‘So whose face met your nothing?’

    or; five times Bucky doesn’t give in, and one time he does

    Summary

    “Well then let’s make a deal, shall we?”

    “What kind of deal?” Ed raised an eyebrow, as showy as ever.

    “I’ll teach you to read, and in return, you finally teach me how to swordfight properly.”

    “I have been!”

    “Edward.” Stede rolled his eyes. “You let me stab you, that’s hardly the same thing.”

    “Good a skill as any.”

    “You’re ridiculous.” Stede huffed, but he put his hand out anyway, because it was Ed, and he couldn’t resist his charms if he tried. “So, is it a deal?”

    “I think we have an accord.” Ed grabbed his hand in a firm shake, his calloused palm burning warm. “It’s gonna be fun.”

     

    Sometimes your co-captain teaches you to swordfight and you teach him to read and you don't fall in love even a little.

    Summary

    Set after some vaguely-defined season two events where Stede proves his love to Ed, and they return together to The Revenge to finally get some time alone.

    I just want them to be together, and in love, and having truly spectacular sex, so here we go.

    Summary

    Edward presses another slow kiss to Stede's lips, then another, and another- and then Stede is the one taking “just a quick one", then “one more”, then “Ed, please one more, just one.”

    Summary

    The culture Stede comes from is one where sexual relations are not to be spoken of outsides the bounds of the marriage bed.

    Meanwhile, Ed has grown and thrived out where talking about who you bed and what they were like is as common as the sea.

    They do not realize the differences in attitude on the subject until Ed's old bedmate comes to visit.

    Summary

    “I'm not unaware you know. About the, ah, birds and bees as they say,” Stede chatters on. “I know other people enjoy it, so why not me? Why not us?” Stede’s gaze flicks downward, then away. A delicate pink blossoms in his cheeks.

    “Oh! Oh this --” Ed gestures towards his erection.

    Stede nods, blushing furiously.

    “Nah, I’m all good. Peak of bliss right here, nothing better."

    ---

    Ed tries his best to be a gentleman (and maybe has his own hang-ups to work through), but Stede wants to be pirates.

    Summary

    Ed laid on his side on Stede’s bed, head supported by his hand, elbow disappearing in the soft bed linens. Stede was on his back, looking at him like he couldn’t quite believe his eyes.
    They’d been talking for hours, their end-of-the-day talk in Stede’s rooms turning into something winding and philosophical that carried them way past midnight and onto Stede’s bed. Something Stede had only just come to notice, or more precisely, noticed the breathtaking intimacy of, as he looked up into Ed’s eyes and the familiar urge to kiss him loudly took up all the space in his head.

    Summary

    Edward is about to use the spoon, but then he wonders how Stede would react to something a little different— so he discards the silver cutlery, ignores Stede's confused look and sinks his index finger right into the jar.
    Stede makes a weird sound, something between distressed and aroused.
    Edward looks at him with his Blackbeard gaze and says: "Open your mouth."

    -

    Edward and Stede end up playing with food. And each other.

    Summary

    “Can we speak? Somewhere more private, perhaps?”

    “We can speak right here, mate. In front of the crew and god and this cherry masted ship and anything else that might be watching. You abandoned us all, so whatever you need to say, you can say to us all.”

    “I love you.”

    “That,” Ed said in a flat voice, “is a hell of a fucking thing to say.”

    Summary

    Cleave the pin (slang, 1595) To bring a man to orgasm.

    It’s a sobering thought for someone facing middle age to wrestle with, this notion one might be less than appealing in bed, and while he’d always known he was no Don Juan, Stede thought himself perfectly adequate in the art of making love. But ‘perfectly adequate,’ when facing the prospect of reuniting with the man that may very well be the love of his life, feels (pathetic, mortifying, distressing) like a quandary.

    Stede exhales, warm breath stirring Ed's hair. "Again?"

    Summary

    "Hey." Ed reaches across because it's the only thing that feels right. He grasps Stede's wrist and smoothes the pad of his thumb across his knuckles. Stede stops fiddling with his ring and looks up at him, wide-eyed. "This isn't Captain shit. This is God shit. Are you God?"

    The room is blank with silence.

    Gently, Ed repeats, "Are you God, Stede?"

    Stede's voice is thin and high when he answers, "I'm not God."

    "And is God here, in this room?"

    Comically, Stede looks around like he might find God perched on the edge of his desk, or pulling books from his shelves to examine the spines.

    "He's not," Stede concedes.

    "That's right, mate. Stupid bugger doesn't associate himself with pirates."

     

    Or: The Revenge has been becalmed for six days. Ed has bigger things to worry about, like sharks and being in love.

    Summary

    “Morning,” is the first thing Ed hears.

    Sensation overwhelms him before he can blink the sleepy blur from his vision: soft, supple linens wrapped around him, and his arms, wrapped around a warm, breathing form. The sun’s heat streams in a little too hot, the way he hates in the morning, after its risen fully and burns his fucking eyes. He doesn’t mind the sting when he opens them this morning. There’s a gentle grumbling grabbing his attention instead.

    Stede’s rustling against him, so it must have been him, then. Talking. So early.

    Summary

    “He left you here? To… to die?”

    The crew mutters in agreement. They can see it on his face clear as day: Stede Bonnet has trouble believing his ‘Ed’ would ever do such a thing.

    “It must have been a – a misunderstanding! We should go talk to him.”
