    Summary

    “Happy anniversary,” Ed tells him. He’s got a smile, but he still seems nervous, and Stede absolutely cannot have that.

    He surges up into him, tugging him down into a ferocious kiss, unable to stop himself from automatically parting his lips and licking into him. Ed grins, his smile going from anxious to delighted; his hands grip Stede’s hips, draw him in. He’s eager in return, meets his kiss with enthusiasm, gives as good as he gets in tilting his head and meeting him beat for beat.

    They part, Stede peeling himself away so he can ask, desperately, “What— How long— S— What?”

    “We met two years ago today,” Ed tells him.

    “If you’d call that meeting,” Oluwande comments.

    “What else would you call it, then?” the Swede asks.

    “A living nightmare,” Izzy grumbles.

    “A naval attack,” Ivan answers, at the same time Roach replies, “A meet-cute.”

    “Disgusting?” Jim suggests.

    “Best day of my life,” Ed adds on top of it all, “Or one of ‘em, anyway.”

    Summary

    “See them?” Ed asks, his breath a warm puff against Stede’s cheek where he ducks closer, almost conspiratorial.

    “I’d have to be bloody–blind not to,” Stede manages, remembering again to breathe. “Beautiful.”

     

    When Stede is a bit reticent about coming on deck barefoot for a 'surprise,' Ed forces the matter. Shameless fluff, in a nebulous timeline pre Episode 8.

    Summary

    Stede chuckled to himself despite it all. He wasn't a pirate, he was a little rich boy playing pretend. Well, look where it got him. This was the closest he’d ever been to being an actual pirate, locked in a dim cell awaiting his death. Stede allowed his eyes to fall closed again.

    Or, Stede was kidnapped and Ed would tear the earth apart to find him.

    Summary

    Stede can’t help crying out in pain, in the next beat, finally giving in when an instinctive sound comes up. It’s loud, and the crew goes dead silent around him.

    Stede doesn’t even notice. He’s just trying to breathe, skin tugging painfully, when a door bangs open at the opposite end of the ship.

    “What the fuck was that?” Ed demands from afar, voice heard easily over the crash of the sea around them. “Was that Stede? Where the fuck is he?”

    “Oh, no,” Lucius says quietly.

    “If you jump overboard, babe, I swear I’ll come back for you,” Black Pete promises him.

     

    or: lucius accidentally gives stede a flesh wound, and ed loses his mind like they're not all pirates.
