Upon returning, Stede had hopped up on deck nimbly, looking happy as a fucking clam—or maybe an oyster, more appropriately, because the moment he’d gotten Ed alone, he’d produced nothing other than a string of fucking pearls.

Summary
“You know what would make me even more beautiful?” Ed asks, wiggling his eyebrows.
“Being covered in diamonds, pearls in your hair, but I really can’t imagine you looking any more beautiful than you do right now.”
“Fuck, Stede that’s fucking lovely but I was thinking more along the lines of some new welts on my back and ass. You can break the skin, I don't mind.” He bats his lashes.
“Ed.” Stede gasps. “Shall I beat you black and blue on our wedding night?”
“Oh fuck, Stede.” Ed grinds up against the mattress. “That sounds so fucking hot.”
…
Started out as pirate smut, turned into a sprawling epic about gender identity, healthy relationships, found family, trauma resolution and anti-colonialism (and pirate porn, so much pirate porn.)
One third backstory, one third plot, one third pirates fucking through a wide variety of kinks, and 100% pure fluff between them.
(If you’re only here for the stedyhands, it’s chapters 13 and 14. You’re welcome.)

Summary
“Sometimes, the moon looks so pretty on the ocean I cry,” Stede admitted, looking across the room at the silk curtains that put his books to bed each night.
There was a fire crackling low in the mantle, casting strange shadows across the floor and wall. It crackled halfheartedly, trying to sound its best against the crashing, unending beat of the waves against the side of the ship. The wood of the hull creaked and groaned like a great beast made of dry bones stirring into life out of the wet sand. A low fog of smoke settled along each crease of Stede’s quarters, smelling mostly of the thick, sour scent of tobacco with just a hint of the musky clean earth smell of cannabis.
Edward sat still as a rocky cliff face in the chair just in front of the fire, the long stem of his pipe held a smoldering flame of lighthouse spark amongst the fog.
“Fuck, man,” Edward whispered, rolling each vowel quick and stucco with his accent off his tongue. “That’s fucking beautiful, mate. You oughtta write that down.”

Summary
Stede is ready to 'get back out there' after his divorce, but he's more than a little bit intimidated by the concept of online dating. After a series of truly terrible first dates, he's close to giving up on love altogether. Perhaps he's too old for all this Grindr nonsense.
And then, along comes a bartender called Edward Teach.

Summary
“Why don’t you leave that lit?” Ed asks, leaning back against the couch-thing—chaise, Stede has told him patiently at least a dozen times.
Stede freezes, still bent over the circle of candles on the table. The air smells of lilacs. “You’re the one who says they’re a fire hazard.”
“I’m willing to risk it for the way the light looks on your skin. I want to see you tonight.”

The downside to being stuck on a desert island is that Stede's not awfully good at adapting. The upside is that he and Ed can finally have some peace and quiet– that is, if Ed ever wakes up from the gunshot wound in his stomach.
Stranded in the middle of who-knows-where, Stede learns the art of reflection and how to embrace the man who looks back.
