The Bells of St Augustine by Davechicken, Shadow_Side
Fandoms: Our Flag Means Death (TV)
12 Mar 2026
Tags
Summary
With Inaltus taken care of, and some last-minute shenanigans dealt with, Stede, Ed, Izzy, Lucius and Pete head off to enjoy their long-awaited polymoon in style. When they get home, things finally seem to be going back to normal... until the Bellringers come calling, with an offer the boys can't quite refuse, and a whole raft of new problems along with it.
And that's not even counting the crack-dealing lesbians, the international visitors, or the challenge of trying to plan Jack and Maynard's wedding.
And let's not get started on what Ricky Banes is really up to...
Ask not for whom the bell tolls... because you might just find out!

Summary
Ned Low - a successful international businessman and secret serial-killer - and Francis Spriggs - an agent of MI6 - meet at a party and quickly realise they have certain particular tastes in common. In another world, they stayed at arm's length, but this time they both decide to take a risk... and end up realising they're perfect together. A lot of people die as a result... whilst certain others are spared the crosshairs.
Because even serial-killers deserve a happy ending sometimes.

The Golden Age of Revenge by Davechicken, Shadow_Side
Fandoms: Our Flag Means Death (TV)
17 Jul 2025

Summary
It's six months since Stede and Ed - and Izzy, Lucius and Pete - returned from Florida, and life at the Operation Revenge taskforce has finally been stable for a time. But when an unexpected body turns up, it immediately sets them back on a long-inevitable path, towards two long-inevitable foes, and what follows will push every one of them to the very limit.
After all... Ned Low is not a man you want as your enemy. Nor is Francis Spriggs. And together, they've got their sights set on a little revenge of their own.
Or a lot. Possibly a lot. In fact, you might say they're planning the performance of a lifetime...

Summary
With the grand conspiracy unravelled and Operation Revenge ongoing indefinitely, Stede and Ed jet off to enjoy their well-earned honeymoon in peace. But an unexpected call that leads to an even more unexpected meeting soon has them both drawn right back in, and whilst the UK may be saved, things on the other side of the pond are only just heating up.
Though one thing remains clear: you can take the copper out of London, but you can't take London out of the copper.
Not when justice is still at stake.

Summary
London, England, 2113. Wayward MI5 agent Stede Bonnet finds himself loaned out to the London Police Department as joint head of a new organised crime taskforce, Operation Revenge. But he soon realises he may have taken on more than he bargained for when he meets his co-captain, Ed Teach; a man with a very different outlook on the law and how to enforce it, and far more experience of the mean streets than Stede could ever have.
And then they find themselves on the trail of a conspiracy. A real conspiracy. One that runs higher and deeper than either of them realises.
Common sense may not prevail. But justice will.
