Summary
Maybe out of hiatus soon - I think I know how I want this to end, I just have to connect the dots. <3
Alma runs away from home, away from an arranged marriage. She's trying to find her father, but after a bit of a miscommunication ends up reuniting an estranged family, and maybe finding a new family of her own.
Izzy struggles after being banished to the QAR post Kraken/Ed and Stede's reuniting. He's trying to keep it together, but he's definitely not thriving.
Speaking of struggling to keep it together, our boy Ed is also not doing so hot.
Alternates between Alma POV and Izzy POV and now Ed POV. Who knows, maybe we'll add more POVs! Stay tuned. We did it. We added a Stede POV.

Summary
Izzy looks over at Stede, gingerly attempting to coo at a cat that hates him while she shreds his expensive, fancy slippers to pieces. His heart aches in a new and terrible way that has nothing to do with Ed, for once. ‘If you’re sure.’
The smile Stede gives him is warm, a weighty significance to it that Izzy doesn’t know how to read. ‘I am.’
Or, Izzy finds himself at the centre of the ocean's weirdest found family, and acquires two boyfriends along the way.

Summary
When Edward Teach meets Stede Bonnet, a night of getting quietly drunk in Las Vegas turns into a whirlwind romance. It ends in a wedding chapel at two in the morning, with Ed standing at the altar alone.
Wait. Not alone - Izzy is there. He's the only thing that never leaves.
-
Izzy shuffles closer to Ed. His hand hovers in the air between them, floating high and then swooping low, back to his side, and then out again. He finally rests it, so light Ed can barely feel the touch, on his shoulder.
“Edward,” he murmurs.
“Marry me,” Ed says.
“What.”
“Marry me, Iz.”

Summary
“You must have balls of motherfucking steel, to show your face after what you did.”
Ed is used to Jackie. It’d been several years since he’d last set foot in Jackie’s tavern—while he continued to send Izzy to the Republic to handle business, he hadn’t gone himself since he’d begun to grow jaded with the whole ‘dread pirate Blackbeard’ schtick—but he remembered all of Jackie’s little idiosyncrasies. It was rather hard to forget watching Jackie shoot a man dead to stop a bar brawl, after all.
Ed isn’t used to being on the business end of Jackie’s gun, but he’s not exactly worried—yet. He’s come to retrieve his runaway first mate, and while he doesn’t understand what he did, as Jackie had put it, the fact that Jackie is shoving the barrel of her gun in-between his eyes is all the proof he needs that Izzy is somewhere in the tavern.
--
Izzy never meant to unleash the kraken. He thought that Ed understood that.

Summary
“Do you want to talk about it?”
He does, he realises. He’s wanted to talk about it for a long, long time but didn’t know who to talk to because everyone he knows is a common friend of theirs, because who in their right mind would take his side in this mess when Edward looks so damn happy, when he’s always been the nice and funny one and Israel the grumpy, short-fused buzzkill. It’s easier to speak to someone he barely knows, and Sam is a good listener.
OR: Izzy gets dumped after seven years together with Ed and is not handling it well. so what are the chances of him not blowing it when Jackie introduces him to a man that seems to be tailor-made for him?

Summary
Stede Bonnet lives his life playing it safe. Safe means he flies under the radar. Safe means he doesn't get hurt. Safe is totally boring. Then, along comes Ed, a chance meeting in the mall bringing them together. Ed is a little rough around the edges, but he's smart and he's brave, and he rides a motorcycle and wears neon colors, and he has this curly hair that's always falling into his eyes. Ed couldn't be any less safe and Stede finds himself utterly intrigued.
Edward Teach lives his life on the edge, pushing boundaries, and making bad decisions. Ed’s philosophy in life is to make it through another day alive, just survive, but when he meets Stede, the adorable strawberry blonde nerd, at the mall, he can't help but feel like something has been missing. Stede is all nervous energy and playing by the rules but Ed thinks he sees a complete lunatic hiding behind that buttoned-up façade. If only he can get Stede to do something crazy?
The other might just be what each needs to find new purpose and shake up their lives, if outside forces don't get between them first.

Summary
Stede and Israel Hands-Bonnet are a struggling married couple looking for a fresh start, so naturally they’ve purchased a gorgeous dilapidated Victorian estate on the foggy coast of Maine- or well, Stede purchased it, online, on a whim, and now Izzy is tasked with cleaning up his mess- quietly deciding to fix up the place to flip for a tidy profit so they can finally call it quits. Of course, neither of them were counting on the house being haunted by the bewitching and alluring spirit of Blackbeard- a ghost who will irrevocably alter their perception of everything- but most importantly how to love one another better.

Summary
Just when Ed thought immortality was a curse designed to keep him living in a limbo of grief, guilt, and the haunting memories of a life he'd long since left behind, he's faced with a challenge he hadn't even considered possible:
His hairstylist looks, walks, and talks exactly like Stede Bonnet.
Except he can't be Stede Bonnet. Stede Bonnet died at the end of a rope in 1718.
But if it walks like a Stede and talks like a Stede....
There's a cosmic fuckery afoot.

Summary
Ed doesn't mess around with humans anymore. They're too dangerous, too unpredictable, and tend not to take kindly to the fact that Ed is a terrifying sea monster... even though he hasn't done any terrifying shit for quite a while. Then a new lighthouse keeper moves in, and Ed - despite his best efforts - falls hard. But how the fuck can a kraken woo a human man?
Luckily, said human is a bit of a cryptid enthusiast. And Ed happens to know most of the magical creature community this side of the Pacific Ocean. Now all he has to do is convince them to help him romance the man of his dreams.

My take on the classic literal kraken!Ed and lighthouse keeper!Stede except the whole crew are magical creatures and it's a silly romcom.Bookmarked by Startink

Summary
Jack notices the ring’s absence almost immediately—which is saying something, since Jack wouldn’t notice the thrice-damned ship was on fire if he was burning with it.
He waits a while to see if Izzy will mention its disappearance—or give any kind of indication that he’s realized something is... missing. A week passes, then two. By the start of the third, Jack finds himself wondering if Izzy isn’t trying to tell him something. Jack’s never been one for subtlety—if there’s something you want him to know, you’re probably going to have to beat him over the head with it—but...
