    Summary

    He ducks under the ridge of the skull, unclips his bow, slips an arrow into the housing, and creeps around until he has a decent view of the trail. The stranger has slowed, staring up at the leviathan as they approach, hands on their hips. Ed steps out into view, raises his bow, and pauses.

    The stranger, as unknown as he currently is, is cute.

    Hylian, most likely. A little shorter than Ed, but broad looking under his tunic and cloak, pack sticking up over the top of his head, and visibly stuffed with god-knows-what. There’s a physical map sticking out from one of his pockets, and leaves in his hair, and he’s clearly not been gifted with powers of observance, because Ed’s been aiming a bow at him for the best part of two minutes, and he still hasn’t noticed.

    And then, all at once, his gaze drops, and his eyes widen, and he all but screams.

    “I’M FRIENDLY!”

     

    or: what if Ed and Stede just happened to be citizens in the Kingdom of Hyrule? And what if they had a serendipitous meet cute at the Great Eldin Skeleton and then fell in love? Suspend your disbelief, because this is that fic.

    Summary

    Was there a plan here? Did Stede think he never wanted to fuck again? Because Ed definitely wanted to fuck again. Like, a lot.

    And now they were here, at the inn, alone. The Revenge had sailed off into a buttery marmalade sunset with the whole crew, so it was just the two of them (and assorted small animals in varying stages of decomposition) in their perfect, partially collapsed new home.

    Ed was trying very hard not to think of it as a wedding night.

    Especially since it wasn’t one.

    Like, at all. They were not married. Not even close! And Stede knew pirate marriages existed—between all mix of genders. They’d just been to one. So if he wanted to be gay pirate married to Ed, he’d have said something.

    **

    It's Ed and Stede's first night at the inn together, and as usual Ed is feeling super normal about it.

    Summary

    Ed takes a deep breath and then spits the words out as fast as he can, not looking Stede in the eye. “You seemed like you might be kinda interested in puppy play stuff, but I didn't know how to get you to talk about it so I bought you all this shit in case you wanted to try it but it's fine if you don't, I can return it. Well, I probably can't, because, sex stuff, but like, fuck, I don't know, I'll chuck it away. Fuckin’ burn it or something. Whatever. Pretend this never happened.”

    *

    Or: Stede shows some interest in puppy play, and Ed is very enthusiastic about helping him explore it.

    Summary

    Brighton, UK.
    December 2024.

    Ed’s hatred of the festive season was somewhat alleviated by finally getting to meet, in rather dramatic circumstances, Stede. Stede was the proprietor of the newly-opened tailors and gentlemen’s outfitters The Best Revenge. There was some irresistible force between them, almost as though they were always supposed to meet.

    Through a series of encounters and social engagements, they got to know each other better. As the new year drew closer, so did they.

    Summary

    Edward Teach is a pop star about to embark on his latest tour when he develops vocal nodes. Stede Bonnet is the voice specialist who treats him. Sparks fly.

     

    “Right. And could you please describe your singing voice to me? Or sing something you feel showcases your voice, if you feel comfortable. For my usual clientele, I’d suggest their go-to audition song, but I don’t get the sense that you do much auditioning.”

     

    There’s a long pause during which Stede takes note of the guy’s eyes. Not a literal case note, that would be inappropriate. His eyes are large and brown and expressive, quicksand eyes. Eyes a person could get lost in. Right now, they’re slightly narrowed at Stede. He seems to decide something.

     

    “Listen,” the client says. “I appreciate you not wanting to make it weird, but I promise I’m used to it.”

     

    “Used to it?” Stede asks, and there go the eyes again. Stede has the oddest sense of being taken apart, exposed, like the recurring dream he has of walking through the halls of his secondary school without a single stitch of clothing on, down to the same vague, unsettling sense that it should be more awkward than it is.

    Summary

    Mary Allamby has great reasons to hate the fucking ocean, but this sits above all others: when she's 19, her ship is raided by fearsome pirate Benjamin Hornigold, who insists that one of his crew choose someone from the crowd for nefarious reasons. Edward Teach chooses Mary, but instead of assaulting her like he's commanded to he keeps her safe all night, forging a deep friendship and a sizzling chemistry that will burn on for more than two decades.

    Bonded by shared trauma, Ed meets Mary again ten years later on the eve of her arranged marriage, and she begs him to give her something real to remember throughout all the coming years of suffering social expectations.

    They all meet again fifteen years later, when Mary's now-departed ex-husband Stede brings home his newfound love, Ed, to meet the family...

    Summary

    Ed has a list of ways he thinks he’s likely to die. In battle is the lame but obvious first choice, jealous lover is number six, and way, way, way down at number one hundred and eighty five is “fucked to death by a snake monster.”

    It is, however, number sixty two on his “sexual experiences I’d like to have before I die” list, so he thinks it’ll probably even out.

    Summary

    ...Bilbo had been shocked still, and had halfway convinced himself it was a dream. But the muddy prints and stench remained.

    Bilbo realized, right then.

    He had just spoken to something Other, and it sought his immortal soul.

     


    (or, something follows Bilbo home after a picnic on the lake of his estate; it wears his husband's face.)

    Summary

    There was a man having a breakdown in the middle of the canned goods aisle.

     

     

     

     

     

    At any other time, Ed would’ve just backed slowly away with his trolley and completed the rest of his shopping, leaving the guy to his own devices, only returning once the coast was clear to pick up what he needed. Except that he had done that, three times in fact, and now was aware he was circling the soup, UHT milk, and coffee aisle like a forgetful shark.

     

    Modern au where Ed, a famous chef, offers to help a stranger cook a meal. Look, in his defence, the guy was cute, ok?

    Summary

    “You know I’d be perfectly glad to give you a crack at it, Ed. I’d…it’s always me. And of course, I thoroughly enjoy a…a good round of cards. But if you’d like a turn, I–I think I’d actually rather enjoy giving you the reins for once.”

    And why the fuck does his voice sound so pitchy and anxious and tight?

    It’s…it’s fucking solitaire.

    “Just don’t think I’ll be as good at it as you, love,” Ed murmurs truthfully.

    “I think–” Stede confesses quietly. “I think you’d be very good, if you were willing to give it a shot. Methodical. Careful. Gentle.”

    Ed frowns. He tilts his head to try and catch Stede’s gaze, but Stede quickly looks away.

    “Do you,” Ed begins, hesitant and feeling strangely wrongfooted, like there’s a conversation happening in Stede’s head that he isn’t a part of. “Do you need to be particularly gentle with playing cards?”

    (OR: Stede is not talking about solitaire. A post-canon romp about quality time, communication, sex, and being brave enough to ask for the things you want.)

    Summary

    Teaser:
    Pink, flustered, and snogged senseless, Stede wasn’t feeling particularly smart. “Ed,” he said softly, slowly, chasing Ed’s lips even as he voiced his objections. “This isn’t helping me with Izzy.”

    “I can go get him,” Ed suggested, smile absolutely wicked. “Didn’t know you wanted a third.”

    The squeak that escaped Stede’s lips was anything but dignified. “We don’t even have a second!”

    “Mmmm,” Edward hummed, bitting at Stede’s lower lip. “Gonna need more than a second.”

    “Oh fuck it,” Stede moaned, rolling his hips against Ed’s once more. “Israel can wait until tomorrow.”

    Summary

    "Sweet tooth?" the voice teases. Ed huffs a laugh and looks up from his mug.

    At a vision, captivating and radiant. At clear eyes, dynamic, crows feet crunched in the corners with a stubbled grin, objet d'art. At the art itself.

    "Massive."

    Ed signs up for a figure painting workshop and falls hard and fast for the model. It’s a shame he’s too much of a professional to do anything about it.
