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
Ed and Stede meet as strangers one night on a New York subway platform when Stede discovers an abandoned newborn baby. Both men are instantly infatuated with him (and each other). When they attend the court hearing for his case, the judge spontaneously decides to offer Stede custody, which he accepts– only to realize afterwards that she assumed they were a couple.
The two men immediately craft a plan to pretend to be together in order to keep the baby, creating fake backstories, coaching their friends, and moving in together... into the same bedroom... and the same bed. But what they didn't anticipate was falling head over heels in love, not only with their son, but with each other.
Inspired by the TRUE STORY outlined in this article
Features: a very fast slow burn, fake dating, only one bed, pining while fucking, and other tropes

Summary
Relationships are overrated. Probably.
But Ed's home from grad school for a summer internship. And his co-intern Stede is... Well, he's cute. And he's eager.
It's just a casual thing, just co-interns with benefits, right? What could go wrong?

Summary
“Where you putting yours?” Ed’s eyes are roaming over Stede as if he’s trying to guess where he might want his tattoo.
Stede rolls up the billowy sleeve of his shirt to show off his right forearm. Oddly, Ed stares for a moment before nodding. “I want it to be where I can see it all the time. A reminder.”
Ed nods again. “I get that. That’s what mine is for too. My dad just died….”
“Mine, too,” Stede replies, sitting up eagerly. “I’m sorry for your loss,” he rushes to add since most people are sad about this sort of thing.
“Nah, my dad was a dick,” Ed says. “Sorry for your loss, though.”
“Um, my dad was a dick, too, actually,” Stede tells him, stifling a giggle. “I want some flowers. He always hated that I loved flowers, thought I was too ‘soft.’ But I’m taking his money and opening a florist stop, so I get the last laugh.”
To Stede’s surprise, Ed looks excited. “A florist shop! Sounds amazing, mate! Good for you.”
~~~~~
Stede Bonnet's life changes the moment Ed Teach walks into the tattoo shop he's sitting in. They bond over their terrible dead fathers, become friends, get tattoos, go to the Ren Faire, and fall in love along the way.

Summary
Ed's minding his business when the new neighbor's kid comes around holding a human puppet. It's creepy as hell, but as soon as the kid's father rounds the corner, Ed doesn't mind.
ETA: Podfic available here from Kninjaknitter my darling dearest
“Hello,” says the strangest voice Ed’s ever heard, jolting him out of his reverie, sending his heart speeding into chaos.He opens his eyes and he’s staring straight at a stuffed animal in the shape of a human person. It is bald with a tiny hat and too-big eyes and it wears a blue shirt and a name tag that says Jeffy in the sort of scrawl normally reserved for words written in blood.
A puppet, he realizes several seconds beyond when it would have been appropriate to respond.

Summary
One summer day, two unlikely paths cross in the alley behind Bonnet Group’s towering skyscraper: Stede is at the end of his rope, and Ed’s just taking a smoke break. Of course, after they’ve become inseparable, Ed’s past catches up to him as Stede tries to find a way out of his own obligations, and the solace they’ve found in each other is threatened.
“You’re freaking out in here,” Lucius says, shutting the door behind himself. He grabs two rocks glasses from the bar cart and a decanter of the good whisky and sets it all on Stede’s desk.“Astute,” Stede declares. “I’ve asked Ed on a date.”
“Ooh, Mr. Mechanic?” Lucius simpers, and Stede blushes. “Haven’t you two been dating for weeks?”
“Wh—No, we’re friends!” He says.
“Oh, my God, you can’t be serious,” Lucius says.

Stede Bonnet has inherited his father's house in the super exclusive neighborhood of Caribbean Cay. It's been sitting vacant while his father was in hospice, and it needs a lot of work.
Blackbeard's Crew is the best full renovations firm in the city, and Bonnets always hire the best.
It's too bad that his high school nemeses, Nigel and Chauncy Badminton, live in Caribbean Cay, as does his ex-wife and her new beau.

Summary
"Ed finally saw why the club was called Bottoms as they were led into a larger room. There were rows of people with their lower halves on display, just ready to be fucked, their upper halves and faces hidden by what looked like some sort of private pod attached to a wall. Some were standing bent over, while others were laying down, their legs up in stirrups. The light was dimmed down to a soft glow, and there was music playing loud enough to muffle the sounds of skin slapping against skin, but not so loud that they’d have to yell to hear each other."
--
Ed's had a crush on his boss Stede ever since he started working for him a year ago. When he gets the perfect opportunity to get the crush out of his system, he takes it. He doesn't count on it being such a good experience that he can't stop thinking about it.
