    Summary

    Even Stede’s composure was slipping, his breath ragged. “Such a sweet little kitten for me.”

    Ed squeezed his eyes closed as a wave of pleasure shivered through him at the words. Made his stomach clench.

    Because fuck.

    Look at him, bent over a table, getting railed so tenderly he cried.

    Fuckin’ Blackbeard was someone’s sweet little kitten.

    The thought took him totally by surprise, and Ed came on the spot with a gut-wrenching sob.

    And that was. Well. That was something he should probably unpack at some point, right?

    **

    Historically, Ed has not enjoyed it when people want to fuck Blackbeard. Not just fuck him, but fuck him. To be the person who gets Blackbeard on his knees. To make the legend beg, make him whimper and cry.

    And then came Stede Bonnet.

    Summary

    Ed picks Stede up at a bar for what ought to be a one-night stand, but it turns out they're attending the same academic conference the next day.

    “Yes, please, a – Loose Cannon, did you say? Really, how charmingly nautical.” There. Words. Sub-optimal words, but words nonetheless. He grins, aiming it toward the stranger while taking him in in smaller doses. Leather boots, faded, artfully ripped black jeans, a purple cropped shirt under a silky, billowy black – kimono? Overshirt? Facial scruff. Lots of hair, salt and pepper, pepper only just winning out, for now. Tattooed knuckles, forearms, collarbone. Earring, silver stacking rings on most fingers, a nose stud that somehow softens the whole, well, lewk and – okay, he’s staring. He stares some more as the man reaches to accept his own drink, revealing more tattoos up the arm and an inch more of skin below the crop top. The stranger makes some obscure gesture to the bartender, then meets Stede’s eyes, which he worries might actually be protruding from his skull, like a cartoon. AwOOga.

    Summary

    Edward’s not a pirate, and he’s not a fisherman, and he’s for fuck’s sure not even a bloody innkeeper. He’s a goddamn handyman, is what he is.

    Ed, innkeeping, and identity.

    Summary

         Ed says, "You gotta quit beating yourself up, mate."
         "I will, I will," says the guy, in a tone that implies he's going to dwell on the events of this night until the heat death of the universe.
         Ed tentatively pats his shoulder. "It's really not that bad."
         It really wasn't. Even if it wasn't exactly fun to walk home after work on a dull Wednesday night only to have some rando come pelting up to him yelling a name that wasn't even his: "Edgar! Edgar, I want to talk to you!"
