Stede Bonnet, recent divorcee and author of the popular travel blog The Gentleman Pirate, decides to go on a cruise to clear his head. The Caribbean sun and all-inclusive cocktails ought to do just that…

Summary
Losing a swordfight on purpose in hard work, but not harder than watching from the sidelines as your captain slips further and further away from you each day. It’s not harder than losing the person you’ve built your life around, watching them choose a worthless nothing of a man over you, over and over and over again.
Stede comes back to the Revenge. Izzy decides to retire or die trying. He fails and they have sex about it.

Summary
“You wouldn’t want flowers in your hair, would you, Izzy?” Edward asks, voice dropping into the soft, musical cadence that Izzy associates with his calmest moods.
“Not really, no.”
“What if I told you to?” Still low, still gentle.
“Then I’d put fucking flowers in my hair, Edward, what—”
“Will you come to the party if I tell you to?”(Or: Izzy gets to go to the ball.)

“You’ve seen me sign my name, right?” Edward asks, another of his absurd non-sequiturs.

Summary
“You know what would make me even more beautiful?” Ed asks, wiggling his eyebrows.
“Being covered in diamonds, pearls in your hair, but I really can’t imagine you looking any more beautiful than you do right now.”
“Fuck, Stede that’s fucking lovely but I was thinking more along the lines of some new welts on my back and ass. You can break the skin, I don't mind.” He bats his lashes.
“Ed.” Stede gasps. “Shall I beat you black and blue on our wedding night?”
“Oh fuck, Stede.” Ed grinds up against the mattress. “That sounds so fucking hot.”
…
Started out as pirate smut, turned into a sprawling epic about gender identity, healthy relationships, found family, trauma resolution and anti-colonialism (and pirate porn, so much pirate porn.)
One third backstory, one third plot, one third pirates fucking through a wide variety of kinks, and 100% pure fluff between them.
(If you’re only here for the stedyhands, it’s chapters 13 and 14. You’re welcome.)

Bookmarker's Notes
He’d carried the image of the captain’s wife in his head from then on, just like he carried the square of red silk in his pocket. Both soft, and elegant, and valued, and completely out of reach.

Summary
Stede manages to be everywhere at once; his mouth pressed to the bird on Ed’s shoulder, his toes tracing the tattoo curving up his calf muscle, his fingers wrapped loosely around Ed’s wrist.
“I should quite like you immortalised in a portrait,” Stede murmurs against his skin. “Not Blackbeard, not the Dread Pyrate. You, Edward. Every inch of you, laid out beautifully like this.”
or: Edward Teach deserves nice things. Thankfully, that's where Stede comes in.Bookmarked by jessclare

Note to self: this is the ADHD!Ed fic you’re probably still thinking about. Note to everyone else: read it it’s so incredibly good.
