   Summary

   The day they get married, the things he knows about Stede could fit on a post-it note.

   First: he’s fucking rich.

   Second: he needs a husband to stay that way.

   Third: he is built like a brick shithouse. Pretty eyes, nice hair. Penchant for weird socks.

   (Or: 5 times Ed doesn't tell his husband he loves him, and 1 time he does.)

   Summary

   Ed and Stede are at a party thrown by Lucius and Pete. They don't really know each other. And then they're shoved in a closet for that immortal game that I'm sure has never actually happened in real life called "Seven Minutes in Heaven."

   Guess what happens. No, really. Guess.

   Summary

   But then Ed was struck with a truly ingenious idea.  “Hey,” he said, nudging Stede until he tilted his head up enough to look back at him.  “I mean.  Y’know.  We could.”  He gestured between the two of them.  “If you wanted.”

   It took Stede a second to catch on, but as soon as he did, his eyes went wide.  “You mean… pretend to be a couple?”

   A Spaced inspired fic for TV AU week, in which our heroes hatch up a fake relationship fuckery.

   Summary

   Edward Teach is on a path to redemption. He's cast aside his past as The Kraken, a fierce warlord and destroyer of thousands of lives. Unsure of what redemption truly means, the former monster runs into Stede, a villager in need of a different path himself. Their courage will...change the world.
