  4. Summary

    This challenge is dedicated to my fandom friends, who encouraged me to post my fic in the first place, who introduced me to Tunisian carrot salad, who are always there for me to brainstorm and commiserate on what a difficult lot we writers have, who leave the loveliest and most generous comments on my fic and who have taught me so much!

    Summary

    Ed looks from the open drawer to the gentleman beside him. It just isn’t possible. There’s just no way that Stede Bonnet, dripping in silk and gold brocade, with his cherub curls and bows on his heels, keeps a drawer full of dildos.

    There’s no fucking way.

    ~~~

    Or, Stede is wildly experienced but offers to role-play a blushing virgin for Ed.

    Summary

    “You may kiss the groom,” the celebrant concludes, and Ed raises one eyebrow right at the same time that Stede whispers, too quiet for the crowd to hear, “Will you?”

    And Ed nods, sliding his palm up to cup Stede’s jaw and pulling him in for the softest of kisses. It’s brief, barely a touch really, but Stede practically melts beneath him, leaning into his touch. When Ed pulls away, he smiles and it’s full of sunshine and it warms Ed’s heart.

    This is his husband. His husband.

    Stede lets out a little nervous, sweet huff. “It’s nice to meet you,” he murmurs, and Ed can’t help the snort of laughter that falls from his throat.

    The Married At First Sight (Australia) AU you didn’t know you wanted.

    Summary

    Professional thief Edward Teach is tired of hole in the wall apartments, shitty pub food, and skipping town every few months to keep the cops off their tail. He’s well past the age he meant to flee the country and retire, and all he needs is One Last Job to set him up for life. When he hears that some rich bastard outside of town has just the sort of treasure he’d trade his good knee for, Ed sets out in disguise to get the lay of the land.

    What he gets instead is a case of mistaken identity. Yanked into Stede Bonnet’s multimillion dollar home and greeted with relief instead of fear, Ed suddenly finds himself entrusted with the care of the recently-separated Bonnet’s two children. And he’s not hating it. Not at all.

    But there’s still a mysterious treasure to find. There’s still Izzy Hands, breathing down Edward’s neck about finding the money and moving on. And there’s still Stede Bonnet, with his easy smiles and soft, kind voice, and his silly talk of second chances.

    The Bonnet house is enormous. It’s no wonder a kid who grew up in dingy squats and group homes would get little lost in it.
