Summary
When Ed Teach gets into a car accident on the road to nowhere, a kindly family offers him a ride, and he is accidentally whisked away to Phillip Island at the beginning of its weekend-long whale festival. Shortly after he arrives, Ed meets whale watching tour guide, Stede Bonnet, and Stede takes Ed under his wing to experience everything the island has to offer. In the course of the weekend, Ed comes to terms with some pain in his past, and he finds the courage to begin a new journey where he may finally find true happiness.

Summary
Stede Bonnet loves his best friend. Ed Teach *loves* his best friend, who is both straight and engaged to "pleasant enough" Mary Allamby. All three of them are making the best of it until Father Bonnet announces for Stede's 30th birthday that he's set the wedding date. Are they all headed for misery or is there still a way to set all three of them free?

Summary
Weddings suck to go to when you're still dealing with the most intense heartbreak of your life. Ed's only going so Anne doesn't kill him (because he has no doubt she actually would). He's trying desperately not to think about Stede and the way he up and disappeared while being surrounded by happiness and celebrations of love, and it's going as well as it possibly can up until Stede himself shows up.
Stede, with his stupid fancy suit and his stupid cute face, quietly asking Ed to hear him out. If nothing else, maybe Ed can get some closure from this whole debacle and move on with his life. He's definitely not somewhat relieved to see the man again, even after everything. Nope. Not him.

Summary
“No!” Ed screams instinctively. He doesn’t know what’s happened, but he knows he’s heard a gunshot, and he knows Stede’s hands are slipping out of his, and he knows, a second later, that Stede’s let go of the railing to fall into the sea below.
Somebody grabs onto Ed’s shoulder, but he wrenches them off of him without a second thought. He wrestles his boots off, then his weapons, but he doesn’t care to tear off anything else— there isn’t time for it, not now, not when—
“Captain, don’t!” Frenchie shouts behind him.
Ed ignores him. The Revenge doesn’t have a captain if Stede Bonnet’s not on board.

Summary
In Ed's experience, there's nothing quite so effective at snuffing out a crush than the disappointment of a mediocre roll in the hay.
So, Ed has a plan: One quick fuck to get this crush on Stede out of his system.
It's a good plan. Solid, simple, and definitely, one hundred per cent foolproof.
Right?
