Summary
Ed is offered up by his family to marry the crown prince of Dulchene in exchange to save what is left of their country and their army. His voyage to Dulchene is ripe with abuse and mistreatment-- bringing a very different man than who he was when left his homeland. Ed has sworn that he will make the royal family pay for what was done to him-- to his country-- but he didn't count on Stede.
Stede is nothing like the other people Ed has met from Dulchene. He's thoughtful, kind, and endearing-- even if he's a bit eccentric. Ed is drawn to him even before he finds out he's the man he's sworn to hate forever-- the man he's promised he'd even kill if the opportunity arises. There are a lot of missteps, some lies, a whole lot of grief, but as Ed learns to trust Stede and Stede learns to trust Ed in return, they figure out that some things are worth the struggle to build.
There might even be a chance to make their world a better place once Stede and Ed figure out what's happening between them. They might just even figure out that they've been falling in love far longer than they care to admit, even amidst a terrible war that costs both their countries everything.

Summary
Dr. Ed Teach should have everything he wants. He’s a highly acclaimed researcher with a stellar reputation, several of his lab’s papers have been published in Nature, and he’s making a ton of money.
But he isn’t happy at all, he’s bored out of his fucking skull.
Dr. Stede Bonnet is eager, enthusiastic, and passionate, but struggles constantly to get funding for his projects. Devoting his life to studying a species of mice that live atop mountains may have been a grave mistake.
But a chance meeting at a zoology conference may be enough to both help Ed rediscover his passions and help Stede more successfully break into the world of academic research. And just maybe, they’ll discover something else too.Modern AU with Scientists Ed and Stede (cross-posted from Twitter)

Summary
It’s almost like a tale that Ed is composing in the midnight hours. He wonders how it will end. He wonders if anyone would entertain a story about a pirate and his gentleman.
For years, Edward Teach dreamed of a young blond man with shy smiles and a wild, ridiculous nature. They could never speak to each other, but in the long run it didn’t matter. They could touch, they could feel. Then the dreams stop, and Ed is left adrift.
Were they dreams if Ed can remember the soft skin of the other boy’s hand in his? Is it real if his only friend is someone he met in solitude?

Summary
“What the fuck,” Edward wonders out loud. Then to make sure he hasn’t just forgotten the past few days, he calls, “Izzy?”
Edward waits twice the time Izzy usually takes to show up, and comes to the weirdly pleasant conclusion that Izzy is not on the ship. There goes the theory of just being so out of it that he simply can’t remember stealing a fancy ship from some fancy people. Which is followed by the unpleasant conclusion that his kidnapping theory is right.

One of the most important rules of their culture was that vampires are the eternal mortal enemies of werewolves. If a pack got too friendly with vampires and another group found out, they would be obligated to remove the alpha who allowed that to happen.
Anton finds himself stepping further over that line than he ever intended.

Summary
It’s been two months since Stede has returned to the Revenge, and he and Ed have not yet had sex. This is fine. He’d be content just to stay by Ed’s side forever in a perfectly platonic fashion, if that’s what Ed wanted. Ed had made it abundantly clear that he does not desire a platonic relationship, though.
The real issue, Stede thinks, is that whenever it seems like it’s happening, something goes wrong.

Summary
“Are you sure you’re not married?” Stede swallows.
Something is tickling the back of his mind, a memory or dawning realisation or the hangover exasperated by the flashing lights of Las Vegas spilling onto the dishevelled bed. Stede pulls at his left glove, alarm coiling in his gut.
Ed snorts in amusement. “Yeah I’m sure. I think I’d remember if I got hitched.”
“Would you?” Stede says shakily.
He holds his hand between them. Around his ring finger is a band matching Ed’s exactly. Brand new, without a single scratch on it, golden and lovely.

Summary
Salvage diver Ed Teach is no stranger to the story of Blackbeard and the Queen Anne's Revenge- after all, the famous pirate is a distant ancestor. But then Professor Stede Bonnet, maritime archaeologist and many-times-great-grandson of the original, waltzes through the door of his shop and requests his services in finding the wreck. What are the odds?
Ed's had enough of the cutthroat world of salvage diving, and he's this close to leaving it all behind. But Bonnet's quest sparks an interest he hasn't felt in years, and he agrees to help the oddly charming man. Nothing to do with the fact that the Queen Anne might just be the last treasure trove Ed needs to escape his life. Definitely nothing to do with the way Bonnet's cheerful enthusiasm makes his heart skip a beat.
Together they'll hunt for the wreck... and then they'll reckon with what comes next.

Summary
Stede Bonnet spends his days tending his lighthouse and his cat, and reading in his library. His curiously large library where he's passed so much of his curiously long life. A life that's quiet and predictable and truthfully rather dull.
That is, until the storm comes.

Summary
Ed is an engineer aboard the Revenge, an interplanetary research vessel on a multi-year mission to study Jupiter's moon Europa. An accident requires that Ed awaken from cryostasis over six months early, and finds his only companion to be Stede, the ship's onboard AI. They develop an unconventional friendship, but is it possible to have more?
This is classic mutual pining with a sci-fi twist, inspired by all of my favorite stories about the nature of personhood.
-----
“You–” Ed was struggling to parse what Stede was saying. “You’re playing your version of this song for me, right now? Like, in real time?”“Yes, Edward, that’s correct,” said Stede softly.
Ed’s brain momentarily seized up. He supposed it made sense that Stede was capable of learning a set of rules to do something like arrange and play a piece of music. There was something unnerving about this song, though. It felt, well–it felt organic . Reactive. Almost collaborative in a way. Ed was lost in the push and pull of it, until the last notes softly petered out.
“So, what did you think?” asked Stede. It sounded nervous again. Why the hell would someone program an anxiety response into a bot?

Summary
“Bonnet,” Ed seethes, “is not your captain anymore.” The rage within him is only building, building, building.
R-right,” Frenchie stammers. “Well, clearly something—” He cuts himself off with a cough. “Well, sir, clearly something happened between the two of you, something that you two should talk about?” He strums the same familiar melody on his lute and begins to sing again.
“That pirate’s life
Would be nice
If Blackbeard and Bonnet made things right
Ful-lil-lad-dee-lil-idi-o.To reunite
Has not sufficed
Bonnet and Blackbeard must make things ri—”Ed doesn’t even let him finish the last word of his song before he rips the instrument from Frenchie’s hands and snaps the strings.
or; 5 times the crew of the Revenge try to convince Ed to talk to Stede, and 1 time they have a long overdue conversation.

Summary
“I mean, you kind of did the same thing yesterday,” Lucius tells him afterwards, when they’re reviewing the day’s adventure for the logbook. Ed’s somewhere out on deck, which is a very good thing, since Stede is having a bit of a panic. “And the day before, and the day before—”
“Did I really?” Stede wails in horror.
“And the day before,” Lucius confirms. “Except then it was ‘dear heart.’ No, wait, it was ‘my love.’ ‘Dear heart’ was the day before that. Actually, I don’t think you’ve called him by just his name in like, a week.”
Or, Stede realizes he's maybe, possibly started calling Ed rather revealing things.
