    Summary

    “Uh, I…hey?” Ed tried.

     

    Izzy and Stede stopped talking and turned to look at him. Stede smiled pleasantly, but Izzy’s expression was harder to read.

     

    “Oh, Ed,” Stede said. “It’s nice to see you on deck. How are you feeling today?”

     

    “Fine,” Ed said. “Fine, I just…uh.” He directed the next thing he said to Izzy. “I thought you might…this is for you.” He offered Izzy the tin mug.

     

    Izzy stared at it without speaking. Hurt, surprise, longing, wariness, wistfulness flickered across his face before he clamped down on them, setting his jaw. He took the mug and dumped it out into the sea.

     

    A fic where Izzy figures out his new place in the world through the love and care of the crew and Ed tries to patch up their marriage through food.

    Summary

    Ed wakes up from the nightmare in Stede's arms. He knows in reality it's just his own sweat, but he feels like he still has Izzy's blood on his hands, dripping down his face where Izzy in the dream had touched him for the last time.

    Summary

    Only when Izzy Hands has, at long last, given up on ever standing a chance of attaining what he most deeply desires and has resigned himself to focussing only on survival, his own and that of the skeleton crew left aboard the Revenge in the Kraken's reign, does the Wheel of Fortune for once begin to turn in his favour.

    The darkest night gives way to the brightest dawn.

    And maybe, just maybe, they can build something new from what is broken.

    Summary

    When he wasn't readying the crew to battle or planning their next move, Blackbeard hid away in his cabin. He drank too much, hardly spoke, and forgot to eat—so Izzy had to stay with him until he got his wits back. He'd done it before, years before they met Bonnet. He could do it again.

    Post-finale. Izzy tries to keep Blackbeard distracted.
