Summary
He could leave at any time. He could. It was all within his power. He was strong enough. He could walk away, make it all stop. He was in control of that, always had been, always will be.
That was the mantra Izzy kept repeating to himself as he parked up his car in the street behind the bar. Turning off the engine, he let his hands rest on the steering wheel for a moment, taking slow, deep breaths. No one would know. He just needed to act normal. He’d been doing that for months now, no one had said a word.Izzy tries to break free of his abusive relationship with CJ, going to the only people in the world he knows he can trust - his ex-husband Edward Teach and his new boyfriend, Stede Bonnet.
Inspired by the song 'Happier Than Ever' by Billie Eilish. Please mind the tags, abusive relationship, descriptions of violence and injury. But then lovely care and cuddles after.

Summary
“Hey,” Ed says to him. He doesn’t look over.
“Hey,” he answers.
“So, uh, it’s almost time, right? Starting to catch a whiff of it, I think.”
Izzy sighs long and slow. “Yeah,” he answers, nerves clear in his voice.
“So, Lucius, he seems like a good alpha. Think you could trust him with it?” he asks, voice low.
Izzy turns to face Ed, blinking at him. He should’ve seen it coming. He remembers Ed asking him what he thought of the boy, if he found him attractive. At the time he’d been confused as to Ed’s intentions, answering uncertainly until it seemed Ed was pleased that he did have a certain attraction to the younger alpha. He does. But they’re talking about Izzy’s heat. He’s not sure why Lucius matters when the alpha whose bonding mark is on his neck is two feet in front of him. Part of him wonders if it’s a test.
“Lucius…” He repeats. He takes in a breath. “You said…”
“I know what I said.” Ed’s voice is suddenly cold and Izzy feels it wash over him like freezing water. He looks down, slumps his shoulders, and Ed swallows. “That’s why I think this is best, Iz. I don’t—That wasn’t…I’m trying to un-say it, now.”

When Stede disappears, Izzy is left unsure of himself. The situation forces certain other things to the surface.
This is a sequel to my other fic "Home is Not a Place", which I wrote for Get Izzy Pregnant last time. Go read that!

Summary
After returning to the Revenge and reuniting his crew, Stede tries to move on with Ed. Sure, they aren't soulmates (which definitely doesn't keep Stede up at night), but what they have is real. Stede is even taking steps to improve his pirate skills by training with Izzy, his new first mate. But things quickly grow much more complicated as Stede realizes that there's a lot that he doesn't know about Ed and Izzy...

Summary
Excerpt:
The entire crew was either extremely scared of the former Kraken (Lucius, Frenchie, and Fang) or murderous and on the verge of slicing his throat whenever they were alone with him (Jim, Archie, Pete, Ivan). The rest of the crew (Oluwande, Wee John, Roach) was more impartial, but didn’t hide their disdain for Edward in any way.
"Edward and I are hoping that by spending time one-on-one, the crew get to have a personal apology and see that Edward can be the man the two of us know he can be."Or: the three most powerful men on the Revenge all had their individual mission: Edward wants the crew to forgive him for what he had done to them; Bonnet keeps pestering Izzy to teach him how to be a fucking pirate, and Izzy is here, struggling to teach the crew how to survive. Because in a a bit over a week, they’re going to reach their next port. And Izzy wants to fucking leave.
(This fic takes off at during the events of s2ep5 and takes it from there. Up until this point, canon exists (except for Ivan’s death – he’s alive and kicking in this one!), but let’s see if the upcoming events are going to happen in this story.)
