Summary
Ed should have everything he's ever wanted. He's finally trying to make it out of his life as legendary organized crime boss Blackbeard, but learning who Ed is after decades of being Blackbeard is harder than he'd expected. Meanwhile, Stede should be happy, but after coming out he's felt stuck in a rut, waiting for life to catch up with his dreams. When people from Ed's old life start to catch up with him and Stede accidentally gets involved, they discover that maybe they can help each other find the missing pieces they've been looking for.
A fast-burn where Ed and Stede get married right after they meet, it takes a bit longer for them to realize they've fallen in love, and they learn a lot about themselves along the way.

Summary
It's the late 90s. Stede, a senior in high school, takes a job at a local fast food franchise to earn some cash, hoping to make it out without his father's help. His trainer at work, Ed, wants to escape too. Maybe together they can get somewhere. Anywhere is better.
They'll get out, sure. But they have a whole lot to learn.
Childhood friends to lovers who don't talk about it to strangers to lovers, basically. Some angst, but hopefully balanced.
Thrilled to say this has been podfic'd by Lindie, the best who ever done it. Link here.

Summary
Stede draws his attention back to the head massage, alternating pressure from the kind of bruising that’s enough to knead a migraine away, to gentle, delicate strokes through his hair. He grows almost meditative with it, forcing his eyes away from Ed’s face and simply enjoying the feeling of body heat and cool, damp-silk hair against his palms. Truthfully, he could do this for hours, rather than the usual three-to-five minutes that’s usually afforded to customers when they…
When…
It’s been longer than three-to-five minutes.
A quick glance at the clock reveals it’s been far, far longer than three-to-five minutes.
Stede doesn’t mind, obviously. And Ed doesn’t seem to be about to question it. But the snide little Lucius-like voice in the back of his mind points out that almost twenty fucking minutes is maybe a bit of an overkill.
Stede yanks his hands away from Ed’s hair like it’s covered in bleach.
“Okey-doke!” Stede manages, voice shrill and a little strangled.
From across the salon, the real Lucius snorts.
(OR: Stede's a hair stylist. Ed shows up for an appointment. And shows up. And shows up. And shows up...)

Summary
For their 20th anniversary, Stede had booked a non-refundable vacation to Denmark – with a 3-day trip to visit Alma, who was studying in Glasgow – as a surprise for Mary.
Mary’s anniversary surprise to Stede was ... divorce papers.
And so it was that Stede had found himself in need of a travel partner – or otherwise face the prospect of going on the loneliest trip of his life.
His assistant, Lucius, had told him about a website called Travelbuddi.com where people evidently searched for strangers to travel the world with.

Summary
It’s not even Ed’s fault. It’s such an easy mistake, anyone could have made it. It’s all because he’s not from a state that has real dispensaries, so he’s used to buying from friends and making his own edibles. He’s not a fucking amateur when it comes to weed, alright? It’s just that all of these prepackaged edibles all look the fucking same when they’re from a store, and somehow you have to be sober enough to read the fine print on the packaging that says how many mils per package versus per edible and those are very different measurements when you’re looking at a three digit number.
At least Ed had stopped to read the packet one more time, a second (apparently) 100mg gummy halfway to his mouth.
“Fuck,” he mutters. “Shit. Damn fuck shit.”
Ed gets way too high and gets helped back down by a very nice stranger

Summary
“Supposedly,” Ed mutters, voice dredged in scorn so thick that if the Swede were around to hear it he'd likely be a snivelling mess, “It's more cost effective and easier to transport if we build it ourselves. Apparently so easy that even Swedish children can do it. Oh, don't worry!” he adds, with a derisive, mad little laugh. “He left instructions!”
Ed flicks at the parchment with the back of his hand, and, curiously, Stede opens it to find…
The instructions.
“...He can't write,” Stede says, realisation dawning.
“He can't write.”
(OR: The Swede invents flat pack furniture. Ed isn’t used to failure. Stede is. They get through these trying times together, and maybe have a little sex about it. Heavy on humour, heavy on Big Feelings~)

Summary
Slow, slow, slow. Lips, tongues, teeth. Stede thinks about time, about the Adagio for Strings, how it pulls like taffy over a tempo as slow as a lover’s sleeping breaths. Thinks that slow, for Ed, might be more about tenderness than caution. Thinks about him in the cabin earlier, wondering aloud whether his probation would last a day, or maybe more than one day. He thinks that maybe this is slow for Ed. He snakes his arm around Ed’s waist, draws him closer, presses their bodies together.
“I love you,” he whispers, and Ed presses his forehead to Stede’s.
“Take me to bed,” Ed murmurs, and Stede asks, because he has to.
“Are you sure? You said –”
“Take me to bed slowly,” Ed says, and Stede laughs, kisses his lips, his cheeks, his forehead.

Summary
"You just, what, play-act a scenario you make up? Is that it? What exactly is the purpose? Simply for fun? And, ah, how might one go about bringing such a thing up in conversation with someone, hypothetically speaking? Maybe to gauge their interest, or put the offer on the table, or... or something?"
"God, you poor man," Lucius says after a long pause.
.
Stede Bonnet finds out that sex roleplay is a thing and, well, you know how much that man likes a good dramatic fuckery.
