    Summary

    Twenty years ago Edward Teach was captured and faced the noose before being offered an the King's Act of Grace. In exchange for ten years of service to the crown he'd be given freedom, all he had to do was join the Aerial Corps and allow his body to be twisted into a machine of war complete with taloned feet and wings. Feared and disdained, he's lived his life in endless battles with no end in sight. What does a monster do? What life is left for him?

    When he injures his wing in battle he finds himself at the doorstep of a man who he's been told can help repair damaged feathers. What he finds is a lunatic living in an airship and promises of something Ed had thought had been lost to him for twenty years.

    Hope. And a future.

    Things do not go as planned.

    Summary

    Over time, Stede had started to wear Ed down. The constant cheer and golden retriever-like enthusiasm were getting to him, even if he still expected a trap around every corner. Besides, Stede really did seem to know his cheesecraft, even if he was wasting all that time and energy on chocolate and fruit. Ed had still refused to try the stuff, of course. But Stede got so excited when he talked about it, his face practically glowing, and Ed had been starting to consider inviting him over for a little dairy-free dessert, when…

    When Izzy fucking Hands happened to both of them.

    Ed had heard of Izzy Hands before, of course. They said he had his fingers in every corner of the cheese market in the country, possibly the whole continent. Ed had even seen him in the pages of Say Cheese magazine. The guy was honestly pretty hot, in a “spread me over a cracker, Daddy, I’ve been bad,” kind of way. Sure, he'd already put over a dozen specialty shops Ed knew out of business, but no one had ever accused Ed of having good taste in men.

    Summary

    When Stede meets a startlingly well-dressed man at an otherwise rather tacky Sexy Santa Night at the bar, he quickly develops one objective: hold this man's attention by any means necessary. Even if it means pretending to be terrible at pool.

    Despite Stede's ruse, Ed might just see him more clearly than anyone ever has before. And Stede might be getting some life-changing Christmas wishes granted tonight that he didn't even know he had.
