    Summary

    Damage has been done. Serious damage. Physical, emotional, psychological. The unholy trinity of pain.

    Ed has a great deal of healing to do. Physical, emotional, psychological. And, as much as he hates to admit it, he just can’t do that without at least some contact with the cause of it all: Stede fucking Bonnet.

    As Ed’s scars slowly knit back together, and Stede gets the chance to darn the gaping holes he tore in Ed’s soul, the threads of their lives begin to weave into a skein of something new. Something potentially very fine.

    And, who knows?

    Maybe this time they’ll both be lucky. Maybe this time Stede will stay.

    OR

    A modern AU exploration of the post-Kraken era.

    Summary

    “Wait--is that…?” Lucy tilted her head and squinted at Ed. Bingo.

    Izzy rolled her eyes and Fang shrugged as the young woman took a slurp from the straw of her wine-bottle-sized iced coffee and took another look.

    “Wow, it is her. Wouldn’t have recognized her if there wasn’t that meme of her punching a paparazzi.”

    “Paparazzo,” Izzy corrected.

    “What?”

    “Singular, one guy. Settled out of court,” said Izzy, ever the stickler.

    “The Snoopy t-shirt almost threw me off the scent, looks like kids’ pajamas,” Izzy and Fang exchange a look, as Lucy got that in one, Ed hunted down vintage pjs, “but those are clearly Comme Des Garcons pants and Margiela tabi boots. And not the knockoffs off from Amazon that scuff and peel right away, don’t ask me how I know.”

    Summary

    "Captain, Jim and I were thinking..." [Oluwande started, "w]e can get John to tinker a bit on the LUC105 Bot and say it was the one who accidentally disconnected the gangplank. Faulty wiring and all that."

    "Oh, no, we can't do that to Lucius," Stede said, composure coming easily now that his favorite bot's life was on the line.

    Oluwande sighed.

    Jim looked as if they were contemplating murder.

    "You can't keep giving all the bots human nicknames," they said. "They don't like it."

    "Jim, I don't think that's what we should be focusing on right now," Oluwande told Jim, although he did mumble "Even though it is true," under his breath before turning back to Stede. "The point is, do you want to live?"

    "I think so. Probably. Yes."

    "Okay, because the penalty if you're found guilty of murdering an admiral is death. For a bot? They're going to fix its wiring, reboot it, and return it to our ship. I am sorry to toss LUC105 under the space ship, but you have to agree this is the best possible solution."

    Summary

    Summary

    Stede writes letters to the crew, puts them into bottles, and throws them in the sea. Because of course he does. And while his letters have not (yet) reached the crew of the Revenge they have received a different message regarding a looming threat to their retired captains: Hornigold has turned pirate hunter. And he is on a specific mission to capture his former lieutenant, one Edward Teach.

    Summary

    Later, much later, Stede realizes he can divide his life into two parts, split by that exact moment: when by all rights he should have been dead, gut-stabbed and strung up, and instead the most beautiful man he’d ever seen strolled up to him through fire and smoke and men screaming.

    Re-telling of the story as Stede grapples with his (unknown even to him) feelings for one Edward Teach, aka Blackbeard.

    Summary

    Blackbeard is back with a vengeance, burning through merchant ships like he's aiming for a new record. With a fierce crew made up of old faces and new, he is, to the casual observer, back at the top of his game.

    His crew knows better.

    And late at night, when things are quiet, Ed is left alone to contend with the ghosts of his past, good and bad, while he works to set his eye on a bold new horizon: healing and inner calm.

    Stede Bonnet is dead—and only just beginning to learn more about the new man he is becoming as a result. Who is Captain Thomas Edwards? What manner of pirate is he? And does he have the luck and skill to catch up with the Dread Pirate Blackbeard at last?

    Judging from the shocking effectiveness of his bold new approach to piracy, his chances are looking better every day.

    When their worlds collide once more, will they find they still fit into one another's newly fashioned lives? Only time will tell.

    They’ve a wedding to plan, after all.

    “What a fucking mess,” Stede sighs, rubs his eyes on his wrist. “Do you have any other batshit exes we should be preparing for? I think I could take them, I’m just tired of being surprised by it all.”

    “Nah, no worries,” Ed says, shaking his head. “Any other homicidal father figures?”

    “No, none,” Stede says, smiling grimly.
