    Summary

    Stede didn't get to choose a lot in life. He has to work for his father's company, but he gets to choose in what way (for the most part), he had to get married to a woman and have the traditional 2 kids, but he gets to choose the ways in which they are a not-so-typical family.

    He's done fine just sliding by, making lemons into lemonade, until something snaps — big things are coming his way whether he likes it or not.

    Summary

    Ever since their chance meeting thanks to an impulsively booked trip to Finland, Ed and Stede have never been happier. Some people might think that they went too fast, with Stede moving to Finland to be with Ed and the two of them getting engaged after knowing each other less than a month, but they're far past listening to what anyone else tells them to do. They know they're soulmates, and they have a home and a happily married life together and are still going strong a year and a half after they first met in a snowstorm rescue.

    But married life presents its own new set of challenges, things that Ed and Stede have never navigated before. Up until meeting, they were both used to being alone, and as they grow and learn now both as individuals and as a couple, they discover that life doesn't stop after the happily ever after.

    Summary

    Prince Stede of Bonnet is en route to be married to the King of Low when his ship is overtaken by pirates. Stede offers himself up to the Dread Pirate Blackbeard in exchange for freeing the rest of his people. He does not expect Blackbeard to propose marriage as a part of their agreement, but if it is a choice between the kind of monster Ned is and the kind of monster Blackbeard is, that is an exceedingly easy choice to make.

    Summary

    Ed, his tentacled and half-transformed thumb still running over the egg beneath the water, almost mindless in his gentle and soothing care for it even in this unfertilized state, surveys Stede for a long moment where he seems like he’s just thinking. He does that, his Ed; he turns thoughts over in his head like a rotisserie until he can see every side. It’s part of what makes his tactical mind so brilliant, in Stede’s opinion.

    “I wonder what’ll happen,” Ed murmurs, turning Stede’s egg over and over in his hand like the rotating thoughts in his mind, seeing all sides. “Can we even have a baby, d’you think? The two of us?”

    A couple of monsters, he means. Stede knows that, and he hesitates before he answers, “Well. We’ll never know if we don’t try, will we?”

    “Suppose not,” Ed agrees. “We’ll just have to try it, then. Nothing else for it.”
