Summary
Izzy Hands has slowly rebuilt his life from the rubble left by the Kraken, but one piece has been missing, the answer to what happened to Lucius Spriggs. When Lucius walks into the library Izzy volunteers at, he jumps at the chance to look after him and help him recover, to try and repay for his past sins, even if that means ignoring his growing feelings for Lucius.

Summary
He breaks a finger, on the way down.
Clawing against the planks of the ship, scrambling for a hold in the wood, like he could ever keep himself from hitting the water. All it does is bend and crack. His dominant hand, too – he had already had to relearn how to sketch once, with the addition of a clumsy wooden finger. If he lives, he thinks, numbly, as the Revenge slowly shrinks on the horizon, this is going to be a pain. At least for a little while.
It’s not the first time his survival instincts have come back to bite him in the ass.
Lucius' time in and out of the sea.

Summary
“You’re so tense! Loosen up a bit.”
“I’m fine.”
“No, you’re not,” the scribe gently set the sketchbook on an armchair and positioned himself behind the sofa Izzy was occupying. “May I?” asked Lucius with his hands just above Izzy’s shoulders.
“Whatever.”

Or Lucius helps Izzy unwind in various ways.

Summary
An empty stage. Remnants of life: a net in one corner, floorboards pitted, dark stains spattered over the wall, a sketchbook propped up against the wall. Or not. Maybe it’s just empty.
A YOUNG MAN enters. Uncomfortable.
He takes a trinket from his pocket – a wooden shark toy – and places it down. The position is wrong; he fixes it. Fixes it again. Curses. He’s tried too many times; it will never be right.
He crosses to the wall, curls up against it. Breathes. Counts to ten, uncurls deliberately; a breathing exercise. Shakes out his hands.YOUNG MAN: This is so fucking stupid.
The man who used to be Lucius Spriggs mourns.

Ed realizes that wooden objects make Lucius happy and attempts to whittle him things. It doesn't go as planned.

Summary
“You have got to be fucking with me,” Lucius says when he wakes up in an old, familiar clearing in front of an all-too-familiar wishing well. "I missed this place."
It is so comfortable here. (Too comfortable.) The hold of the Revenge feels like a bad dream.
Here, in this clearing, the air is quiet and still. Nothing can harm him here, where not even his father ever entered the premises.
"Welcome to the end of the world, dickhead," a voice Lucius hasn't heard in three years says. He whirls around to see his little sister, looking the same as she did the day he left her, her braids tucked up under a white lace cap, dressed in a close-bodied gown in a white-and-navy paisley.
(Mel is the very picture of the worst guilt that Lucius has ever experienced, and she is here to send him to his doom.)
"You're gone," Lucius says, the confession squeezing his lungs tighter than drowning did, "I left you behind."
"Well, you’re dying, dipshit,” Mel says, “And you've got a decision to make. Someone had to come ask you what you want."
(AU where Lucius does die down in the trunk in the hold. But as his crew kills a sea god abovedeck, the gravy basket gives him a chance to pull himself back.)

Summary
Has your avoidant attachment style, crippling anxiety, and desire to “not be a bother” ever caused you to go on an intense spiritual journey where you contemplate the very nature of reality? That's what this fic is about.
---
As Stede nervously prepares for a week of alone time with Ed, the crew girds themselves for the prospect of being led by Captain Buttons. But when Stede accidentally drinks too much of a mysterious tea Buttons had prepared for an eclipse ritual, it leads to an intense, spiritual experience. While Stede is incapacitated, the Revenge comes under fire from an enemy vessel and Ed is forced to make a painful, life-altering decision.
----
THIS STORY IS FINISHED at 20,000 words but I'll be periodically adding little epilogues showing the experiences of different crew members as they process/evolve from the events that took place. Think of everything after 20k as dessert :)
-----
I added the names of the POV characters for each epilogue chapter so if you're just eager to read them as standalones (they work really well like that), click on "Chapter Index". -

Wouldn't that be crazy if I was suddenly, like, into Blackbeard? by YAYvid_Jenkins

Summary
After Lucius survives being tossed overboard, Blackbeard confines him to a cage. Imprisoned and raging, Lucius' hatred proves difficult to maintain as he finds himself relating to Blackbeard's depressive episode. It would be problematic for Lucius to develop feelings right now, wouldn't it?
--
Don't worry: Ed/Stede are endgame here, but Lucius facilitates the process with sex for friendship reasons.
--
***If you're just here for the sex, it's Chapter 10.
--
Now that S2 dropped, this is now officially Canon Divergence. What if Lucius was the one to reunite Ed and Stede? Consider this the happier timeline for Lucius. It's still intense. He goes through some stuff. But in the end, Lucius gets all the comfort and happiness he deserves (and the dads end up back together). Also, I'm SUPER proud of the Lucius-Pete reunion in this.
--
THIS FIC IS NOW DONE! Ed/Stede Happy Ending Guaranteed. And Lucius gets all the things! Come for the feelings, stay for the emotional reunions! -

To make up for EVERYTHING Stede and Ed bestow endless pampering on Lucius. He gets his own room and luxurious furnishings. He doesn't have to work anymore. That should be great, right?

Summary
Lucius Spriggs is one of the seconds serving under Stede Bonnet during the Alpha and Omega wars. Wars that were started by Ed and Stede's own tumultuous relationship. (Stede swears he didn't mean to break the mating bond-- honest!). During the war, Lucius is captured by Izzy-- one of Ed's captains. Nothing goes to plan after that-- not even when the war is over and Ed and Stede are about to get married... complete with an unexpected gift to Lucius from the happy couple: one Izzy Hands who is not how Lucius left him.
Can the two of them pick up the pieces together and make a life together like they had once hoped? Or have Stede and Ed pushed Izzy so far that happiness will always be out of reach?
(It's an unhinged life-- Stede and Ed are unhinged, deranged leaders-- but it's wild ride from start to finish).

Title from the Lana Del Rey song.
Lord Israel Hands had his heart broken to the point that he dare not give it away again. Lucius Spriggs is a common whore who is given away to anyone with coin. When they meet during a session of the Hall of Lords, there is a connection there between them that they cannot deny, no matter how much they try.
An exploration of the human condition: how those with broken hearts may yet find healing and those without a proper place to fit may find true belonging.
(Slow burn, historical romance Sprizzy AU with some far in the background GentleBeard).
