Summary
It’s about as far out of Stede’s comfort zone as he’s ever been.
Which – considering in the last two years he’s moved out of his family home and moved in with his girlfriend and boyfriend, it’s a pretty big statement.
He can’t bear to walk home in one of the outfits Mary had picked out for him, but when he gets back to the house Stede rushes straight into the bedroom.
Izzy and Eddie are both at work, which gives Stede the space to lay each item across the bed sheets, eyeing them up in the new light. They look different in his own home as opposed to Mary’s, more like clothes he could own rather than a borrowed disguise from a loved one.
“What the hell am I doing…” He shakes his head in disbelief, but he’s already feeling the trim of the fabric, marvelling at its softness underneath the pads of his fingertips.
~’*’~
Stede considers his relationship with gender a little more closely.

Summary
Ed swipes their key card in the door of the honeymoon suite, shoves it in, and then whirls on Stede before they can even think about moving.
“I have to carry you in,” Ed says, a statement of fact and a rush of heat. “I carry you over the threshold. It’s my job.”
It’s my job.
That leads Stede into the logical question of, “Well, then, what’s my job?”
Ed cups their chin in his hand, thumb scraping over the bronze hair of the false beard they’re wearing. He directs his newlywed’s head upwards, just a bit, until their eyes meet. Even in the hotel hallway lighting, he’s so perfectly handsome, his dark eyes bright, his love written across every inch of his beautiful face.
“Your job, now,” Ed explains to them, “is to let me take care of you.”

Summary
Andalite scientist Stedeth-Esgarrouth-Bonnetil crash lands in an abandoned construction site, pursued by the vicious Visser Four, a high level leader in the Yeerk invasion of Earth. A small motley crew of humans rescues him, and in return he gives them the power to morph—to turn into animals—so that they can resist the quiet but destructive war being waged on their world.
Ed Teach’s mom went missing a long time ago. He’s worked through it, goes to therapy, owns his bar; while it wasn’t exactly what he expected, life has been pretty good. Still, he was thinking about packing it all in, until he sees a falling star and encounters a blue four-legged alien called Stede.
Their meeting will change everything.

Summary
An ongoing AU where no one is cis and everyone is healing. This is supposed to be post canon if Izzy didn't die and no one left the Revenge.
Can all be read as stand alone, but compliment each other well. Like a nice cheese and a fine wine or whatevs.

Summary
“Bonnet,” Izzy says, loud and clear, and Stede blinks into staring up at him. “Are you with me?”
Stede jerks his head in a nod. His jaw hurts, teeth aching from being clenched together; he tells Izzy, “I want to wait for Ed to get here.”
“I’m not sure you have much of a choice,” Izzy argues. At Stede’s heated glare, he asks, “Well, what the fuck did you two think was going to happen, you coming in like this?”

Summary
Ed was worried sick about the impending conversation, Stede left his wife and began a relationship with two men, one of which was a person Ed no longer wanted to be. And Izzy, he had gone to great lengths to stop being a woman, and to her knowledge had never been in any type of relationship with one. Izzy has always been so devoted, but would this change things? Was he only devoted to Blackbeard? She didn’t know if she could handle losing either of them and had thus pushed this conversation back and back and back until she almost couldn’t take it anymore.

“I want Izzy to pierce my ear,” Stede blurted out one morning while he and Edith were getting dressed for the day. “Do you think he would do that for me?”
“Yeah babe, I know he would,” Edith replied, glancing at Stede in the mirror she was hunched over to apply her eyeliner. “He did all mine ya know.”

Summary
The realization that this is a ghost very suddenly and intensely hits Ed all at once, and he covers his eyes, keeping his space safe. He’s brave enough to peep through his fingers, and sees that the ghost has moved slightly backwards, as if they noticed Ed’s fear.
“Don’t be scared.” He hears. It’s a full voice, not hollow or booming or warbling, like Ed would expect from someone undead. It’s a familiar accent in a kind tone, and Ed’s heart lurches into his throat.
“What are you doing?” He manages to ask them.
The ghost shrugs. “I live here.” They smile— a small, sweet thing.
Ed wants to laugh. He thinks for a moment, and supposes it’s fair. “Me too.”

ed falls head over feet for his ghostly roommate. three months later, they celebrate halloween.

Summary
“Hey, uh, Jim?” Stede asked tentatively, wringing his hands.
“Sí?” they asked over their shoulder while inputting…something into the computer, though Stede had no idea what it was.
“Can I…well, that’s to say, may I ask you something? Can you tell me about something?”
“Sure, what’s up?”
Stede looked around. It was empty, save for Lucius scrolling on his phone at the front desk.
“I have a… gender question?” The words felt foreign in his mouth.
____
Or, Stede comes out as he/they after Jim explains gender euphoria to them.-

Summary
“Like a mermaid. Or a merman. Or a merperson.”
As soon as the words had left Ed’s mouth, they’d slammed into Stede with such force that he couldn’t help smiling. It’s the best he’s felt— ever, maybe, when someone was talking to him, and he doesn’t even have the words for why. Hearing Ed describe him in his vision this way— it really just felt like he saw him. Moreso, even, than the first time Ed met him— Stede felt seen, felt perceived, felt— felt known.
“Wow,” Stede had breathed, and he still remembers the surging bolts of incredible, burning feeling that had coursed through him as he processed it all. Merperson. Person. Just a person. He really couldn’t suppress his smile; it had been years in coming. “How’d I look?”

Summary
“I don’t really think of you as, like, one thing or the other. You’re just Stede to me.”
“Just Stede.” His voice cracks a little. He feels oddly tearful.
Ed sees him. Completely.
“Just Stede. With your fishy merperson tail and your glittery scales alllll the way up here, and your fancy trident and your swishy blond hair.”
“That’s weirdly validating.”
