    Summary

    The first time he fucks Stede Bonnet, Edward Teach is sure of three things:

    Stede Bonnet’s mouth tastes both warm like brandy, and sweet like the flesh of an orange.
    Stede Bonnet’s skin smells like fresh air, and sun, and the good type of dirt.
    Stede Bonnet is going to be the greatest, most wonderful mistake of Ed’s life.

     

    or: Ed and Stede enter into a co-captains with benefits arrangement. It stays about as platonic as you'd expect.

    Summary

    Stede finds the house. When he comes back to their room at the inn, he won’t rest—won’t let Ed rest—until Ed’s seen it. His eyes are bright in that way that makes Ed’s guts feel scooped out with a spoon. So Ed hurries into his boots and goes with him.

    The once-white paint is stripped by weather and wear, a portion of the roof is caved in, and the spokes of the wraparound porch are all gnawed through by animals.

    Ed gazes up at the broken windows and the birds that have built nests there. At his side, Stede is waiting, rocking back and forth on his heels.

    "It’s perfect," says Ed.

    ***

    Or: Ed and Stede leave the island together, and they don’t look back.

    Summary

    “Fuck off, shut up. What I mean is—I want it to look right, you know?” He looks at his hands, his feet, then over at Taika where he’s folded up in the chair from Hell like fucking origami. He looks at him, and for a split second Taika can see someone else behind his eyes.

    Ah, Taika thinks. Yeah, that does kind of make sense.
