    Summary

    So there Ed is, in this enormous room all decked out in ivory and gold, surrounded by one-percenters and inherited wealth and fucking caviar. And he sits under a canopy of twinkling crystals, and he plays his mood music, and the room slowly fills.

    And the bride and groom are nowhere to be seen.

    Ed’s starting to feel more and more like a member of the string quartet playing out the sinking of the fucking Titanic.

    (Or: Ed's the harpist at a swanky wedding that's gone south. Stede's got his own problems. A one-night fastburn meet-cute: fluff, humour, eventual smut, and a truly obscene description of caviar)

    Summary

    The Bonnets go down the shore to Cape May, New Jersey during the same week every year. It’s tradition. But this year, everything about the Bonnet family has changed. The kids are off to summer camp, Mary is on a trip with her fiance, Doug, and Stede is newly single with no earthly idea what comes next. He books a room at The Queen Anne B&B — run by mysterious proprietor Blackbeard — and vows to make the best of his vacation alone. Stede’s life is about to change again in ways he could never have expected.

    Summary

    Ed's monthly show lands at a new theater, The Revenge, and the proprietor seems to want something from him. A silly little 5 1 because i always like publishing something on my birthday, and today! is my birthday. thanks for being my pals and reading my stuff and having a fun time with me on the timeline and in the comments! title from this haunting Karen Black song from a 70s b movie I watched recently called The Pyx.

    it all turned out the way i planned it, if i planned it, but i didn't plan it ...

    Summary

    “Are you a manifestation of my subconscious?” Eddie asks, tentatively shuffling closer to the wolf. He sways a little, stage-whispering, “What are you trying to tell me?”

    He knows the pills he took were strong but, well - he didn’t think they were ‘hallucinate a giant dog’ strong.

    (Or, the one where Steve turns into a wolf and befriends Eddie Munson.)
