    Summary

    Ed's career has stagnated. Ed's everything has stagnated. At thirty, he has no idea who he is or where he wants to go, and maybe it doesn't matter at this stage. Even Stede seems more of a dream then a reality. Can a holiday across Europe with Anne help him find himself? Maybe. But when you're as famous as Ed Teach, the world is never far from your door.

    Izzy is doing as best he can to help keep Ed afloat in an increasingly complicated world. It's hard work, but someone has to do it. And if he doesn't, if he takes one day off, what does that make him? What does he have to contribute? Is it a good idea to stay with Ed at all? Or is there a better opportunity waiting in the wings? He might find out if Bonnet would leave him the fuck alone.

    Summary

    The year is 1717, cell phones exist, and the attack on the Republic of Pirates has failed.

    Friend and foe alike banded together to beat back the English navy, earning themselves another day of freedom. But now, as the Republic finds itself in a unique position between the English and the Spanish, choices must be made about which direction they want to go. Stede Bonnet, somehow, finds himself at the center of an upwelling of hope, and the desire for change that has being brewing in the Republic of Pirates.

    Meanwhile, all is not well aboard the Revenge. In the aftermath of the murder attempt against Edward, no one knows how to even begin to unfuck the dynamics that have entrenched themselves. All the while, a figure from Lucius' past has reappeared, but what he's after is anyone's guess.

    The crew of the Revenge must grapple with the things they have done if they are ever going to find a way forward.

    A socmed action romantic comedy about the choices a community must make, and the mess of trying to make things right.

    Summary

    Stede Bonnet has had some bad ideas in his life, but trying to get a foot in the door of the street racing scene is his worst yet. But a childhood dream is hard to shake. And so, like everything else, he overdoes it immediately. Fortunately, that's exactly what attracts Edward 'Blackbeard' Teach to his presence, who is notorious not just for his driving skills but also for his criminal endeavors. Stede gets a taste of the former and inevitably becomes entangled in the latter. Much to the chagrin of Israel 'Izzy' Hands, who does not endorse Edward's new hobby as a driving instructor. What ensues is a wild ride full of personal realizations, mishandled turns, and the consequences of a man's actions. Just faster and illegal.

    Summary

    Ed is in love with his best friend, Stede Bonnet. But Stede is straight… and married to his other best friend, Mary. To complicate matters, Ed, Stede, and Mary own a boutique inn together in Hawaii. Then there’s the fact that Stede and Mary’s kids call Ed “Uncle.” He’s fucked on all accounts, and doesn’t know how to stop pining for the man he definitely, certainly, without a doubt, (maybe?) can’t have. Will he ever figure out a way to get over Stede Bonnet?

    Summary

    After the 74th Hunger Games, victors Edward Teach and Stede Bonnet are the It Couple of the Capitol. They’ve managed to find something of a balance between the necessary public nature of their relationship and the process of learning how to be together outside of the arena. But with the looming threat of the President unconvinced by their love story, the upcoming Victory Tour and Quarter Quell, as well as the stress of their entire relationship being televised across the country, that precarious balance is about to tip.

    Summary

    Evelyn sat flat at the edge of the water, in sucking sand and little rippling waves and a crab investigating her torn and floating lace. The ship sank. The fucking good for nothing badly built overcharging stinking cock crewed undermanned pissant piloted splinter ridden cracker box up and sank. It was bad pirating, quite unprofessional, that had holed the hull before they could properly board. What really bit her in her well rounded bum was that she could have dealt with pirates, even idiot amateur pirates, if she’d had the chance. But no, their prize passenger had to be gallantly, ineffectively, saved by being flung into a ship’s boat with her small trunk dropped on her legs and a bleeding, flailing sailor on top to row.

    Well, he died.

    Summary

    Ed and Stede are all in, fully embracing their innkeeper era. The crew pitches in with repairs while Izzy's on the mend, and it seems like happiness is on the horizon for them all. But the dream is shattered just as all the pieces of their new lives seem to be falling into place when Stede is abducted by a vengeful Ned Low.

    Urgency forces everyone back onto the Revenge and out to sea far sooner than anyone was prepared for as they race after the Gentleman Pirate. Ed and company race after them and find a twisted trail of 'breadcrumbs' left in Low's wake. Meanwhile, Stede struggles to plot his moves in a game where the rules keep changing—and the stakes have never been higher.

    Summary

    Breaking up had been hard, and Stede had eventually moved just to get away from Ned's late-night visits that resulted in an equal number of threatening letters and conciliatory gifts. And since Stede was setting fire to his life as he knew it, why not go the extra mile and quit his job without having another lined up?

    He had more than enough money to last him a lifetime, but perhaps it hadn’t been the best move for someone so prone to wallowing in their misery like a pig in mud.

    Stede manages to stumble into so much more than just an Adopt-a-Polloza while avoiding his ex

    Summary

    Ned Low deserves to be interesting.

    This is a character design document for a redesigned Ned Low. I adored his concept, but there were some elements which felt thrown in or underused. This iteration of Ned is more suitable for stories with nuance, particularly stories focused on love and romance.

    Within is a full backstory, discussions on how Ned foils some of our beloved characters so well, and commentary on why I chose to keep some elements and discard others.

    This document is freely given to the OFMD fandom to use however they see fit.

    Summary

    The modern world is six months into a zombie apocalypse. Only the nastiest, grittiest, most ruthless people have survived so far, or so Edward thought. Izzy Hands delivers news of a new group that has taken residence in a wealthy community nearby, captained by a posh gentleman who has no business surviving in this new world. Instantly taken by the idea of such a delicate soul somehow making it this far Edward starts a pursuit to learn more about this 'gentle' man and his so-called group of imbeciles. Perhaps Edward will soon find more than another group to raid and wipe off the face of this new world order.

    Summary

    At the bottom of Portman’s garden there was a large tree. There were two trees, a young shak-shak and a venerable mahogany, but only the mahogany had a pirate and a jaguar in it.

    After Stede sails away, the first time. And the second.
    This is from lingering affection for Stede's barber and some others.
    (Parts and people may not make sense without the previous story, "What Makes a Man.") Mostly written before Season 2, so it doesn't gibe with canon.

    Summary

    Izzy can't help the small grin that rises to his face in response to Doug's open amusement. "She said all I needed to do was sit here for a few hours."

    "That's right," Mary calls cheerfully as she strides through the door. She's dressed casually for the afternoon in a simple tan-colored skirt and a white shirt. She finishes pinning her dark brown hair up into a bun high on her head and closes the doors behind her before crossing to join them. "Just sit over there and look pretty for me," she quips to the pirate as she leans in to kiss her lover.

    ---

    In which Izzy finally lets himself be sketched and discovers he has a praise kink. AKA Izzy Hand's Hot Pirate Summer. *Now with plot (tm)!

    On a surprise visit to the Bonnet estate with his captains, Mary and Doug ask Izzy to sit for them for a painting session that turns into a relationship between the three that uncovers some kinks - and some emotions for almost everyone Izzy knows, both new and old.

    Featuring: Oops all bi/pansexuals! Surprise Dom Mary Bonnet! Sweet, slutty mild-mannered Doug! Stede being a jealous b*tch! Edward being an absolute menace! Sprizzy! Ouizzy! Evelyn Higgins being HBIC!
