    Summary

    It started as something casual. It isn't anymore.

    If only either of them could admit that.

    Summary

    Stede Bonnet's love life is completely non-existent and an utter tragedy to behold - At least, according to those closest in his life.

    Thus they're compelled to do what any group comprised of an ex-wife, co-workers turned friends through sheer proximity, and assorted significant others of aforementioned co-workers turned friends would do: Set up five blind dates that Stede Bonnet has no choice but to go on.

    Stede keeps on showing up ridiculously early to these dates, but at least the bartender is friendly.

    Summary

    “I just meant— your bed,” Ed tries to amend. “You made it up for me. Us, I mean.” He motions with the hand he’s not winding up with Stede’s. “Two pillows.”

    Stede’s heart launches into his throat, because he’d actually entirely forgotten that point. He’d made the bed himself this way since returning to the ship; it hasn’t been long, but— Ed’s been here. He’s had hope the entire time, even if he wasn’t verbalizing it.

    Well. Wasn’t always verbalizing it.

    “You made it up for both of us,” Ed comments into Stede’s semi-panicked quiet. “How’d you know I’d say yes?”

    The truth comes so easily. With Ed, now, it feels like everything hard is easy, even if it’s still hard. “I didn’t.” He repeats, a bit firmer, “I didn’t know.”

    Ed’s fingers, tangled with his, squeeze.

    Summary

    When Stede's holiday plans keep getting canceled, his new office crush offers to let him come and spend the holidays with him and his family. Which will definitely be totally fine and normal, two adult men who certainly don't have feelings for each other, staying in one's childhood home, when they've interacted roughly three times before. Not unusual at all.
