Summary
“Anyway,” he continues, “then Ed — that is, Blackbeard, bent over me and said—”“Do the Blackbeard voice!” Wee John exclaims.
“He does voices?” asks Finn, in an awed whisper.
Wee John scoffs. “Of course he does voices. He’s our captain.”
Well. Stede can hardly disappoint, then. He clears his throat and thinks of Ed’s voice: its lower pitch, roughened with a hint of rasp, the heavier tongue that drags his vowels and thickens his consonants. “The Gentleman Pirate, I presume.”
In which Stede accidentally convinces the pirating world that Gentlebeard (or Blackbonnet or Stedward; there's a poll) is canon, reunites his crew, and gets his boyfriend back.

Summary
Sir Hornigold is dead, leaving behind three squires, an ill-fitting set of armour, a few swords, and a horse that he'd barely broken in.
In his absence, Ed managed to win a tournament with no training, armour that wasn’t his, and a horse he’d never before sat on, let alone ridden. In just a few moments, he’d changed the trajectory of his life in a way he never dared dreamed he could. And he’d proven himself. He’d won. They’d won. He’s holding in his hand more money than he’s ever personally owned in his life, and Ed doesn’t want to use it to get home. He doesn’t want to admit defeat in the only life he’s ever really known.
or: an A Knight's Tale au.

Summary
“Uhhh, can I help you mate?”
Stede stands there, dumbfounded, for way longer than necessary before remembering what he came there for. He puts his angry father face back on.
“Oh, uh, yes! Are you the man who handed out candy dressed as the killer from Scream yesterday?”
“Could be,” the man said, throwing it off nonchalantly, “why do you ask?”
“Well, you scared my kids last night! We were having a perfectly lovely evening trick-or-treating—my first year with them too, and probably my last now!!—when you had to go and frighten the daylights out of them! It was completely uncalled for!”

Summary
While pirates might be more willing to believe in the mythical and fantastical than the average human, Ed still didn’t expect to witness literal proof of magic board his ship and promptly befriend him, let alone learn that the tales his mother used to tell him were all true. At first he thought the gods were playing a joke on him. (Really? The kraken?) But Stede was nothing like what Ed imagined. And he certainly didn’t imagine falling in love.
“Naked,” Ed found it important to point out numbly as the now human-shaped creature worked to stand. His broken brain valiantly attempted to process the fact that the monster straight out of a nightmare had transformed into what could arguably be called a man, complete with soft blond hair sans horns. But he was still far from human. Though he now possessed human-looking skin, dark teal scales still spiraled up and down his body and a stray tentacle waved through the air before retreating into his fucking back what the actual fuck.

“Well you’ve gone and fucked it up now, mate.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Fuckin' beg then, man, it's just ocean for miles.” Ed motions out to the waves, where there is no sign of any sort of ship, their small dinghy pulled far up on the sand. “I told you when the clouds look like seagulls you take fuckin' cover. Goddamn ocean mutinied me.”

Summary
"Does anything about my appearance strike you as familiar Mr. Teach?" Danford asks, as if Ed hadn't just asked a question, moving aside the bowl to sit down on the stool. "Or my name?"
Ed squints at him. "Nah, sorry, mate."
Danford nods, a hand slipping into the pocket of his apron once more.
"That's about what I expected. Not that it would change matters if you had, I just imagine that these proceedings might make more sense to you. Call this...a reckoning if you will."
Or: Before Stede and Ed can reunite after the academy, Ed is captured by a privateer with a personal grudge.

Summary
Ed had thought so many times about this meeting. About what he would say to Stede Bonnet. About all the angry things he would tell him. All the pain he would hurl at Stede.
What he hadn’t expected was the cold look on Stede’s face, or for Stede to draw his sword and hold it out toward Ed.
He definitely hadn’t expected the sheer fury in Stede Bonnet’s voice as he said, voice strong and unwavering, “Edward Teach. Draw your weapon.”
.
Or, Stede and crew retake the Revenge after weeks of chasing it. The boys have some shit to work through. And Ed has a lot of apologizing to do. So does Stede, but he didn't throw anyone overboard or abandon the crew on a deserted islet. So mostly Ed has to apologize.

Summary
Blackbeard is a mystery-- the man behind the legend is a bit more complicated with blood dripping from his hands and state secrets to sell. He's good for nothing, a criminal who pretends he doesn't like fine things, and he's the leader of one of the world's most illustrious crime rings. To make it all worse, he's absolutely bored with all the money and power he holds, only going on raids that actually make him feel something.
When his crew recovers a human trafficking victim on a raid on cargo ship-- another path starts to open up to Blackbeard-- a path he never thought a man like him would get the chance to have. He doesn't deserve it, but there's something about this annoyingly optimistic if not aloof man that irritates and encourages him to maybe try to have the life he actually wants, a life with Stede Bonnet forever in it.
But Stede Bonnet had a life before he was taken and Ed is resolved to get him back to it, if only to make sure Stede is happy. Maybe he's utterly missing the point that Stede has started to make it perfectly clear that he'll only have a happy life if Ed is in it.

Summary
It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that a gentleman who is about to inherit a duchy must be in want of a wife. But Stede Bonnet is no typical gentleman. He has no care for women at all. Still, his father insists that he must choose a bride by the end of the social season, or he will be forced to marry and produce heirs with the bride chosen for him. Disgusted, Stede agrees to try to find a woman he can live with.
But at the first ball of the season, the women are so vapid - and so not male - that he can't bear the thought of marrying any of them. So he runs away from the ball, looking to escape, and finds himself in a pub owned by a gorgeous ex pirate, who retired from the sea due to an injury...
