    Summary

    “Your name. I thought you might tell me your name.”

    Brown eyes flicker between Stede’s, and he thinks it might have worked, stall though it may be, until the man’s mouth curls.

    “Nah. Think I like you this way. Something I know that you don’t - guess books aren't everything.” He smiles, truly smiles, and Stede might think him handsome if he weren’t pushing a knife to his throat. Well. Maybe even then.

    Summary

    The thing is, Izzy keeps on going back to Blackbeard's cabin at night and it’s all fine because Blackbeard keeps on letting him in.

    And of course that’s when Stede Bonnet fucking returns.

    Summary

    Izzy looks to Edward, mouth working helplessly.
    “Just let it happen, mate,” Ed suggests.
    “I was
    hoping,” Stede continues, a little irritated by the lack of support, “that you’d let me—and Ed—know if there’s anything we could be doing differently, to make you more comfortable.”

    Summary

    Izzy’s head is pounding.

    His mouth tastes like something diseased has decided to die in it, the sun is way too bright even through his firmly closed eyes, he’s lying in a wet spot of extremely questionable origin and—

    And Stede fucking Bonnet just had to choose this particular, miserable morning to waltz his posh, poncy arse back into Izzy’s life.

    “Oh, I—well, I didn’t—terribly sorry about, uhm—about the interruption, I’ll just—”

    “Will you,” Izzy grinds out, vaguely in the direction of where he thinks Bonnet might be, “shut the fuck up?”

    Bonnet, mercifully, does stop talking.

    “Fucking. Shit, fuck,” comes a groan from behind Izzy, a trembling hand landing on Izzy’s bare shoulder for purchase, “what the fuck.”

    It’s small comfort that Edward sounds about as destroyed as Izzy feels.

    [Three decades of Izzy and Edward, and all the drama that follows them around. Plus a begrudging little bit of Stede.]
