    Summary

    “Would you like to explain why you’re watching pornography? In your bookshop? During business hours?”

    Aziraphale flaps his hand, typically dismissive of any criticisms of his abysmal business practices. “Did you know I’ve been on this earth for nearly 6 millennia and have never engaged in intercourse before?”

    Crowley grinds his teeth and feels his cheeks heat. What is he supposed to say to that?

    Summary

    Aziraphale knew Crowley liked him. He'd known it with a horrible clarity since around 1100, which was at least a thousand years after the first time he'd thought of kissing Crowley, and some eight hundred and odd before it occurred to him that the specific quality of Crowley's regard could be very dangerous for both of them, if they actually admitted their feelings aloud.

    It was also two weeks since any of that had mattered at all anymore.

    Summary

    “Angel, bloody hell. Hi. You doing okay? Do you have any idea what’s going on?”
    It was quiet for a few seconds.
    “I’m sorry,” Aziraphale said then, still polite, but a bit perplexed. “Who is this?”

    *

    Crowley, upon finding that Aziraphale does not remember him, is very much Not Okay with the changes Adam made after the Apocalypse That Wasn't. He can't do anything but try and make the best out of it, though.

    Summary

    “Port gives the worst hangovers in the world, did you know that?” Crowley slurred when the bottle was all gone. “Don’t know who got credit for that one. Nice drink, lovely drink, shame it makes you want to die in the morning.”

    “Such a shame,” Aziraphale agreed sadly, watching Crowley stretch out on his sofa. He did like port. He liked Crowley stretched out on his sofa, too.

    Summary

    “Do you think I could help in some way?” he asks.

    Ed glances at him. “Like how?” 

    “I don’t know. You seemed to enjoy our little gag of trading places that one time.” Stede shrugs a shoulder. He’s wearing his pink satin waistcoat and matching breeches, no overcoat—too fucking humid tonight. Ed can see the shape of his arm through the thin linen of his shirt. “What if you pretend you’re the one who isn’t in charge, and I can pretend I’m the one who is. That would be fun, wouldn’t it?”

    Sometimes some co-captains invent soft domming to cope.

    Summary

    These days, he has no fucking clue what to call himself, or what to do with himself, or where he and Stede stand. (He and Stede are fucking on the regular but other than that, he has no fucking clue.)

    But he finds rhythms in everything. So he focuses on them. Counts them. Better than going mad, he supposes.


    Or, the post-reunion days aren't that easy for Ed. (Also he's not so sure if he's going by Ed, anymore.)

    Summary

    If there’s a truism in his profession, it’s that fear is a better bet than love. A man fears you, you both know where you stand. Love, though, love’s a right fucker. Steals your footing out from under you, leaves you dizzy and useless as a green-arsed cabin boy on his first day at sea. But he doesn’t want to be thinking about this tonight. That’s why he’s drinking.

    (Four months later, Ed's on a bender in Nassau when Stede finally tracks him down.)

    Summary

    Sailors call them watermarks. A gift from the sea, a name or symbol written on your chest, meant to guide you to your own true love.

    But Stede Bonnet's mark doesn't look like anything at all. Not really. And it certainly doesn't look like 'Edward' or 'Teach' or 'Blackbeard' or a black beard and that's fine. Completely fine.

    Ed's absolutely fine with it.

    Summary

    He can’t do this, Ed thinks wildly; he can’t keep cutting away at Ed’s defenses with the lightest presses of fingers and lips, with words softer than silk and sweeter than honey. He can’t pretend Ed isn’t a terrible, broken thing, ready to shatter at the slightest suggestion and slice open everything around him on the jagged shards. He can’t just fucking love him like this, not after everything he’s done and everything he hasn’t. He can’t, he can’t, he can’t—

    But he does, and Ed is running out of ways to stop him.

    Summary

    Ed’s a retired enforcer for Spanish Jackie that can’t seem to shake his old life. Stede is the heir to Bonnet Group, whose father will do pretty much anything to keep that legacy alive. They meet, as most do, completely by accident and when they need each other the most.

    That’s all to say:
    Ed and Stede get to be happy! After and between some really rough shit, of course.
