Summary
Stede and Ed's relationship ended months ago, but Stede hasn't been able to let it go. He's amazed when Ed agrees to participate in The Ex-House with him, sharing a tiny house on live television for six weeks to win the grand prize.
“Hello, Edward!” he says, forcing brightness. Remembers to look at his face - two seconds at a time is perfectly acceptable, look at the face, not directly into the eyes - tries to remember to turn his lips up into a friendly smile. Behind Ed, the door whooshes closed again and leaves them in silence.
Ed’s fully clad in leather, which is always a good look for him. Slight hint of eyeliner. One arm bare, showing off the winding snake tattooed into his skin. Beard trimmed short. Hair up, as well, properly styled. Small silver dagger earring dangling from one ear.
He looks unapproachably hot. The kind of guy that would skim over Stede without a second glance. The kind of guy that would sniff out Stede’s oddness in a second and push Stede down as a way to lift himself up. There are probably people watching on their televisions right now, wondering how the hell the two people in this room were ever together in the first place.

Summary
For OFMD Aro/Ace Week Day 3: Comfort / “I’ve got you.”
In Stede’s defense, he has never claimed to be an attentive person.
In Stede’s defense, he was trying to follow a specific and very rare moth that had caught his attention and was only looking to observe it anyway, and he wasn’t in the business of capturing wildlife or any other creatures.
In Stede’s defense, it was extremely well-camouflaged and he didn’t notice it until he quite literally stumbled upon it in the brambles.
In Stede’s defense, when one comes across something that pretty and that fascinating, one can’t help but pick it up (gently!) to examine it.
In Stede’s defense, he didn’t know.

When Stede Bonnet accidentally picks up swan-person Edward Teach’s skin, they’re forced to marry to fulfill the bond that that’s trapped swan-folk for time immemorial.
But is it possible they might develop a genuine bond with each other in this forced situation? (I think you all know the answer to that.)

Summary
For OFMD Aro/Ace Week Day 7: Non-sexual intimacy / "This is...nice."
Ed and Stede are friends.
Very good friends, in fact. Such good friends that one wonders if there is a world where they aren’t friends.
Ed and Stede would say there is not.

This is a story of our two boys in a very loving and gentle queerplatonic relationship, inspired by Arnold Lobel’s Frog and Toad books.
