    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.

    Summary

    For OFMD Aro/Ace Week Day 6: Acceptance / "I never knew!"

    There’s a couple that sets up a tent at their local Pride every year.

    They’re not part of a private or public organization. They’re not trying to sell anything.

    They are there for one reason: spreading pure, unapologetic asexual and aromantic pride.

    This is a kind of sequel to The Hottest Ace at Pride!!

    Summary

    Izzy puts down the shot, brain firing online. Frenchie chuckles, all low and deep against his ear. He turns his head, “You want…?”

    “Mm. And I want you to eat your cake.” Frenchie coos, “It’s a night for indulging.”

    Summary

    Ed didn't have ruts. He didn't mind, he couldn't imagine it being anything other than an infuriating and embarrassing experience. He hadn't really had any partners before, either.

    Ed is an asexual alpha. He's on a road trip with Stede when he goes into heat unexpectedly. He finds out that his best friend isn't as different from him as he may have thought.

    Summary

    For OFMD Aro/Ace Week Day 2: Patience / "Take all the time you need."

    In 1927, Stede Bonnet not only discovers the love of his life, he also discovers his asexuality. A lot of that is due to the help of one aro/ace king by the name of Frenchie.

    Here’s a peek into how that happened.

    This is set within my Prohibition AU, but you could read it on its own if you’d like. I suppose it’s a bit spoilery if you plan on reading the AU at some point, but if you’re not, then it doesn’t matter.

    Summary

    For OFMD Aro/Ace Week 2025 Day 1: Curiosity / "I'm still trying to figure this out."

    Stede thinks he might be in a situationship with his roommate.

    Or like…maybe friends with benefits? Except he’s not entirely sure that they’re proper friends, and he’s pretty sure “benefits” is supposed to mean sex, and he and Ed haven’t had sex.

    They just make out sometimes.

    --

    A lover of twisting allosexual situations, I ask the (not at all) age-old question: What if Stede and Ed were friends with benefits, but they were both ace?

    Summary

    In the orange beams of a slowly setting Sun over an endless horizon, tucked safely away between gently rolling hills and a vast ocean reflecting shades of amber and gold, there’s a small cabin filled with love and promise.

    An innkeepers era post-canon fic in which Stede takes care of Ed, with a focus on non-sexual intimacy.

    Summary

    “Iz told me you were all pally with Steak Knife,” Ed mentions casually after a moment.

    “He was nice to me,” Stede says simply. “And I was sad Zheng killed him. But I didn’t really know him. Didn’t know any of them, in fact.”

    Ed hums thoughtfully, smiling to himself as he attempts to wriggle down the bed to snuggle into Stede’s chest. “Don’t necessarily have to know ‘em to shag ‘em, mate,” he comments lightly.

    He can’t see much more than Stede’s chest hair from this spot, but he can practically see Stede’s expression in the silence that follows. His thoughts are confirmed when he glances upwards; Stede meets Ed’s gaze, frowning with confusion.

    I do.”

    Ed and Stede find another way in which they differ. Ed thinks it’s cool as hell.
