Summary
There was only one explanation for the disembodied voice— well, two. Either he was talking to a ghost or he’d lost his fucking mind. He also remembered that he was standing there pantsless. He looked down at himself, completely bare and exposed.
Ah, fuck it, he thought.
"Enjoying the show then?"
Another beat.
"You’re very handsome, so…yes," the voice said, slower, more cautious this time. Ed could practically hear the blush in it. "Is that alright?"
...
Ed is a paranormal investigator who co-hosts a popular podcast with his friend and ex, Jack Rackham. Stede is the sexy ghost haunting Ed's hotel room.

Crossing Swords with the Pirate Captain by BookknobsandBroomsticks
Fandoms: Our Flag Means Death (TV)
16 Jan 2025
Tags
Summary
Stede Bonnet is a romance novelist, not that anyone knows it when he's writing under a pseudonym. After all, surely nobody wants to buy a gay romance written by a single, middle-aged man who has spent most of his life married to a woman? But Stede’s latest book and unexpected hit, Crossing Swords with the Pirate Captain, is being turned into a movie and his favourite actor, Ed Teach, has asked to audition for the lead role.
Action hero Ed Teach is sick of the grind and performative masculinity that the action genre, and his agent Izzy, demand. He wants to branch out, he wants to come out and auditioning for the romantic lead in a film about gay pirates feels like the perfect way to do that.

Summary
“Ed?” he said tentatively. “What do you think?”
“Um…”
“Oh god, you’re shaking.”
“Yup. Yeah.” Ed was trembling head to foot. It was a lot of information to process, okay? And it wasn’t just a lot of information. It was potentially life changing information. Stuff that he had long since accepted he would never hear. And it sucked, but he was acclimated to that suckiness. And now here was Stede, throwing him either a lifeline or a fatal blow. He wasn’t sure which one yet.
“Why are you shaking, Ed?”
“Because I’ve been in love with you basically since we met, Stede. And you just said you were attracted to my sweat. I’m having a bit of a moment over here.”
---
Stede discovers what attraction feels like for the first time in his life (hint: it's Ed). Ed has a mini crisis about it, then a major crash out, and then the best sex of his life.

Summary
The sidewalk is a little less even here, built with large slabs of shale rather than the curated concrete of main street. He picks his way towards the park, admiring the older houses built here with stone foundations, and some with shale shingles on the roof.
And then he hears a strange sound, sort of electrical? He thinks?
He walks a little farther down and realizes the sound is echoing out from an old Victorian style townhouse that looks incredibly run down. The beeping continues as he draws closer. Intrigued, Ed pulls up his phone camera and starts recording.
----
Ed finds a strange house blaring Morse code out into the neighborhood. Is pandemic isolation driving him crazy, or is there actually someone sending messages by telegraph in the year 2020?

Summary
Just pixels, far as the eye can see. Pixelly sky and pixelly sea. Pixelly boats to sail on the endless squares of blue. Pixel people regurgitating pixel script to him, over and over and over again.
But Ed’s got an inkling, based on absolutely fuck all, that ‘Stede’ is not one of them. ‘Stede’ doesn’t feel like one of them.
(or: Ed is trapped in a pirate video game. Maybe Stede is too?)

Summary
Edward Teach is a pop star about to embark on his latest tour when he develops vocal nodes. Stede Bonnet is the voice specialist who treats him. Sparks fly.
“Right. And could you please describe your singing voice to me? Or sing something you feel showcases your voice, if you feel comfortable. For my usual clientele, I’d suggest their go-to audition song, but I don’t get the sense that you do much auditioning.”
There’s a long pause during which Stede takes note of the guy’s eyes. Not a literal case note, that would be inappropriate. His eyes are large and brown and expressive, quicksand eyes. Eyes a person could get lost in. Right now, they’re slightly narrowed at Stede. He seems to decide something.
“Listen,” the client says. “I appreciate you not wanting to make it weird, but I promise I’m used to it.”
“Used to it?” Stede asks, and there go the eyes again. Stede has the oddest sense of being taken apart, exposed, like the recurring dream he has of walking through the halls of his secondary school without a single stitch of clothing on, down to the same vague, unsettling sense that it should be more awkward than it is.

Summary
Before I get into the matter at hand, I must apologise for contacting you out of the blue like this. You do not know me, and all rules of etiquette state that correspondence such as this should be saved only for those one knows personally, but I feel this is a worthy exception to the rule.
Stede finds love letters between his wife, Mary, and her lover, Doug, hidden at the back of their wardrobe. Curious, he reads the ones he finds, and uncovers the details of her affair. In many of the letters, Doug has mentioned a man named Ed, whom Stede assumes is Doug’s partner. Eager to do the right thing and protect Ed from his own inevitable heartbreak, Stede writes a letter of his own.
