Summary
Edward "Blackbeard" Teach has been a writer for decades, and what had once been thrilling and edgy as he specialized in underground erotic short stories that fixated on BDSM, kink and exploration has become little more than a grind. And not a fun one. Living mostly anonymously through his pen name, he's had enough of a career he started out of a desire to express himself and is looking for something more.
A chance recognition in a tea shop brings him eye to eye with Stede Bonnet, a man that found himself in the pages of a book that Ed had viewed as a dead dream.

Summary
A modern AU in which Ed is a glassblower, because glassblowing is sexy. Ed/Stede medium burn, E rating applies from chapter 4 onwards.
Stede's life is boring, flat, made up of things he didn't choose for himself. He commissions some glass art from Ed as an anniversary gift for Mary, and Stede starts to learn what it is like to want things for himself.
---
“Hey, it’s blond guy!”
“Uh,” Stede looks up to see leather and purple and strikingly tumbling hair. “Hi. Stede Bonnet. Blond guy?”
“Yeah man, I’ve seen you in the shop, I call you Blond Guy in my head. Good to have a proper name for you, Stede. I’m Ed.”

Summary
When Ed gets stuck behind the same slow driver for a long stretch of his road trip through the Pacific Northwest, that's one thing. When he finds himself at the same rest stop as the offending driver, it's quite another.
This Stede guy is a bit of a lunatic. But when Ed crosses paths with him again several days later, this time stranded on the side of the highway and in need of some assistance, Ed winds up on a slightly different road trip than the one he'd planned to take—with a man he absolutely doesn't plan to fall in love with.
Clearly, plans change.

Summary
New York City firefighter, Ed Teach, responds to a call one night and walks into a nightmare.
or
“Smoke’s too thick—gotta vent floor four,” Ed’s shoulder squawks.
Fuuuuck.
“Negative—disregard. Floor three isn’t stable. Repeat: do not vent!” Ed shouts into his receiver.
Crackling static comes back to him and a thick wave of smoke rolls down to surround Ed. The guys on the ground can’t fucking hear him and they’re both going to fucking die now. Fuck!
