    Summary

    When Stede meets a startlingly well-dressed man at an otherwise rather tacky Sexy Santa Night at the bar, he quickly develops one objective: hold this man's attention by any means necessary. Even if it means pretending to be terrible at pool.

    Despite Stede's ruse, Ed might just see him more clearly than anyone ever has before. And Stede might be getting some life-changing Christmas wishes granted tonight that he didn't even know he had.

    Summary

    This is a story about Stede's interest in plants. Even on the high seas, he wants to collect more.

    This is also about Blackbeard doing what is, historically speaking, considered the boldest move in the Golden Age of Piracy: The Charles Town Blockade. Turns out it was an act of love.

    Summary

    They're in love, they've retired, and they're surprisingly good at home renovations. But when word reaches Ed and Stede that their old crew is in trouble, there's no choice but for these co-captains to head back to sea, accompanied by a magic seagull and an old first mate apparently too contrary even to stay dead.

    The English navy wants to rule the seas, piracy is under threat and Ricky Banes has it in for the crew of the Revenge. It's time for one last fuckery to save their family - but this time might just mean the end of Blackbeard and the Gentleman Pirate.

    (A possible season 3, featuring romance that's tender as hell; trauma and the healing thereof; dickheads getting shot, stabbed and conned in the name of love; more seagulls than you'd expect; and the wonderful truth that it's never too late to find a place to belong.)

    Summary

    Hi, big brother. So, you're usually home by this time, but I'll assume that you're out enjoying that wild Cameroon nightlife - and by that I mean the nightly Cameroon wildlife. Get it? Because you're in Africa.
