also for @ofmdwhump.bsky.social day 10 - hidden injury and "i'm sorry"!

king and lionheart
captain_cappy
Summary:
“ — leave me a message, and I’ll probably listen to it at some point. ‘Kay!”

There’s a moment of silence before the beep, and Stede wishes he could stretch it out. He loves Ed so much. So much. It’s just barely dark outside. Ed must be making dinner. Stede asked for pasta, earlier. Distantly, he wonders if the water’s boiling.

Something clarifies in Stede’s mind, slotting into place. He’d hate to ruin Ed’s meal. As the phone sharply beeps, Stede presses down harder on his stomach. 

“Ed, darling,” He starts. He wants to cry. He thinks he might already be. Ed’s the darlingest man who has ever set foot on this earth. “I don’t think I’m going to be home— hmm.” His stomach hurts. “I don’t. I don’t think I’m going to be home in time for supper. I’m sorry. I just might be a little bit late. Sorry. I love you, Ed."

little talks, but stede's POV!

Summary:

    Ed watched as Stede fiddled with the sleeves on his shirt again. He sidled up to him and leant against the ship's railings.

    "You can roll them up, you know. It's a hot day. Everyone else has their shirts off."

who else is up creating something beautiful and destroying it?

archiveofourown.org/works/71303791

(please read the tags first like oh my god)
disasterology

daydreamcrash

Summary:

Once the guilt is stranded ashore, sword jammed through its eye ans pointless shouts lost to the ocean breeze, the silence in its wake makes way for an uncomfortable new truth: it felt good.

(or: Stede develops a murderous streak after getting away with 'killing' Nigel.)

Summary:
“Ed, darling. I don’t think I’m going to be home— hmm. I don’t. I don’t think I’m going to be home in time for supper. I’m sorry. I just might be a little bit late—”

Ed saves the message. He wipes his eyes with the hand he holds his phone with, not wanting to let Mummy see him cry.

“See? He’s perfectly fine," he tells her. She looks up at him with eyes like galaxies. "Just you and me for dinner tonight, though.”

Mummy meows.
