Summary
Izzy's spent years trying to inoculate himself against the kind of performative onstage groping that used to leave him aching for more. You swallow a little of Ed’s poison every show, and eventually, you're immune.

Bookmarker's Notes
What Izzy knows that the blogs and magazines don’t is that Ed hooks up with guys, sometimes. He knows that he’s done this in particular, and maybe that’s why he can’t stop thinking about it.
God, it's like time travel.

Summary
“Shh. Shh.” The hand on Izzy’s shoulder turns to iron, fingers bruising through his jacket. “Relax, mate. You trust me, don’t you?”
Izzy does. He trusts Blackbeard, he has to trust Blackbeard, because the other option is a life where he can trust no one and there’s still a small, sickly part of him that isn’t prepared for that. Blackbeard doesn’t feel fear, but Israel Hands does. Every day of his life, he’s felt fear.
--
Izzy tries to manipulate Blackbeard, and it goes wrong in exactly the way he hopes for.

Bookmarker's Notes
“You’re pent up, boss,” Izzy says instead. “It isn’t healthy for a man to go without certain things for too long. Makes his blood unstable. And I figure you might benefit from something discreet.”
Very discreet. Can’t have tales going around of you going limp and blubbering for your lost boyfriend, can we? Izzy thinks what would really be ideal is a mute, provided he can find one in whatever flavor the captain is in the mood for.
Of course, mutes can also be made. Izzy Hands is nothing if not a problem-solver.
Exactly the fucked-up dynamic I was looking for. And that quote! Is that not some delicious Izzy characterization? Everything from his dialogue to his concerns to his solutions.

Summary
Ed and Stede decide to make a baby. Stede's friend offers to be a surrogate.
“Fuck. Might as well enjoy it, right?” Ed says.
“Right,” Stede agrees, rocking Ed in his arms. Ed hums contentedly, following the sway.
“And who knows?” Ed says. “Maybe you'll like it.”
Stede wrinkles his nose. Memories of being with Mary tunnel back and he mentally bats them away. It's nothing against Mary, of course. Just... no. “And maybe Hell will freeze over,” he deadpans.

Bookmarker's Notes
It hurts Stede to watch the way Ed's gaze lingers on children with their fathers, hand-in-hand at the market. Stede thinks there's quite enough of his own genes out in the world already, but Ed's? Ed deserves that. He deserves to right the wrongs of his own childhood— to pour all of the love he was deprived of into a child of his own.
Whack-a-mole with my bulletproof kinks. Sweet and tugs on the heart a little, too.

Bookmarker's Notes
“I’m a fucking pirate, mate. You know that? Spent the last year stealing shit. We’re going to keep stealing time, okay? We’re going to steal all the time we need.”
The setting is so vivid and the story is so true to the show.

Bookmarker's Notes
The three boys have smiles like gargoyles and Ed revises his earlier assessment: this sleeping boy does not belong to them. They are not of the same species. And Ed isn’t sure what they’re planning on doing with this snake, with this boy, but he’s certain he doesn’t like it.
Something about the way Ed sees Stede doesn't belong with people like the Badmintons!
