Summary
In his last semester of college, Ed signs up for a clinical research trial to make a little extra cash. His fellow research subject turns out to be an important person from his past, and that's just the first unexpected event of the day.
“You have to touch me again.”
“Why? I can’t–”
“Because I’ll die if you don’t.” Ed knows he looks and sounds insane, but Stede’s not looking too sane either, his face pale and his cock straining against the nylon of his shorts.
“I feel that way too,” Stede says, like he can’t believe what he’s saying, and then Ed’s clumsily stepping over the weight bench, crashing into Stede, almost knocking him over with the force of his embrace. He backs him up against the wall, kissing him ravenously, pressing their bodies together. Stede squirms against him, clutching desperately at Ed's back to pull him in even closer. If Ed cared about anything in the world, he’d worry about Stede clawing a hole in his shirt, but as it is he can’t think of anything but getting every last bit of his body into contact with every bit of Stede’s.

Summary
“Can't believe you’ve got a tattoo for me,” Stede whispers, throat swollen from his silly, besotted tears. “Because of me. That's just–”
And then it's Ed who pulls back, tilting his head in what looks like…confusion?
“Wait,” he says, with an eyebrow raised. “What do you mean, a tattoo because of you?”
Stede pulls back, too.
He is equally confused.
Ed squints at him.
“You said ‘a tattoo',” Ed reiterates, inexplicably emphasising the ‘a’. “I mean. I understand why this one might get a bigger reaction, or whatever. I get it's maybe more meaningful than the others. But–”
“Hang on,” Stede interjects, his brain snagging on ‘this one’. On ‘the others’.
The others?
What does that mean?
(OR: Three months post-innkeepers, and Stede has yet to recognise the significance of several of Ed's tattoos. Fluff & Feels. Two-shot.)

Summary
So there Ed is, in this enormous room all decked out in ivory and gold, surrounded by one-percenters and inherited wealth and fucking caviar. And he sits under a canopy of twinkling crystals, and he plays his mood music, and the room slowly fills.
And the bride and groom are nowhere to be seen.
Ed’s starting to feel more and more like a member of the string quartet playing out the sinking of the fucking Titanic.
(Or: Ed's the harpist at a swanky wedding that's gone south. Stede's got his own problems. A one-night fastburn meet-cute: fluff, humour, eventual smut, and a truly obscene description of caviar)

Summary
“You know I’d be perfectly glad to give you a crack at it, Ed. I’d…it’s always me. And of course, I thoroughly enjoy a…a good round of cards. But if you’d like a turn, I–I think I’d actually rather enjoy giving you the reins for once.”
And why the fuck does his voice sound so pitchy and anxious and tight?
It’s…it’s fucking solitaire.
“Just don’t think I’ll be as good at it as you, love,” Ed murmurs truthfully.
“I think–” Stede confesses quietly. “I think you’d be very good, if you were willing to give it a shot. Methodical. Careful. Gentle.”
Ed frowns. He tilts his head to try and catch Stede’s gaze, but Stede quickly looks away.
“Do you,” Ed begins, hesitant and feeling strangely wrongfooted, like there’s a conversation happening in Stede’s head that he isn’t a part of. “Do you need to be particularly gentle with playing cards?”
(OR: Stede is not talking about solitaire. A post-canon romp about quality time, communication, sex, and being brave enough to ask for the things you want.)
