Summary
Sometimes it’s like Stede can read Ed’s thoughts—except for all the times when it’s painfully obvious that he can’t.
Especially the whole, y’know, Ed being in love with him thing.
Ed flicks some ash into the daffodil bed. “Thought you quit.”
“I did.” Stede says, all eyelashes and dimples as he makes a “gimme” motion with two fingers.
Ed sighs and hands over the pack and a lighter. He isn’t present as he does it, not really. He’s thinking about that other life, where Stede takes Ed’s cigarette from his lips without asking.
A modern AU based on Lucy Dacus' album, Forever is a Feeling.

Summary
Ed can set his clock by his period. Has been able to for 30 years.
Except now.
17 days after he let stupid fucking Stede Bonnet come inside of him.
17 days later, and four fucking days late for his period.
He better not be fucking pregnant.
He can't keep it. He totally can't keep it. It'd be insane to fucking keep it.
Except, maybe, if he keeps it... For a little while at least.... He could keep Stede?

Summary
Ed tunes Izzy out, lets him work it out of his system. He jots his New Year’s resolutions on a Post-It, pretending to take notes as Izzy rants.
1.
2.
3. Get out
That evening, Ed finds the Post-It in his coat pocket and sets off along the western end of the orchards, where the old stump fences still mark the property line. It’s bitter cold, and he should have worn thermals, but the burn of the air in his lungs eases the ache in his chest. It’s a clear night, and the stars are brilliant, and maybe this year, something will change.

Summary
It's fine that he's married—until it isn't. So Ed takes off on a train for points west to collect himself, and collect wisdom from some old friends, sending dispatches back home to Ma in the form of pithy postcards he finds along the way.
Basically: sometimes you have to leave just so you can come home again.
