A gold frame floating on a cloudy sky. A red ribbon weaves in and out of the frame. Words float in the middle of the frame: Forever is a feeling, an OFMD AU
Forever is a Feeling rose_quartz_kitten, the_widow_olivia Chapter 2: Agent of chaos, angel of death (Ed) Summary: They haven’t talked about it. And that’s fine, cause if you’re good enough friends, there’s stuff you just don’t need to talk about. Besides, Ed’s made sense of it all on his own. Stede got a little anxious—and who wouldn’t?—and he just sort of poured all that anxiety into Ed. Via his lips. Happens to a lot of straight guys. Probably. Ed has planned the ultimate bachelor party weekend for his best friend Stede. Nothing could derail his perfect plan, right?
Wanna take a break from refreshing your craft fair tabs? I have some brand new E-rated (definitely-just-friends) Gentlebeard over here!

But today, there's something particularly magnetic about Stede in his tailored suit and crisp white shirt. The shiny gold watch that's a tad too big for his wrist. His hair, all slicked down the way he does it when he has to see his parents. It's a style that isn't really him, but he still looks, well, beautiful. 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.
I’ve been sitting with this fic for so long, and it’s coming at the end of the month! There’s gonna be beautiful art by @aliassamm.bsky.social!
Ed’s in love with his straight best friend. And he’s ok, really. He’s just fine!
Based on Lucy Dacus’ Forever is a Feeling.

I haven’t done one of these before, and I absolutely cannot share the snip where the word “serious” comes up 5 times because *spoilers* - so have this little bit of banter from the Forever is a Feeling boys.

Stede lolls his head against the wall and shifts his shoulders so he's facing Ed, and Ed does the same. Ed's dumb brain keeps imagining things-like if someone took a photo from the right angle, it'd look like they were lovers gazing at each other in bed. A brick-y bed, with brick-y pillows. "What're you thinking?" Stede asks, whisper-quiet, as if that isn't the most pillow talk-like question he could possibly ask.
I have been so caught up in craft WIPs that I haven’t shared any writing WIPs! Here’s a bit of the longfic I’m working on, based off of the album Forever is a Feeling by Lucy Dacus.

"Never Left!" Chapter 10, The Revenge on Memory Lane.
A prequel to the show!
Ever wonder how such a motley crew of characters ended up with Stede Bonnet as their captain? Or why his ship was called The Revenge in the first place?
Read on!

Me: I’m going to try writing shorter smut scenes since these are chapters and not oneshots.
Also me: I accidentally wrote 2,950 words for a blowjob. Whoops.
I tried my best 😅

They break out onto a different road, much more well-lit but not too close to the main strip they were originally on. However, Ed does know where they are now, so that’s something. In the distance, Ed spots a large fountain and leads Stede in that direction—for the first time tonight, it’ll be safer to be around other people. About halfway there, they slow to a jog, then a walk. Stede’s breaths come out in ragged bursts, but the smile on his face is brilliant. “Wow! I sure can cross that one off my list,” he says, eyes wide with energy. Ed raises both of his brows. “Your list? Like the ones people make before they die?” Stede nods. “I’ve always wanted to do that.” “Okay, I need more clarification. You’ve always wanted to run from the fucking police ?” “You say that like it’s a bad thing,” Stede says with a light scoff, still grinning. Then he frowns. “Shit. I lost my cigarette.” Ed stares at Stede for a long moment, trying to figure out if he’s being serious. When Stede procures his pack of Luckies and doesn’t continue, Ed laughs, loud and boisterous. “It’s not a good thing, Stede.” Stede hums in thought. “No, I suppose not. But it was exciting, and exciting’s not something I experience on the regular. It was nice.” Ed shakes his head. “Who are you?” The way Stede’s eyes gleam when they meet Ed’s is breathtaking. “I’m Stede, the florist.”
Now that chapter 4 is up, I can post the context for my profile name B) There's more context for the "the" part in chapter 3, but this is the proper line.

(The Crew are on a booze cruise in Boston Harbor, to celebrate Lucius and Pete’s engagement. Ed has just broken up with Jack, and Stede has broken up with Sam. Ed is a morning drive-time deejay known to his fans as Blackbeard.) And there, his hair a golden halo in the strobe lights, his white jeans making his teal dress shirt pop, was Stede. Stede was alight with pure joy, putting an extra little flourish on every clap and step, swinging his hips and arms with abandon. Ed had never seen Stede like this, happy and loose and free, and he couldn’t help grinning at the sight. Just then, the song ended. Stede spotted Ed and made a beeline for him and hugged him, another first. “Ed! Let’s get another drink and then come dance with me!” Stede was a little sweaty, but he smelled good, like vanilla musk, bergamot, and pineapple.
“You’re a fuckin’ lunatic out there, Stede, and I like it! I didn’t know you liked to dance. I’ve never seen you dance at Lucius and Pete’s parties.” They both got Sprites and sat at a high-top table. “That’s because of Sam,” said Stede. “He thought dancing was “too gay”, or maybe he thought I was “too gay.” Ed shook his head, dismayed. “Good riddance, if you don’t my saying so, Stede. He was never good enough for you. You’re perfect the way you are, and you look much happier showing your true colors instead of forcing yourself to be beige.” “Oh, no, did you hear me on the radio a few weeks back, talking to Blackbeard? He said the same thing.” said Stede, blushing. “I thought that guy's name was ‘Stee-eve’.” Ed winked. “I guess you didn’t know that I work at WQAR.”
“Ed! Do you work with Blackbeard?” asked Stede. Ed paused for a moment. “I never thought about it like that, but I guess you could say that.” He sighed. “Have you ever felt like you were treading water, waiting to drown?” Stede nodded. “Yes, Ed, I very much have felt like that. Don’t you like your job? Working with Blackbeard? He’s very mysterious. Is he horrid to work for?” “Oh, no, not at all,” said Ed, “I’m Blackbeard.” Stede’s jaw dropped, and for once, he was silent. “Shhhhh!” said Ed. “I don’t speak with my Kiwi accent when I'm on the air, and I don’t make appearances, because I don’t want fans knowing who I am.” Stede managed to close his mouth and nod. “I’m just so sick of it, though. The fans love Blackbeard’s schtick, the pranks, being a giant jerk, and so on, and that’s not me. It’s a character. But now I’m trapped. People in the biz read my resume and won’t let me do anything different.”
