    Summary

    A Crossover That Nobody Asked For, but I had to do it; these two needed to meet! (You know the saying, "Write the fic you want to read?" - yeah, this is a case of that).

    Summary: Due to his entering an unforeseen Time Travel Portal, Lieutenant George Henry Hodgson (The Terror) happens upon Captain Stede Bonnet (Our Flag Means Death). Stede gives him a tour of his ship, The Revenge, and Roach prepares a meal. The two gentlemen enjoy conversation and each other’s company for a time, but ultimately George must return to his own century.

    Summary

    “I didn’t know where else to go.”
    [...]
    “Tommy.” A shocked gasp, a question unasked. Sergeant Tozer, brow pinched with worry, and golden from the slight glow of candlelight, looks him up and down before he opens de whitewashed door further, a gust of hot air caressing his cheek like a stray ray of sun. “G’wed, lad, you’ll freeze to death out there!”

     

    A year in the life of Thomas Armitage after he moved to a cottage in the South of England on the early days of spring 1850.

    Summary

    John is just beginning to lose hope that he’ll ever get out of this mess when he hears footsteps. Two sets, if he’s not imagining things, though with the amount he’s had to drink he wouldn’t be quite surprised if he was. He feels hot, even with how cold his hands and feet are, his head spinning, and try as he might he cannot seem to extricate himself from the mess of ropes and rigging he’s tangled himself up into.

    Summary

    Peglar grins in his boyish way, brimming with so much optimism, Irving wondered where the shy, studious man he typically shelled himself up as had been tucked away. He could even call it flirtatious. The thought beckons a splash of color to Irving’s cheeks.

    Summary

    John stares down at the paper in front of him, chewing on his eraser. He tries his hardest to ignore the twisting in his stomach — even as it mimics the twists of rope and limbs and curly hair on the page — focusing only on the artistic merit of what he’s drawn. He doesn’t think it counts as vanity to say that he really thinks he’s captured the model’s essence here; his long limbs, the slight curve of his waist, the slack, blissful expression on his face; it’s all there, staring up at him from the paper in crisp graphite.

    And yet, John would be the first to admit he’s out of his depth here tonight. It’s only been within the last year that he’s even allowed himself to admit his attraction to men at all, let alone try to actually do anything about it. This figure drawing session had been an attempt at tiptoeing into a new world of sex positivity, a safe environment to surround himself with people who were more comfortable with themselves than he was.

    That was, of course, when he had assumed the models would be women.
