    Summary

    “This next bit is important,” Aziraphale said, reaching up and resting a gentle fingertip against Crowley’s sunglasses. “I would like to look into your eyes while I say it. May I?”

    Crowley gave a shrug and made a noise that wandered somewhere in the direction of noncommittal.

    “No is a perfectly acceptable answer,” Aziraphale said gently, pulling his hand back and still looking so keenly happy, like maybe Crowley was the thing he liked looking at most in the entire world.

    Or maybe that was just what Crowley hoped for because that’s how he felt when he looked at Aziraphale. “Yes,” he said gruffly, because he didn’t have to hide anymore, and the angel deserved to see him sometimes.

    Summary

    “You think he came here and saw me and left?” Stede squeaks. Somehow, in all of his overthinking, this hadn’t occurred to him, and his stomach sinks all over again.

    Or, after being stood up (the latest in a series of increasingly terrible dating app dates) Stede meets a kind, hot stranger at the table next to him.

    Summary

    Ed loves Stede, he knows that. He loves his soft words and his flowers and his silly nightgowns and everything about him. But he can’t find the words. How do you tell your boyfriend you love him without telling him? With a big romantic gesture, of course.

    Summary

    “Look at that,” Stede said softly, and Ed did. He looked down at the scrap of silk he’d carried in his pocket for the last twenty-some years, and how it was now folded neatly into a pocket square, probably the way it was always meant to be.
     
    “You wear fine things well,” Stede said, looking at Ed as if supremely pleased with himself, and he was beautiful, so fucking beautiful in the moonlight.

    He let out a little huff of a laugh, all he felt capable of, while his mind battered him like waves on the side of the ship. Nothing in his life, not one fucking thing, had ever prepared him for this moment. Nothing had ever been soft. He’d been chasing treasure for his entire existence, and he really, honestly thought that, fuck it all, he might have found it. The softness, the fine thing he’d been hunting his whole life, might be standing in front of him right now.

    And Ed had always been a greedy bastard. He wanted more of it, all of it.

    So without allowing himself a moment to think, he leaned forward and caught Stede Bonnet’s mouth in a kiss.

     
    An AU in which Ed actually lands that kiss, and the story of what happens after.
