    Summary

    Stede Bonnet is 18 and about to start college. His entire life is mapped out for him - first college, then working for his father at BonnetCorp, then marriage to Mary Allamby - and that's the way he likes it.

    Ed Teach is also 18 and about to start college as well. He's got plans for his life, and those plans don't include romance. He's ambitious and a bit of a hound, and that's the way HE likes it.

    Two worlds are about to collide.

    An "Our Flag Means Pride" Fundraiser commission fic. The title comes from the song "Impossible" from Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella, for reasons that will become clear!

    Ed blinks awake, the sun warm on his skin, his skin warm from the press of Stede along his side. It’s going to be a lovely day.

    Summary

    Our saltwater solution reduces gravity’s pull by over 80%, ensuring you'll effortlessly stay afloat! We keep the water at a steady 36 degrees—matching your skin’s temperature. This blend of weightlessness and warmth blurs the lines between your body and the water, as your nerves can’t tell where you end and the surrounding environment begins.

     

    Weightlessness. Yeah. If anything’s gonna be Ed’s cure-all, it’s gotta be weightlessness, right?

    Ed’s carried around weight for most of his life. He’s tired. His muscles ache. His joints are all ground down to dust.

    Also - the word solution is right there. Which proves it.

    This is it. This is Ed’s solution.

    (Or: Ed's on a wellness journey for his fuckass brain. It's not going great. The guy at the float tank place is being way too nice about it. Please mind the tags!)

    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.
