Summary
"And don't get me started on that fucking cable car," Jeffrey growled. "I can't believe no one warned us about it. Thought we would fall straight to our deaths there."
Ben shuddered. "Don't say stuff like that. I read this big news article about two sisters who got lost on this mountain, years ago." He spread his hands, and Hank and Jeffrey leaned closer. "They probably fell into the mines surrounding the place. But I don't know, no one found the bodies, and apparently there had been this creepy guy stalking the place after–"
Okay, Hank stopped listening right there. He'd much rather watch through the round window of the kitchen door, back to where Connor was chatting to a coworker on the couch. He hummed when Jeffrey commented on something Ben said, still focused on Connor. Fuck, he'd never ever get through this weekend like this. It was torture to pretend like he didn't want to lock himself in a room with Connor and not step outside until they were going home.

Summary
“Did you do it, sire?” the servant asked.
The old woman turned out to not be an old woman at all. Before her servant's eyes, she transformed into a grown man, pale eyed and regal, with a self satisfied smile on his chiseled face.
"Where did you send them?" she asked quietly.
The man rolled his shoulders and fixed the cuffs of his deep purple robe.
"To a place where there are no Happily Ever Afters"

Summary
"I get what you're saying, okay?" Hank glances at Connor, "And yes, if we were about to play honeymooners for an *entire week*, I might agree that we should play it up. But for this?" He gestures towards the hotel with a lazy wave of his hand. "We're just gonna pretend to look for a wedding venue and honeymoon suite. They don’t know us, they don’t care if we hate each other, as long as we spend all our fucking money."

Summary
“I was hoping you’d know where that bastard was.”
“Who?” Stede asks like a fool.
Bonny’s face is absolutely terrifying when it’s lit up by the candles in the room, and she leans forward, closer to him.
“The Gentleman fucking pirate. Stede Bonnet.”
His entire body tenses, and he knows his crew well enough to know their tells for when they’re equally as nervous. Clenching one hand beneath the table, Stede smiles. “Ah. I’ve heard of him before. Caused you some trouble, has he?”
---
AKA Stede is doing his best to get his bearings together and reunite with Ed. As one might have guessed, things don't go as planned. -

Summary
Stede could have sworn that he had made it all up - the monsters in the dark, the black pair of eyes staring into his whenever he closed his eyes. After twenty years in L.A he could at least pretend that it had all been some strange response to childhood trauma.
Then his father had to die.
--
While back in his old family home with the intention of cleaning it out for sale, Stede finds out more about his father's past - and himself - than he had bargained for.
At least he finds a kindred spirit in Edward Teach, a worldwide best selling author on the lookout for some inspiration.

Summary
"Oh! You're from the Octopuses scouts? I’m Stede Bonnet, of the Woodpecker club!" The man named Stede shoves his open hand out to Izzy, who looks at him like he just shat in it.
Ed steps forward. "Yup. The Octopuses. That’s us," he says smoothly, ignoring Izzy’s displeased growl.
Stede grins, wide and brilliant. "I uh, don’t suppose you're here for the… The hike? Actually I’m supposed to be meeting with my colleague, but he hasn’t shown up yet and I fear he might be quite delayed."
---
Stede Bonnet is on his very first overnight hike as a scout leader when he happens upon four leather clad bikers seated right in his camping spot. Ed is bored and looking for something to catch his interest. Lucky him that this something shows up in the middle of the woods.
