Narration only version.

But then Ed was struck with a truly ingenious idea.  “Hey,” he said, nudging Stede until he tilted his head up enough to look back at him.  “I mean.  Y’know.  We could.”  He gestured between the two of them.  “If you wanted.”

It took Stede a second to catch on, but as soon as he did, his eyes went wide.  “You mean… pretend to be a couple?”

A Spaced inspired fic for TV AU week, in which our heroes hatch up a fake relationship fuckery.

Note from boy: Because I am a huge Spaced fan (I refer you to my username happydaiz) I put some Spaced music in this. If you want a version without music, you can find it here https://on.soundcloud.com/eNhSzycrLzw9RtZHkH

“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.

Long story short (it was the wrong guy)

Stede sees him across the bar

Ed jerks his head in the direction of the couch in the nearby waiting nook, and prepares himself for impending disaster.

The impending disaster follows. Eagerly.

“I’ve organized everything chronologically,” he says, setting the overstuffed briefcase down and thumbing through some of the piles. “But I can, of course, rearrange the presentation order based on your personal preferences! Alphabetically? Most-to-least amusing? Oh! Or a mystery draw - just pick a random folder without looking! That could be fun, couldn’t it?”

Somewhere, deep in Ed’s soul, a very tiny, very tired voice goes: there is something deeply wrong with you as a man, Ed. You’re into this. Don’t even try to fucking deny it.

(Or: Stede Bonnet is getting his first tattoo. Maybe. If Ed is able to rifle through Stede's entire briefcase of ideas and pro/con lists and flow charts and excel spreadsheets, and figure out what he actually wants. Which might take some time. A Reverse Big Bang 2025 fic with art by bbyteach!)
