[podfic] This Could Be Love Ch 5

This is Chapter 4 for “Kalahari Down” by oatmilktruther
Rated: Explicit
Pairing(s): Blackbeard | Edward Teach/Stede Bonnet
Fic Summary: 
"What was coming, he still couldn’t mark beyond the word “trouble” lit up in gold when it came rolling in over the east field that late May before the first licks of the summer he turned 19.
Trouble rolling over the hill and right up to Ed.
Trouble pulling his stetson, loose around his ears like it wasn’t quite fit to him, from his head, down to his chest. Trouble tilting his head to Ed, like Ed was a fine lady, like Ed was anything but a ranch hand perched on a borrowed horse. Trouble asking, soft and sturdy as fresh wheat bread, 'how do you do'?"

This is a complete 1880s-1890s cowboy AU clocking in just under 46k that will update weekly as we work through beta'ing each chapter. This is about finding yourself, finding your home, and finding the person you want to share both with. This is about doubts we have in ourselves and how they poison the rest of our judgments. This is about Edward Teach in leather chaps being the most fuckable rider this side of the Mississippi. This is about how one man can hear one Orville Peck song and turn it into 46k words with absolutely no restraint.

Chapter Summary: And I hate to say I spent it all on masquerades

The Incident at Direfold Manor - Chapter 2

Ed had a crush.

Not just a crush, he was a smitten kitten, he was the human embodiment of heart eyes, his chest felt like it had been stuffed full of fluffy pink cotton candy, he was a fucking goner.

He knew that first day. That first fucking second. Knew his whole world was about to be turned upside down.



Ed is head over ass for the cute blond at his co-working space but hasn't said word one to him. Until one day, he thinks up a brilliant (read: boneheaded) plan to ask him out
