On one of the crew's visits to go see Stede and Ed in retirement, Izzy and Ed go out for a night out together, just the two of them. Unfortunately, three thugs recognize them and decide to kidnap them. They both get hurt, but the two of them are in a better place than they used to be, and take care of each other until they can get out of there.

Two Weeks
by @chocolatepot for TheQueenHasNoLife
They've locked him in a room. It’s definitely better than a dungeon, not that Stede's ever been in a real dungeon, but it's still very bare: a straw-filled mattress on the floor, a chair by the window, and a chamberpot. Stede is captured by Prince Ricky, and things look grim. Will he be rescued? (Yes.)

Homes on Distant Moons
by @kingstoken for @shuushuushuu
“Hey, Izzy” the bartender said, breaking Ed’s contemplation for a moment, but there must be hundreds of people with that name. “You’re in early this week.” “It’s been a long fucking day. Give me some of the green stuff.” Ed would know that gruff tone anywhere. He looked over to the bar and saw Israel fucking Hands. On a moon on the edge of the Galaxy Ed runs into Izzy.

A Threefold Cord
by the_alchemist for @kingstoken
What will it take to make Izzy and Stede bond with one another, and eventually reach a Steddyhands equilibrium? How about putting them in a cell together and subjecting them to torture? Izzy doesn’t need to *like* Bonnet to be protective of him, or to give him some tips for enduring what he’s about to face. Comforting him afterwards is almost obligatory, even if Izzy does decide to do more than is strictly necessary. And when the tables are turned, and Izzy’s the one needing comfort, Bonnet turns out to be almost competent, almost brave, almost … likeable? Once they’re safe and back on the Revenge, Ed is disconcerted by their new closeness. Izzy is the darkness he has left behind, so why does Stede insist on seeing him as a human who can grow and change?

so where do we begin?
by @billie-dawns for @denizbevan
The figurines catch Stede's eye, halfway down the hall to his- their cabin. They're propped up together, side-by-side, next to his mini-Revenge. He picks both the two little figures up, pinches them between his pointer and thumb in each hand. His brow furrows as he raises them up to his face, examining one of them. A tiny blond groom stares back at him.

Trying For More
by TheQueenHasNoLife for @halfeatenmoon
Ed has been thinking about some things, which is not always a good thing, especially with everything that's happened when the only person he can ask for advice is Lucius.

The works have been revealed! (Due to an AO3 glitch, they were also deanonymized for a while ... but I have managed to undo that.)
Go forth and read!

Fics are due!
Hello, friends! The deadline was this past weekend, and there's still a few fics not submitted. I'll be sending out emails to those writers shortly as an extra reminder, but if you really don't see yourself being able to get yours in, please let me know you need to default.
i've never done a gift exchange before!! are the tags i choose for requests/offers tags that must go together for the final fics? or is it more of an umbrella, and the author picks and chooses from the list of tags when writing?
So basically: the tags for each request go only with the ships in that request.
Say your requests are:
Request 1: Ed/Stede and Jim/Olu in the ships field, and hurt/comfort, domestic fluff, and past trauma in the tags field
Request 2: Anne Bonny/Mary Read in the ships field, and modern setting AU, fluff, and BDSM in the tags field
These tags go specifically with these ships. You might be matched with someone who's agreed to write an Anne/Mary modern AU, Jim/Olu domestic fluff, or Ed/Stede hurt/comfort. You will not be matched with someone who's offered only Ed/Stede modern AU.
Matching is also done with only one ship and one tag, and if you match on multiple, you get to choose which to write. If you want to include more of the tags or ships, you totally can, regardless of whether you matched on them or not! But you must include at least one ship/tag where you matched.
Does that help?
Okay, friends! Signups are open for the exchange!
You can check out the tagset from there, while you do your signup, or you can browse it here for inspiration while you prepare.
They will close on Friday, October 18th, at midnight GMT.
The tagset for this year's exchange is open, and will be until Friday, October 4 at 11:59PM GMT/6:59PM EST!
Go ahead and nominate! (If this link doesn't work for you, please use the previous one and click the "nominate" button at the top of the page.)
I'll be writing up new schedule etc. pages and sprucing everything up for the new round later this week, but I wanted to get the noms open asap! Here's the schedule on the 2024 exchange's AO3 page, though.
Can someone explain what this is like I don't know anything at all? Thanks 💚💚💚
Here's the really really basic version!
Nominate ships and tags that you might want to read or write about.
Tags can be kinks (bondage, impact play, etc.), vibes (fluff, hurt/comfort, angst), settings (modern AU, Regency AU), tropes (only one bed, fake dating), and other concepts (dealing with abuse, explicit sex, pining).
Once the nominations are done in October, sign up for the exchange with what you're willing to write and what you want someone to write for you, which you'll indicate with the tags.
AO3 will match you to a writer who can write what you requested, and to a recipient who wants to read what you're willing to write.
