Summary
Young Stede Bonnet is forced to marry a stranger and looks for a way to escape. Edward Teach has already escaped one hell and traded it for another on board of Hornigold's ship. But a meeting at the right time might give them both a chance to find something better in each other.
A look at Ed and Stede if they had met earlier in their lives. Still found ways to bring in the plot of season 1, though. ;)
Updates on Sundays.

Summary
"Stede can't believe he's identifying with Izzy, who is attempting to disappear into the shadows. The man seems to sense this uneasy camaraderie, and, in a rare feat, actually glances over at Stede and grimaces. It's not a Fuck You Stede Bonnet grimace, it's more of a Can You Believe This Shit sort of thing.
Stede, for his part, leans in and whispers, "Is it always like this?"
Izzy nods, grimly, "Bloody pissing contest every time."
Or, four pirates walk into a bar.
Sam Bellamy brings out the worst in Edward Teach, and vice versa. Izzy has no idea he's in the middle of the world's ugliest love triangle. It isn't even a triangle. Sam doesn't love him, and he doesn't love Sam. Izzy loves Ed, and Ed loves him, but that's not a good thing. Stede has only the barest idea of what's going on, but he's joining the triangle anyway.
They talk it out, with varying degrees of success."

Summary
Diverging from episode 1x08, where Jack manipulates Ed into leaving the Revenge.
This time, he uses a different confrontation: manipulation. He knows Ed and Izzy better than anyone else, so when Izzy comes to him without Ed, he knows that something is wrong. His veneer might be fake, but his anger (towards Ed) is very, very real.
Or: Jack thinks Izzy deserves better.

He'd rather be known for his sword skills, but...he's not about to waste his God given talents when they are useful.

Ed imagines he’d be proficient at village life, if not a little hesitant to hold an infant.
Ed’s never done it, not a live one anyway.
Has Izzy? he wonders, sadly, Will he?’

Summary
His earliest memories are of cold. They were always cold and damp in the belly of the ship bound for Antigua, crammed in with other poor souls who had their sentences commuted to Transportation to the colonies. He remembers clinging to his mother’s skirts, his stomach roiling with the waves but long since empty, listening to her hushed attempts to calm his sister in her arms. He shivered, and slept, and pretended not to hear his mother’s quiet crying.
How did Ed and Izzy meet? Where did Izzy's ring come from? What's to stop Jim from killing Blackbeard outright? And how will Izzy cope with the Kraken now that he has gotten more than he bargained for? Take a deep dive into Izzy's backstory, his relationship with Edward, and the fallout from the events of season 1. -
