Stede sits down to read his nightly bedtime story to the crew of the Revenge, only to discover that Lucius has saddled him with a particularly trashy novel in which a gentleman and a pirate begin a hot and heavy romance. Ed has been on board for several weeks, and everyone is sick of the slow burn and apparently ready to shove them down the path to a real romance by whatever means they can.
As Stede reads (and tries to work out who the author of the story might be), they'll bicker their way through romance tropes, story structures, and what it means to have a happy ending. And if by the end of this night Edward Teach isn't in Stede Bonnet's bed, Lucius will probably have to eat his match-making hat...
Caught in the whirlwind of a year-long renovation, Ed and Stede are on the brink of unveiling their new inn. With the finishing touches underway, a menacing storm brews on the horizon. While battening down the hatches, they're interrupted by two posh stragglers seeking refuge. However these stragglers aren't just any guests, they're familiar faces. As the storm rages outside, new connections are forged within.

Due to a particularly nasty storm, Mary and Doug must stay the night at the Unicorn Inn, unaware of just who exactly is running it.
“MARY?!”, Ed’s partner yelled in return.
Mary, he had said.
Ed’s entire body froze on the spot, and he felt ill, and he couldn't turn around, he couldn't look, but at the same time, he needed to know. He tried to turn to them, but it's like he had been crucified to the wall.
“Oh my God! Stede!”, the woman said loudly – happily. She was happy to see him. Oh no. No no.

Mary and Doug accidently end up on Ed and Stede's inn, and now Ed has to deal with that :) because I enjoy putting them in situations.
