Summary: Maybe the Pack of the Revenge wasn’t so bad, maybe Izzy could allow himself to be vulnerable around them, at least when he wasn’t working.
Lucius finally gets to add a new subject to his personal sketchbook, The Swede has a heat approaching, Stede plans a dinner that doesn’t at all go the way he and Edward had predicted, and the crew get a vacation. Izzy is actually having a good time, for the most part.
Ed/Izzy, Any/Izzy — Ed gets jealous, possessive, that makes Izzy angry
Sometime post reunion, established Stede/Ed, Izzy is romantically or sexually with someone other than Ed.
Maybe Izzy/Ivan/Fang happened while Stede was gone and Izzy was emotionally vulnerable. Maybe Izzy/Lucius or Izzy/Roach. Maybe Jack turns up again, alive, and Stede throws a fit because he's banned from the ship, and Izzy offers to go "distract" him because Jack's a big ol Izzy simp. Maybe somehow Stede/Izzy is happening. Maybe it's a fling with some unnamed rando we don't care about.
In any case, Edward finds out about Izzy's relationship and goes all out possessive, jealous, you're mine see this x mark on your face, etc.
But Izzy doesn't react as expected, accepting anything from Edward and desperate for his attention. Instead, Izzy is mad as hell about it. Did Ed think about thier relationship or care to ask Izzy's opinion when he was pining over Stede? Has Ed looked twice at him in fucking years? What, so Edward's allowed to move on from the horrible unhealthy thing they became as Blackbeard but Izzy isnt allowed to try and find happiness of his own? Fuck off Ed.
Here he is!! I can finally share the project that I created for the Our Flag Means Death Reverse Bang!!!
This is my Izzy Hands in only assless chaps art so below the cut is the art as well as link to the fic!!
Summary of fic: Five times Stede walks in on Izzy having sex and one time he finally is the one having sex with Izzy.
Fic is NSFW and Art is soft NSFW (there is a butt and bare male chest)
I believe every good First Mate should try seduce their Co-Captain as well as their crew.
The lovely @lamburrito was my Author and they created a lovely 5 and 1 fic that I adore and am happy to share with you all!!
This is the companion piece that I made to go along with the second chapter of the fic as well!!
So if you are like us and believe that Izzy should have a health amount of loving from his crew this is the fic for you!!
The crew decide that if they all kiss Izzy before the New Year, the spell might be broken and he might be less of a dick next year.

Summary: Izzy's Omega care instincts begins to focus on people other than Edward, presenting in away they never had before. Thankfully, they seem to welcome such fussing.
Edward decides it's time for a proper talk with Izzy, only to be delivered an ultimatum of sorts.
Things only get more complicated when Ivan goes into Rut.
Fang and Ivan taking care of their boss. Patching him up after a raid, hugging him tight when he needs it, smacking him about a bit when he gets too antsy. Something mutually beneficial to keep the ship running well.
Fang/Ivan/Izzy — Izzy was the one who had to kill Fang's dog, CW: Pet Death
Blackbeard ordered Fang to kill his dog. Fang couldn't bring himself to do it and resolved to hide the dog and lie to Blackbeard about having killed it. Blackbeard discovers the lie, and as punishment, orders Izzy to kill the dog while Fang watches.
Established Fang/Ivan/Izzy, with Blackbeard knowing that the three are a throuple and hoping that the emotional devastation of not only losing a pet, but having to watch one of his lovers kill it, will serve to deter Fang from lying to him in the future.
Fang is devastated at the loss of his dog, but Izzy is absolutely traumatized. Sure that Fang must blame him for what happened, he starts to withdraw from the relationship and into himself, and starts to become far bitchier than usual.
It's up to Ivan to put the broken pieces back together.
Fang/Ivan/Izzy — Izzy's upset that Fang told Lucius about Izzy the Spewer
At the time, Izzy had been mortified... Fang and Ivan had been the only members of the crew (aside from Ed) that hadn't been complete and total assholes about it, who'd helped him get cleaned up and had stayed with him while he weathered the remainder of his sickness.
It's--understandably--still an incredibly touchy subject for him, so imagine his horror when Fang just shares the story willy-nilly and Lucius turns around and uses it as a weapon against him.
(I have no preference for what caused Izzy to be sick--he could've been seasick, had a stomach virus, been in the midst of a panic response, etc. I'm more here for the 'you don't air your lover's dirty laundry' type angst).

Stede/Ed/Izzy — Frenchie, Jim, Lucius, Fang & Ivan are protective OF Izzy, shovel talks, friendship
Lucius survived the Kraken and alongside Frenchie and Jim have seen Izzy's brittleness during the Kraken's reign. In the months where all they had was each other (plus Fang and Ivan) they've grown to understand and sympathize with Izzy's past actions (an asshole, but now a sad grieving one). And maybe they've all bonded during that time, with Izzy learning to be more unguarded around them, where they've created a semblance of friendship.
And when Stede gets back with the marooned crew everyone assumes the old dynamics would return. Stede and Ed did get together and the rest have gone back to normal except, there's been a shift with how some of the crew members treat Izzy. The ones who've experienced the past months with him have taken to defending him from the others. And when Stede and Ed start courting Izzy, the protective feelings they have switch into overdrive.
Frenchie, Jim, Lucius, Fang & Ivan have seen Izzy at his most vulnerable, have witnessed how kind he can be underneath that cold heart. And while he's still a bastard, they've come to see him as one of their own. Cue shovel talks & the rest of the crew getting the picture that Izzy is one of them now. Izzy tries not to cry at the revelation (he fails).

Fang/Ivan/Izzy — Izzy isn't sleeping after the failed mutiny
Izzy isn't sleeping (or, after a certain point, isn't sleeping well)--terrified that, if he closes his eyes and lets his guard down, the crew will come again while he's unconscious and try to take him out in a much more effective manner.
Fang, Ivan, and Izzy are a throuple... and Fang and Ivan have been trying to apologize for their part in nearly killing their lover for days now. Upon discovering that Izzy isn't sleeping, however, they decide to change course and offer to 'guard' him so that no-one can come in and hurt him while he's sleeping.
Izzy is skeptical at first, since Fang and Ivan were very much part of the original problem, but... when he caves, he ends up having one of the best night's sleep of his life.
Fill: Goodnight, Sleep Tight, and Pleasant Dreams to You
Stede is an eccentric millionaire who runs a pirate-themed tour boat company. The crew are still his crew, only some may have falsely believed it was an actual pirate ship (hence early plans to mutiny).
Ed, Izzy, Fang, Ivan, etc. are actual pirates and decide to book a tour with the aim of robbing Stede and killing everyone on board. Only, a storm arises and they end up stranded on a deserted island.
Of course, there's no point killing everyone when you need as many hands as you can get, so Ed tells Izzy that they're postponing the plan until they can repair the ship and get off the island. But the longer they're there, the more Ed starts to like Stede. And eventually, Ed realizes that he could never kill Stede.
As a matter of fact, pretty much everyone but Izzy is content with the way things are. Jim and Oluwande finally realize they're meant to be together. Lucius and Pete have a very loving but open relationship. Fang occassionally hooks up with Lucius, but he doesn't have a hardcore romance. But he's happy anyway because he found an orphaned coyote pup who he's raising as his own.
