"So I suggest you get the situation under control before that happens." Billy heard the waver and emotion his own voice, and yes, he was scared. He was scared of what he might do and he was scared of what might happen to them."

The last seven chapters (16-22) of my own story about Billy Bones journey to the Walrus and how his life changed. If you find the timeline or disposition confusing, let me know. This is nothing but my own fantasy about how it will end.

Summary
Alright, here comes the fluff… Shamelessly I’ve turned Nassau to a quite nice little place and totally ignored a lot of painful happenings in the series.
Thomas Hamilton never died in the asylum, but was bribed out through some of Miranda Hamiltons loyal contacts in London and shipped off in secret to Nassau. There they met up wih James Flint and had a happy reunion. The Urca gold was used to secure Nassau from the English attack and, of course Charles Vanes was saved. Eleanor Guthrie had during the whole time, in secret worked behind the Englishmens back and as she joined forces with Rackham, Vane, Silver, Flint, Bonny and Blackbeard, the island soon became free from Englishmen.
This is about to be two years after Nassaus release and John Silver (who by the way never lost his leg) has been away for a long time, when he suddenly returns to Nassau and seek out Billy Bones.
(I honestly have no idea where this is going, I just felt the need to linger in Nassau... Aaand I just realised this might be due to spiderlilies beautiful work "Ithaca")

Summary
This turned out to be a REALLY long story that I had to split in two, simply because 80+ chapters felt a bit too much in one work. At least it felt more difficult to handle for me. "Naked in the dark (return him to my arms)" is part 1 of "All That May Leave Us Shattered" and then part 2, "Whatever that's left (another holy war)" takes up the thread about 3 months after the events in chapter 45 of "Naked...". It's the SAME STORY, just split in two to make it easier to work with. Alright, here we go:
It's past season three. Billy Bones and Ben Gunn are matelotes (pirate husbands) and are living together in a little house. The war is won and Charles Vane, who is a former lover of Billy's, is still alive. The story begins with Billy desperately searching for Ben, who's nowhere to be found...
Billy/Ben is a tricky couple to dive in to when there's angst in the picture, I've discovered. Please don't hesitate to leave a comment if you like the story or think it's a bit fucked up <3

Whatever that's left (another holy war) by OnlyOneWoman for thewalruscaptain (nightly_division), TheMissingMask
Fandoms: Black Sails
29 Sep 2016
Tags
Summary
This is a follow-up to "Naked in the dark (return him to my arms)". If you have not read it, I recommend you to do that before reading this, or it will be a bit tricky to follow this story. The couple it's all about is Billy Bones and Ben Gunn. Other couples will only be side figures. Here is a small recap of the latest events (SPOILERS if you didn't read "Naked in the..."!):
"Whatever that's left (another holy war)" continues about three months after the last chapter in "Naked in the dark (return him to my arms)". After being abducted, tortured and raped by two religious fanatics - a man and a woman - Ben Gunn is left extremely emotionally scarred and his lover - and husband to be - Billy Bones tries his best to help him, but his efforts seem to be in vain and Ben ends up threatening to shoot him. After a long, agonizing time trying to help him, Billy finally sees no other way out but leaving.
Once again: This is DIRECTLY linked with "Naked in the dark..." and wont make much sense if read separately. Comments are, of course, dearly appreciated. This is such an awesome fandom <3

Summary
Preface & Chapter One. This is supposed to be a long story. Read the tags and forget all about canon. This is an entirely different universe in many ways and the first chapter will explain some of it. This is my first serious story with Silverflint as major characters. The explicit parts will show later on. REALLY LATE, but it's for a good reason. It wouldn't fit the story to bring them in too early.
I'm not a Silverflint fan, really. Never was. But I know many are and I've decided to give this pairing a proper try and dedicate whatever distastrous result it will be to some of the Silverflint (and Gunnbones) fans in this awesome fandom.
I want to point out that there will be a quite big change from the canon characters in many ways. Silver, Flint, Billy and other characters are here placed in a very different society than the Nassau we know from the series and especially Silver will have a backstory that changes his personality. His ways of manipulating his surroundings are VERY different and has very different causes than in Black Sails.
14/5 2017: I realise I've not updated this in a while, but it's NOT cancelled. I'm just waiting for inspiration to return! *kisses*

Summary
Canon divergent from 4.02. Max's men were able to kill Hands and take Silver to the plantation where he meets Thomas Hamilton. Flint and the other pirates rescue Silver (and Thomas). Thomas learns of the war effort and wants to help so after the rescue, they continue the war.
Meanwhile the dynamics between Silver, Flint, and Thomas grow increasingly complicated, and Thomas is encouraging developments with everything he has.
Eventual Silver/Flint/Hamilton.

Summary
Once he has his hands on the thief Flint is willing to do whatever it takes to get the page from him. And then Billy & Gates say marriage is the only solution left on the table.
Or rather matelotage – the time honored pirate form of matrimony. Billy says it’s the only way to regain the crew’s trust, by marrying one of them, and Gates agrees. For once Flint’s desperate enough to agree to it.
He never expects to actually fall in love with the little shit.

Make Me Lose my Mask of Sanity (My Fall Will be for You) by OnlyOneWoman
Fandoms: Black Sails
09 Nov 2019
Tags
Summary
Title is inspired from Children of Bodom's "Mask of Sanity" but even more from Nightwish's "Ghost Love Score" and I pretty much wrote this whole piece while listening to this version on repeat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4V_eoR6r1Tw
In this installment, things get more angsty and uncertain. I hope I'm not about to make you miserable, E_A_Phoenix, because I'm honestly not even in control of this story anymore. It just... tells itself.
"Scent of the sea before waking afterwards
Brings me to thee
Into the blue memory
My fall will be for you
Into the blue memory"~Ghost Love Score by Nightwish~

Summary
Mary and Silver POV time again because, well, they have things to say - or think. Silver is forced to feel shit, Mary gets to know more of Nassau, her Captain is still bedridden and Billy, well, he's a like a big, sweet dog and Mary's picture of pirates just don't fit anymore.
I was asked to bring in Joji and Flint POV in the story as well, but I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, RaptorSquad22, because I simply find it too hard to keep the story in line if I add too many characters. I hope some Read and Silver will help <3
And as always, I raise my cup of rum to you, E_A_Phoenix. May the wind be prosperous to your amazing ships! <3<3<3

Pitch Black Surface, Abyss of Light by OnlyOneWoman for TuridTorkilsdottir
Fandoms: Black Sails
28 Nov 2019

Summary
Just what we all needed, a part fucking 16 of this mayhem embellished with the usual angst and pain, angry one-eyed Captains, stupid, one-legged poodles, angry gunners, worried first mates, a horny girl in men's clothes and a certain hat wearing demon lurking in the shadows.
There's a huge risk (chance) that this series will include my first serious lesbian smut, but I'm not sure. How ever, here's to you, E_A_Phoenix, as another little treat for reasons you already know (you deserve good things!) and also to you TuridTorkilsdottir because finding TWO more lowbone shippers is like finding a second ship of Urca Gold :D
All the love and whoever reads this and has any thought about it what so ever, feel free to comment! <3<3<3

Summary
Greetings, fellow buckaneers! The best way to spend the holidays, is by writing more fan fiction and in this part, we get a little more Captain Flint and Mary Read - who surprised me - and more friendship, a royally pissed off gunner, a hurt poodle of a quartermaster, a perpetually confused first mate and two Captains (not) handling their respective losses.
Lets just say that Mary Read is not impressed. Oh, and I wanted to tag the relationship between Flint and Thomas as past, but it seems like it doesn't show up in the tags properly then, so I want to just make it clear that this is long before Flint knows Thomas is still alive so the relationship is very much past for that reason.
Title is stolen from Nightwish's "Sleeping Sun" and I might have stolen a phrase from Gemma Teller in Sons Of Anarchy. If you've seen the show, you'll know which one.

Più volte gli avevano intimato di portar rispetto al capitano promettendo di mozzargli la testa al primo segno di insubordinazione. Più volte quel tipo aveva alzato lo sguardo verso Yoongi e l’aveva sfidato con l’impertinenza di chi la morte non l’aveva mai davvero presa in considerazione.
«Sono Jeon Jungkook!» aveva urlato sovrastando perfino la tormenta. «E voi non mi porterete via dalla mia nave!»

TK’s eyes slide over to the side of the hospital bed, a small bouquet of sunflowers and a teddy bear adorned with a fire hat resting alongside it. He hadn’t noticed that before.
“You visit the gift shop, dad?”

Summary
“Marriage, John! How’s a bloke propose marriage?” he whispered intently into his ear.
“Are we talkin’ about Stede?”
“Yeah, man! Help me out here!”
“Why me? Certainly you’ve been ‘round as much as I have, more even!”
“Sure, but, Stede’s different, man, you know that!” Ed risked a glance over his shoulder to see if Stede was listening in. He remained fixated on his conversation with Fang, fortunately. “I can’t just…ask him!”
“I think I take your meaning, Cap’n,” Feeney took a sip of his mead with an impish gleam in his eyes. “You want the askin’ t’ be special.”
“Exactly!” He relented, “So can you help me out?”
“Hmm, maybe,” the big man looked thoughtful. “Back when I worked in me mother’s shop, I’d overhear the ladies chatterin’ all the time. So I know what they liked their men folk t’ do. Not sure if that will help you with Stede, though.”
Ed was already at the edge of his seat, eager for any morsel of information on how to do this right. “Tell me,” he begged.
Or, Ed is desperately ready to ask Stede for his hand in matelotage, but he wants everything to be perfect.
