Summary
Stede wonders what the man looks like. He doesn’t sound young like the first profile. Maybe a man in his late thirties? Or forties, perhaps? “Yes, of course, but I—” He shifts on the sofa, feeling embarrassed. “I’m rather new to this, I’m afraid.”
The man hums, and another shiver runs down Stede’s spine. “To phone sex?” he asks. “Paying for it? To talking to a man?”
“All of the above,” Stede sighs. “I mean, I’ve talked to men before, obviously, but…”
“Not for sex.”
Stede figures that the safest way to figure out if he's actually attracted to men is by calling a phone sex line.

Absolutely fantastic! So well written, perfect amount of mutual pining and angst and communication. I think I read this in the span of 24 hours because it was so unbelievably good. I also loved the plot so much, such a unique trope and so well implemented. Their characters felt so spot on, I loved how detail oriented Stede was and also of course Ed immediately falling in love. A very round story as well, felt like the perfect amount of words. Just mwah, chef’s kiss

This made me giggle and kick my feet. I loved every single second of reading this fic, it gave me the most wonderful heart pains with their pining and stupidity. It was so well written, I loved the pacing and the different styles, especially the crew’s group chat made me giggle so much. Wonderful through and through
