And what if stede and ed were to give izzy a little smooch on each cheek at the same time to thank him for everything he s done for them what then

Me, rocking backwards and forwards talking to my cat in a deranged way: ed has made Izzy an extension of himself this season and while Izzy has battled against that in the face of Stede he goes back to taking responsibility for Ed's actions. They go back to being one in the same. Because they see themselves thus in each other, perhaps they see themselves as the worst parts of each other, Stede choosing to love and accept both of them would be so meaningful. This is how steddyhands can still win.
