    Summary

    There was a rich mythology around soulsigns among the upper echelon of society and the scrawling X (with a dip on the downstroke) on his hip did not fit anywhere into it. It was coarse and common and no more than a weak-hearted, soft-handed, lily-livered thing like him deserved: to be used up by someone from the rabble below his station in life.

    Summary

    “The fuck?” Ed manages, instantly getting his foot stuck in a nearby bucket.

    “Sh-shh!” Stede pushes two fingers against his lips to shut him up.

    Ed goes still and a bit cross-eyed, staring down at the hand on his mouth. Stede moves it away, with a mouthed “sorry!” focusing intently on the sounds outside the shed instead.

    In the alley, hurried steps and shouting voices rush past; they catch fragments of: “Where the fuck did they go then?” or “Keep looking!” and even “The short one looks like a bloody birthday cake, how do you lose that—”

    Summary

    What happens when a pirate scorned catches news that the man who abandoned him, returned home to his nearly widowed wife instead of fulfilling their promise to one another? Or, maybe worser, what happens when that same pirate finds out that the man he regrettably loved, died saving that woman from a wild jungle cat?
    That pirate finds that woman and means to take his revenge on her himself. But, while he's there, he might as well find out what was so special about Mary Bonnet anyhow, right?
