A Blackbonnet Poem
In another life,
We would never have met.
I, Edward Teach,
Born on a beach,
Would have stayed
Untouched
By Stede Bonnet
I wonder
Would it have been better?
My head says no
My heart says yes
And then they trade opinions
In this life we have met
I have touched my foot to yours
Your hand has held the weight of my head
Our lips have met in long overdue
Confession
I wear fine things well, you told me
And forgave me for my backstabbing plans
We had fun together, you and I
Co-captains, such a rarity, but it worked
With you
I loved you
I love you
And you
Left
Did I really make you happy?
In yet another life,
I’d have killed you on sight
With no need to keep you alive.
Or I would have done it when I should have
A jab through the right,
Hitting all the important bits.
I would never have taught you otherwise.
Or a knife between the ribs to make it quick,
If I still had waited too long.
But I would have killed you
In this other life
Stede Bonnet would have laid dead at my feet
And I could have felt nothing
God, to feel nothing.
I do not like the Blackbeard of that life
He is more Kraken than Edward,
More beast than man,
More legend than reality.
But he would never have been hurt by you
Fallen for you
Crumbled for you.
To think a gentleman, the Gentleman Pirate,
Could damage me so badly
It was an honor to be damaged by you
To be swallowed
Whole
By happiness.
I will become the Kraken
If only to protect myself
Protect the heart I wish I didn’t have.
I will be him
Because he
has never
loved you
And lost you
And lost

This was episode 4, right?
Our Flags Mean Death Season 2 Leaked Footage!!!

I heard the new term for soulmates is ‘co-captains’?
heads up: reader implied to not use men's shampoo since they're completely baffled over the descriptions on the back of the bottle.
"joshua, what the absolute fuck is this."
joshua approaches you on the shampoo aisle, watching you look through the manly scents for something nice for him. he'd told you he didn't care what you picked out, but if you found something, he'd try it and see if he'd like it. and coming back to you with the most perplexed look on your face...
well, it's cute to say the least.
"what's what?" he slows to a stop next to you, peering down at the bottle you're examining thoroughly. "what?"
"what is this supposed to smell like?" you look up. "it just says pirate."
he shrugs, taking the bottle. "it means it smells like pirate." he holds it up, "it says you can't use it if you're not a pirate."
you give him a teasing glance. "are you?"
"i might be," he smiles. "but we'll find out if the pirate police come after us."
and it's silly, but it's enough to make you smile. "you have no idea what the description means, do you?"
"not a clue."
