Summary
Eames hasn’t spent much of his life thinking about what Arthur gets up to in his free time, but he sincerely doubts it usually involves getting strung up from ceilings by his wrists and electrocuted.
For an incredibly brief but entirely legitimate two seconds, Eames considers burning the images and getting back in bed. However, it would be rude not to do something about Arthur’s predicament and at the end of the day, Eames’ mother never let rudeness slide.
Or guns at the table, but that’s another matter entirely.
**
Eames is thirty-six years old.
He has been a dream forger for eleven years.
He has four permanent addresses and lives nowhere.
**
A story about wasting time and making up for it again.**

Summary
Ed and Jim are both new to this whole “committed relationship” thing, but apparently people in relationships get each other gifts. A difficult task when one has no idea what they’re doing.
People in love – at least, people from Stede’s world who are in love – get each other gifts. This is a newly learned fact for Ed, but it is a fact nonetheless. Mary got Stede gifts. Mary got Stede many gifts. The lighthouse painting still hanging in their shared captains’ quarters, that was a gift from Mary. Stede has half of a petrified orange beside their bed, a gift from his daughter.
Stede owns nothing of Ed’s. Ed has given Stede nothing.
This may, he realizes with dread, have been an oversight.

Summary
Red sky at morning, sailor's warning.
Blackbeard hadn’t been lying when he'd said he didn’t feel fear. Fear was about having something to lose, and Blackbeard always wins.

Summary
I just really needed to see Stede be the one to clean the black off Ed's face.
OR
Stede didn't find Ed, but Ed did find him. And then he really had some explaining to do.

Summary
What else did gentlemen do? He looked around and saw the rope and thought of his father, remembered the tug, and he did something he’d never done before: he saved the dying man. It was thrilling more than any ear-splitting scream when the man smiled at Blackbeard, actually smiled, before his world went dark.
