Summary
It’s as obvious as anything, the way his belly is swollen. Obscene. He shouldn’t’ve been let out in public. Six months, six months Bonnet had been gone and now this, this, this wild fairy tale he and his crew have spun. Even if it was true, the whole ridiculous notion of it, it could have been anyone’s, couldn’t it? Six months. Christ. Ed wasn’t his keeper.
Well. Ed hadn’t been his keeper, back then. He damn well was now.
Or: Stede returns to the Revenge pregnant.

"But you love me," he said.
"No, Francis," she told him. It was not meant to be unkind, though it was and she knew it. "I know you, which is rare enough, but it is not the same thing. Someday, I hope, you will find someone who can do both."
Another platypus pond, and how Sophia came to be there.

Summary
Francis considered what to say. “You know that Captain Fitzjames and I became very close over the course of our ordeal. I could not have got through it without him by my side, and I grew to love him—well, almost like a brother.” Sophia’s eyebrows flickered as if she already knew what he was getting at, damn her intuition, but he was determined to get the words out.
In which the survivors of the expedition return to England, bisexual Victorians have a lot of feelings, and everyone lives happily ever after.
