    Summary

    “About that,” Vi says. “How’d you end up here? What did a girl like you do to get tossed into this two-star shithole?”

    “Really? That’s how you ask? No subtlety in it?”

    “Uh, yeah? I saved you from getting shanked in the shower, so fair’s fair. What’s your deal, topside?”

    “Caitlyn,” she says. That isn’t right. That wasn’t the answer Vi was after. Names are easily given away but so seldomly remembered in Stillwater, but it echoes in Vi’s head. She almost doesn’t hear the actual answer. “And though I have no doubt a thousand people have given this answer before, I did nothing. I was doing my job, and then I was here. No trial. No sentencing. No crime to speak of.”

    Half a decade into Vi's stay in Stillwater, a topsider turns up, raving about being a Councillor's daughter.

    Summary

    Caitlyn squinted as the pink got closer to her, and in the dark water she was able to make out a pretty face. The woman has scarily pale skin, one that Caitlyn would associate with a dead body.

    ‘No. A dead body wouldn’t have such vibrant hair. Nor would she be swimming towards me.’

    One last bubble escaped Caitlyn's lips as the woman got closer to her. Whoever she was, she made sure to lean close enough and press her lips to Caitlyn’s. The pirate closed her eyes in contentment.

    ‘One last kiss from a pretty maiden before I die. How fitting.’

    After that, her world went dark.

    OR

    Pirate Caitlyn and Siren Vi meet by chance during a storm, and afterwards neither can or will stop thinking of each other. Caitlyn leaves Vi something if the Siren ever wants to find her again, and Vi finally pursues the adventure she's been looking for all these years.

    Summary

    “Does the lady know Miss Kiramman?” Mrs. Reynolds' voice sounds so pleasantly surprised at the notion. Vi hums, her eyes never leaving the sculpture. She can imagine her now, her sharp cheekbones, full lips and the bluest eyes Vi had ever seen. In the privacy of her own mind, Vi wishes she could see her again. To apologize.

    Looking at the statue now, Vi feels like she’s both gazing upon a stranger and a long lost friend. Someone she has admittedly found herself missing and thinking about constantly, wondering what her life would look like if she had answered differently all those months ago. The statue, while beautiful, doesn’t do Caitlyn justice. It doesn’t show the little furrow in her brow when she’s focused, the small, hard fought crinkles in her eyes when Vi had finally managed to get a laugh. It doesn’t show the lines of her face that scream nothing short of crestfallen heartbreak at Vi’s own hand.

    “Only a little,” Vi finally replies.

    “Do you not think she’s beautiful?” Mrs Reynolds asks.

    Vi doesn’t look away from the statue. “She’s stunning.”

    Summary

    Caitlyn believes she knows her plan. She doesn't need happiness, she doesn't need love. Those things are overrated anyway.

    Then the child shows up.

    Then her mom shows up.

    And just like that, happiness and love are thrust back onto her path. And she must decide if she's going to fight for them, or let her fear push her back to her original plan.

    Or

    Caitlyn didn't know she had a kid with Vi until that kid decided being a family should be part of their plan.
