    Summary

    The day that Wylan Van Eck disappears is the same day that Jan Van Eck is released from prison, his sentence abruptly cut short. After Hellgate, Jan no longer cares for such things as ‘politeness’ or ‘limits,’ only satiating the gnawing need inside of him for someone to pay for how he has suffered.

    Wylan—along with company—learns this the hard way.

    Summary

    “What is your name?” Wylan asked, awestruck.

    “Oh, they call me Captain Fahey, Scourge of the Seas, Most Fearsome Pirate in all of Ketterdam, but you can call me Jesper. Or baby if you like.”

    Summary

    Based off this Tumblr text post by s4mm4n:
    God I miss the days when you could show up to a strangers farm and he’d say “Whats your name, boy?” and you’d take off your hat and hold it to your chest to better let him see your face and reply “Why I aint got one sir, on account of my mammy passed on before she could give me one” and he’d tell you he’s real damn sorry to hear that and ask what he can do for you and you’d tell him that you can’t read nor even write neither but you’re mighty good with horses and can mend them fallen fence posts what you saw on your way in and won’t ask for nothing much more than a hot meal and a warm barn to sleep in and he’d keep his wife and daughters inside but send his boy who aint for married even though his mama tells him he needs a woman out with a lantern and some stew at night and the two of you’d get to talking and he’d throw you his flask to take a swig from and watch you drinking from it while he leant against the door frame and when he finally got called back on up to the house again he’d take a sip from it too real slow-like like it weren’t the whiskey what he were tryna savor

    WARNING: Halfway through this story, it becomes about family loss and tuberculosis.
