Summary
The ritual went like this: Days 0 - 6 following a break up, Ed was allowed to mope in a blanket fort or other cozy, bed-rotting receptacle of his choosing. He could eat junk food and watch sad movies and refuse to shower.
But, and this was imperative: he had to exit the blanket fort by Day 7. If he allowed himself to rot any longer than six days—he’d learned from hard experience—mourning would quickly morph into self-loathing and a full depressive episode that might last months.
So, on Day 7, he would exit the fort. Put on his sluttiest outfit. And find someone to fuck.
Blank slate. Getting over someone by getting under someone else. Tale as old as time.

Edward Teach is an expert at breakups—he should be, he's gone through enough of them over the years. He has a whole ritual for getting over someone. But nothing could have prepared him for Stede Bonnet.
