Summary
Stede Bonnet has been waiting his whole life for his life to begin.
He knows, as an eleven-year-old boy having rocks thrown at his head that his life will begin when he leaves school. When he escapes the bullies that torment him. When he’s an adult that has control over his own life.
It doesn’t.

Summary
When they get back to the ship, Stede asks Ed to wait in the dinghy and climbs up the ladder to ask the crew if Ed can stay. Ed waits. He hadn’t really expected to get this far anyways. He certainly hadn’t expected Stede to follow him off the ship, or invite him back, or talk to the crew on his behalf. In between the gentle slap of the waves against the hull of the ship, he can hear that conversation happening above him, a quiet muttering that sits just on the edge of his hearing.
He should probably care about what they’re saying, should probably hoist himself up the ladder a bit to suss out who’s in favor and who’s against, determine what kind of situation he’s facing by climbing right back on board with the crew that had just mutinied against him, calculate his odds of surviving through the night. He should probably do all of that.
It sounds exhausting.
Ed gets back on the Revenge and everything that's happened in the last few days catches up to him. Stede does his best to help him through it.

Summary
Alma Bonnet is a newly-thirteen, bold and intrepid child, and in the process of coming into her own as a teen, she has stowed away on her father's pirate ship.
When Alma is discovered, now a many-weeks-long journey away from Barbados, wearing a fake beard and clothes that are much too big for her, Ed and Stede must change their plans in order to return her back home, going from fierce pirates to unwitting caretakers.
Alma's unique charm, wit, and child-like sense of adventure brings out a softer, more protective side in Ed and Stede, who struggle between protecting Alma from the more dangerous aspects of pirate life and letting her find her burgeoning independence.
Alma's presence makes Ed and Stede reflect upon their own childhoods, and reminds them that "coming of age" never really stops.
