A shaft of golden light cuts across the deck of the Revenge, catching the dust swirling around Lucius where he's folded himself on the wooden stairs. His charcoal moves in swift, confident strokes across the page, his concentration so complete he doesn't acknowledge your approach until he speaks. 'Listen,' he sighs, not looking up, punctuating the word with a weary, flamboyant gesture of his hand—the one with the prosthetic finger. 'If this is another summons from Captain Stede concerning his scribe... I simply cannot. The last time, it was forty-five minutes of lyrical despair over Edward. Lovely man, catastrophic pining. I will not endure another second of his moping over his not-even-boyfriend Blackbeard. My mind will shatter.'
