Day 16: music
#ouizzy
"I wrote you a song"
"No you fucking didn't"
"I did"
Frenchie grinned mischievously.
"Alright, I'll bite. Let's hear it then."
"Greatest swordsman on the sea
A more fearsome foe you'll never meet
If you see him you'd better flee
Israel Basilica Hands

Quick and fierce when he's on his feet
But on his back he's sweet to me
Never had a tastier treat
Israel Basilica Hands"
Frenchie ended the song with a flourish and bowed to Izzy.
Izzy just shook his head and pulled Frenchie in by his tie
"You're a fuckin' menace," he whispered with barely contained fondness and he captured his mouth in a kiss.
"All yours, Babe."

Day 17: warm drinks

The Revenge was many things. Ridiculous primarily, but in the very best ways if you were to ask its crew. Comfortable, being filled with linens and pillows and soft spots to perch. Full of amenities, many that Captain Bonnet thought of himself.
Delicious foods and drinks at arms length, mostly because Roach prided himself on his cooking. And the Captains strove to supply him with the best ingredients to make sure every meal was up to snuff.
So when they ran out of cocoa and therefore the crews' nightly drinking chocolate they were used to having during story time, mutiny was never closer to happening.

Day 15: forts
It was a foggy morning, so much so that the Revenge had stayed anchored in harbor.
Stede and Ed had decided that the crew could take the time to have a break, enjoy a peaceful day or two.
Izzy, of course, found it difficult to rest. He'd woken at dawn like normal, and cursed the fog that turned the air to ether. When the captains gave the order to "take it easy" He scoffed and got about his business. There was still plenty to be done.
Izzy was in the store room checking their provisions when Ed found him.
"Iz! What the fuck man? What're you doing?"
Izzy didn't even look up from his counting.
"Work, Edward, like usual."
Ed grabbed him by the collar and pulled, ignoring Izzy's attempts to argue.

Day 14: Hand holding

This was it. Israel Hands' time had come. It would be a good death, noble even. To die in protection of his Captain. It was perfect really, fitting.
His sight was fading, everything going gray at the edges.
"Izzy! Hold on, we're gonna fix you!"
"Fuck, he looks bad."
There was a lot of yelling, but Izzy couldn't follow it anymore.
Pain radiated from his center, dulling everything else around him. He was getting so cold, like all his warmth was leaving his body through the hole.
"Izzy, Izzy stay with us!"
"Keep your fucking eyes open, Hands!"
The pain sharpened again when someone pressed down on the wound
Someone grabbed his hand, squeezed it hard. It was so hot, like sunshine in summer, bleeding warmth in to his numb fingers.

Day 13: Apple picking
"It's fall, bitches. I want to do all the things. Pumpkin spice. Apple picking. Haunted houses. Corn mazes. Cider mills. Et cetera. We're going all out this year."
Lucius was obviously in high spirits. And maybe had pre-gamed before meeting up with the rest of the crew at Jackie's.
"I'm not doing any of that." Jim said with a sneer.
"But you already told me all about that extreme haunted house you wanted to..."
Jim stared daggers at Olu.
"Of course you'd want to do one of the scariest fuckin' ones where you have to sign a waiver first." Izzy grinned like a hyena. "I'll go if Boodhari is too scared."
"Cheers, thanks Iz. I definitely am."

Day 12: painting
"I'm nearly done, stop grousing at me."
"Stupid fuckin Bonnet. Stupid fuckin Ed. I can't believe I agreed to this," Izzy muttered as he tried to keep the pose Lucius had carefully put him in hours ago.
He was laying on the chaise, a blanket draped just so across his chest and covering his manhood.
'A cheeky hint at what's below' Lucius had said as he laid it over him.
He was cold and his ass hurt and he wanted this experience over.
At least Spriggs hadn't been talking his ear off. Too busy staring at Izzy's form and trying to capture 'the essence of Izzy' at Stede's request.
Fuckin ridiculous.
He'd only agreed because Spriggs had painted Stede and Ed first and they'd been lovely, though he couldn't say so.

Day 11: Stargazing
It was storytime on The Revenge, but for the third night in a row, Stede was holed up in the Captains' cabin with a nasty cold. The crew missed their nightly ritual, but they still gathered to rest and be together.
It was wonderfully clear and the stars were bright, so they laid out their blankets on deck and spread out, staring at the stars. They pointed out the constellations they knew and made up stories for the ones they didn't.
"Izzy, which ones do you know?" Frenchie asked the first mate.
"Iz knows all of 'em" Ed piped in. "Tell 'em a good one."
Izzy pointed up at a cluster.
"That's Bezeh, the despised. It's supposed to look like a centaur, but I can't fuckin' see it."
