Summary:

There is a quality, Hal Gates thinks in the back of his mind, to an abandoned stretch of coast. It’s meant, for one, to be abandoned – devoid of people. Home to birds and the like – and not, he thinks, kicking once again at the pieces of his wrecked boat, bloody fucking useless idiot pirates too stupid to not go out in a ship-killer in a launch out of some stupid desire to avoid having a drink with the man who may have killed his son.

In which Gates lives, and the events of Season 1 and 2 play out very differently.

Additional Tags: So one day after the finale I sat down, and decided to find out what happens if Charles Vane is still alive post s4, you know – presuming he was out of action but not dead, and then the thought hit me that Madi and Vane would make a cute couple, and well here you have the results, not Silver friendly, post finale fix-it, Grieving, found family of a sort, All the people that love James and Thomas come together to rescue them from the shame farm
Summary:

When he’s transported from Nassau to Jamaica, Charles Vane does not expect to leave the jail in Port Royal alive. When he’s released as part of a prisoner exchange agreement at the end of the war –

There might, he thinks, just possibly be something wrong with him, because he is about to go rescue James Flint from slavery with the help of a princess and an admiral of the English fleet, and he’s not quite certain but he thinks he may even have been sober when he agreed to do it.
