    Summary

    “I'm gay.”

    He's looking at his feet, because he hasn't quite come to terms with the fact that he's saying this in a room where other people, strangers, can hear it.

    But this is still the first time he's said it this way: out loud, in a declarative sentence. Being nervous is fine. Frank said that being nervous is fine, and Buck just said he's proud, and the only thought Eddie has in his head is that it's embarrassing he can't raise his head and say it like a man, so clearly, he's going to need to hang on to other people's words for the time being, someone who isn't his dad trying to explain the ways Eddie's allowed to inhabit the world.

    He doesn't need to ask anyone's permission to be who he is. That's also a thing Frank said.

    in which eddie attends a self-empowerment group for gbtq men to supplement his therapy, and is empowered to: forgive himself, say "i'm gay" to his own reflection in the mirror, accidentally adopt an adult, make fried rice, and tell his straight best friend that he's in love with him. not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    Five years after her father is killed first by a jungle cat, then by a carriage, and then by a falling piano, Alma Bonnet decides that his absence in her life is, quite frankly, complete horse shit. Obviously the only way to find him is to run away and become a pirate. Because that makes complete and total sense.

    Somehow, it doesn't end with her dead.
