Summary
It was the crew, under Oluwande, who marooned them in an abandoned lighthouse keeper’s hut for a week. Nice hut. Nice lighthouse. Food, water, and one plain bed. Everyone was fed up with them separate, so they’d kill each other now or patch it up. There were amused plans for either contingency, floated on balmy, spiced rum seas under canvas, sun, and moon.
Seven days. They lived.This is a background story of how they got together, before Roving On.
There's mild roughhousing because Ed can be an idiot. There are references to canon consistent bullying of Stede. Characters tell lies.This can be read independently as a pleasant, no angst reunion story (a turtle is threatened; Ed doesn't like lizards; Stede gets sand in his britches). There are fleeting references to a character who does not appear, so you can ignore any name you don't recognize.
If you want a brief explanation and background, see Notes at the end. For readers familiar with The Pirate and the Barber, there are some nuggets of information within.
