Come About Ye, to Mutiny by feathershollyandgolly
Erik pushes the door open even further, directing Charles through the hold. It’s surreal, realizing that he could have been dead, rather than seeing any of this. He could have been home with his drunk mother. He could have been scanning the beach for his sister.
Instead, he is walking through the cargo hold of the Hellfire with the ward of her captain.
“You know, I never got to thank you,” Charles murmurs. “For saving my life, I mean.”
He swears he almost sees Erik smile.
