thinking about how all the rest of blackbeards crew had left by the time stede found the revenge

thinking about how ed was laid out in such a respectful way, like he was someone wanted to mourn

thinking about even after all he said, after mutinying on him, izzy could never really leave ed

thinking about how after all he did for them, all he lost, our crew couldn't leave him either

ngl ive been having A Time of it, though, as of late, and it’s not even just the new job. My body has decided to malfunction in several different confusing ways and I have to force my brain to stay awake sometimes

not to be another donations post but you may remember how over the summer we had massive amounts of plumbing problems and other unexpected moving costs? well. after proceeding to work every single hour available to me for six months, take no holidays whatsoever, and budget the hell out of every aspect of my life, I was actually on track to pay everything back and maybe have a little bit of wiggle room by the time summer came around!

and then we got a call from the vet about routine labs saying that if we didn't take Suzy in to an emergency specialty hospital immediately, she would die within in a week, she might die anyways if we took her there, but it was our only chance to have a few more months with her. after an extremely difficult household discussion, we decided that we needed to do as much as we could for her. she's been a beloved member of the family for 18 years. we were not going to abandon her in her hour of need.

with two days at the specialty hospital, the prognosis was better than we could have possibly hoped! the most important thing is she does not have heart problems at all, which means that we can treat her chronic kidney disease with normal IV fluids and with careful treatment she could easily be with us for years to come. the timely intervention also may or may not have saved her from acute kidney failure too, we'll know when we go back to the vet on Wednesday to get her blood checked where her levels have stabilized at.

two days at the specialty hospital means we are also down $3652 , and no longer are on track to pay back everything by July when it comes due unless a couple of uncertain things going forward Go Right, I do not trust everything to Go Right, and we're also still uncertain about what long-term treatment going forward is going to cost.

I still have my ko-fi and my patreon, but honestly, I'm aware that everything is tight for everyone always and there are also a lot of causes that need money right now and in the face of that "hey my family went super out on a limb to try to save our cat and would love some help not falling off" feels kind of shallow. but like. not to sound dumb or like a youtuber or podcaster, but, like. honestly I think the Most Helpful Thing that anyone could do for me right now is take a fucking HelloFresh link that will send you a "free" box for cost-of-shipping ($7ish?) if you Sign Up For An Account that you can then cancel Immediately After The Box Has Shipped and Never Give Them Any More Money Than That and get Six To Ten Meals Out Of It, and for getting someone to "sign up", they will give me a free box too. like. if 13 people are willing to take a link then I don't need to worry about food for the next three months. which would be. HUGE.

so I guess.... dm me if you want a link? otherwise expect to see a lot of promotion of my writing/ patreon as I scramble the hell to try to make this money up

"Vlad, I just can't believe you." Maddie's voice was hoarse after hurling every curse word she could. "Not only did you free the ancient tyrannical ghost king Pariah Dark and steal his Ring of Rage, but then you gave it to Valerie, a child—"

"She's a mature young lady," insisted Vlad. "Very competent."

"Really? Is that why she practically handed the ring back to Pariah Dark?"

Vlad sucked his teeth. "Okay, I didn't expect her to do that."

Maddie paced the floor of the Fenton basement lab. Jack crossed his arms and glared at Vlad, who sheepishly rubbed his upper arm.

"Why did you even have that ring in the first place?" Maddie stopped pacing and turned to Vlad again. "What did you want with it?"

"Ah—" Vlad shrugged. "I just thought it would prove useful for my research, that's all."

"Liar," spat Maddie. "You were after power, weren't you? You probably wanted to get the Crown of Fire, too."

"You wanted to be the next ghost king?" asked Jack with a small smirk.

"I—no," blurted Vlad. "It really was for research."

"Then why didn't you run it by us first?" demanded Maddie. "Why would you do such a thing without telling us?"

"Because I have my own research objectives," Vlad shot back. "I only report to you for anything concerning Daniel, and this had nothing to do with him."

"You still should've told us." Maddie gritted her teeth, clenched her fists. "Everyone is in danger now because of your selfishness. You should've told us."

"Why?" Vlad's fists also clenched. "Why should I tell you anything about my own private ghost research? It's not like we're married, Maddie."

Maddie released a sharp exhale and narrowed her eyes. Vlad held her stare, not backing down.

"Enough," said Jack, coming between them. "We're wasting time. People are going to die if we don't find a way to stop the ghost king right now."

"Vlad, you and Danny need to team up," said Maddie.

"Daniel and I are strong," said Vlad, straightening up. "But we can't defeat Pariah Dark on our own, not when he possesses both the Crown of Fire and Ring of Rage—and don't start yelling at me again, Maddie, I know it's my fault he has both. You've made that abundantly clear."

Maddie shut her mouth, pursing her lips.

"Even if we recruited and convinced all of the ghosts to join us in this fight, it still wouldn't be enough," Vlad continued. "We just aren't strong enough as we are. We need something to…enhance our powers."

Vlad's voice echoed with a meaning Jack and Maddie both caught. They looked over their shoulders at the Ecto-Skeleton, light gleaming in its shiny metal armor.

"The Ecto-Skeleton would magnify the user's abilities by over a hundred times," murmured Maddie. "And that would include ghost powers."

"But it's dangerous," said Jack. "It could kill whoever wears it."

"What choice do we have, Jack?" asked Vlad. "Everyone will die if we don't do something, and Pariah Dark is simply too strong. We have to try something more drastic."

Jack sighed. "If you're sure you want to do this, Vlad, then I'll see if I can make some quick upgrades that will keep you alive as long as possible."

Vlad scoffed. "Me? What makes you think I'm going to wear it?"

Jack's brow furrowed. "Ah—well, I just assumed—I mean, I would wear it, but I don't have ghost powers like you do."

"But I am not the only one with ghost powers," said Vlad, folding his arms.

Jack looked at Vlad, then at Maddie, who was biting her lower lip and looking down at the floor.

"No," said Jack. "Not Danny."

Maddie lifted her head. "Jack—"

"Maddie, we are not making Danny do this."

"We wouldn't be making him do anything. We would guide him to make the decision on his own."

"That still sounds like making him do it."

"He really is the best choice, Jack," said Vlad.

"How exactly is a teenage boy the best choice?" spat Jack.

"Well, to begin, his young age means he's more likely to survive," said Vlad. "And his powers are already superior to what mine were when I had them for the same amount of time."

"But they're not superior to your powers right now."

"Perhaps not, but his ghost form is also stabler than mine is, considering his DNA was compatible with the mutation from the start whereas mine wasn't, hence I nearly died."

"You're stable enough now, aren't you?"

"Enough on my own, but the Ecto-Skeleton would likely be less stable in its enhancements for my ghost powers than Daniel's. And again, that means he's more likely to survive."

"He's still just a kid, and your powers are still stronger than his," said Jack. "We're the adults here. We're supposed to protect him, not the other way around. We've always controlled everything in our experiments to keep him safe."

"His safety won't matter if Pariah Dark destroys Amity Park."

"This is all your fault to begin with, Vlad. You're really going to make a child wear the Ecto-Skeleton and take on the ghost king because of your mistake? Because you're afraid of dying?"

"It's more than that," said Vlad, sounding cross. "He also has a greater chance of success. Daniel's ghostly obsession is far more suited than mine to the successful completion of this task."

"We still don't even know what exactly his obsession is!" yelled Jack.

"Whatever it is, it's made him choose to become a superhero," said Vlad. "And that's what we need right now: a superhero."

Jack huffed and turned to Maddie. "You don't actually agree with this, do you?"

Maddie chewed the inside of her cheek. "Well…"

"Maddie, that's our son! He could die."

"You were perfectly fine with shocking him in that portal and turning him into a ghost hybrid," said Vlad with a sneer.

Jack rounded on him. "That was not my idea. I was never fine with it."

"But you didn't stop it," Vlad shot back.

Jack gritted his teeth. "We calculated everything to ensure he would survive."

"And that's what we'll do now," said Maddie, her tone calm. "Danny must be the one to wear the Ecto-Skeleton, Jack. Vlad is correct that Danny's ecto-stability and obsession give him the best chance of defeating the ghost king."

"And we can certainly make some modifications that will be specifically compatible with Danny's ecto-DNA, increasing his chances of survival," said Vlad.

"We'll have to hurry," said Maddie. "We can formulate a plan to put the idea to wear the suit into Danny's head while we're working."

"Perhaps we can even find a way to make the suit transform and change colors to match Daniel's ghost form."

"We can preinstall mechanisms to channel his known ghost powers, too."

Maddie and Vlad continued discussing the matter while heading over to one of the lab workstations. Jack watched them but did not follow.

"Jack?" Maddie turned and frowned at him. "Jack, we need you. You're our top engineer here."

Jack's eyes were wide as he shook his head, threading his fingers through his greying hair. "This just can't be happening."

"It is happening," said Maddie. "And we don't have time to keep arguing. People are going to die if we don't modify this suit for Danny's DNA and powers."

Jack said nothing, did nothing.

"You know I'm right," said Maddie firmly.

Another couple beats of hesitation, and Jack finally gave in and joined Maddie and Vlad at the workstation.
