Felt the absolute NEED after seeing you post about epic, BUT HERES MY PROPOSAL TO YOU
Which South Park characters would you cast as each epic character (and why if youâre feeling ambitious)
HII!! sorry for the late response, life has absolutely been putting me through the wringer đ
IVE ALREADY POSTED MY SOUTH PARK EPIC CASTING BUT IVE INTERACTED WITH A FEW OTHER EPIC FANS AND MY CASTING HAS CHANGED A BIT! :)
okay so apologies if this is messy and disorganised lmfao
Odysseus: Stan Marsh for obvious reasons
Penelope: Wendy Testaburger again for obvious reasons
Telemachus: Their child!! -> this would be an original character I guess :p
Athena: Kyle Broflovski -> angsty platonic style đ *rubs hands together menacingly*
Hermes: Kenny McCormick -> I dare you to come up with a better casting can you imagine Kenny singing dangerous?? We all know heâs got that Holy Moly ;)
Eurylochus: Tolkein Black -> I feel like Stan and Tolkein have this rocky relationship in general. Tolkein would be loyal to his captain but also has morals of his own.
Polites: Butters Stotch -> heâs that one comfort character that dies at the very start (does this make OdyPoli Stutters (Stan x butters) đ¤)
Posideon: Craig Tucker (Polyphemus and the sheep are like his Guinea pigs lmao đ) -> I REALLY REALLY wanted Creek to be in this au but I cannot for the life of me fit them in anywhere. One of my very lovely mutuals and fellow spxepic fans recommended Craig as Posideon and the sheep as Guinea pigs (which is genius and I love btw) but then tweek as Polyphemus would be odd considering heâs Craigâs child. Polyphemus and his siblings are just giant Guinea pigs in this for now đ
Calypso: Leslie Myers -> who better than her to be the manipulator and emotional torturer?
Tiresias (the prophet): Micheal (I just found out he doesnât have a last name what) -> Tweek actually had this role first but Micheal honestly gives off emo dead prophet vibes.
Circe: Red McArthur OR Henrietta Biggle -> they both give off witchy girlboss vibes but im not sure which one of them would resort to lust for persuasion
Aeolus: Heidi Turner (?) OR Nichole Daniels -> Iâm purely unsure of this because I also want to cast Heidi as Hera and Nichole would be a stand in (donât get me wrong I love Nichole)
Zeus: Eric Cartman -> um. egotistical, sadistic maniac? Who does that sound like? I also like to make this epic au also a stick of truth au so Cartman is currently so powerful only because he currently possesses the stick.
Aphrodite: Bebe Stevens -> she was originally Circe and I still think sheâd fit her pretty well too but I needed an Aphrodite and Ares stand in ship and Clybe was the only one that would fit
Ares: Clyde Donovan, for the shits and giggles đ -> I literally giggle every time I think of this casting because Clyde the crybaby as Ares is hilarious. He literally only got this role cause of Bebe. But they are both arrogant so in works in that way I guess??
Hephaestus: Christophe the Mole -> passionate weapon master who is all about loyalty and war? Christophe.
Apollo: Jimmy Valmer -> we HAVE to give the role of music god to our local favourite bard
Hera: I was going to cast Heidi here too because Zeus as Cartman and Heidi as Hera and her part in God Games would fit PERFECTLY
Antinous: either Damien or Trent Boyett đ -> I needed angry characters that want power and these two are what Iâve got
so yes!!! This is my official unofficial South Park epic casting đ
I also have an alternative k2 au with Kyle as Odysseus instead but I guess this one is like my MAIN headcanon/casting
I would LOVE to hear your opinions and casting (along with anyone else whoâs interested :>)
Thank you so much for this ask and feel free to spam my inbox whenever!! đđ
(this is so goddamn long omfg)
#south park#south park headcanons#south park x epic???#Iâm so glad Iâve found my people đ#kyle broflovski#stan marsh#kenny mccormick

Hey guys! POTC AU update time at last! Very sorry for the delay, but s*** is really going down now in this story...
One of my biggest criticisms for the climax of At Worldâs End is how, ultimately, both the Navyâs armada and all of the diverse pirates gathered together as part of the Brethren Court are ultimately pointless. We get our huge confrontation between the Flying Dutchman and the Black Pearl, which ends with both ships blowing up Beckettâs flagship...and then the Navy just hightails it away with their tails between their legs, even if they still outmatch the pirates and there would surely be a chain of command under Beckett that could take over. There isnât even anything to show that the Navy lost their nerve after losing their âgreat leaderâ or anything or were reluctant to fight to begin with. And again, that ends up making the non-main-character pirates that we only just met in At Worldâs End, like the Pirate Lords, completely unnecessary to the narrative aside from giving up their Pieces of Eight, which easily couldâve been rewritten to not include the Pirate Lords. This is why Iâm restructuring this climax so that all of the Lords (and the Keeper of the Code) have a role in the coming battle, rather than just having them stand on the sidelines.
Black powder is a much messier, more combustible precursor to modern gunpowder, which has a very strong odor and produces a lot of smoke when it explodes. Itâs better used for things like fireworks and rockets than firearms, particularly since itâs even more vulnerable to moisture than regular gunpowder is. Black powder was first developed in China circa the 9th century, before its use in firearms was phased out in favor of the cleaner, safer gunpowder we know today.
Although the traditional âRedcoatâ was developed as a uniform for British soldiers in the mid-1600s, the British Navy actually didnât have official uniforms for its sailors until 1748. Before that point, only naval officers generally wore uniforms. My guess about why the Pirates films donât follow this model and have even the lower-rank British Naval soldiers wear uniforms in AWE is for the sake of visual short-hand for the audience and to further accent the divide between the uniformity of the law-keepers (the army and Navy) VS the diversity of the law-breakers (the pirates).
Previous part is here, and whole tag is here! Jules Farrier-Weasley belongs to @cursebreakerfarrier, Samantha OâConnell belongs to @samshogwartsâ, Ellie Hopper belongs to @that-ravenpuff-witch, Arjun Singh and Aishwarya Mehra belong to @hogwarts9, and Finn McGarry/Davy Jones belongs to @theguythatdraws! Also briefly referenced is Gwendolyn âWendyâ Gordon, who belongs to @drinkyoursoupbitch. xoxo
x~x~x~x
When Jules, Jacob, and Orion returned, they immediately convened a war council with the other Pirate Lords and their crews in the Hall of the Codex. There was a lot of strategizing that needed to be done before the battle the following day -- and as to be expected, Murphy McNully was instrumental in pinpointing what they needed.
âAccording to the Admiralâs intelligence, there are 34 Man Oâ Wars out there waiting for us. We ourselves have a fleet of 73 galleons, brigs, schooners, sloops, and ketches. Now, naturally, that sounds like a lot, but keep in mind that each of the Navyâs Man Oâ Wars has anywhere between 50 to 100 guns on each ship...meaning they have between 1700 and 3400 guns altogether. Even if we technically could have more guns numerically, thereâs a 97.9% chance that our ships wouldnât be able to withstand a full-frontal assault by those things. If we tried, weâd basically have to sacrifice our lives in the hundreds just to deal any damage, and even then, thereâs less than a one percent chance that we could actually defeat the Navy, doing that.â
âItâd be a pyrrhic victory, at best,â said Ellie sadly.
Jae nodded. âI doubt any of us are much in the mood for a suicide mission, so weâll need to come up with something better.â
âEspecially since Careyâs on board one of those ships,â said Bill solemnly. âWe canât let him get hurt.â
Charlie, Jules, Jacob, and Orionâs eyes all narrowed at this. While Charlie and Jules nodded in agreement, Jacobâs jaw clenched and Orion clasped his hands in his lap and closed his eyes.
Ashe brought a hand up to squeeze Jacobâs shoulder, resting his head absently on top of his.
âSpeaking from my own experience,â he said very dryly, âbrute strength is hardly a be-all-end-all. Obviously one should think twice before attacking a larger enemy...but sometimes the element of surprise can turn the tide. Larger enemies often assume they have less to fear.â
âAye...â said Jacob softly.
He considered the makeshift map and model ships theyâd set up on the stained round table. Then he reached out to pick one of the miniature ketches and consider it carefully.
"We donât have the firepower to defeat the Navy,â he said to the others, âbut we do have stealth on our side.â
He immediately set about maneuvering the pieces around on the map, grouping all of the smaller ones together.
âThe first thing we need is for a fleet made of the smaller ships -- the schooners, sloops, and ketches -- to carefully infiltrate the Man Oâ Wars. Send a few of our men onto each ship in disguise, so they can load their lower decks with unlit explosives.â
âThey could also easily sabotage their cannons and rudder chains, while theyâre there,â said Orion softly.
Jacob shot a halfhearted glare at Orion out the side of his eye. Clearly even if they were allies and Orion brought up a great point, the Pirate Lord of the Atlantic Ocean was still a bit resentful about the Lord of the Caribbean Seaâs relationship with his sister.
â...Right. Then I say we -- meaning you, Captain Farrier-Weasley, as the Pirate King -- warn Beckett and the Navy that weâll release Calypso, if they donât turn back and let us leave Shipwreck Cove in peace. With Jones being with them, Beckett and the Navy either should already know or will immediately find out just how dangerous that is. Make sure to bluff Beckett that Calypso has so much power that she could destroy a Man Oâ War with her little pinky, if she wanted.â
Samanthaâs face lit up as she caught on to Jacobâs idea. âOh! Then once Calypso is free and the weather starts getting bad...we can have the galleons and brigs attack the Man Oâ Wars -- â
â -- and we can blow up the explosives on board with our cannons!â finished Charlie, exchanging an excited grin with Samantha.
Merulaâs face burst into an huge smile too. âAnd itâll make it look to the Navy like Calypso has given us this supernatural power boost!â
âBrilliant!â said Bill.
âThereâd still be a 34% chance weâll lose a few ships doing that,â said McNully thoughtfully, âbut even if weâll be outgunned and out-manned, the Man Oâ Wars should be sabotaged enough that they wonât be able to attack right away. And the explosions weâd get would no doubt give those Navy officers a good scare, which might discourage them from fighting.â
Jacob nodded. âThat fleet of larger ships can then keep the Man Oâ Wars busy while Captain Farrier-Weasley and I sail the Revolution out to confront the Flying Dutchman. The Revolutionâs probably the only ship we have thatâs fast enough to compete with the Dutchman in a sea battle.â
âAnd weâll need to overpower Jones, if we want to get close enough to Beckett,â said Jules, her dark eyes hard with determination.
âJones is the Queen in this chess match,â agreed McNully. âHeâs the most powerful piece on the board, so if we can topple him, weâll have a much better chance. If we can then corner the King -- namely, Beckett -- we could use that leverage to win the whole thing.â
Bill and Charlie exchanged a look. Then the elder Weasley spoke up.
â...The planâs great, Jacob -- but thereâs a problem. Captain Hopper said that most of you lot were never soldiers. Thereâs a lot of training that you have to go through before going out to sea with the British Navy, and thereâs just as much protocol you have to follow while youâre there. If one of our men makes a wrong move and gets caught, it could blow the whole ruse.â
âThen maybe we should go, Bill,â said Charlie. âWe know the way things work -- weâd be able to blend in -- â
âNot with that hair, you wonât,â said Merula dully.
âFace Paint is here at the Cove,â pointed out Skye. âThey could fix that -- â
Orion shook his head. âIâm afraid itâs still too risky. The Admiral indicated that Percy Weasley is also on board one of those ships. As much as I donât think heâd ever wish to harm you, I donât believe one could fool oneâs family that long. And judging by how your last meeting ended,â he glanced at Charlie and Bill solemnly, âone cannot be certain he would choose family loyalty over what he believes is morally right.â
âYeah, I wager thereâs only a 35% chance he wouldnât try to stop you two, if he saw you,â said McNully with an apologetic look at the Weasley brothers. âThough there is a 25% chance you might collide with Carey Weasley instead, and he could give you a hand...but I donât think thatâs a gamble we should take.â
Ellieâs lips twisted into a frown. âStill...First Mate Weasleyâs got a point. Itâd be probably best to send someone with the Artemis and the other small ships who already knows how to fit in with the British Navy.â
âIf only Captain Moody were still here,â mumbled Barnaby sadly. âHe was in the Navy for a long time, before becoming our captain...â
Charlie offered Barnaby a sympathetic look. Jae, however, looked rather thoughtful.
â...I do have...one contact that could be helpful.â
Everyone turned to look at him.
âHeâs a bit of a loose cannon,â said Jae, âtoo impulsive for his own good and bull-headed as all Hell...kind of stupid, really. But he was in the Navy once, and heâs pretty good at working in secrecy. I work with him most often whenever thereâs news of the East India Trading Company, since heâs got a contact whoâs related to one of their most prominent merchants...â
Merulaâs eyebrows furrowed. â...Wait a minute. Youâre not suggesting Copper?â
Charlie and Jules both blinked.
âBehemoth Ben Copper?â said Jules in surprise. âThe pirate who took out all three masts on an Italian frigate with one cannonball?â
âThatâd be him,â said Arjun, and like Merula, he looked a bit skeptical. âJae, Iâm not sure. I donât mean anything against Ben and all, but...well...itâs like you said, heâs a bit of a loose cannon. Ever since he mutinied against his captain, heâs just gotten more and more reckless -- leaving his crew abruptly with no explanation, rearranging his shipâs route on the fly...â
âHeâs been acting weird,â agreed Aishwarya.
âSounds like heâs the perfect choice, then!â
Everyone turned to look at Skye in bewilderment. Contrary to everyone elseâs reactions, however, she looked perfectly undaunted, her lips curled up in a perfectly fearless, white smirk.
âFrom the sound of things, Iâd wager Copperâs caught the same type of âweirdâ that Orionâs had these last few months,â said Skye, shooting a significant look in her captainâs direction.
âAnd I reckon that kind of âweirdâ would boost Copperâs motivation to help us by a good 63%,â said McNully very coolly from Orionâs other side.
Orion tried to feign a mild, patient expression as he bowed his head and avoided his crewmatesâ amused looks, but he could not obscure the rosy color that was rising up into his cheeks.
âThat settles it, then,â said Bill. âLetâs talk to him.â
Benjamin âBehemoth Benâ Copper did indeed boast an impressive height, being as tall as Bill with a scruffy blond beard almost as long as Jacobâs, a piece cut out of his left ear, and plenty of scars up and down his arms and along the base of his neck. He also came across as rather unpleasant, on first meeting. Although Jules had decided Orion and the Artemis would lead this smaller fleet in their mission, Ben seemed very skeptical of Orion from the off-set and was a bit forceful in trying to assert himself.
âFor this mission, may us look to our friends, the cuttlefish, for guidance,â Orion said calmly as he addressed the small team of Navy veteran pirates theyâd managed to assemble. âThey change their appearance and attitude to blend into their environment, so as to evade the dangerous predators that might hunt them...and so too shall we.â
âThe Navy isnât that dangerous,â said Ben rather coldly.
Everyone turned to look at the much taller man, who was leaning against the back wall with his arms crossed.
Orion regarded him with patience, his hands clasping in front of him. âNot as dangerous as theyâd like us to believe, true...but they do still out-gun us quite a bit.â
âThatâd be more of a threat if half their new recruits werenât so scared of the sound of gunfire that they all shut their eyes and canât aim properly,â said Ben. âItâs not like most of those men have even seen combat like this, since Englandâs no longer at War.â
Orion didnât respond, so Ben got up off the wall and strode over to look at him properly.
âExplain to me why we donât just take down all of the ships ourselves, once weâre on board? We can more than take those lily-livered cowards...â
âWeâre not doing that because itâs not the plan we agreed on, Copper,â Skye snapped.Â
âSkye,â Orion said in a quelling voice without removing his gaze from Ben.
âTheyâd never expect anyone to actually try attacking them head-on, so the element of surprise will still be there,â Ben plowed on, his brown eyes flashing with righteousness. âI say we just take all of their sailors out, one by one, while that pig Cutler Beckett is too busy gloating to take notice.â
Orion raised his eyebrows. ââTake them out?â Oh, no. No, Iâm afraid that wonât do.â
âYouâre afraid of the ships and their firepower -- but the men on those ships are vulnerable,â Ben said sharply.
âAll the more reason to not hurt them more than we have to,â said Orion. âIf the Navyâs ships are damaged, most of the sailors on board will still have the time to abandon ship and leave the battle with their lives.â
âThose sailors mean to kill us -- to arrest and hang the ones we love and anyone whoâs ever helped us -- â
âNot all of them,â said Orion, and his patient voice for the first time dipped low into his throat and echoed with some edge. âAnd because not all of them seek to destroy us and the ones we love, we have more than enough reason to not destroy them ourselves. The ships are what we fear, as you said -- they are our enemy, not the men on board -- and without that weapon of theirs, those sailors will be unable to inflict the damage we fear.â
Benâs brown eyes bore into Orionâs very critically. Then, exhaling through his nose in a short huff, he reluctantly nodded and stepped back.
Orion turned to Face Paint. âWeâll need to make sure all of our men look like they belong among the Navyâs ranks.â
Face Paint grinned. âDonât worry! Iâve got this.â
With some guidance from the ex-veterans on the Navyâs usual dress code, Face Paint got to work covering up scars with make-up and dressing the team accordingly. Fortunately, unlike the British army, Navy soldiers generally had more freedom in how they dressed, so long as their clothes were neat and conservative. Once Face Paint was finished, Orion had a team of about eleven men who looked as out of place on Shipwreck Cove as he himself had looked on the streets of Port Royal.
Before Orion left with the Artemis and the rest of the fleet of small ships, however, Jacob rather sharply stepped in front of him and insisted on speaking to him in private. Skye and McNully looked notably concerned, but Orion agreed, and the two stepped aside so no one else could hear them.
âDonât think I donât know why youâre doing this,â Jacob murmured.
Orion raised his eyebrows, even though his expression remained grimly unreadable. âIt was your plan, to send the smaller ships to infiltrate the Navyâs Man Oâ Wars.â
âI was not including you when I said that!â snapped Jacob.
He took an aggressive step forward, right into Orionâs personal bubble.
âI know why youâre doing it, Amari, and itâs not just because Captain Farrier-Weasley asked you to be in charge of that mission,â he said in a very low snarl, rather like that of a territorial dog.
Orionâs eyes grew a little smaller, but remained too murky to read properly. âI daresay my reasoning is the same as why you arranged it so that you would be on the ship facing off against the Flying Dutchman.â
âDo not compare my motives with yours!â said Jacob fiercely, as his skull-like eyes flared like flames. âI donât care what you feel for my Wyn -- you could never understand what she means to me! I would and will do anything I have to in order to protect her -- â
âI know,â Orion cut Jacob off as calmly as he could. âI could never understand the bond you two share.â
His dark eyes flickered with a strange emotion.
â...But...I do understand what a beacon she is -- how, like a candle, she can light up a room enough to comfort you, when youâre most frightened. How the soft, warm light she gives off is for you alone...how the embers she leaves behind burn long after her light has left you. How sheâll...drain herself of whatever strength she has...just to make sure you donât despair.â
Something cracked in Jacobâs eyes, betraying genuine vulnerability. A vein pulsed in his jaw and his hands clenched into fists at his sides.
Orion clasped his hands in front of him, regarding Jacob with a grim, sad expression.
âCare --...your sister...is a truly remarkable woman. She always has been, from the day I ended up on your doorstep back in Port Royal all those years ago. I canât say for sure that Iâve loved her since then, but...when we found each other again, I realized that the freedom I have on the high seas is superficial at best...for I wasnât free to stay with her...no more than sheâs free to follow me. If she stays with Cutler Beckett...if she ends up impressed into service on the Flying Dutchman...â
Jacobâs fists clenched tighter and started to shake. Orionâs eyes rippled with pain and anxiety as he closed them.
âI canât do nothing while Carewyn loses what little freedom she has left,â the taller captain burst out before he could stop himself. âHowever cruel Jones is in the legends Iâve heard, I know first-hand Cutler Beckett is a crueler master than he could ever be.â
He ran his pointer and middle finger alongside the inside of his wrist, where the âPâ brand shone a tense white on his tanned skin. He breathed in and out through his nose slowly to try to calm his heart rate, before he opened his eyes to look back at Jacob.
â...I know our methods are different, but our goal is the same. Although I hope you succeed in overcoming Jones and force him to release her...Iâm sure you understand why I have to take measures in case you donât.â
Jacobâs eyes narrowed upon Orionâs face, but for the first time, there was confusion muddled with the distrust.
âI already told you that Jones wonât care if my Wyn gets married and takes on another name,â he said quietly. âHe said sheâd still be considered a Cromwell.â
Orionâs dark eyes softened sadly. âI know.â
Jacobâs eyes scrunched up further. Then they widened as he thought of something he hadnât before. The thought made his face go very white.
âYou...â
Orion did not respond, but Jacob knew heâd figured out what Orion was thinking. It made his fists shake at his sides and his pupils narrow to slits.
âHeâs...truly that selfless?â
Jacob didnât want to believe it. He couldnât believe that this man loved his sister that much.
Despite himself, he couldnât help but lash out.
â...I do not give my blessing to this! I donât care what sincere affect you dance around with, I will never trust you with my Wynâs heart, Amari! You could never deserve my sister!â
But Orionâs features merely prickled with the hints of a smile. "I know.â
Jacob gave an aggravated sigh, throwing his hand up in a violent smack at the air, as he threw his head back and rolled his eyes up in the direction of the ceiling.
He wanted to hate this man so much, but it was proving difficult when he wouldnât rise to anything he said. He wanted him to fight back, to get mad -- then he could feel justified in protecting Carewyn from him...
But in truth, Jacob knew -- this man wasnât someone to protect Carewyn from. Truthfully...he knew this man would likely do just as much to protect Carewyn as he would...
Jacobâs hollowed-out eyes ran over Orionâs face, narrowing critically. Then, at last, he said,
â...You were the boy, werenât you? The one Wyn hid under her floorboards.â
Orionâs eyes flickered with fondness and he inclined his head in a small nod. Jacob inhaled slowly through his nose and then exhaled very heavily.
âI will stop Jones,â he said very lowly. âSo your 'measuresâ wonât be necessary.â
With this, Carewynâs brother turned on his heel and strode away, his black boots clapping against the cobblestones as he went.
As the pirates set their plan into motion, Carewyn herself was finishing up business on the Flying Dutchman. She was meant to remain on the HMS Lion with Beckett for the battle, but she insisted on speaking to all of her men on the ship and leaving proper instruction before departing. After all, the Admiral argued, even if Rakepick was staying on board, she was not a Naval officer, nor was she their commanding officer. It also was the excuse Carewyn needed to speak to Davy Jones privately.
Jones looked to be in a fairer mood than sheâd seen him last. Carewyn wasnât sure for the reason for it, but she hoped it wasnât in response to the impending battle. Regardless of how Jones felt about the pirates and Shipwreck Cove, she dreaded the thought of anyone actually anticipating the battle. Instead, however, she reassured Jones that she would pass along whatever intelligence she gathered about where Rakepick had hidden his heart.
âI know Rakepick said she was out for herself, but there are only so many places she couldâve hidden it,â she said. âPort Royal is out of the question: it couldnât be used as any sort of leverage there. So she either one, was lying and has it close by somewhere on the Dutchman...or two, Beckett does know where it is, but Rakepick plans to backstab him.â
âI suspect the former,â said Jones lowly, his dark eyes narrowing as he shot a glance out the stained-glass window of the cabin. âI can feel my heartâs presence, so it must be close.â
Carewyn inclined her head slightly. âI see. In that case, you might be able to retrieve it yourself. Iâm sorry I canât be of further help.â
She paused. Then, taking a deep breath, she spoke again.
âCaptain Jones, time is not on our side...but somethingâs been bothering me. When I first agreed to help you, you knew my real name, without me having told you. You said that was because you know everyoneâs true name, but...â
She considered him warily.
â...Itâs also because...you know my older brother...donât you?â
Jonesâs eyes narrowed. He considered her for a long moment, before he gave a clipped nod.
â...Aye. I know him.â
Carewynâs heart sank. âThen Rakepick was right -- Jacob did make a deal with Jones. That must be why Orion said Jacob âwould be disappointedâ -- â
â...What does he owe you?â
Jones, for the first time, looked almost evasive. He turned away, casting his eyes to the opposite wall as he took a few plodding steps away.
Carewyn watched him move, her arms which had been folded behind her back slackening at her sides.
âCaptain Jones, please,â she said, and some desperation echoed in her voice despite her best efforts, âI already might not have enough power to protect him from Beckett, I have to know what debt he might have with you.â
Jones was quiet for a moment longer. When he finally spoke again, his voice was very low, reluctant...even regretful.
â...The price...was a lifetime of service, from a member of his family.â
Carewynâs eyes widened.
âA lifetime of service...?â
Jacobâs intense, anxious reaction to the death of Charles and Blaise suddenly made sense.
âHe mustâve meant to give one of them to Jones,â Carewynâs mind raced. âCould he really have agreed to something like that -- enslave Grandfather or Blaise to Jones?â
Unfortunately it didnât sound completely out-of-character for Jacob -- for as much as sheâd hated Charles Cromwell and resented Blaise, Carewyn knew her feelings paled in the face of Jacobâs. Not only had he been older and thus forced to do more of their dirty work, but heâd also always loathed how much they hurt Carewyn when they were young, both to keep him in line and in a cruel attempt to âtoughen her up.â
But now...now Blaise and Charles were dead. All of the Cromwells -- Jacobâs family -- were dead...except for...
Carewynâs face was very white. Her lips came together and she bowed her head, casting her eyes into shadow.
â...I see,â she whispered, her voice shakier than sheâd intended.
âThis is why Orion and Jacob want me off the Dutchman. Because Iâm the only one who can fill Jacobâs debt.â
Jones glanced over his shoulder, his dark eye oddly ashamed.
âHe did it out of love for you,â he said very quietly. âI confess, before we met, Iâd seen irony in the situation. Now...I wish I could excuse the debt, but...â
Jones swallowed, and the tentacles of his beard gave a series of low pops.
â...Magical contracts...are not so easily broken. Once someone is marked with the Black Spot, the terms will be met, whether I want them to be or not. Fate will maneuver itself in such a way that you end up as part of my crew, even if I actively decide not to take you. As long as your brother and I both live...the terms are etched in stone.â
Jones then strode back over, fixing Carewyn with a solemn eye.
âUnless...you wanted to make a deal yourself? One soul could be comparable to another.â
Carewyn closed her eyes and considered this. After a long moment, she swallowed, and shook her head.
âThatâs not something I can give you,â she whispered.
Jonesâs eyes grew a little smaller as he faced the door. âI thought you might say that.â
He paused. His claw clicked together at his side.
âI...lament that a noble soul like yours is doomed to remain with me,â he murmured. âI will do my best to take care of you, as part of my crew.â
With another set of plodding steps, Jones walked over to the door of the cabin, opened it, and left.
Carewynâs knees buckled out from under her. She collapsed onto the bench in front of the massive organ, staring down at her own booted feet without even seeing them.
She couldnât thrust this burden on anyone else. How could she? No matter who they were...no one deserved to live their life in servitude. Carewyn knew she would never be able to live with herself, doing something so cruel...but...
It...it wasnât fair! It wasnât fair! Sheâd already had to resign herself to the knowledge that she couldnât shield the others from Beckett -- sheâd already had to resign herself to staying under Beckettâs foot. Not only was she helpless in helping the ones she loved escape Beckett...but now...once she was a member of Jonesâs crew...she would likely never see any of them again. Sheâd never be able to make that world that they deserved -- a world where they could live free of the fear of being captured and hanged...a world where they could live and chase their dreams in peace.
Sheâd never see Orion again. Sheâd never see Jacob again. Sheâd never see Bill again. Sheâd never see Charlie again. Sheâd never see Jules or Percy again.
Carewyn took a sharp intake of breath, trying to contain her emotions, but it was no use. Her hands flew to her face, clutching desperately, as she tried in vain to suffocate the tears spilling out of her eyes and the sobs erupting out of her throat.
Little did Carewyn know that a red-haired woman much taller than her had been beside the window of the captainâs cabin and had heard the entire conversation.
Under the cover of the fog that swept in that night, Orionâs team of Navy veteran pirates split up and stowed away aboard the Navyâs ships, each carrying one of the hundred black barrels of highly explosive black powder Jae had prepared for them. They would then be able to fetch more from one of the many sloops, ketches, and schooners floating among the armada the rest of the night.
As luck would have it, Ben boarded a ship that turned out to be the HMS Lion itself. He was glad of it, as he was determined to make sure that Beckett could never target anyone else again. Unfortunately, as soon as Ben arrived on board the ship, he was immediately uneasy. No one had spotted him arrive, but this ship wasnât like any of the ships heâd seen during his time with the Navy. Everything was so unusually clean and precise and brand new, as if none of it had been touched -- and stranger still, all of the sailors, from their perfectly polished gold-buckled shoes to their blue and white uniforms to their gold-trimmed black tricorn hats, looked as identical as a set of dolls.
Little did Ben know that Cutler Beckett had higher standards of uniformity for the ship he was on than he did any of the other ships in his armada -- and so, even perfectly disguised as an ordinary sailor, Ben stood out like a sore thumb.
âYou there!â said one of the lieutenants, upon spotting Ben on the staircase down to the lower decks. âWhereâs your uniform, sailor?â
Ben faltered. âUniform? Regular sailors donât wear -- â
He immediately put down the barrel heâd been carrying and turned around, putting on his strongest face as he stood up perfectly straight and saluted.
â...Iâm only a new recruit, sir. I have no rank.â
âAll sailors on the HMS Lion were given a custom uniform, when first they were selected by Lord Beckett,â snapped the lieutenant, his black eyes narrowing suspiciously upon the much taller man. âI ask you again -- where is yours?â
Ben immediately guessed that heâd made a huge mistake. Knowing that if he didnât do something drastic, heâd blow the whole operation, his hand slid down to the pistol in his belt. Did he dare silence the man by force? Would that not alert the rest of the ship?
âWhatâs going on here?â
Another officer -- this one with a ginger red ponytail and almond-shaped blue eyes -- came down from the helm and over to the two men.
âA-Admiral Weasley!â said the lieutenant, straightening up immediately.
âAdmiral?â thought Ben. âThen this is Carey Weasley?â
His brown eyes narrowed upon the frame of the Navyâs greatest hero.
'...Heâs so...tiny.â
Carewyn looked from the lieutenant to Ben, her blue eyes narrowing.
âAh, I suppose Captain Weasleyâs sent over another new recruit,â she said smoothly. âWhere is this manâs uniform, Lieutenant?â
âThat -- I just asked that, sir,â the lieutenant stumbled over his words.
âRespectfully, I hope,â said Carewyn rather pointedly.
âThat -- well -- I merely thought it was suspicious. We normally are all given uniforms, prior to boarding -- I hadnât known that Captain Weasley was sending over any...â
The lieutenant looked a bit sheepish. It was remarkable how he looked and sounded so much more boyish around the Admiral, compared to how harsh and suspicious heâd sounded when he addressed Ben.
âNo matter, Lieutenant,â said Carewyn, giving the young man a soft smile. âYou thought of the safety of our ship and crew. Thatâs the right instinct to have, despite the circumstances.â
She turned to Ben, her eyes becoming a bit more solemn.
âWhatâs your name, sailor?â
âCooper, sir,â Ben said at once, giving a salute. âGordon Cooper.â
âWell, Mr. Cooper, youâd best come with me, before Lord Beckett sees you out of uniform. He likes his flag ship run just so.â
And so Ben reluctantly followed the Admiral down to the shipâs lower level and into the cargo hold. She fetched him a blue and white Navy uniform, but rather than just leaving Ben to put it on himself, she insisted on helping him put it on properly.
âI told you, Lord Beckett likes things just so,â she said. âI will not have any sailor under my command end up on the wrong side of him.â
âI can put on a bloody shirt,â Ben said before he could stop himself.
âSee that you do, then,â said Carewyn very coolly.
Ben watched, perfectly bewildered, as the Admiral hung the blue coat sheâd set aside for him off of a nail sticking out of one of the beams of the ship and smoothed the wrinkles out of it.
With a dull snort, he pulled the faded red shirt and brown trousers Face Paint had dressed him in up over his head and switched it out for the white Navy breeches, stockings, and shirt heâd been given. He tried to keep his back to Carewyn, so as to obscure the scars on his upper chest and arms.
As he changed, Ben suddenly realized he heard a soft, husky voice humming a tune in the back of their throat.
âNow some have died, and some are alive...and others...sail on the sea...â
Ben straightened up sharply.
â...With the keys to the cage and the Devil to pay,â he echoed, âwe lay to Fiddlerâs Green.â
He turned around to look at Carewyn, who still had her back to him.
âSo you are allied with us,â he said under his breath.
Carewyn glanced over her shoulder, raising an eyebrow. ââSo?â You sound like someone already told you that, previously.â
âTwo people, actually,â Ben corrected her, crossing his arms. âOrion Amari, for one. The other...â
He glanced off to the side absently, his brown eyes growing a bit mistier at the thought.
â...She...has family who works for the East India Trading Company. While one of their ships was docked in Port Royal, sheâd spoken to some of the prisoners awaiting execution...and though most of them were no state to talk, the ones who were expressed their admiration for Carey Weasley -- how he was the only person on the Dutchman who showed them any kindness.â
The thought of Wendyâs face as she described what the prisoners had told her made Benâs heart clench.Â
â...That kind of decency...was something I thought the Navy lost long ago.â
Carewynâs eyes grew a little smaller and grimmer as they fell down onto Benâs shoulder.
âIâm afraid it has, for the most part,â she said softly, âbut only because of those currently in command. Our men are still good men...just misguided.â
Ben couldnât keep the disbelieving, resentful glare from his face. He strode past Carewyn to fetch the blue coat, but the Admiral bustled in front of him, fetched a gold-buttoned white vest, and set about slipping it over Benâs shirt.
âHere -- youâll need this, first.â
Benâs mouth dropped open in bewilderment and irritation.
âWha -- oh, come on, Iâm not some little lost lamb!â
âDefinitely not,â said Carewyn dryly. âYouâre anything but âlittle.ââ
She started buttoning up Benâs vest. The pirate gave an aggravated groan.
âSeriously? Ugh...will you knock it off? Youâre acting like my mother -- â
âWell, youâre acting like a child, so I reckon thatâs appropriate,â Carewyn shot back. She then added a bit more solemnly, âLook, I canât help Orion, Bill, and the others while Iâm stuck here...but I can help you help them. So thatâs what I intend to do, whether you like it or not.â
Benâs face darkened with an embarrassed flush as he looked away, shooting daggers into the far corner with his eyes, while Carewyn finished buttoning up his vest.
âI should probably help you trim your beard too,â said Carewyn absently. âNavy men donât wear beards much these days, even when theyâre not officers...â
âI donât need you to trim my beard,â Ben said grumpily. âI can shave myself.â
âOh, you donât believe in the old superstition, then. Good...Iâve had to shave some of my menâs faces for them, so that Beckett wouldnât give them a hard time for looking scruffy...â
Ah, then it was about reassuring the men who were too superstitious to shave on board so they could still follow Beckettâs dress code, more than simple smothering. That made Ben feel a bit better.
â...Hm, well...I suppose I have been meaning to cut it a bit anyway...â
Once Carewyn had finished buttoning up Benâs vest, she adjusted his collar.
âWhen did you leave the Navy?â she asked without looking at his face.
Ben considered her for a moment before answering.
â...Four years ago. Iâd gone to sea to try to rise above my station...to earn enough money that I could...well...improve my prospects. But I ended up on board a ship with a captain who sacrificed the lives of his own men, not to protect the innocent, but to protect a ship he held financial stock in. A ship owned by Cutler Beckett, transporting gold, spices, ivory, and slaves to the colonies.â
Carewyn was immediately reminded of Orion. âSo you rebelled.â
âNot right away,â Ben corrected. âI tried to have the captain court-marshalled first. But the Navy only gave him a light talking-to and left it at that. They didnât remove him from service or strip him of his rank, or even publicly reprimand him -- he was allowed to just go about his business like before. And worse, he knew I was the one whoâd reported him -- so he ended up retaliating against me, since he was still my commanding officer. I, well...eventually I just got fed up -- so I stopped cowering and fought back.â
Carewynâs light blue eyes narrowed. âI see. ...You did the right thing.â
Benâs face seemed to soften slightly. â...Thanks. It hasnât always felt like the right thing.â
âSometimes it doesnât.â
Carewyn fetched the blue coat and helped Ben put it on. This time, he didnât put up as much of a fuss, even though he considered Carewyn with a more critical, solemn expression.
âWhy havenât you fought back against Beckett?â he asked lowly. âYou know what heâs doing is wrong.â
âIf I were to fight now, Iâd lose,â said Carewyn, âand if I lose, then the ones I love will be in more danger than ever.â
âMy future is already out of my reach. My freedom is already out of reach. If anything happened to them...Iâd lose the best part of myself.â
â... I need to wait for the right moments where I can actually make a difference...like this one, for instance,â she added with a slight smile.
Benâs eyes grew a little smaller as he studied her face.
â...Itâs hard for you to stay silent, isnât it?â
Carewyn didnât respond, but her eyes squinted a bit too, rippling with a dark emotion as she yanked a loose thread free of Benâs coat and adjusted the buttons.
âThere,â she said at last. âDonât forget your hat, when youâre out on deck.â
She handed a gold-trimmed black tricorn hat to him, but Ben didnât put it on, instead holding it loose at his side.
âI wonât be on deck long,â he said. âIâll be here below deck most of the time...Iâll be gone by dawn.â
Carewyn blinked. Then her whole face seemed to light up in realization.
â...Sabotage,â she whispered. Her almond-shaped blue eyes were almost over-bright. âBlack Jack Roberts planned this, didnât he?â
Ben was startled. âUh...yeah, he did.â
âOh, thatâs just like Jacob! Heâs always been brilliant...â
Carewynâs eyes gleamed with warm, intense pride and fondness as she cast her gaze aside.
Ben looked at Carewyn curiously. â...You know Black Jack?â
Carewyn beamed. âOh, aye -- we go way back.â
âHow far back?â
âWe grew up together.â
âI donât need to explain how weâre related,â thought Carewyn. âIf Orion didnât feel the need to tell him my real name, I donât have to...itâs not exactly necessary information.â
Carewynâs response, however, sparked an interesting reaction from Ben. Almost instantly, his hard, overly serious expression had become much softer and warmer, betraying a genuine smile.
âReally...â
The faintest ghost of a laugh seemed to fall from his lips as he bowed his head, his eyes drifting down to the ground. Carewyn smiled slightly in return.
âNow then, Mr. Cooper...Iâll leave you to your work. The barracks are on the lower deck on the starboard side of the ship,â she nodded to the the hallway behind them, âand the officersâ quarters are just up the stairs from there. The walls are thin and most of the officers will be up and about doing nightly rounds, so be careful not to make too much noise. If they catch you âout of bed,â do as they say and pretend to go to your bunk -- you can always use the shortcut that goes through the spirit room on the far right wall to get back out into the hallway without going out the way you came. When youâre up on deck, avoid the windows by the captainâs cabin at all cost -- Beckett can be up when you least expect it, and if he sees any movement outside his windows, he might see fit to investigate. Iâll try to keep the other officers occupied at the helm as much as I can, so they donât notice you.â
Ben picked up his barrel again with a nod. âThank you.â
Carewyn saluted him, and he returned the gesture with his arm not holding the barrel.
âBy the way,â he added, âthe nameâs Copper, not Cooper. Ben Copper.â
Carewynâs lips spread into a full smile. âNice to meet you.â
She reached out and took hold of the taller manâs shoulder, giving it an abridged squeeze.
âGodspeed...and best of luck.â
By dawn, Ben had finished his preparations and left the HMS Lion, slipping onto the Artemis so that it could sail away before the fog dissipated. Ben had been the last one to finish and return to the fleet, so Skye had expressed the (rather irritable) concern the crew felt that Ben might have gotten himself caught. Ben confessed that he wouldâve if it hadnât been for the Admiral, and told them what had happened. Orion hadnât said a word or drawn any attention to himself during the entire recounting, so Ben couldnât have taken into account how the captain turned his focus up to the large, gold-trimmed Navy ship as they sailed away from it. Neither he nor McNully also never heard Orion pull one of his crew members aside and give him one of his gold earrings, explicitly instructing him to deliver it to Jules.
âSheâll need it, for the unbinding ceremony,â he said.
At dawn, the two Navies -- Royal and Pirate -- assembled for war. All of the Britiwhs Navyâs ships got into position, completely unaware of the trap that lay under their decks. The fleet of the piratesâ galleons and brigs -- including the Phoenix, Blackbird, Naga, and Treasure -- came up around the mouth of Shipwreck Cove like a wall, while the Revolution -- captained by Jules and assisted by her First Mate Bill, Jacob, and Ashe -- sailed out in front as the piratesâ flagship.
In the midst of all of this, the fleet of smaller ships were meant to retreat into the ranks of the larger ships, so as to offer support if any of the large ships were to fall and their crews needed to be rescued. But all of a sudden, the crew of the Artemis realized that Orion was nowhere to be found. Panic set in on deck as they searched for him, with crew members all frantically trying to figure out when they saw him last. It didnât take long for McNully to put together where Orion had gone.
McNully wheeled his chair across the deck, looking with anxiety up at the HMS Lion, sailing just to the right of the Flying Dutchman.
Bounding up through the ocean waves still trimmed with fog, he caught sight of Orion steering the Artemisâs jollyboat into the Navy shipâs shadow.
Skye came up to the railing too. When she caught sight of the jollyboat too, she violently grabbed hold of the railing, her eyes very wide with horror.
âWhatâs he DOING?!â
âHeâs going after the Admiral,â said McNully.
âThe Admiral?â said Ben, his eyebrows knitting together in confusion.
Skye looked beside herself with anger and concern. âNo, no, no, no, NO! Orion, you bloody dunce! Just because I said that your and Copperâs kind of âweirdâ was helpful at the meeting doesnât mean I wanted you to act on it in the middle of the goddamned battle!â
She whirled on McNully.
âWe have to stop him! Heâs going to get himself caught again -- â
âThereâs only a 21.3% chance of that,â McNully cut her off. âItâs a bit hard to be caught and stay caught when a sea battle is about to kick off. Thereâs a higher probability of him getting himself killed...â
The First Mate felt the urge to swear both out of frustration and out of anxiety, but he kept his head. He rolled his chair around to face the rest of the crew.
âSignal to the Kumiho and the rest of the fleet to continue with the retreat,â he told them. âWeâre going after him.â
