Summary
Tortuga was both better and worse than the stories. There was filth and violence and even pirates, yes. There were also bright colors and laughing voices, interesting items for purchase and information to be gained. Here, the legal rubbed shoulders with the quasi-legal and the downright criminal in one huge, felonious sprawl of ‘live and let live’.
Or at least ‘always remember to loot the corpse’.

Summary
It's been six years since he sailed away, and he just made Halifax yesterday. Now the last of Barrett's privateers is out for revenge against all those whose greed or negligence wrecked the Antelope, and with it his life. But things are not entirely what he expected. There's a mystery to be solved, a voyage to be taken, and perhaps even a shot at something resembling a happy ending.
[EDIT: This is one of the things I most enjoyed writing, but the former title was a bit of an afterthought, and so deeply unmemorable and I grew to find it embarrassing. So I've changed it.]

Summary
Kirishima Eijirou was conscripted by the Royal Navy and served on the Sunfish with his good friend Amajiki when the Sunfish was attacked by the Frozen Fire, a well-known pirate ship. It's on the Frozen Fire that Kirishima learns the truth about pirates and privateers, and stumbles upon information about the Crimson Riot, an old fable about the pirate ship of old that stashed its treasure in several coves around the world, all with their own tricks and traps to slip through before you may set your eyes upon the chests of gold and jewels.
If he also happens to meet Captain Shouto, become enamored, and then be traded off to the Ground Zero with another Captain that's more difficult to endure, then that's what happens. Kirishima may or may not find Captain Bakugou a little bit frustrating. He may or may not also find him ridiculously hot.

Summary
She.
That was what they called her - she, and she was to be the fastest clipper in the company even before she touched water. Even as she sat on the blocks at the top of the ways, they all spoke of her speed and glory, the way she would cut the waves.
She.
Not that she knew this, having no ears, no mind; she knew only as a rock knows - it is wet when it rains, it shakes when the Earth trembles, it frosts over in the winter, and in these ways a rock might know the world, but it is not a conscious effort on the rock's part.
Nor was it on hers. She simply was - from that first day, the laying of her keel, she was, and like a rock she might be many things; a rock might be picked up, or flung in anger, it might be a weapon or a talisman, it might be carved into an idol or a trinket or a child's toy.
As a rock, was she, from that very first day - she would be many things and known by many names, but all of them, she would be.
...and they called her she.
(NaNoWriMo 2018; experimental, vaguely poetic prose following the life of a ship through her journeys and refits, accidents, etcetera, instead of a standard character-driven plot. Updates daily with the day's writings.)

Summary
It's the Imperial Year 1830, and Felix Fraldarius is part of a famed privateer crew contracted by King Dimitri. War has long since crossed the horizon, and with a stalemate drawing near, the Alliance and Kingdom join forces. With a king gone mad and an Alliance leader that has yet to show face, The Venatio spends its precious time left ransacking Imperial settlements and vessels at sea.
Sylvain Gautier is a vigilante on the run, disregarded from a wealthy merchant family who oversees the northernmost territory. Known as the Red Cardinal by those who see fit, a feathered mask and a scabbard at his side are what make up the entirety of his little possessions. When it comes clear he's been residing in The Crossroads, a black market located deep within Gautier territory, his head becomes wanted.
It's interesting how fate can bring souls together.

Summary
Bankruptcy in this age is not so pleasant. At least, not in the way Xigbar is experiencing it. Slumped over in a sweaty tavern with so much alcohol swimming in his brain he could barely think. In one hand, a crumpled final notice from his bank. In the other, a sticky cup with a drink that’s long gone dry.

Bookmarker's Notes
Derek can only imagine what this omega has suffered at the hands of Deucalion and his rapscallions. It makes Derek’s skin twist, rage boiling to the surface as his eyes catch on multiple bite marks on the lad’s neck and shoulders. Bites that didn’t bind. Bites that were only meant to subdue. To draw blood. To establish authority.
