Right, vacation, he can do this. With or without Nigel's ghost following him around, he was going to relax. Stede made his excuses to the crew and walked until he couldn't hear their playtime with the black powder. Once he was at a safe distance, he striped down save for his gauzy undershirt and waded into the water. Instinctively, he drove in right before his legs twisted together and thickened into a powerful tail and his gills fluttered open to the sea like the first deep breath of clean air after hours in a stuffy room. In his youth, he stuck to the warm shallows and hidden coves, safe from his father's judgmental eyes and the strong current his mother said would drag him away. Now, older and either more confident or less afraid of death, he drug himself on his hands in the sand, deeper until he could flex his tail fully and take off. ... Stede Bonnet was well used to keeping his heritage a secret, he'd kept it successfully for decades, but now, maybe, he could finally show someone who just might care about him.
