  Summary

  The last person Lucius expected to save him from uncertain death was Blackbeard's obnoxious, repressed, inexplicably hot little gremlin of a first mate. Now, trapped inside the cabin of a man who hates him, with a crazy captain running around, half a crew trying desperately to keep the ship afloat, and not even a change of pants...

  Yeah, getting out of this situation is going to take every bit of ingenuity he has left.
