Of all the things Stede had expected to hear, that was not even in the top thousand. Well, now he knows what he's apologizing for.
Saying 'what?' again? Bad idea. Exceedingly bad idea. What does he say to this? What does he do?
Never had it crossed his mind that he was capable of breaking anyone's heart, let alone Blackbeard's. For most of his life, he'd been pretty sure that nobody at all would miss him if he just disappeared. Mary certainly wouldn't have. To think that anyone would care that much about him to let him break their heart? It beggared belief. Or it would, if his best friend wasn't nearly having a breakdown in front of him because of something he'd done.
He'd cocked it all up again, and he needed to make it right.
"I'm so sorry, Ed," he says quietly. "I'm so sorry. I'd never hurt you on purpose. Please know that."
this is way funnier when you remember they're still at the muster station as friday's like "..."
