captain hook and peter pan's shadow

okay so hear me out. I had a weird dream a few months back about hook suddenly waking up on a ship and everyone else is dead. decaying. dismembered and disassembled. for some reason, the blood on the floors is still wet. an absolute nightmare of a time. the only other person in neverland who isn't a corpse is the shadow of peter pan, who, over time, has slowly come into form as a vaguely fashionable adult since there's nothing tying it to the body of a youth that refuses to grow up (since he was originally nothing but a shadow, he will remain forever shadowless tho)

('One day, Peter decided he didn't need a shadow, that it was more fun to sneak up on people without giving them a chance to notice, and I was left to do whatever I wanted. Eventually I started to care, to feel, and from there I became what I am now.')

it was. some kind of murder mystery, where it's very clearly peter who committed the murders, but hook and the shadow go about trying to figure out the events leading up to it. as one does!
