Mystische Fälle and Colline D'arbre
Mystic falls and One tree Hill? I think I died laughing.

Why ruin his own party by attending?
Just wanted to let you know I'm two paragraphs in, and hooked. And that this was the line that did it. Beautiful, just beautiful. (Uh, not limitted to that line - though I obviously like it lots. More a statement on the overall.)

This comment made me flap my hands with joy SO HARD. What an amazing compliment! ♥_♥

This is so well written, Dee! I can see the ship rolling and wrecking in my head. So. Well. Done. You!

Oh YAY! Thank you so much, Kat! *bounces*

Manners! Captain Manners!
House of Ackles - can I be a member of the House of Ackles? Please?
Misha the valet.

All awesome details I felt duty bound to point out. What a great scene you set in the beginning, I really feel at sea. Onto Part 2.

I am sorry it's taken me so long to read this - I am on holidays this week and next and so now have some time, in between trips! (Also poss for viewings....!)

Hurrah! Thank you, Pheebs (of Ackles!), for finding time to read this. I'm so excited that it's working for you. I must've watched the Disney film a dozen times with Little Bit last year when I first started writing this, and the shipwreck scene was one of my favorite parts! (Well, that and the singing crab, but I wasn't sure this fic could manage Chad in that role. *G*)

Wow! It's amazing so far!
I hope you choose for the end the Disney version, not the original. I love happy endings.

[deirdre_c]

Thank you so much! And yes, around here, happy endings are MANDATORY! :D
