Fic Title: Aftermath

Rating/Warning(s): R
Genre: Drama, Romance
WIP? No
Special Rec: 16/100

Why This Must Be Read: salr323 is one of the best writers around, and her Jack/Elizabeth fics are especially superb. With effective writing, pitch-perfect dialogue, moving character developments, and lovely historical insights, salr323 takes the end of At World's End and shows how Jack and Elizabeth's story's might have continued on. This is a wonderful conclusion to the trilogy, and one that I know a lot of Jack/Elizabeth fans probably hoped for.

Fic Title: Five

Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Drama
WIP? No
Special Rec: 17/100

Why This Must Be Read: Five (or, as boonies also calls it, The Five Endings They Couldn't Afford and Would Have Never Happened Anyway) is a wonderful story that gives us a glimpse as to how Calypso, Jack, Will, James and Elizabeth are faring after At World's End. The best part of this fic, naturally, is the thread of Jack/Elizabeth running through it, and the clear writing and lovely characterisations just make that even better.

Rating/Warning(s): PG-13
Genre: Drama
WIP? No
Special Rec: 18/100

Why This Must Be Read: This may have been jossed by the third movie, but it's still a gorgeous look at how things might have gone. I love the banter in this, and the way Jack and Elizabeth respond to each other as they figure out what it is that they really want. A sweet and well-written story.

Rating/Warning(s): PG
Genre: Angst, Romance
WIP? No
Special Rec: 19/100

Why This Must Be Read: Brief, but powerful, this is a lovely missing scene fic that gives us a glimpse at to what Elizabeth may have been thinking (or dreaming) at the beginning of At World's End. The writing is wonderful, the imagery beautiful, and the story as a whole is just gorgeous.

WIP? No
Special Rec: 20/100

Why This Must Be Read: There's a few stories out there that deal with Jack and Elizabeth at (a more literal) the end of the world, but this is one of the first and best. This is not a happily-ever-after for Jack and Elizabeth, but it is an ever after, and their characterisations come through wonderfully. Haunting and brilliant, this story will stay with you, after.
