Because I'm sort of compiling a gigantic list of decent, Pirates of the Caribbean fic even though I don't know if I want to. There's a lot of crap out there to sift through, especially if you tend towards, say, Norrington-centric fic (or Norrington/Elizabeth fic in particular). So here goes nothing. Link to this if you feel the need, since my other journal is f-locked.
By the Time the Sun Rises by
ashtonecks (Norrington/Elizabeth, post CotBP).
ashtonecks is also writing a Norrington/OFC multi-part fic called
Beneath Your Eyes featuring mean&emo!Norrington and an original female character who doesn't scream Mary Sue...and the promise of smut later on, hopefully. The link takes you to part one, and here are links to part
two,
three,
four,
five, and
six. It's also on
ff.net.
Spin by
chapeau_noir (Elizabeth/Norrington, Elizabeth/Will, Elizabeth/Jack).
Accountable by
nera_fiore (Norrington/the Caribbean). This stuck with me all day long. So lovely and sad.
Wreckage by
psionicknight Something out of Nothing and
A Dark Destiny Besides (Norrington/Anamaria, AU). Lovely and delish and far too short drabbles about Norrington and Anamaria.
The Admiral by
meddow (Norrington/OFC) A lovely look at the Tortuga!Norrington we lust after in DMC.
A Turner Blade by
circe_tigana (Will, Norrington/Elizabeth) I'm a sucker for "what if?" fic, as the next few recs will show. This one is so despairing, so eloquent, and so right.
It is my belief that
ash_night writes the best Norrington fic in the world, which is why there are several fics listed here. First, to continue with the "what if?" speculation, we have
The Repercussion of Jack Sparrow's Death, written in a style that they use again and again to great effect. Just amazing.
ash_night is currently writing a drabble series, which is Norrington/Elizabeth and is beautifully written. It goes:
The Cheshire Cat,
Ghost,
King of Hearts,
Trio,
Routine, and
Fire and Ice. 'Routine' is just...wibble. All can be found at
norribeth, a good Norrington/Elizabeth community.
Something more Norrington-centric that
ash_night has written is
Oh, I think we can give him one day's head start which is lovely in it's take on post-CotBP/pre-DMC!Norrington.
Now, this is more for
le_parapluie than anyone else:
Good women are few, fine women are rare, and Elizabeth is neither. I read this and knew you'd love the use of language.
In 2004, there was a Norrington-centric ficathon.
Here are all the entries, ranging from Sparrington to Norringon/Anamaria/Jack. Enjoy.

So that's what I have thus far...any additions are most welcome as I am bored.
