Title: The Challenge
Fandom: Pirates of the Caribbean; Sparrington
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: I have no claim on POTC or the lovely characters who populate it, even if it seems that James Norrington has, somewhat disconcertingly, made himself quite at home in my head with no apparent plans to leave. Jack Sparrow has been dropping by at random for years, as well, which surely doesn’t help matters.
Summary: Intent upon better knowing his enemy, after a close shave wherein the commodore’s fleet nearly caught his Pearl, Jack Sparrow climbs James’ trellis, but finds that he’s underestimated the good commodore. Of course, James was unfairly being very distracting, what with the nudity and all. Cat-and-mouse games ensue.
Beta: The right honorable Porridgebird.
Warnings: Gratuitous use of a male OC, but he kind of demanded it, and James seemed to like the whole idea as well, if only because it caused Jack’s jaw to audibly hit the floor.
