Chapter 25: Stubborn
Jack’s Point of View
ZeldaQueen: God damn it, we know it’s Jack’s point of view! It was his point of view last time! Unless you indicate otherwise, why would it not be his point of view?
“Jack!”
ZeldaQueen: - off
I opened my eyes to find Kate hovering over me,
ZeldaQueen: Ah, so she’s a robot. I knew no human could be so obsessive and devoid of personality!
her eyes glimmering softly with concern. I bolted upright, somewhat surprised to see her sitting at my side.
ZeldaQueen: Me too. Why isn’t she still dead?
It was a dream. Jones, the murder…it was all a dream.
ZeldaQueen: CHEAPEST COP-OUT EVER!
“Honey, what is it?” she asked softly, her fingertips caressing my cheek. “You were tossing and turning.”
ZeldaQueen: I pushed the covers on the floor…couldn’t get you off my mind…the clock downstairs was striking four…excuse me, I got off track
I was finally able to catch my breath, though I could feel the cold sweat dripping from every pore of my body. “It was all a nightmare…just a dream.”
ZeldaQueen: Yes, we know. I’m still disappointed *is grumpy*
She looked at me sympathetically. “Tell me.”
ZeldaQueen: Now I’m getting flashbacks to The Room. “Tell me why you don’t like Johnny. Come now, Lisa”.
Yet again, Gethesemane, that is not a favorable comparison
I inhaled sharply, though let the breath out slowly. “Jones had come into the cabin…he told me that I still had to repay the blood debt or else he would kill you. He drew a cutlass across your throat.”
ZeldaQueen: *rolls eyes* Yeah, this isn’t a clear way for Gethesemane to wank over how much Jack lurves her the Mary Sue and for the Sue to angst over how she lurves Jack so much more!
Her hand came to rest on my shoulder. “You’ve been worried about me, haven’t you?”
ZeldaQueen: Well, dur. That’s all anyone in this fic does, even if they’re the bad guy!
“Of course I have!” I cried. “Kate, I’ve been terrified of losing you ever since Bootstrap made me a marked man.
ZeldaQueen: OH, THAT’S ALL HE WAS EVER AFRAID OF! *gnaws on hand to keep from screaming*
If I would have known that you would end up getting dragged into this with me…I would have left you in Port Royal to stay with Will and Elizabeth.”
ZeldaQueen: I love how he just pretty much patted Will and Elizabeth on the head there and acted like they’re babysitters. Fuck you, Gethesemane. They’re a million times more tough and capable than Kate The Braindead over here. Like fun they’d stay with her in Port Royal, especially if they have to save their own lives!
Actually, how does that statement even work? Jack has no idea what Kate was up to since they parted ways. Does Gethesemane think that the opening scene with the prison was supposed to be near Port Royal? If so, that’s perhaps the dumbest conclusion I’ve ever heard. No matter how you figure it, it makes no sense! Kate wasn’t with Jack when he was saved from hanging by Will, and he never dropped off Will and Elizabeth at Port Royal any other time! And he knows that Will and Elizabeth aren’t in Port Royal at this moment, so it can’t even be that he’s saying it hypothetically.
Wait…isn’t Elizabeth on the ship right now? Oh, that’s nice! Ignore her all you want, Gethesemane. It doesn’t make your self insert look any better
“You would do no such thing!” Kate exclaimed. “Did I not swear to stay by your side, Jack? I’m going to do so…even through all of this.”
ZeldaQueen: (Sue) “After all, how else can I rape canon?”
I smiled. “What would I do without you?”
ZeldaQueen: Oh I don’t know, lust after Elizabeth, show signs of caring for someone who’s not totally selfish, try to save yourself from Jones, be your lovable canon self, I can go on
“You’d be lost, my love,” Kate replied with a smile of her own as she wrapped her arms around my neck.
ZeldaQueen: *gapes* Okay, first of all, that totally is from My Inner Life. What the everloving Hell, Gethesemane???
Second of all SHE JUST SAID THAT JACK FUCKING SPARROW COULDN’T SURVIVE WITHOUT HER! JACK SPARROW, WHO HAS GONE THROUGH FAR MORE THAN THIS BINT IN THIS FIC ALONE! GAHHHHHH!!!
Wrapping my own arms around her, I dipped my head and kissed her. She returned the kiss, and we stayed in the position for several moments until we at last separated due to lack of air.
ZeldaQueen: Oh, if only they’d suffocated to death *sighs happily at the thought*
The next morning, just as dawn cast its pink and golden rays upon the crystal waters and white beaches of Isla Cruces,
ZeldaQueen: *rolls eyes at the purple prose*
Kate and I came to stand together at the helm. The crew went about the daily duties, though I knew that perhaps today was going to be anything but habitual.
ZeldaQueen: What is it with Gethesemane’s obsession with these unspecified rituals? First we had Sweeney with his “evening routine” before bed and now we have the crew with their “daily duties”. What, can’t she be bothered to spend two seconds Googling a few things that pirates do to run a ship?
I held Kate against my chest, and together we watched the crew.
ZeldaQueen: For they are King and Queen of all they survey *gags*
I was nervous…Jones would be here soon and demand reimbursement in blood. Kate was in danger as well.
ZeldaQueen: IF I HEAR ONE MORE WORD ABOUT HOW KATE IS IN SOOOO MUCH DANGER…
“Kate, if Davy Jones comes,” I told her, “I want you to go down to the bilges and stay there. You’ll be safer down there than up here on deck.”
“I’m not leaving you,” she said defiantly. “I’m staying with you.”
ZeldaQueen: Yeah, no. Still not buying that this chick is better than Elizabeth. Jack didn’t even try to hide away Elizabeth
“Please, Kate.”
ZeldaQueen: Please, please me!
“No, Jack.”
I sighed, seeing no point in arguing with her. She was as stubborn as a mule, and it was almost futile to change her mind if she had her heart set on something. This is why I loved her.
ZeldaQueen: Really? That’s why I find her incredibly annoying
“And if the beastie comes and drags down the ship? What will you do then?” I asked her.
“A captain goes down with his ship. A wife stays by her husband…for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health…until death do them part.”
ZeldaQueen: *with a twisted grin* Ohoho, keep this in mind for the end of the fic
She looked up at me then, her eyes sparkling with unshed tears. “If this ship goes down, the captain goes down with it. If the captain goes down, then I’ll go too.”
ZeldaQueen: Good. I hope you both die slowly and painfully
(Author’s Note: You guys didn’t actually think that I would kill Kate, did you?
ZeldaQueen: Unfortunately no, I didn’t not
She’s essential to my plot
ZeldaQueen: Oh yes, I know she is. She’s your self insert, and if you kill her off, you have no way to write how you are having sex with Jack and Davy Jones through her
…same thing with Davy Jones. I’m not going to kill anyone off…yet.
ZeldaQueen: We know how canon works, love. And even if it didn’t work in your favor, we all know that you’d just twist everything to keep your lust objects alive. Sweeney Todd, anyone?
Though I just figured out that this is a fatal love triangle…someone’s going to have to die.)
ZeldaQueen: OH HEY, IT WOULDN’T BE JACK GETTING EATTEN BY THE KRAKEN, WOULD IT???
