Shall we save the rest of this extremely disturbing reunion 'til we get back to the Pearl? I know Will don't mind makin' a cake of himself, but I have a reputation to maintain.
That made me giggle! Will making a cake of himself...LOL! What a great turn of phrase and so very Jack.
And that graphic of the sword is beautiful.

I, too, really enjoy revisiting the post-CotBP world that drew us into the Pirates fandom, and I particularly love the J/E / W/E universe in which my Christmas stories are set. I'm so happy you enjoyed this one, too!

This was simply adorable. Everyone's already said everything I would have said, about the tension between Jack and Elizabeth, and her obviously successful relationship with Will-- Quite a man he turned out, eh? and the pretty sword.
Oooh, and here's something that I loved-- Lizzie's skill with a needle and her lack of patience with the craft. A beautiful little bit of characterisation!

So happy you enjoyed this! It's a world that's really fun to revisit.
Btw, I saw that you posted something at the Impverse, too, and I am so looking forward to having some time to read it!! These last few days before Christmas are so CRAZY!!
Happy Holidays!

"So Will is from home and you're propositioning me?" heh. Jack is in fine form in this fic. You always do write him well.
"...Tortuga's no place for the likes of you!"
"Nonsense! And what harm could come to me when I'm with you?"
--I must admit, I like the Pirate King!Elizabeth that she grew into in the second two movies, better than the CotBP Elizabeth, but this is perfectly in keeping with the time frame of the story, so that's all good.
"You stole away my wife, pirate," -- So Will. so cute in a bumbling, goofy kind of way. (Again, I rather like the strong, confident leader he became in the second two movies -- although he still can be bumbling and goofy ( ... )

Fun fic! And with that general happy, warm-fuzzy feeling.
"Not a good idea. Very bad idea, in fact. Like to cause a debilitating and potentially incapacitating accumulation of vile humours."
Hehehehehehe! *eg*
Thanks for that.
