A Moment's Weakness - POTC Fanfic

Apr 06, 2007 16:55

I have written my very first "Pirates of the Caribbean" story. It's a romance featuring James and Elizabeth with minor appearences by other characters. The poetry bit is my own and it's style was inspired by the movie "A Knight's Tale". So without any further ado, here it is. Comments are welcome.

Very sweet. I loved his trepidation at waiting for the carriage to arrive. I hope this means you will write many more.

Thanks. Yes, I will write more Norribeth. In fact, I just finished doing some research for the next story and I shall start on it soon.

Awww, that was so perfect! I love how you let us picture the end of CotBP but with the RIGHT characters standing against the sky.

A lovely fic- I would swoon if James wrote me a letter like that. I like the touch at the end that he actually got to discover that her lips were soft as he had described them.

Elizabeth's last few lines were very enjoyable to read and certainly in character.

I feel sorry for James having to do reports all the time-especially when the paperwork relates to the good men he lost. :(

Two of my fav. lines:
If he had done that as his instincts had told him to, she would be looking dreamy eyed at him, something he wanted very much

It made him come across as boring and he suspected Elizabeth loathed boring with a passion.

Lovely first fic! I shall be back to read more of your stuff. :D

I'm glad you enjoyed reading this. I'm hoping to finish up "A Canopy of Green" soon so I can start a new James/Elizabeth story.

Writing reports of the death of crew members that died under your command is one of the hardest things a captain (or commodore) has to do. And if it's several that died at the same time it's even harder. I still remember the look of anguish on Matt Decker's face when he lost his crew (in a classic star trek episode - most of my "experience" with the military is from star trek, but it easily crosses over to POTC. Kirk was always commanding a tall ship in his heart anyway).

I added you to my friend's list as well... And I hope you enjoy the other stories I've written as well.

I'm very interested in reading ACofGreen but I need to find a bit of time first. He he. There are several multi-chaptered fics I've started and haven't finished. Dear me...

And yes, that would certainly be the hardest part of his job (well, aside from actually watching them die). Poor James.

Do you know if anyone has explored this concept in greater depth? I would be interested to read a fic about how James copes with that kind of stuff. (Is life never happy and easy for poor James? *sniff*)

I've never seen Star Trek but I could imagine that it would relate nicely. It's the same concept except in the future anyways. ;)

Ooo, yay- friends we be now! :D I don't write a lot of Norribeth- just so you know. I usually rant and rave about various British actors and life. Heh.

Do you mean you started writing multi-chapter fics or do you mean reading them? I try to do both, but lately I've been doing more writing than reading; mostly because I want to finish my fic as it's been hanging around long enough. I even researched crododiles yesterday as ACofG involves a croc... lol ( ... )
