Eeek! I LOVE your icon!! That's the first 'Taxes' one I've seen! I'm surprised TMF doesn't have one. She needs one. Hee. That fic has to be one of my faves, and not just because I helped BETA it.
I just wish she was encouraged enough to finish the other parts she's started. *pout* Must elbow her.
Thanks muchly for the feedback. Yes, dark indeed. Was orignially going to make it my first death!fic and couldn't follow through. I'm just happy it wasn't confusing for you.
LOL I don't know what else is in there, but someone should write about it.
I'm a big ole' (huge, even) _Taxes_ fan; however, the icon-credit goes my my dear friend wyrd_maiden, who is lightyears more creative than me :)
No, your marvelous fic wasn't confusing at all. It broke my heart in all the right places. There was something heart-wrenching about Will's lone brown eye, about Jack's broken fingers, perhaps because those very features, whole, are rather our boys' "trademarks" as it were...Jack's constantly-moving hands, Will's lovely, often-baffled puppy eyes.
And the poison...so _Romeo and Juliet_...the star-crossed lovers thing...*sigh*
I have a friend with a veritable //mane// of hair, who sat beside me in the pub one day, blithely pulling hairpin after hairpin out of her tresses. After she had assembled a small pile of them in front of us on the table, she turned to me and said, rather incredulously, "You know, I've been looking for those for days!"
Oh, I'm so glad you didn't kill off the boys. Very well written ... the underlying longing and simple realization on Jack's part is touching. I want to read the sequel.
*beams* There's just something amazing about getting a review from an author you used to read all the time (and love).
I'm very glad I found a way around killing them. I did this with another fic I'm forever working on. Instead of dying in my death fics, the boys are either cursed or turn into vampires. (spoilers much? ^_^)
Thanks so much for the feedback, luv! Speaking of longing, geeze, I need to finish and rework Sea Longing. *blush*
The sequel will hopefully be out soon, and have nothing but smut.
"Used to read?" Oh, ye wound me! *clutches chest* Or is it just because I've become so damn lazy and haven't posted anything new in a while?
Your use of prose is such fun. As I said, I like the way Jack comes to his realization and FINALLY figures out something needs to be said/done about it.
Paris begs to be poked. Paris DEMANDS to be poked. Jack would like to do the poking, honestly. But only for a little while, since Will would probably yell if he suggested a Sparrow Sandwich.
Eh, heh. Sorry. I haven't been actively searching for fics, as much as I LOVE POTC slash (J/W in particular). Not too many peeps are as enthused about it as they used to be and it's hard to find new stuff
( ... )
Hee hee! Thank you! Thanks so very much for the feedback. Yes, I always find loopholes when it comes to writing death fics. I have yet to truly kill off a character. I'm too wimpy.
I love these guys too much. As for the sequel, hopefully just smut.

PS Your icon made me laugh my ass off and then fall in love with it. *evil grin* What? No lemons? ^^
See, when I write the death fics, I just kill 'em. O.o... often when I didn't mean to in the first place... but when was the last time my characters payed me any mind?
Re: PS: Innit fun? Well, for one lime is shorter, for two it's greener, for three it's what's more famously used, and for four 'suck lemon' is far too suggestive to be prancing around Slashdom At Large.
Yes, well, I'm too much of a romantic, sensitive ditz to ever accomplish a true death fic. I just CAN'T kill them. I keep trying to challenge myself, but no success as of yet. Poo.
Bad characters! BAD!
*snickers* Good argument. It gives me an urge to suck on something limey. Hee. *complete pushover* LOL
GAH! This was utterly amazing! So dark, so real, so horrific. True to the life of real pirates. AFF.net, is it still around? I can't ever get that site to come up any more, so I thought it gone.
Yes, AFFN is STILL around, just very difficult to get on. Here's a trick I've learned: do a yahoo search for adultfanfiction.net and the link for the main page will come up. Click on that to get in. The addy says something like adultfan.net or something.
That should work.
Thanks again for the feedback. The drabble sequel is next on my ever-long list of things to do.

Perfectly dark for my mood at the moment. Definitely need time to digest this lovely thing.
What else does that man keep in his hair???

However beautifully you wrote the prison and torment, and the 'death', I still have to admit that I was relieved to find it wasn't fact.
...yet...
Very well done.
