Title: The Challenge

Fandom: Pirates of the Caribbean; Sparrington

Rating: NC-17

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

Anything with Jack saying HellJamieyesdon’tstop has to be made of win. *very big grin*

Good to see an update! Very sweet, the way Jack looks after James.

Ha! Thank you very much, darling, both for the praise and for making me laugh. It's good be made of win.

I really enjoy no-bullshit rescue!Jack here! This is the way I like to read him, not that cowering clown of a certain sequel. (Who was that man, and what did he do with Captain Jack Sparrow??)

I like how James has planned things out so carefully (as he would!) but still realizes the value of "thinking like Jack" - I'm sure Jack has (or will) know the value of "thinking like James" as well - this is one of the many things that make this pairing work so perfectly, imo ♥

Thank you for this!

Thank you, darling, both for your help and your compliments.

I try to keep away from the cowering clown as often as possible. I've always preferred Jack as mad and brilliant, letting people assume him (wrongly, but to his advantage) to be a coward.

James in this story has certainly kept me on my toes, by steering the story without first giving me any notice as to what directions certain conversations and bits of plot happen to be going in. It does seem to be working out, though. ;)

You have to continue this story! Will they get a happy ending?

[likeahurricane7]

Thank you, darling. The next chapter is being processed by my beta as we speak. As for the ending, I shan't spoil it fort you, because I am evil like that. ^_^
