I'm becoming a Sparrington fan - never thought I'd see the day. Your story and the original are perfectly in character, and make their connection absolutely believable.

"Take what you can," Norrington says finally.

"And give nothing back," Jack says, and pretends they don't both know better.

Gorgeous. Brava!

Thanks so much! This was a fun story to write.

Gorgeous work. I enjoyed dala's original story, as well as this one. A lot.

[penknife]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.

I love Jack's narrative voice in this (and the contrast of his near-constant chatter with Norrington's stubborn silence). It must be hard to pull that off so well, neither too little nor too much.

Thanks! Jack is always interesting to write, yes, especially in a serious story -- it's easy to let his tendency to ramble about absurd things run away with a story.
