Oh wow. This is...it's gorgeous, really, this thick layering of details and nuances and slivers of life that makes it easy to get totally lost in the story. Best of all is the progression of Elizabeth's suffocation (and Will's, too, hinted at in there), the way she suffers through the stifling obligation to stay the same way she suffers through corsets, and then the slow release of all that tension as they get closer to finding Jack and shedding everything that bound them so uncomfortably. It's subtle but sort of palpable, with a kind of urgency for even the *reader* for them to break free so that everyone can just breathe again.

I'm just sort of amazed and in love with it as a whole. Thank you so much!

Oh, thank you. I'm so glad that you liked it -- hoping that the original author enjoyed what you did with one of their babies is always the most nerve wracking part for me. This is my first time writing Pirates, so it was a pleasure to get to play in that fandom.

Thank you for the original story, and for your kind words.

Jack looks at Will slightly differently than he looks at her - not as a kindred spirit waiting to be exposed, flesh peeled and fruit eaten, but like something curious, something rare and delectable.

Please excuse me while I go and make love to this sentence.

Wait your turn. I'm first.

This entire story was beautiful, and a lovely realization of the threesome dynamic, equal among all of them. (I love it when Will is treated well in fic.)

[cherryice]

Thank you. I find that I rather like Will, so his mistreatment or handling tends to rankle. I'm glad that I managed to provide a characterization you could enjoy. *G*

[cherryice]

I'm glad you liked it. *G*

No one here is losing anything..

They don't, and that is what's so exquisite about the characterizations. A thing of beauty, and please, save me a place in line for a turn with that sentence :)

[cherryice]

Oh, thank you ever so much for reading, and for your kind words.
