*squee* And now, on to the chase!

But of course. :D Jack Sparrow has stolen something valuable. The thief must be pursued. ;)

Oh. Oh, that is beautiful.

Not only had he lost one of his most beautiful and powerful ships within two days of his promotion but also something he had guarded for almost thirty-five years - something many people would have believed he didn't even possess.

Thank you very much! Glad you liked! :)

Beta-ing this was such a pleasure!

You really have got James' voice down perfectly.
Never before had Norrington's common sense known bloodthirsty undead, cursed treasure chests and ghost ships, but now he would make their acquaintance. Naturally, he had never harboured any desire to get that experience, but he had no choice. He had his duty, his ambition and his pride.
I love these lines. Just love them.

Such a nice piece! I like James' voice--it's very consistent throughout.

This line made me giggle just a little bit: Somebody had to account for the whole sorry mess and it was perfectly clear to him who that someone was.

Hee! Such a James-thing to think.

I absoultely love the ending line; it's so appropriate, and hopeful.

Lovely work! Thank you for sharing!

*giggles* Well, James is just a man, after all. And Jack Sparrow is a nuisance. ;)
Thank you for your kind comment! It's very much appreciated! :)
