Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.

Everyone who has seen POTC: At World's End should go read inlovewithnight's Will-centric Limbo. It's gorgeous, for one. The imagery as well as the language, and I love Will's quiet acceptance of his fate because it's SO Will, even if I want to shake him for it.

There's also this old (post-DMC) but absolute goody from kieyra: The Tale of Saint William the Martyr. It's Jack and Elizabeth and Will and a mix therein. What if Elizabeth really did want Jack? Will and Elizabeth, both broken and wasted and pirates through and through. Again, the language and the dialogue make pretty, pretty. Lovely and hurty and I love it like whoa, even a year later.

And this is all I have to say about Six Apart's current layover in Stupidia: join fandom_counts. As of this writing, the comm is up to 25,000+ members, and fucking hell, it warms my cockles.

Ahhh. Huh. It's not as if Matt was allowed to substitue whatever hearthrob in there (especially when ASP was still in charge), so yeah. It doesn't make any kind of sense. Although I will say, some of ASP's pop culture references were a bit out there. My only guess is he was extremely popular at the time (this would have been around the time of POTC: Curse..., right?).

Well, I have a theory Elizabeth at least got word to him, if she didn't visit him that is, about their son since he didn't seem all that surprised at the sight of Will, Jr. standing there beside her. Once or twice wouldn't ruin it for me, because it's not as if they could really do anything. (Remember, she couldn't leave the ship even for her father, or she'd be lost.) The two of them talking across the water, ship to ship? The pining could be electric.

I suppose but surely they should've been more sensitive. Did they have to pick THAT hearttrob. Le Sigh.

I'm curious to see if they even go ahead with it, because it'll be years from now when it's released.
As I understand it, there were several scenes cut in the film which explained more about th eend. Because all the things you just mentioned had me confused, lol.
