Title: This level reach of blue is not my sea
Pairing: Jack/Elizabeth
Word Count: 2,136
Rating: PG
Summary: They sicken of the calm, who knew the storm. Elizabeth, just after At World's End.
Author's Note: I was flippin' through the super cool Dorothy Parker anthology I checked out from the library, and I came across the poem "Fair Weather," which immediately started shouting ELIZABETH SWANN, ELIZABETH SWANN! at me. Who was I to resist that kind of pressure?

( These days, the whole world turns her stomach. )

ediblestars did it! So must I!--

The Work-in-Progress Meme! When you see this, post a little weensy (hah, are we kidding? This is me here) excerpt from as many random works-in-progress as you can find lying around. Who knows? Maybe inspiration will burst forth and do something, um, inspiration-y.

( The Office. Dwight and Oscar. In which Oscar is sneaky, and Dwight has a subsequent epiphany about his relationship with Jim. )

( The Office. Kelly contemplates What Not To Wear. )

( The Office. As the summary so charmingly phrases it, 'Oscar/Angela. In The Biblical Sense.' )

( Harry Potter. Something Remus/Sirius-y and angsty and bizarre. )

( Pirates of the Caribbean. Jack/Elizabeth, immediately post-AWE, and kinda silly. )

( Pirates of the Caribbean. Post-AWE; Jack and Elizabeth and Elizabeth's son. )

( House. House/Wilson. I'm not really sure beyond there. )

( Lost. Jack's mysterious week in Otherville! )

( Lost, post-s3 finale. Poor epic seriously failed fic that attempted to explain every single mystery about Lost ever. Featuring much angsty Jack! )



And, okay, I think original stuff is going to need a post of its own. Oh, me with my zillions of abandoned stories!

Title: a far better fate
Pairing: Elizabeth/Norrington (with some subtle Jack/Elizabeth)
Spoilers: At World's End

Rating: PG
Summary: "Our destinies have been entwined, Elizabeth, but never joined." Three ways the story could have gone.
Author's Note: Part of what really got me about Elizabeth and Norrington in AWE (and man, did I get got by them) was the sense that Elizabeth finally realized the strength of Norrington's love for her and, on some level, recognized for the first time that under vastly different circumstances, she might have been happy with him. Her change of heart made that scene all the more tragic and amazing for me, so naturally, I had to play around with what-might-have-been-type fic ideas. :D


( The pirate Jack Sparrow is captured at Port Royal on the day that Elizabeth accepts Commodore Norrington's proposal. )
