the Dalaverse

Oh. My. God. I love my speakers. Achtung Baby has never sounded like this before.

Seeing "Master and Commander: the Far Side of the World" (about which I may or may not post a review later) made me crave Aubrey/Maturin fic, but it made me want to write Norrington slash. So...I have. I give you this, my first PotC fic (and probably the last, too). I very much need to see the movie again to clear up certain aspects. Also, this is a scene from the middle of the fic. Plot is: Captain Jack Sparrow's crew brings him to Will and Elizabeth in Port Royale to recover from a serious illness. They hide him for awhile, but Norrington finds him and agrees to hide him in his own household because the Turners, with Will working round-the-clock commissions and Elizabeth pregnant, are rather busy. Norrington ends up having to care for Jack, and...stuff happens. I know, I know, it's cheesy, but it's what I want to write.

I had idea idea how much I would love writing Norrington. I mean, Jack's a hoot and all, but Norrington pinged for me the second I attempted to get into his head. I can't wait to see the movie again, because I've kind of forgotten what he looks like, heh.

I'll get to see it FOUR TIMES this weekend on the (semi-)big screen, making it the movie I've seen the most times in the theater, at six viewings. Finally, finally the crown is snatched away from "Titanic." I know the little St. Mary's theater doesn't really count, but as long as I'm not watching the DVD on a computer or a player, it counts as theater viewing.

Anyway, without further ado, ( the fic. )
