Drabble: 'Foolish' (W/E)

[dwgm]

This seems a particularly apt theme for PotC fic, for some reason...



~ Foolish ~

Will had often berated himself for a fool in loving Elizabeth Swann. An orphaned blacksmith’s apprentice, aspiring to the hand of the daughter of the Governor of Port Royal? How could such a suit ever prosper? And yet, by some miracle, it had.

Fate had split them apart, leading them down paths stony with mistrust and loneliness. Those separate paths converged again, but only to fulfill a destiny that often seemed more bitter than sweet. Yet how could he regret the choices he’d made?

Elizabeth.

He was, and always would be, in love with Elizabeth Swann – and foolish with it.

Now there's a piece that does Will justice! I'd like to see that more often.

I am so happy you thought it did Will justice -- that's my goal, whenever I write him. He's a great character. Thank you for the feedback!
