Drabble: 'Educating Elizabeth' (J/E, etc. - PG-13)

[dwgm]

Drabble for the 'Education' theme at blackpearlsails, with thanks to hereswith for editing.



~ Educating Elizabeth ~

A governess, several tutors, and instructors in music and dance had, at various times, been engaged by Weatherby Swann to see to his daughter’s education, but there were so many others in her life who had imparted information of far greater substance and interest. The skills of leadership she had gleaned at her father’s knee. James (unbeknownst to her father) had shown her how to use a musket. Will had patiently and lovingly taught her to handle a sword. Barbossa had given her the rudiments of navigation.

And then, there was Jack Sparrow.

“Jack,” she said, faintly, “where on earth did you learn that?”

“Mmmm. Y’don’t really want to know, love,” he murmured, half asleep already.

Perhaps not.

But she would remember.

I love how you leave the specifics of Jack's, ah, lesson up to the imagination. Brilliant. :-)

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

Thank you! The imagination is a wonderful thing. ;)

This made me smile! I love the idea of Norry secretly teaching Liz how to use a musket. And Jack's lessons? Well, one can only imagine! ;)

[the-pyratequeen.livejournal.com]

I really liked this-- and I'm not a big J/E fan in general. Good job!

[florencia7.livejournal.com]

LOL! Awesome! ^^ I loved it!!!

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I've loved J/E almost from the time I saw CotBP, though I didn't start writing it until a year later (was writing Jack/OC before that). We all have our preferences, of course, but I really appreciate that you gave this one a chance.

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

I love the idea of Norry secretly teaching Liz how to use a musket.

Me too! But someone did -- she was pretty good with that thing in CotBP. Someone needs to write that story. *g*

Thank you for reading, and letting me know you liked it!

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!

[equilibrium44.livejournal.com]

Guess you 'nailed' that aspect of Jack pretty well!

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

Glad you think so. ;)

Thank you for reading and commenting!

[veronica-rich.livejournal.com]

I like that everybody got a mention. I guess it takes a village to raise a kid after all! *G*

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

Too true. And Elizabeth's lucky to have known so many good men.

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

Ack! Forgot to say thanks for reading and commenting -- much appreciated!

[blacklilac17.livejournal.com]

Oooooh, naughty and delicious! That wonderful Jack! Loved it!

[geekmama.livejournal.com]

naughty and delicious!

That's certainly one way it can be interpreted. *G*

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for letting me know.
