Wow! Gorgeous pair of drabbles! Honestly, Jack and Elizabeth must have the most interesting "pillow talk."
"Maybe I gave up pirating for a bit. After the mutiny. Maybe lighted in Boston, took up drawing maps again. Maybe got leg-shackled, too. Only maybe she was too good for this earth. She and her son.”
Oooh! *shivers* Poor Jack, providing this is true (never a given with Jack Sparrow).
And Jack ... how many layers he has! Peel one away, and there's always a lot more beneath it! A constant mystery, to be explored and discovered! Lizzie sure has her work cut out for her! Life with Jack may not exactly be easy, but it surely is interesting (to say the least!).
Drabble 14 is classic Jack Sparrow! Hiding his rarely-glimpsed "romantic" side behind a prurient purpose (i.e., seducing Elizabeth on the island). So like him, to not admit to any perceived "weakness."
And he certainly knows how to push Lizzie's buttons, and deftly change the subject, with the mention of the rum! He'll never let her live that one down, will he? :-)
