dwgmMy dear friend ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hereswith compiled a list of her favorite J/E PirateFics.
ETA: In the wake of Dead Man's Chest a new section for meta and fanart have been added, and I'll be updating this list as needed.
ETA: 4/12/07 - Apparently there were a couple of old links that were non-viable and redirecting to some site that was replete with spyware, trojan horses, etc.hereswith and I offer our very sincere apologies for any problems you may have encountered. Those links (which seemed to involve "hostultra") have been changed.
ETA: 8/10/07 - No more warnings for AWE spoilers.
Last update: 8-21-10.
FIC:
berne - Something Else
circe_tigana - The Longest Night and The Seduction (at her very own piratequeen website).
Sarah (tigs) has the following stories at the wonderful RailwayShoes.net Archive -- More than Gold, Plenty o' Time, and Forks in the Road -- and more recently posted One Word on her Live Journal.
monimala's earlier J/E stories are archived on her own website, Malisita.com -- Grace, Twinkle and Twirl and Never Won Fair Lady. Some stories may have hints of slash. Her more recent work is posted on her Live Journal -- Drink Up Me 'earties, An Act of Piracy, Maiden's Head, and Like the Pieces Fit.
orange_crushed - Elegant Bones (still unfinished), and Eight Wonders of the World are both on her FF.net account. These are on Live Journal: Calypso, Fair Night and Faraway, Rising Sign, and ...And Stars are new since DMC, and She Dies an Ordinary Death and The Pearl River are set post AWE, as is Birdsong.
Guardian1 - This Is Not Her Love Story (poetry) The link goes to her FF.net account.
thenyxie - Bride of the Sea
beanside (Teesa) - The End of My Pirate Days
soappuppy - Scars (FF.net link)
erinya - Choices is long, plotty, and excellent (Note: link goes to the most complete version, on her FF.net account). Letting Her Hair Down is in the same universe, as is Blame the Moon (NC-17). ETA: Sacrifice, Frayed, Horizon, Lullaby, and Never Love Me are all spoilery for DMC. And her newest, The Testament of Skin, and Other Apocrypha isn't spoilery, but is excellent. Check out ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
erinya_fic for more great writing. An alternate way of rescuing Jack from Davy Jones' Locker: By Blood Undone - NC-17, and perfectly characterized.
paperfaces_ - Twilight is post DMC.
pandaimonia - More Rum, written for me per my request for J/E laughter.
celandineb - Lightning, a drabble written for me.
hereswith - A list of her many superb Jack and Elizabeth stories. Her new story, To the Sea is spoilery for DMC, and Maps of the World, consists of 50 single sentences (done for the 1sentence challenge) that beautifully sum up her vision of their relationship. New: On the Docks, a scene from DMC.
geek_mama_2 - A list of my J/E fics.
eurothrashed - An island snippet in two parts, 1 and 2.
whitemunim - Reflections of Grace
damoyre - Yearn
Northlight - Truly, Madly ETA: New link, to the wonderful Silverlake archive.
aztecgold - Dreams
linaerys - Freedom
heroics - An untitled story, unfinished but worth checking out - Part 1, 2, and 3. Also Language.
dollsome - Shadow and the Soul, set after key J/E encounters in both movies; Maddened and Maddening, an island fic; and Shrouded Heart, set between the films. (All links are FF.net.) ETA: This level reach of blue is not my sea - post-AWE, very beautiful and real.
glinda4thegood - Post DMC fics Her Compass and Who Is She?.
artaxastra - New to the fandom after DMC, she has written the Night's Out series, and many other wonderful stories (including the American Revolution series which is W/E/J but is not to be missed. Here's the link to the excellent eleven chapter To Trouble the Ocean, an amusing and wonderful snippet (written for me!) set the day after called Once Bitten, and she has started a sequel called Blood on the Waters. Post-AWE she has given us the magnificent Outlaws and Inlaws series: The Swan in Flight (written to fulfill erinya's request for a story featuring Teague and Elizabeth), Outlaws and Inlaws, Four Days of Advent, Cradle Tales, Dream Tides, and The Ferryman's Bride, with (hopefully) more to come -- not to be missed!
alchemistc writes about Jack remembering (except not really, although in great detail) Lizzie Swann in Forget. Post-AWE she's written Name Game, Father Knows Best, Tomorrow Sometimes Dies Too and Best Man For the job.
jacksmermaid wrote Curiosity Killed The... in reply to a J/E challenge, and Satisfied, a valentine to us all.
lizardspots wrote In For A Penny... (NC-17)
penknife wrote Time and Tide, Calculation (a remix of artaxastra's Six Nights Out From Tortuga), Nautical Maneuvers, Liar's Dice, and Thought, Word, and Deed. Her story Proper Pirates is Jack/Elizabeth with a side of slashy Jack/Norrington, but it's too superb to miss, and her very hot Navigation Series is Jack/Elizabeth/Will. All her work is worth reading, and she's written some great stuff since AWE premiered -- check out her journal.
choose2live wrote Railings, and a number of other beautiful J/E stories and drabbles, which may be found at her journal.
gedicht wrote It Is To Those I Sing.
bravenewcentury has lots of good J/E fic at her writing journal, penways. New since AWE: A Vineyard By The Sea.
writing_samsara is writing some wonderful stories with a very different background for Jack -- east Indian -- and it works beautifully. Set post AWE.
Alel wrote The Compass, The Game, The Kiss, and the Ring, very light and funny. (Link goes to her FF.net account.)
5thofnovember wrote an untitled Island conversation, and, from her Seven Deadly Sins series, Greed, a Jack/Will conversation about Elizabeth. She also wrote the angsty and beautiful Downfall..
fid_gin wrote The End, which is lovely and spoilery for the AWE trailer.
djarum99 has written lots and lots of beautiful J/E fic since DMC came out, and has continued, post-AWE.
Jillybean wrote the charming Never, Never, Never (FF.net link).
salr323 wrote Diosa Del Mar, six chapters of wary post-World's End J/E and Jack/Tia Dalma/Davy Jones backstory, lyrical and perfectly characterized; Judas Kiss, in four chapters; nine chapters of post-AWE angst and magic, The Fall of a Sparrow; the six-chapter Aftermath; the superb thirteen chapter Beyond the Far Horizon; and various one-shots, including Captain's Privilege. Not to be missed!
tanith75 wrote the possibly (hopefully!) spoilery (ETA: and ultimately A/U) Pretend, and a sequel, Infuriating Companions.
watersword wrote the haunting, wonderful Burnt Norton, which is actually W/E, J/E, and W/A.
fried_flamingo wrote the thirteen chapter breathtakingly dramatic Haven, the unbelievably hot Empress, and the intriguing Fall From Grace.
piratemistress wrote the beautiful, funny, heartbreaking Dear Jack, post-AWE epistolary perfection. She has written much other fabulous J/E as well, all found here, at her All-Fics List.
hedge_labyrinth transcribed the delightful Not a Love Letter. (FF.net link)
Evasions bygreenisbeauty is a wonderful little slice of island!fic.
Cast Your Heart To The Tides bysun_shot_sky is a beautifully poetic look at Elizabeth surviving, coping, and finally rising to freedom in the decade after AWE.
Then there are these fairly long stories that are absolutely great, but unfortunately all are still unfinished: (Links go to FF.net accounts.)
Shadow Phenix - Forty-Six and 2
Balclutha (J/E-ish, not quite but almost) - The Silence of the Deep
hedge_labyrinth is writing Noblesse Oblige, set post DMC and filled with great J/E banter.
thistle_verse wrote the beautiful and highly original The Long Way Home.
equilibrium44 wrote Binding

erinya on What a Ship Really Is, In defense of Elizabeth (as usual), and Breaking all the rules: social transgression, gender-bending, and equality in the J/E dynamic.
