This not even really shown in the movies, just hinted at breaks my heart. I am so tenderhearted that the very idea one person could hurt another in that way...just kills my soul. You presented it beautifully, right down to the first chilling words of Beckett. Right smooth down to Jack's belief in himself and his Pearl.
"Not now. Not ever." What beautiful words, kept Jack safe somehow didn't they, cost him greatly, and gave him a Nort Star, so to speak, so he knew which way to go. He must have felt so lost as a child that the Pearl became home and family to him as an adult. Good one here, now is it Friday?
