Yay! I finally completed this (my pirate!Muse has been very uncooperative of late), and it works for 'hammock', 'antipathy', and the current prompt, 'captain'. Many thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Drabble: 'Mad Hatless' (Jack - G)
The Muse revisited me and I've actually written a drabble, exactly 100 words for the 'Cannon' challenge at blackpearlsails.
( It's a bit of a crossover, too... )

Drabble: 'What's in a Name?'
A double drabble for the current challenge at blackpearlsails, with thanks to hereswith for looking it over.
( Drabble theme of the week: 'Bride' )

This is a longish drabble, 350 words, set just before the beginning of tessabeth's In the First Year of their Acquaintance, an A/U Jack backstory that I've borrowed quite a few times. If you haven't read First Year, you should do so immediately, it's superb.
I started writing this a while back, for the 'Discover' and 'Shock' prompts atblackpearlsails, and finally finished it. I'm having no trouble keeping up with mini_nanowrimo this year! Many thanks to hereswith for beta reading.
( There'd been some noise that wasn’t the scurry of rats... )

Fic: 'Second Chances'
I wrote this per a request from circeniko in celandineb's 3fan_holiday challenge. Many thanks to my dear hereswith, whose mad beta skills vastly improve my stories in so many ways.
( Post-AWE, Norrington isn't quite as dead as he'd previously thought... )
