Hurricane Jack, by Shrift
Fandom: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN
Pairing: Jack/Will
Author on LJ:
shrift
Author Website: shrift's fan fiction
Why this must be read:
Will/Jack is honestly not a pairing I can see in the movie, and I can see most of them if I squint hard enough. It takes a very rare story to get me to enjoy the pairing, and "Hurricane Jack" is a very rare story indeed.
shrift writes in Jack's voice, which is impressive in itself, and the story is lovely and twisty and as full of parenthetical asides as Jack's speech. It's funny, plausible, and hot, and doesn't take the easy way out of dismissing or vilifying Elizabeth.
Did I mention the funny?
shrift's summary: In which Will Turner most emphatically does not avoid familiarity with pirates, Captain Jack Sparrow cheats in his infamous and fabulous fashion, vast quantities of rum lead to drunkenness and debauchery, and there are no silly nautical euphemisms for sex (so long as the barnacles don't count).
And the barnacle bit is probably the most amusing nautical euphemism that's not really a euphemism (probably) I've ever seen.
