Nor Silver Nor Gold by compassrose7577, rated R
Greetings! My name is
pink_bagels and I am your Pirates of the Caribbean driver for the month of June. Please place your tray tables in the upright, locked position, and ensure your seatbelts are correctly fastened. Emergency exits are at the top left hand side of your screen for Mac users, and the upper right hand corner for those on PCs. We are currently driving on laminate flooring at an altitude approximatly the height of a desk chair. Weather conditions are mixed, with warm sunshine eclipsed at intervals by the grey cover of violent ocean tempests. If you currently look out the left side passenger window, you will gain a glimpse of the pirate Jack Sparrow doing something naughty with a monkey and a banana and generally irritating both. On the right hand side, several flagships of the 18th century can be seen in the distance, accompanied by a large squid-like creature who goes by the name of Davy Jones. Since his proximity is close to the potc crack van, the afternoon lunch selection of calamari will not be served out of respect for our subjects.
We are proud to have you on board the Pirates of the Caribbean crack van, and we hope you enjoy your stay.
Fandom: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN

Why this must be read:
compassrose7577 has an incredible handle on not only Jack's character, but also how he relates to his crew. Her settings are richly conveyed, her fight scenes excellently portrayed, and all on the backdrop of a pirate ship which is not only Jack's one true love, but also the home of his extended pirate family. Getting to know these side characters so intimately and how they relate to Jack is a wonderful expansion on his character. Yes, this story has an original character, but she is also well developed, and the suspenseful UST between her and Jack is played out to an almost tortuous degree. In my opinion, this shows a great deal of restraint on the part of the author, and by the time we do get our resolution, it's a sigh of relief for all involved :P.
This compelling story takes us places within Jack's past that had only been hinted at and not explored in the films, all on a rich backdrop of silly aunts, noble pirate friends and swashbuckling fight scenes. For anyone who is a fan of crisp dialogue and a tale that whisks one away onto the open sea, this has clearly been written for *you*.
