Oh gad, the day after tomorrow NaNoWriMo starts. Again. Where did the year go?

But it will have to be. Got work to be done. Novels to finish. Ideas to develop.

Wait, about the ideas, actually…

tatooine92:

In no particular order.

1. All sass, all the time.

2. Gives no shits.

3. Fabulous teal head scarf.

4. “Waste not.”

5. Eye rolls:

6. Pretty spectacular fashion sense, if a little scruffy.

7. “He’s much like meself, absent me merciful nature and sense of fair play.”

8. Openly shows affection to his pet monkey.

9. Not As Much Of As An Asshole As You Could Have Been™

10. Literally the entire dinner scene in Curse of the Black Pearl. The dramatic flair, the low, mysterious tone of voice, and the Big Reveal. Quality.

11. Basically the Scrooge McDuck of the pirate world.

12. Definitely loves the Black Pearl as much as Jack does.

13. “What am I to you?” “Treasure.”

14. This:

15. *angrily chucks apple*

16. “CALYPSOOO!!! I RELEASE YOU FROM YOUR HUMAN BONDS!!!”

17. “Not you. We named the monkey Jack.”

18. Nothing but confidence and swagger all day long.

19. Amazing hat. +2 to CHA.

20. Surprisingly chill about allying with the people who killed him.

21. King of the dramatic entrances.

22. Delightfully horrible insults.

23. Adrenaline junkie. Literally down for anything thrilling.

24. Steps into the path of the Interceptor’s falling mast and literally doesn’t care.

25. Unexpectedly lovable asshole.

Holy eff. 10K in five days. And they’re not even trash.

I’m starting to scare myself. I’ve never been this productive outside of NaNoWriMo

Alright. I confess

I started that new fic. The Pirates of the Caribbeanone.

I mean, right now it’s just one flashfic for a scene happening about ¾ down the (vaguely imagined) plot, but I can feel it. It will grow like mushrooms in a rainy autumn

And to think I liked Barbossa best, once. But seeing Jack save Will had a different effect, after all these years. And I crave Jack/oc fanfic. Crave it. Why is there nothing decent out there, like there is (and plentiful) for Barbossa? I mean, it’s Jack Sparrow!

Oh, right. Captain Jack Sparrow.

Where are you, great fanwriters? Are you all in the Sparrabeth team? I saw interesting fics there, but I just can’t separate Lizzie from Will. I can’t. The best I can do is the OT3.

Has anyone a few good recs?

For those who were happy/curious about the Snily fic, don’t worry! I’m not abandoning it. Just following a parallel path for a while
