J.L. Dexter 2007-05-13 ch 1,	abuse“The past can only hurt if the future isn’t important enough...” This is such a good point and a fine way to put to rest this little adventure. Though saddened by its end, all ends are a sort of beginning, and even if the beginning is something only in my imagination at this point, its still a good start. Speaking of which, isn't it time for you pick up your quill once again and entertain us? I think... yes. :D
molliejoy 2005-03-28 ch 1,	abuseMolls! I've been so cheated in not reading this piece! (Somehow it fell into a different folder in my inbox.) It's ab fab! I love it! Seriously- it's my favorite short stab ever. I think that it excellently captures all of your greatest writing abilities- really good description of the surrounding (but simple, not overwrought), it allows the reader to feel a great understanding of the characters, both personally and in relationship to one another and the dialog is sparse but witty and all in character! FANtastic! (“The past can only hurt if the future isn’t important enough"- is the best line! What amazing wisdom- so sad you had to learn it through experience.) Note- stop being so * yourself! You are not "limited in ability" as you say- you're a great writer, who I think, is really coming into her own. When you get ready to write your own story/book/novel using characters from your imagination/experience I think that you're going to blow a lot of people away- including yourself.
cal 2005-01-22 ch 1, anon.	abuseI'M BACK! :) & so apparently are you! :) LOL once again i was trolling through the new stories list; this time i was checking to see if any of the regular Jack & Ana fans had spotted this tale & left you the kind words you deserved. :) eyes roll in exasperation! they haven't! >:( pout perhaps they are maybe penning new chapters of their own stories?! one (meaning ME, ME, ME!) can only hope! :) ah well, the cast of the usual suspects will be here soon enough i imagine! :) maybe if you post it on the Cap'n's site that will light a fire under the girl's quills! :) LOL anyway...i'm sure you can imagine the look of confusion on my face when i read the summary & saw that there was a tweak done! i stared off into space for a minute as i was trying to remember if the tweak was there when i read this yesterday. after a bit, my sluggish brain reassured me that there was no tweak mentioned, so i decided to peek @ this again to see what was different. :) i spotted the change right away! :) shall i comment on it? LOL it's not as if you can stop me is it?! :) HAH, HAH! i did appreciate the new change seeing as it put a new light on things. i smiled with fondness when Ana was thinking that Jack's newest words of wisdom were "un-Jack-like," because that observation sounded cuter than normal because it came from Miss Ana. :) i laughed when i read that Ana was thinking that Jack wasn't unintelligent & that he was in fact the opposite. i wondered if the lady would make that observation to Jack himself. probably not because it would only serve to inflate Jack's head/ego to gargantuan porportions! :) LOL LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the last (new) sentence of that passage! the description of Jack's lips sent me & caused my brain to fritz for a bit as i was happily drooling & daydreaming about those beautiful lips! sigh i started laughing @ poor Jack again when i read that his wisdom gave Ana humorous pause. that was too cute! :) HEY! i must confess to a bit of ego...looks around sheepishly while trying to deny that her face is red as i was skimming through the tale again, i wondered if you'd read my novella yet & whether you had responded while you were tweaking it again! God! my face was flushed from both embarrasment & pleasure when i saw that you had! :) jeesh, am i pathetic or what?! :) LOL my embarrasment eased a bit when i read your note! :) i was saddened to read that your day hadn't gone well! :( i was more than a little happy to see that the novella let you know that you are appreciated & loved, even if the "real world" doesn't always let you know that! :) i was also happy to see that my confusion let you know that the wrong document had been submitted. although, i really think that the other version would've been okay too! it's like i said in the novella, the readers probably would've just chalked it up to Jack being Jack & would've moved on with the rest of the tale. i'm pretty certain that the other Jack & Ana fans aren't nearly as anal retentive or obsessed as i am! :) LOL oh! you little so & so! >:) there you went again with the insulting of the author bit! (limited abilty?! hmpf!)& that was after i had expressly warned you not to! >:( let's out an angry huff a la Ana hmm, let's see...you're definately too old for time out, so i shall sentence you to writing that second Jack & Ana epic as "punishment" for your blasphemy! :) LOL hmm, if this works, then maybe i should let you utter those completely untrue & blasphemous words! :) LOL keep up the great work & please post us more & soon! :)
cal 2005-01-21 ch 1, anon.	abuseOMG! OMG! you're still alive & writing! :) LOL what a TERRIFIC surprise! i was trolling through the new stories page & thought i was seeing things before my brain finally registered that yes, it was indeed YOU! :) YAY! WONDERFUL to have you back mate! :) you don't know how much i've missed your voice! oh! i'm gonna make myself cry! :( see, you don't even have to write to reduce me to tears! :) LOL i tell you, my heart really did speed up when i saw your name & then "Renegade"! YAY! i was so happy! :) but, alas, my Jack & Ana high came crashing down when i saw in the summary those horrible, dreaded words: "just a short one-shot." >:( man! you're absolutely keeling me! :( what a tease! :( that's like giving a starving man a glimpse of an all-you-can-eat banquet that he's not invited to! :( so, so mean! pout :) YAY! my doldrums were somewhat pushed away when i read the author's note! YAY & YAY! MORE JACK & ANA PLEASE! :) LOVED the note when it seemed as if the pirate couple has a stranglehold on the muse's neck! :) you know it's bad when even the muse can't forget about them! :) LOL i'm sure that i & the other Jack & Ana fans won't mind applying a little pressure to that stranglehold! :) LOL dontcha think that perhaps your other stuff could benefit from a break? i'm sure that the muse would see the return to Jack & Ana's world as a lovely vacation, hardly any work at all since there's so much love involved! :) maybe after the 2nd Jack & Ana epic, the muse could return to the other tales refreshed! what say you? :) 'kay, enough with the shameles begging, onto the tale! (YAY!) WOW! you haven't lost your touch! i mean that as both a writer & as the voice for Jack & Ana! :) the first sentence was quite the beautiful hook! :) very lovely! sigh :) the second sentence made me realize just how much i missed you & your voice! (i'm crying!) it reminded me of "Renegade" & why i LOVE that tale so! :) that sentence was so SWEET! i LOVED it when Jack was rather exasperated with his lovely hellcat when he was thinking of her as a "blasted wench"! :) ah, there's nothing like a pirate's affection, aye? :) LOL oh! the second part of his thought made me melt, just as i'm sure Ana makes Jack melt! :) sigh the rest of the 'graph made me very concerned about Miss Ana! :( poor lass, is she having recurring nightmares/memories of the hell that bastard put her through? >:( she made me hurt for her when i read about the times that she would allow herself to stand still. :( that was so damned sad & made me cry for her. :( YAY! LOVED it when the second 'graph let us all know that Jack & Ana's relatioship had gone to the next level! sigh :) YUM! the description of the bed without Ana & Jack's need to drag her back to the warmth of the blankets was very good! left me feeling very warm & fuzzy! :) my heart broke for Ana when i read about her tormented mind & soul! :( when i read about her being haunted, i cried & i wished that the son-of-a-** was still alive so Ana could kill him over & over again! >:( oh! Jack made me cry when i read about him holding back, to see which hurt he would have to deal with this night! that sentence was absolutely breathtaking in it's beauty, not only because of it's words, but because of how it demonstrated Jack's love for Ana! :) i'm so glad that the couple came to their senses & realized that they were in love! :) my heart hurt for Ana when i read about her face being peaceful @ first when she wasn't showing any signs of her pain. i ached even more for her when i saw that it seemed as if she were in a daze, because i knew that couldn't mean anything good! :( i was so grateful to Jack when he went to Ana! :) i thought it was so natural that Ana wasn't startled by Jack's "sudden" appearance. it was almost as if she expected Jack to be there to kiss away the hurt & make it all better! :) Jack's description of his hellcat in the moonlight was very lovely! sigh he made me hurt for both of them when he was thinking that he wished he could take away Ana's bad memories & her pain, but he knew he couldn't. i rather enjoyed the peek of "Captain Jack Sparrow" that Jack showed Ana when he was very teasing in his retort when he told Ana that he knows her quite well! that was classic Jack & very cute & funny as well! :) LOVED, LOVED, LOVED Ana's reaction to Jack being Jack! :) i'll bet Jack spends hours & hours thinking of funny & silly things to say just to see his hellcat's dimple! :) sigh i felt my breath hitch when Ana shot Jack that wary glance & Jack stepped closer to her but he didn't touch her. i was anxious because i thought that this was a moment that could turn ugly very easily & i knew that i, like the pirates, wouldn't be able to bare that pain! :( i had a lump in my throat when i read Jack's words because i felt as if they were words of wisdom that someone had given to him after one of his adventures had gone seriously awry. :( LOVED it when he did touch her! LOVED it even more when Ana accepted Jack's words & offered him a bit of comfort in return with her own words! :) needless to say, really LOVED it when Ana caressed Jack's face & they shared the gentle kiss that quickly became not-so-gentle! :) ah! Jack & Ana passion, there ain't nothin' finer than some Jack & Ana lovin'! :) sigh i thought it was cute when Ana was batting @ Jack's bead, sort of like a kitten. except this hellcat's got a mean set of teeth & claws! :) YAY! i was so very happy for both of them when Jack asked Ana if she was okay & he saw from the look in her eyes that all was well for the moment! :) LOVED, LOVED, LOVED it when Ana told Jack that she wanted to go back to bed! WHOO HOO! :) i laughed a bit @ Jack's response even as i groaned & yelled @ him to stop being an idiot & just GO with her! :) after my lust-filled brain cleared a bit, my heart melted because i was able to see the real reason behind Jack's response! aw! how SWEET! he was giving her the time that he thought she needed to deal with her demons! sigh Ana sure is lucky to have Jack! :) i was very happy when Ana said that she had made peace with her past! i only hope that means that she'll be able to sleep @ night & she won't be leaving Jack's bed anymore! :) oh! you made me cry when i was reminded of the ugly scars that Ana has on her arms! :( when i read how they marred her, i wanted to howl in anger & anguish for her! >:( once again, i wished that the ** was still alive so Ana could kill him again & again! >:) Jack touched me very deeply when i read about him pressing his loving kiss over one of the scars & how that had also become a habit. sigh i'm not quite sure what to make of Jack's latest bit of wisdom! it sounded deep & profound @ first glance, but then i read Miss Ana's reaction & i re-read it again & i laughed @ it. i'm still @ a loss as to what to make of it, so i'll just chalk it up to Jack being Jack. :) oh! i was so happy to see that he had made Ana happy & that she bore a lightness in her expression that Jack hadn't seen for a long time! :) YAY! our lady is on her way to recovery! :) YUM! & what a nurse she has! :) drool i laughed when Jack was being cheeky & he had to remind Ana just who he was. i also enjoyed Ana's reaction to his silliness. :) aw! Ana made me melt when she told Jack that she loved him! sigh oh! Jack made me laugh & roll my eyes with his ever-so-romantic declaration of his love for his hellcat! :) LOL typical Jack! very cute & very funny! :) LOVED it when Ana elbowed him before walking away & goofy Jack was actually genuinely confused as he asked her what he had said. that was a too cute way to end the one shot! :) you left us with some typical Jack & Ana banter that made us smile & laugh & want MORE, MORE, MORE! :) i was a little surprised though that Miss Ana didn't slap Jack for calling her a wench though! thank goodness she let that one slide, though! if she hadn't, then i don't think that Jack would've had a snowball in hell's chance of getting what that earlier kiss had promised! :) LOL was that enough for you to know what i thought of you?! :) oh, by the way, don't go insulting the author! >: HATE it when that happens! i might just have to kick your ** or something! :) LOL if you want to pick on an author, go find one of those vomitus Mary Sue hacks that litter this site like so much garbage! hey! i'll make popcorn & join you as we giggle @ them! :) LOL keep up the great work & please post us more & soon! :)
