Youko-Kokuryuuha 2007-07-19 ch 5,	abuseAnother excellent chapter. I thought Norrington was a good point of view to use, actually, seeing as he was the only character to teeter between both sides of the world. I thought his final choice in At World's End was still heroic, though. Anywho, update soon! :D ~Koky
Mengde 2007-04-02 ch 5,	abuseApologies for not reviewing last night, I was suffering through several hours of limp-d... er. Roxas. (Turns out I didn't save that game after all. Crap.) You did Norrington very well. The "promise of redemption" allowing him to look past these unpleasant paralells between himself and Jack, no matter how inconvenient they might be... Sounds like his reasoning to me, or to be more precise it sounds like the reasoning of a man who desperately wants to affirm his noble purpose and has to sidestep some obstacles first. I like it.
Random Authoress 2007-03-31 ch 5,	abuseWow...these are absolutely excellent. Jack's is amazing. I am usually not very interested in the character of Jack Sparrow (I know, I'm odd), but the chapter with him really caught my attention. The one for Elizabeth captures her guilt very well. Barbossa's and Jones' both show an interesting perspective as well. My favorite of these so far, however, has to be this last one. Norrington is one of my two most favorite characters, and the way you address his Choice is exquisite. Keep up the wonderful work!
Jessamyn Dreamer 2007-03-31 ch 5,	abuseappluads That was good. Very, very good. I am impressed: Firstly because you wrote Norrington convincingly, Secondly because you are one of the few who is capable of writing about Norrington without throwing in a gratuitous sex scene, and Thirdly because this is one of an almost nonexistent genre of Well Written Fiction in the Second Person Bravo. God bless, -Jess
luna's (the moon) lady-love 2007-01-15 ch 2,	abuseI like the writing style of this, looking from their points kof view. It is pretty cool. I can't wait until you get to Will's, it seems like it will be interesting.
Youko-Kokuryuuha 2007-01-04 ch 4,	abuseQuite a powerful read, PaS. The contradictory statements of those last three chapters add to the feeling of remorse and self turmoil present within the characters' conscience. Looking forward to an update. :3 ~Koky
Jinxeh 2007-01-02 ch 4,	abuseAck, I loved it. ^.^ Amazing, how the sea can hold such a power over him...a woman, the sea, the sea, a woman...all one to him, I suppose. Can't wait for more.
Jinxeh 2007-01-02 ch 3,	abuseSorry for the late review; things have been rather hectic at my home lately...college stuff...blegh. See, now I truly enjoyed this chapter. It's a little strange, but Barbossa was always one of my favorite characters, meaning that the first time I saw DMC and he appeared in the last five seconds, I almost jumped on top of my theater chair and started cheering. This chaptr was just lovely. Well done. :)
Mengde 2006-12-24 ch 4,	abuseM, lovely. You paint him in a very sympathetic light, which I think works quite well here. I'd feel pretty damn sorry for myself too if I had a hammerhead-shark-headed guy coming on to me whenever I poked my head out of my cabin. Seriously, his first mate is CREEPY. I like the bit about love and hate. Love and hate are, after all, two sides of the same coin. You got that perfectly.
NazgulQueen 2006-12-22 ch 4,	abuseThese are amazing and so very true. I love them.
BadLilBirdies 2006-12-22 ch 4,	abuseAbsolutely beautiful. I loved every single one, and everyone was very in character.
Mengde 2006-12-18 ch 3,	abuseBarbossa's just not a nice person, is he? I like his particular choice of a Choice, since there are seemingly so many turning points in his life to choose from. What with the way he talks, though, I wouldn't expect him to really give too much of a damn about present tense vs. past tense... nice touch, though. But where are the APPLES? o.o
Jinxeh 2006-12-11 ch 2,	abuseWonderful; both chapters. You don't often see a story written such as this on this site, so it was a refreshing change from the usual barrage of Mary-Sues and Sparrabeth, and Willabeth, and whatever-male-that-walks-on-two-legs-abeth. I heartily enjoyed it, deario, and will be adding it to my favorite stories list now. Well done.
Mengde 2006-12-11 ch 2,	abuseOh, more! Another excellent piece; I could palpably feel Elizabeth's guilt. And "a too-tight corset..." Hee. If you write more on this, one for Will might be interesting.
Ditte3 2006-12-10 ch 2, anon.	abuseWonderful writing.
