Aha! We've both wrote something for Davy! Although yours was more angsty whereas mine was just...evil. And, we both have references to doves! I swear, I didn't know! (Great minds think alike, eh?)

Love that last line to pieces:

"Evil would have been better. Evil could degrade. Memories could only burn."

Poor Davy...

Interesting. He truly had become evil, but to hear her say that would be more than he could bear.

That was chilling. Such a horrible, heart breaking idea.

"But when she spoke, it was to call him something far worse than any of these, worse than he had imagined. She called him by his name." How do you come up with these things. It really makes my heart hurt.

Beautifully painful.

There aren't many movie villains one can feel as repulsed by, and yet so sorry for, as PotC's Davy Jones. You've done a fine job of illustrated why that is.

Wow, nicely done! I have to agree: Davy is evil! XP But then again, he is pain in some way...

Anyways, this was really good! Vivid, vibrant, and...well...awesome! :D

Exsquisite. Pure, agonized Dalypso. I loved it! Please excuse the gushing, but this was seriously one of the best Dalypso fics I have ever read. Oh my god, the phrasing was beautiful. When you publish your book--I saw that you were writing one in your profile--you are going to be a very rich woman. I can't even pick a favorite line!! I'll try...

"He had no heart left; a curved metal blade had seen to that."

"He dipped his head wearily, images spinning behind his eyes like the silver wheel in the box, round and round, slumber stealing slowly like the dying pools of waxen flame."

"...his shoulders rising and falling in gentle counter-rhythm with the rocking of the ship."

lol, might as well C&P the whole thing.

You captured his emotions so well. It's not often I tear up, but I did! So powerful. You can really feel the depth of his pain in this piece, and the way slumber is the only thing that can take him away from his living nightmare.

A well-earned addition to my favorites list! Beautiful!!

Oh, nice nice! I loved how you tied it in with DMC!

"He had no heart left; a curved metal blade had seen to that. So why did he suddenly feel so empty, why did his chest convulse with phantom pains when he spoke the name...Calypso?"

Poor Davy. You can actually feel his pain...

Awesome job, mate!

That was a very powerful and vivid piece of writing. I didn't realise till recently how much I love reading Calypso/Davy Jones and this was a very good example of why. You captured his love and despair perfectly and it almost hurt to read.
The moment was painful and beautiful and I liked how you tied it into the movies with the key being stolen.

Great response to the prompt!

O! I like this! Not only do we get to see the dreams of Davy Jones the lover--but that great twist at the end also showed us what Davy was dreaming of while Will was pilfering the key! Well done, matey! :D

Oh wow...that is so cool!

It's the scene from DMC, right? I'm just checking!

THAT IS SO AWESOME!

Nice response Morgan! Very creative.

"He sucked in a deep breath, clutching at the ragged scar he had carved across his chest. That shouldn't have hurt. He had no heart left; a curved metal blade had seen to that. So why did he suddenly feel so empty, why did his chest convulse with phantom pains when he spoke the name...Calypso?"

I really liked that line. Very powerful.
