And a Bottle of Rum

Pirates of the Caribbean: And a Bottle of Rum

Who knew what I needed in a new fandom was pirates? I didn't, until I saw Dead Man's Chest. Stories containing AWE spoilers are marked as such.

Disclaimer: Disney, etc. own them. I don't.

Warning: Stories marked "slash" contain homosexual relationships. Stories marked "NC-17" contain explicit sex. If either one offends you, or is illegal for you to read (because, for instance, you're under 18), please go read something else.

The "Shipwreck" series
The question is how to go on from here. AU. Jack/Norrington, with various other pairings possible later. Spoilers for AWE.

Shipwreck	It would be easier to face their certain defeat if James at least had some rum.
Thunder	Sometimes the best you can do is decide which side you're not on.
Rum	Jack has a plan. James plans an escape. As plans tend to, they go somewhat astray.
