Following a scandalous public rejection that left his pride and reputation in tatters, Commodore James Norrington needed a swift, respectable match. A wealthy widow from the Americas seemed like the perfect solution — a convenient ornament to his uniform and a beautiful shield for his broken heart.

But the Commodore miscalculated.

As Norrington spoke his vows at the altar, he had no idea he was marrying a venomous Southern magnolia instead of a gentle English rose. Furious at being a ‘consolation prize’, the willful Southern belle is determined to unravel her husband’s meticulously ordered life — until he curses the very day he bound them in holy matrimony.

#I know I’ve said it before but I’m going to say it again #James expected Beckett would want to kill Jones #and he was 1000% ready to be the headsman swinging that proverbial axe #I don’t believe it even occurred to him before Beckett stopped him how deep the man’s greed and corruption ran #when he initiated the trade, I fully expect that in his mind he was ridding the world of a dangerous and cruel eldritch creature and gaining back his honor/commission #protection and redemption #but that’s not how it went down at all

#instead James watches in increasing unease as Beckett reveals his intentions #and fields the dawning realization that he has achieved neither #he has not protected the innocent #and though he may have a new commission there is no honor in it #he has delivered a devastating weapon into the hands of a monster #who goes on to command monsters #to do monstrous things

#and in that process he has betrayed- and quite possibly condemned- the woman he loves #well done James #well done

To my 25 - 35 year olds, you've reached the age where people around you are starting to give up on themselves because they think it's too late. Don't let that energy rub off on you. It's not too late.

Jesus can help a lot with that, too. He did for me.
