4, 25, 28 :)

4. What's the last concert you went to?

I’ve not gone to very many concerts in my life but the last one I went to was when I saw Alestorm a few years ago 🏴‍☠️

I moshed it, which is something I’ll never do again 😂

25. Favorite niche topic?

These books 🖤 and our tiny little subfandom

28. Favorite ship and why?

Them 😍

It started out as ironic bc it would be funny to see them together. It was kind of an inside joke with myself and I think I’ve been making ship art of them as far back as middle school. Now I see it as adorable and funny so I both ironically and unironically ship them. And I’m not even a huge shipper! They’re practically my only ship aside from when I shipped Sparrabella and self-shipped with Jack when I was a kid. I’m glad it grew more popular thhoooo, I need more JackXFitzy content in my lifeeeee

Can we talk about how extra was Lawrence Norrington in sotf when he captured Teague?? Like, bro, you didn't have to do ALL that to take them to your ship😭

He really was doing too much 💀💀

[before-the-black-pearl]

Because in tpof Jack said he was sailing with Teague since he was a kid, but in the Sins of the Father Jack said he run away from home (one of the many reasons at least) was because Teague didn't believe he was ready to sail with him, I headcanon that Teague stopped taking Jack with him after he was kidnapped and almost sold to slavery when he was twelve

That is exactly how I imagined it too.

I’m kinda glad that this book barely speaks on Jack’s teenage years as far as I read of it.

The author said Disney told her to not reference the YJS books and to make TPOF its own thing (from what I remember reading about it) and she easily could’ve retconned them in the book, but instead barely mentioned that period in Jack’s life so they can still coexist in the same timeline.

(None of it can be said for POTC5!)

Lawrence was either traumatized by his previous escapes or he just enjoyed humiliating Teague (or pirates in general). Or maybe both

Def also to show off to his son 🫢

I love how Jack's costume in your sketch looks a bit like Teague's clothing

I never realized it but I love it so much 🥰🥰🥰

Have you heard that there was supposed to be second season of the books? I'm so sad knowing that they never came out and never will but it's kind of fun to think about. Do you have any headcanons for what would happen there?

I first read about this waaaaay back before the series ended. I’m forever sad it never happened 😭 I don’t think I have any hcs rn but I’ve always wondered what was planned for that. I still really want Disney to someday do a second series for YJS but as a graphic novel maybe.

When I first saw that, the source said there was supposed to be to be a preview of this second season in The Tale of Billy Turner as well as original concept art of the characters. The gatefold cover was also originally supposed to feature every single major character to have appeared in the series. This book was supposed to have so much more than what it got and it’s so disappointing 😞

I really wish the Walt Disney Archives or maybe the illustrators themselves would release all the concept art. If they were easier to find on social media I would hit them up myself. The only concept art I’ve seen of YJS that was published is one sketch of Jack in a Disney Adventures issue, and I’m not sure if it counts but there’s a prototype version of the cover of book 7 in a Film Fantasy magazine too. I want to see so much more concept art of the books and I’m sad they’ll never come out.
