#willabeth forever

[raphidae]

First of all, ahhhh another Magi fan / KassAli shipper ;-; secondly, sorry for all the numbers, I just wanted to hear your thoughts on this stuff since this is honestly a really cool ask meme!! #1 #3 #20 #40

Thank you for sending me the ask! Also, as a warning, spoilers for The Last Jedi abound!

1. Tell me about the first ship you ever had.

The first ship I ever had was Willabeth (Will/Elizabeth from Pirates of the Caribbean). It was the first pairing in which I actually found an online forum to rave about the pairing, and I just loved (and STILL LOVE) how much Will and Elizabeth love each other.

3. What is your current OTP?

As I’ve grown as a fan, I’ve noticed that I tend to multiship rather than have a solid OTP, so as a fellow Magi fan, my current OTPs in that fandom are Alihaku, Kassali, Alikou, Myron/Morgiana and Enali.

20. Talk about a ship you feel alone in shipping.

I have a LOT of those, but one I’m really surprised to see little content for is Rose/DJ. I adored their chemistry in The Last Jedi, and I understand the myriad reasons why they didn’t work out in the end, but I still love it SO MUCH.

40. If you could change one thing about your OTP, what would it be?

For most of my OTPs, the one thing I’d change is I’d wish for them to be CANON, DAMN IT!

As for Kylux, however, I’d ax that choking scene in The Last Jedi and replace with something that sets Kylo and Hux on a more equal footing.

Does Disney not understand that if they gave us more PotC with the same characters, they would make more money than if they try to do something else with the series? I’m just upset at not getting more Willabeth ok.

I wish Disney would continue the series or just end it at five. I don’t want a reboot. No real fan does.

Times Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann risked their lives/saved the others lives.

Curse of the Black Pearl:

Will: tries to kill Jack for threatening Elizabeth, fights the pirates who invade Port Royal, gets knocked out when he sees Elizabeth being taken away, interrupts a meeting between Norrington and his men, frees Jack from jail so that he can lead him to Elizabeth, hits Jack over the head so that he can swim over and get Elizabeth, used his own life as a trade to free Elizabeth, stopped the execution to save Jack and confess his love for her, and was willing to accept his death for it. Elizabeth: refuses to tell Barbossa who Bootstraps real child was, tried to pry open the hatch to try to save Will, attacked Barbossa because he thought he killed Will, burned Jack’s rum to get off the island to get help, escaped Norrington’s ship to find Will, fought pirates with Will despite not having training in that, and stood with Will in between Norrington and Jack to protect Jack and show her love for Will.

Dead Man’s Chest:

Will: starts to fight arrest when he sees Elizabeth get handcuffed, is willing to go to a cannibal island to get Jack’s compass, goes onto Davy Jones’s ship to get a key (and gets whipped), survives a Kraken attack, fights Jack and Norrington, leads the crew through another Kraken attack, and still stays loyal and loving to Elizabeth after she kissed Jack. Elizabeth: gives up the safety of London to find Will, pretends to be a ghost on a ship to get to Tortuga (while in disguise), fights a bunch of drunk pirates, joins Jack’s crew to find Will, and kisses Jack so that the crew can escape the Kraken.

At Worlds End:

Will: goes to get the map they need from Sao Feng, saves Elizabeth from being shot, stays loyal to her even though he’s mad at her, stops her from jumping off the ship and comforts her when her father dies, tries to stop her from going with Sao Feng, protects her from Calypso’s crabs, proposes to her during a battle, stabs Davy Jones when he tries to stab Elizabeth, dies for her, gives his one day to be with Elizabeth, and helps kill Beckett. Elizabeth: sails to Sao Feng’s boat to get Will back, gives him her other sword, reaches for his hand when he looses grip, goes with Sao Feng, trades Jack (one of the pirate lords) for Will during parlay, marries Will during battle, fights with Davy Jones, refuses to leave his side during his last moments, tries to stay with him even though the boat is sinking, gives up pirating to live on land for him, promises to keep his heart safe, and stays loyal to him and gives birth to his child.

And of course there is the fact that in between Curse of the Black Pearl and Dead Man’s Chest, Will teaches Elizabeth how to sword fight so that she can protect herself if needed.

I couldn’t find it on Tumblr again and I got really sad. So I found a YouTube video where it was featured. I’m pretty sure it was Will’s idea and he could not stop laughing and just wanted to tell Elizabeth about it.

It really hurts to think about Will’s death. He was stabbed after protecting Elizabeth with the sword he made for Norrington. He ends up stabbing Davy’s heart with Jack’s broken sword that Davy broke. And Bootstrap had to cut his son’s heart out with the dagger he gave Will to kill Davy Jones and free him. It really hurts ok.

In Dead Men Tell No Tales, Henry goes to talk to Will on the Dutchman. When we see Will he is starting to become part of the ship. I think it’s because he saw/felt that Henry was in danger and broke the rules of his curse to save him because he wasn’t that far into the transformation. I also imagine Will panicking thinking that Henry is there to tell him some bad news like Elizabeth died or something. I don’t know. I just know that Will would never give up when it comes to family. He would never be like Davy Jones. Ugh just that scene hurt so much.

Also I think if Elizabeth was dying while Will was still cursed to the Dutchman, she would want Henry to set her to sea so that she would die at sea and be able to join Will again.

Was watching a Willabeth edit and I just couldn’t stop laughing at this. Governor Swann’s face is priceless. What even is this expression.

[thepirateelf]

In Dead Man’s Chest when Will sneaks onto the Dutchman, as punishment, Bootstrap has to whip him as Davy Jones watches. Just imagine Elizabeth’s reaction to finding those marks on Will’s back. She must have been so worried.
