"I cannot say I am surprised." (itslordnow)

@itslordnow

Usually, the recently cursed captain would have taken offence towards the remark. However, this time was different. He’d not intended for this to be stealthy. On the contrary, he wanted to be seen.

One of the medallions was somewhere near here. And if he could blow off steam while getting it? Even better.

“Mayhaps not,” Hector agreed, slight venom in his tone, “But it still be good teh be cautious.”

[itslordnow]

He uttered an exaggerated sigh at the pirate before him. It was just what he would expect from a pirate that seemed … willing to be caught? He felt as if it was far too easy. “As one should be,” he added, letting his hands collect behind him and intertwine with one another. “However, it only adds more questions, does it not?”

[youreofftheedgeofthemapmate]

“Only if ye overthink it, lad,” Hector calmly told Cutler, “that be able teh get ye killed almost as easy as not thinkin’ enough.”

He gave a grin, one that would at the very least, put many men on edge. Not comforting nor offering answers.

“Ye be proud of yer men, I assume,” he questioned, stalling for his men and doing a brief search with his eyes for that damned medallion, just in case, “Not be easy teh take a pirate by surprise.”

Deckhand of two Captains

@sonofirishseas(next), @ashortdropandasuddenstop

Sonofirishseas Jack raised a brow at Hector’s declaration that he be the one to make a meal for all of them. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d tasted a real cooked meal, much less one made by Barbossa. There was a sense of haunting nostalgia through him then and it made him shift; uncomfortable. All these demandable feelings and memories…it was all quite obnoxious.

To fix said problem, Sparrow took another heavy drink and sighed, pleased as he felt the familiar warmth and rush beginning to take hold. “Fair enough then, lead on, lead on…”  He waved to Hector, ushering James along as well.

This was all so strange and surreal…not quiet as surreal as the place he’d just left but still…it was a far cry from any norm Jack had known. Pleasant as it seemed he was still a bit tense, all too aware of the tentative peace between the three of them and fearful that any small slight might up end it all. And well then, wouldn’t they all just be fucked over twice for the effort hmm?

The monkey cried and howled, miserable at the thought of being left without attention it seemed. Sparrow’s face puckered as if he’d tasted something sour, clapping his hands to his ears to stifle the sound. “You have got to be joking…” he grumbled, seeing of course that the other two men were going to play right into the little primate’s hands and give in most likely. But Jack turned towards the animal, frowning at him as if he were a bratty child. “Not getting our way our we? What a shame. Suppose you’ll just have to make do with the flees to play with…”

Wee Jack pouted and chittered at him in a sad but outraged manner and Jack sighed in annoyance, rustling around on his person for a moment before producing a palm full of what looked like nuts. “Here. Will this pacify ye a moment wee beastie?” he grumbled, offering it to the animal.

Of course the monkey took it eagerly and Sparrow turned his eyes towards his companions. “Wot? I’m not allowed to shoot ‘im anymore. Has to be some other way to quiet him down short of stuffin’ in a sack.” He joked. ashortropandasuddnestop

There was a look of utter shock from the deckhand, brow raised. " You can cook? " 

That almost sounded like an insult James.  For shame.   Sea-foam green eyes flickered back to Jack again ,  who shooed him to follow behind when he agreed and told them to lead. So apparently they were all heading down below for Hector to take care of them ? Oh, it must be a special evening because thus far James hadn't a clue the man had any culinary skill, and to be honest.. still wasn't sure.  

He knew how to bake, but he wasn't that great at main dishes, only the fun things he could recall from his pre soldier in training days with his mum.

And he heard the heart wrenching sound from the small monkey as he leapt from his shoulders to try and reach hector, then missed and couldnt decide who he wants to go with so he curled up on the floor.

Causing Norrington to pause and turn back , fully ready to scoop the little brat of a monkey back into his arms again ( honestly, he coddles that thing like a child )  when Sparrow addressed his much smaller namesake.   Producing peanuts from his pocket, for the small creature.  

The capuchin seemed momentarily appeased by this,  and he calmed in seeing the monkey make himself at home with the nuts on Hectors/Jack's Bed.   "   Try acting CIVIL toward him, some time, and perhaps  he wont screech like a proverbial banshee every time he sees you. "  snorts the deckhand, talking back to his captains today and that’s before even a sip of rum.

 Can you imagine what’s in store later?

"Aye, I be able," he murmured, a bit offended at the lack of confidence but not willing to show it, "What be so surprisin'?"

There was a reason that almost no one knew Hector had any culinary experience. Two, actually. The first was relatively obvious. A fearsome, murderous pirate captain couldn't just admit something like that.

The second was far more personal. Contained things he'd rather not share with anyone. But no time to dwell on that. Jack drinking, hearing the slosh of liquid, kept him out of his own head. A good thing, really.

The capuchin's cries broke his own heart, and much like James, he'd been about to give in. Until the man the monkey was named after did something surprising.

He didn't intervene, although he was tempted. It was interesting to see the dynamic. And of course, the little one's offense. That was really the only point where he needed self control.

But then, yet again, Jack did something he didn't expect. He pulled out food for the undead little one. Thankfully, the curse seemed to only negatively affect humans. Wee Jack had always been able to eat and feel warmth. The former of which might just be the key if Jack the man wants to get along with his namesake.

Gesturing for the others to follow, Hector asked "Anythin' sound particularly good?"

Jackie was not opposed to being picked up, vaguely remembering James from when she was much smaller, and wrapped her arms around his neck. Even as he adjusted her, she didn’t squirm too much.

Her smile not waning, the little girl happily exclaimed, “Daddy be sayin’ ye should get used teh the ship! We be goin’ teh Port Royal soon!”

Hector had to chuckle at her comment. His daughter amused him. And seeing her soften the rigid lieutenant? Yet another reason to keep her around, other than the obvious.

“Aye, Jackie. Good job fer rememberin’. The Swanns be movin’ teh Port Royal, lad. If ye’d like, we be able teh get ye acquainted with everythin’ before that. Ship not be far,” he offered, hoping for it to be accepted.

“ Yes, they’ve been quite excited and anxious about the trek. Especially Ms Swann. ” There was a nasty little smile on James lips. “ She reminds much of the little one here, quite taken with pirates much to Governor Swann’s lament, or so he’s complained. ”

James set her back down for her to return to Hector.

 " I hardly believe a gentleman could turn down such an offer.  I’d be delighted to join the lot of you aboard for a bit of orientation. “  Never hurts to learn your vessel’s ins and outs before a voyage.  And he wanted to spend more time here rather than turning in and being alone all night.

[youreofftheedgeofthemapmate]

"Oh," Hector said, intrigued, "Jackie be quite happy teh tell the lass all about piracy, ain't that right? Wee one be havin' a few of her own interests."

Much to my displeasure, piracy being one. Thank you, Jack Sparrow.

Yet another reason he believed she'd find it easier to be a privateer, rather than truly in the Navy. Although, knowing how she is now, she might choose to dabble in true piracy on the side.

For Jackie's part, she took James' hand in her own, much smaller, after she was set down, leaning on him a bit. And perking up at his acceptance.

"The ship be really big!" she excitedly exclaimed, attempting to drag the young man with her.

          Maybe Jim should be feeling some sort of fear — or at least intimidation — when face to face with the infamous Captain Barbossa . Then again , how could one feel fear for their own life when they are so ready to risk it all for the sake of holy revenge ? This man is just another derailment from making such an accomplishment possible .     Or maybe he could be another path to finding that closure you’re looking for .

“ So , what ? ”     asked in a casual tone , though there’s a hint of curiosity at the tail end of the question .     “ You want me to board your ship , join your crew , ”     a pause as eyes narrow in suspicion ,     “ — all out of the goodness of your fuckin’ heart ? ”

[youreofftheedgeofthemapmate]

"Nay," the captain explained, "It be because yer useful."

The questioning of his motives endeared them to him. Plenty would take issue with such a comment, but not Hector. Instead, it proves him right.

Honesty can be rare. And for a good ship, you desperately need some semblance of honesty between crew and captain.

"It be up teh ye if ye take me up on the offer, he explained, "But ye'd be rewarded. The Black Pearl be the fastest ship on the sea."

How Do You Need To Be Touched?

gently.

you need to be held as though you're going to break. you need someone to trace your scars like cracks in a wall, crumbling. their touch is almost painful; you've been without it for too long, without someone to hold you. but, you cannot bring yourself to pull away.

Hector had been pouring over the chart, attempting to understand the meaning of some of the words. Up is down, for instance.

Eventually, he gave up and had chosen to spend a few moments with his favorite deckhand.

What started as simple conversation soon led to a few drinks on the former admiral’s end. And with drinks, came a far more open man.

He pulled James into his lap, offering a warm body to help stave off any thoughts. From either of them

[youreofftheedgeofthemapmate]

James smiled to himself, closing his eyes as he mapped over the older hand. “ A poem, or perhaps a sonnet” he mused  “ It’s been ages since I’ve had time  for the craft” he  pats his lap for wee Jack. to join them.  This was a calm, relaxing night and all of this small strange little family was welcome. 

And when wee Jack joined them , James was content at last. “  Perhaps another night will be just as good.  I’ve decided I’m too comfortable to move after all. “ 

Hector smiled when his beloved pet joined the fray. An adorable sight, the little monkey. They really were a strange family. And that was nice.

Although he was not opposed to writing something, James’ comment changed his tune immediately. The warmth, Jack’s presence, and the closeness certainly made him feel welcome.

Breathing in his scent, Hector whispered, “That be true, far teh nice right now.”

You are far too nice, being an unspoken addition

Rewards

@ashortdropandasuddenstop

[youreofftheedgeofthemapmate]

The first mate thought he was finally going to get the appropriate attention he was rightly owed from 'daddy'  though his attention moved to the deckhand  " You gonna let this little twat watch? "  not that he cared,  it would show the English dog that he was a third wheel!

James pressed a kiss between the capuchin's little eyes and let the little monkey hop off, to get into some mischief and bother the other crewmembers, leaving the three adult males alone to their pleasure and punishments.

James nodded obediently and moved to the bed, sitting down upon it, with a bit of a curious expression.  " Yes, I'm ..wondering that myself.. Captain"

Hector got to work with tying Izzy up right away. First Mate Hands wouldn't be able to escape, no matter how hard he tried. It took not even a minute before Israel Hands was completely at his mercy.

He then turned to James, free on the bed, and caressed his cheek.

“Daddy’s brat be needin’ a lesson, lad. And Daddy’s good boy be needin’ a reward,” he simply explained, pressing a kiss on James’ lips, “Now, undress,” he ordered the deckhand.

@ashortdropandasuddenstop

The plan had not been to attack, originally. The crew, and especially the captian, of the Black Pearl had other ideas surrounding treasure.

Yet when the Endeavor had been spotted, such an opportunity had been too tempting to pass up.

The wind on their side, the Black Pearl quickly manages to get close to its prey. Boarding is little issue, as most of the men have experience dealing with Naval dogs.

After, however, a fight is put up. While his men deal with Officers, a much more specific target has caught Captain Barbossa's eye.

Drawing his sword, he prepares to duel Admiral Norrington while the chaos around them continues to spill blood

[youreofftheedgeofthemapmate]

Not only does he value the presence of the monkey, but he spoils him with treats that even his daddy wouldnt let him have.  Such as that sip of liquor.     And he laughed again, once the capuchin affixed to his face once more.   He pries Jack off his face moving him  down to his chest to cling like a baby to a bigger monkey . About to reach for his booze again when he heard the man speak.

Instantly James was on alert. Reaching for his sword in case he needed to defend himself, while protectively shifting Jack to his shoulder, who was screeching protectively at the Bosun.

“ I’m afraid any dues will have to be taken up with the Captain, as I am certainly in no mood to grant any favors.  Contrary to the current consensus, I am not a harlot. ”

“ You lie, Commodore.  We don’t doubt our own eyes. ” He approached with out respect nor fear of the former military man. Grabbing him by the hair. “You like bowing to superiors!”

James drew his blade in that moment. And the bosun felt the blade against his adams apple.  " Do not make the mistake of thinking because I know how to roll over that I’ve forgotten how to BITE" he seethes.

It was a stale mate of James hair yanked back and sharp cutlass against bosuns throat.

Hector saw the sip of rum given to the small one, but only smiled. Yes, he would never allow such a thing. But he was not unaware of how much his capuchin took after the man he was named after.

Not to mention, the original shock from his little monkey was too cute. And then Jack was wrapped around James’ face, with his daddy unable to stifle the chuckle.

But then the scene progressed, his bosun threatening James and the former admiral making a counter.

Jack’s protective screeches grew louder, garnering mroe attention from others, although no one intervened on either side’s behalf. Either too frightful of what the captain would do or otherwise just not wanting things to have gotten to this stage. Teasing, a bit of fun? No problem. But this looked too far for the likes of Ragetti, one of the few who was quite happy with the new deckhand.

Hector stepped in, only a moment of hesitation, grabbing the dark skinned wrist.

“Ye will not lay a hand on those under my protection,” he calmly, eerily calmly, stated.

He then looked at James, “Put away the sword, lad. Ye not be needin’ it anymore,” before calling his pet to his shoulder. He looked exactly as he did when they had kidnapped Elizabeth. And thanks the clouds, even the lighting wasn’t too different.

" You aren't the boss of me." from jim !

@fromshadovvs

Hector already liked Jim. The comment was dangerous to make, considering who he was. Yet they seemed to have no issue. And it was endearing.

Someone with those kinds of guts tends to be useful. Especially on a crew where curses are not unfamiliar, danger and all that goes along with even a loose association with the former captain of the Pearl common place. And so he did something so rare these days, where his men are useful and usually without complaint.

“That be true,” he told them, “But I still be a captain. With a crew and experience that ye lack. Although, that not be needin’ teh be the case. Ye seem useful.”

The Lieutenant knelt down and swooped her up as she ran to him. His expression once more softening, as he was unable to keep up such a facade around children or animals for the most part.

" Well , in that case, what would the little Commodore like to do? "  He muses, shifting her weight.  She was lithe and all, but he wasn't used to the weight of a child in his arms.

Jackie was not opposed to being picked up, vaguely remembering James from when she was much smaller, and wrapped her arms around his neck. Even as he adjusted her, she didn't squirm too much.

Her smile not waning, the little girl happily exclaimed, "Daddy be sayin' ye should get used teh the ship! We be goin' teh Port Royal soon!"
