ACK! Internet problems are the DEVIL!!! It's still Sunday, however, in California at least, so I'm not late yet. Here's Chapter Two of Harry & the Pirate V: Caribbean Quests, with thanks to hereswith for taking time from her vacation to beta read.

Chip off the old block, that Tom Sparrow. :) Lovely chapter, excitement awaits I am sure!

He is certainly Jack's (and Harry's) son. Exciting events in the wings, stay tuned! And thanks for reading and commenting, too. :))

Nobody ever told Jack that he'd have a child just like himownself, did they? LoL!
Tom, being a wondermus manchild, really doesn't fathom his limits and Jack's already seen example of his luck (overboard in the other storm). God love this baby tho', he has his Da's charm and love of adventure and his Mother's empathetic sweetness to carry him. I'm so tickled by how little kids will either decide aye or no to another. Partly, being the wee ones put them together, but the fact Anne thinks Tom hung the moon...well, **BIG old happy smile** told you already I'm an OHEP (original happy end piratista).

His description of adult activities of the noturnal kind was just perfect, the scandalous secret of the fact his parents kiss and wrestle bare--I laughed and laughed about that one!--it'd be hard for him to miss such at his house with his limited knowledge of boundaries and relatively young parents. Loved it, so glad to have them around!

I'm so glad you enjoyed Anne and Tom's conversation, and stay tuned, there are lots of adventures on the horizon before we reach that happy ending, lol!

*hugs*

What fun to have them back and at sea, where they belong.
Love Tom's enjoyment of storms and his "wrestling" comments, and Jack's assessment of the island natives, so CJS.
Your description of the ship's cabin felt like being there.
Here's to many chapters of this fine story. Drinks all around!

Oooh, that makes me happy. Thank you again!!!

"Taking refuge behind a lady's skirts, eh? That ain't going to help your case."

I feel rather sorry for Tom, but Jack is right. Adherence to the rules is crucial if you're going to have whelps aboard!

Forgive the late reply, I truly appreciate you commenting here, too. It's true that Jack can be a bit autocratic at times. Captain and all.

Just got back from a month of sailing, and then finger surgery, so I'm trying to play catchup... and what better place to start but a good storm? (We weathered 2 gales in one week!)

And ever so nice and nautically! It would seem that the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree: Tom has inherited his father's malady of good intentions (well, perhaps a bit misguided but well-intended at heart) going unappreciated. Maybe Jack knows that the most torturous aspect of being disciplined is the waiting. Poor Tom!

Good stuff!!

A month of sailing! You lucky thing. But the finger surgery, not so lucky. I hope you are all better soon.

Maybe Jack knows that the most torturous aspect of being disciplined is the waiting.

Of course, who should know better than Jack? *g*

Thank you so much for reading and commenting -- I do hope you enjoy the rest, too!
