Triple Drabble: 'Inheritance' (Jack Sparrow, Tom Sparrow (OC) - PG)

[geekmama]

When I saw that this week's drabble challenge prompt was 'Inherit' I had to write this little prologue to Harry & the Pirate VI: Blood and Treasure. I'm up to chapter sixteen in writing it, and I intend to post a chapter a day beginning on 1-1-11, which is the 7th anniversary of the series.

Harry & the Pirate is an A/U sequel to Curse of the

Thank you! Tom's a chip off the old block as Jack knows very well. I'm up to chapter seventeen, now, just a few more to go. *bounces* Thank you for reading and commenting, I appreciate it so much!

Tom grinned. “Bring me that horizon!”

Jack scowled. “You dare to bait your father?”

“My lord, I’d never!” Tom said, bowing dramatically, then gave an impudent wink as he straightened and ducked out before Jack could throw something at him.

LOL! Definitely his father's son, is Tom Sparrow! ;-)

And the thought of Jack actually having inherited a Lordship! No wonder he's at sixes and sevens over the very possibility! :-)

Lovely little appetiser for the "main course" to come! I can hardly wait until January! :-)

It's nice to be able to look forward to the end of the holidays too, lol! The story is a little different, being set in England, and it's been a lot of fun to research and write. I just hope I haven't got too many details wrong -- I need someone to "Britpick" it, but it's 40,000 words. 0.o

Thank you so much for reading and commenting! I really appreciate it.

Thank you! It'll be fun to post a long story that's not a WIP! Almost through writing, I'm on chapter 17 now.

Oh my! Early Christmas!!

Word of a scrumptious looong chapter tale in the Harry and Jack universe to come and now a glimpse of little Tom all grown and his father's image--in more ways than one--and this to in multi-chapters. With some resolutions in the offing after the lifetime of bitterness with Wainfleet and Jack's temporary apprenticeship to the cartographer.

EEEEE! Heppy Hepppy Kat!

Little Tom isn't so little any more and there are adventures in store for both him and his father. It's been great fun to write. I must thank you for all the encouragement you gave me to continue their story, as well as for your kind comments here.

HAHAHAHA. NO, a Sparrow of any feather would NEVER do something like that to their father. ;-)

[geekmama]

Hee! Of course not.
