Title: Nowhere Else To Go

Rating: Teen

Summary: Jack is taken advantage of by Bill. This fic began at the Potc_Love drabble group, but I liked it, so I rewrote it.  Sorry if the format goes strange, but Lj doesnt seem to like me :(

Bill took Jack to the nearest tavern to listen to him talk. Fifteen years old and Jack knew nothing of the world other ( Read more... )

Sparrowstrap - huzzah! The world needs sparrowstrap!

I like this. It's creepy. (And with poor lovelorn Jack taking over my head to pine for his William, it's very nice to see things flowing the other way for once. Go make the bastard suffer, Jack!)

Please God don't let Will ever find out...

ahh! Will! I'd forgotten about Will. Yes he’d better not find out, he'd probably go blaming himself or something. Jack and Bill’s past doesn’t sound all that merry to me, Jack didn’t look all that happy when talking about it to Will, so it got me thinking. Got to be some bitterness there somewhere...
Thanks for reading!!

I was intruiged by the way Jack said, "one of the few who knew him as WILLIAM Turner". That seemed to be really important to Jack (but then he calls him Bootstrap and Bill Turner in DMC - for which I'm trying to build up a plausible backstory...) I don't see Jack looking unhappy there so much as worried about what exactly to tell Will. The Jack and Bill scene in DMC is strange. Obviously, I read it to fit my story, but I'm sure it would work nicely with yours.
The way I read your story, Bill is going to do what Jack wants, sooner or later, and get him onto a ship. After that, I imagine there'll be no stopping Jack, and Bill will be left to mope. About bloody time too.

Luckily, woolymonkey told me about this community!

This was beautifully done, loved the way you portrayed Bill! And the last line was fantastic, a very interesting take on what's behind their friendship!
