Claim: Pirates of the Caribbean (general)
Title: eye of the needle
Author: d_r_o_n_e
Characters: Jack Sparrow/the Black Pearl
Prompt: 09. Hurt/Comfort
Rating: PG
Length: 500 words
Brief summary: Maybe it doesn't conform, quite, to the usual definition of hurt/comfort -- pirate. The relationship between the Black Pearl and her "dashing beloved mad captain" is a beautiful one -- but that doesn't mean it's perfect. Doesn't mean they can't hurt each other. But it gets better.

Claim: Pirates of the Caribbean (general)
Title: His Holiness, Captain Sparrow
Author: Beth/CG
Characters: Jack Sparrow
Prompt: 10. Fandom Cliche
Rating: PG
Length: 3,325 words
Brief summary: This fulfills the prompt in two ways: both in that it's a fantastic piece of backstory for Jack, which takes off from a single line in canon, one that's been examined almost to death -- Jack? Impersonate a clergyman? The hell? -- and in that Jack himself is aware of the cliches of his profession. Funny, charming, and the way jack is handled here is excellent.
