Title: The End of My Pirate Days
Author: beanside

Rating: PG
Length: 2, 000 words
Brief summary: Elizabeth's a wonderfully ambiguous character -- poised between the domesticity, the 'feminine sphere', that her father expects of her and the piratical longings that she begins to explore in the movies. This story brings that tension to a point, and resolves it.
