I am watching Curse of the Black Pearl, and I am still super fucking committed to Elizabeth Swann, she of the wild eyes and voice like Damascus steel and hungry heart of a pirate.
#god i love elizabeth swann#best beloved and most feared#the girl with the hurricane in her veins and the glare of sun-on-sea in her eyes#homeless and wild and untamed as an albatross#norrington and jack and will are all so in love with her in their ways#norrington who loves her well-heeled mask first and then discovers (to his horror) that he loves her iron strength even better#jack who loves her as distractedly and madly as he loves the pearl#loves what she is to him: freedom and fire and wind in his sails and the glitter of stars on the horizon#and will who loves her flashes of aching gentleness#who was her possession from the first moment she said she was watching over him and learned that he loved her unbreakable grip#and elizabeth…elizabeth is in love with them all a little bit but she’s more in love with the sea and the sky and blood on her lips#with calypso and her wildness and her hunger and her cruelty#elizabeth doesn’t think of what she feels for those men as love#she thinks of it as claiming#they are hers and elizabeth is the pirate king and beloved of the sea#and she takes what she wants and gives nothing back#and she is stubborn and selfish and not sorry#i love her so much
