Ultima Thule (4/14)

Emma could remember fingers tangled in her curls, the weight of a hand settling on the small of her back, a smile meant only for her eyes. To have a soft kiss pressed against her lips, tentative and sweet, to share each other’s breath. Emma knew what it was to have someone by her side until he’d been taken away.

She’s spent near to half her life watching the horizon line, waiting for the tides to bring back what the sea once claimed.

Killian looked down at his hands, stained crimson with his brother’s blood, before staring across the deck as the pirate ship left his shattered world in its wake, and wondered what they could possibly have stood to gain from his loss.

He’s lost everything, his family, his love, even his hand. The one thing he believes he can- no, will – get back is his ship.

If no one else would do anything, Henry certainly would. He was going to save his mother, and the way he saw it, there was only one person in the entirety of Fort Charles that could possibly help him. Someone who had nothing to lose but his life, and everything to gain.

He doesn’t know much about the world beyond the stories he reads, but he’s determined to save the person he loves most.

      A Captain Swan story, based on Pirates of the Caribbean.

Master Brown was asleep again.

Or so Liam always said, but Killian knew better. The man was three sheets to the wind, as usual, and no amount of Liam’s polite euphemisms would be enough to convince him otherwise. At thirteen, Killian saw a lot more than his older brother would like, and understood more than he was given credit for. He knew the man was well and truly pissed and wouldn’t see daylight for several hours more.

He also knew Liam’s task would keep him away from the forge for most of the afternoon, which meant Killian had time to play.
