You know that law of the internet where if you say something should exist, you call it into being somewhere out there on the world wide web? Last night I said there should totally be Pirates of the Caribbean/Pirates of Penzance fic because Jack Sparrow needs to meet the Pirate King.

Well, there is. I have not actually read this. It involves vampires somehow. If someone does read it, tell me how it is.

ETA: Aaaaand it has eleven chapters. I'm not reading it! I'm NOT!

ETA2: I am a weak, weak person. I looked on ff.net to see if there was Penzance fanfic, and, of course, there was. A beautiful three-hundred word story where the author had named the Pirate King Iven. Which had sections like: "The Boy was His. Not theirs. His. With hyphens." And in the comments, somebody had meta'ed about the characterization of Frederic. Oh my fucking lord. Internets, you've killed me. I have to leave now.

Hey--I think I've run into you before in the Constantine fandom (those halcyon days). I guess the other law of the internet is that if you write about another fan, they'll find out about it. So you know, the not reading it comments were because it was late at night and I should have been going to bed, not trying to find PoP fic; it was no reflection on your writing. I will let you know if I can find any other Pirates of Penzance fic, but signs point to unlikely. I now have an urge, though to write a fic where Hornblower runs into Frederic--the two are practically identical characters.

Ah-hah, yes, Constantine. I thought your username looked familiar. *G*

A truer word was never spoken! Politeness would abound, and much discussion of the very great honour of doing one's duty. *G* (I was going to suggest throwing Norrington in there too, but even before the second movie, I think he would've rolled his eyes, downed his drink and pissed off. *G*)
