Er... what?
TITLE: Love Can Kill You when You want it to (her capitalization, not mine)
AUTHOR: ForestSpirit

NAME(S): Sarah Black. Or Sarah Wells. The author hasn't decided, apparently.
AFFILIATION: pirate
HAIR COLOR: not mentioned
EYE COLOR: not mentioned
SPECIAL POSESSIONS: a piece of the cursed Aztec gold

HISTORY: Er ... I have no idea.

CONNECTIONS TO CHARACTERS: Is apparently Will's long-lost sister. However, the summary says "Sarah Black has fallen in love with someone whose heart is already taken." Please please please tell me this is NOT going to be an incest-fic...

NOTES: Besides being a really painfull story, it has some weird formatting.

SAMPLE OF THE STORY:



What? No. Just ... No.

Will Turner was on a ship that was being sailed by Jack Sparrow. He had never in his life thought he would ever sail with a pirate, but if it meant he could get Elizabeth back then he didn't care. They were sailing near a
famous cliff that everyone said if you jump off of and had something to land on you would still die.


... Omgwtfbbq.

He looked up and noticed to people fighting on the cliff. It looked like one would fall off any minute and soon enough a body came flying down. When the body got close enough he saw that it was a woman and that she was acting like there was a care in world. She flipped
in the air and landed on her feet on the deck.

"Thanks for being here to break my fall." she said smiling.

Jack was, for some reason, stunned. Then he snapped back to earth and
nodded.

"Don't mention it." he said.


... and promptly hid for the rest of the fic, fearing the possibility of being seduced by another Mary Sue.



.. Random note - there's some weird sports thing on TV and they're playing a Brak song. BRAK! ... Just thought you'd all like to know. *cough* Anyway.



Aughhh incest possibilities, noooo!

"Want is that you have there?" Will asked nodding toward the locket.

"Oh, just a locket my father gave me." she said putting the locket back on.

"What is your father like?" Will asked.

"Was. My father was a merchant sailor. He was killed out to sea. I was young at the time and he sent this locket before he died." she explained.

He father was exactly like his. And his father had also died when he was young.


Golly gee-whiz! What a coincidence!

Then he noticed a glint of gold from under the pillow. He reached for it and heard Sarah gasp. It must be something she didn't want him to see. He picked it up and saw that it was a gold coin. The same gold coin
his father had given him!


Dun dun duuuuuun!

"My father gave me that to." Sarah said snatching from his hand.

"Sarah, tell me what's going on." Will demanded staring her straight in the
eye.

A/N: Sorry, it's past midnight and I really need to sleep. Hope you liked
it.


Not only do you need sleep, you need to never write fanfiction ever again.

*reads the whole fic* Alright, I need a captain, a crew and a ship. Take me to this cliff so I can jump off of it! Or just some sporks. Not even a healthy swig of rum can save this one.

There must be mine traps, or spears that shoot out of the water, or at least the famous sea sirens that lured sailors to their deaths.... It's got to be the explanation. She's just expecting us to know that! Yeah.... Because if you landed on something...wouldn't you be safe? It's a new brand of fanfiction called "read my mind because I suck."

Depends. I don't think sharp jagged rocks count as safe but that's just me. She doesn't define "something". Maybe she thinks that the sea floor is lined with mattresses?

I hate this new brand of fiction. If she was Will's sister, wouldn't her last name be TURNER? Not Black? Oh dear god, please don't let it turn Potter on us and have her be related to Sirius or some crap like that.

Oh dear lord, I bet that's where she got the name, too. *sighs* Why can't people be explicit in their writing, either. That passage would have come off much better if she'd cared to explain her thoughts.

"The large ship sailed past a well-known cliff. Commonly called "Death to Pirates," at the base of the cliff lay jagged rocks and such rough waves that even had a person missed the rocks falling from the cliff, they would have been dashed up against the land because of the strong water."

Wow. Isn't it incredible how much more sense that makes! *grin*

Wouldn't it be great if there were a sea life called "sea mattresses"? You could just bounce up and down...and occasionally they'd eat your toes or something.

Death to Pirates sounds FAR too amusing right now. It's late. HAHAHA. Of course, no real pirates should die. Just sues. It's amazing how Jack's words "his ONLY child" translate into "fifty twin sisters". Is Jack speaking in a code we don't know about???

It makes so much more sense when you put it that way. Instead of "even if they landed on something". Dude, if she landed on a deck she might crash right through. That would be nice.

KIDS! Are you jumping on those sea mattresses again??! XD

How to handle bad fanfiction:

1. Point at fanfic.
2. LAUGH.

As a fic-writer who edits and re-edits more often than an OCD sufferer washes his hands, shit like this gets up my nose something AWFUL.

Just checked out ch 2. She's not Will's sister, she's something even worse, his parallel. Sue is the child of a completely different pirate who sent his long-lost offspring an Aztec medallion. Now it doesn't even have the incest angle going for it.

Great journal, but just a small request- any chance we could morph this into a community? I would love you.

I stumbled upon this site after reading your Handpuppet theater and laughed greatly. I had to check this site out and again, more laughing 'cuz I had found a site to amuse me by posting PotC fanfic Mary Sue stories for my perusal :D I must say that it's even more amusing that my first try at PotC I actually wrote a Mary Sue *sighs* After the fact I could plainly see what I had done wrong and that I should've just kept that on my hard drive never to see the community's light of day. *laughs* Oh well, ya live, ya learn. This site is great though, amusing reading, thanks!
