Summary
An AU of my James Norrington/OC story, Catch the Wind, prompted by a reader on Tumblr, in which Elizabeth (and not James) is the one to find Theodora Byrne after she falls into the world of Pirates of the Caribbean. Untrusting of this strange newcomer, her behaviour, and her motives, as well as what her intentions might be as far as the Swanns are concerned, James vows to keep a close eye on her so she can get up to no mischief. Then, after a time, he can't help but watch her anyway.
Will only follow the first bit of the story, up to the events of the first movie - because after a certain point it would just converge with Catch the Wind and end up being the exact same story all over again with one or two changes at most.

Summary
"You have to come with me," he shook his head.
His tone offered little room for argument, but she didn't care a bit.
"Why?" Theodora demanded.
"Because, Miss Byrne, to the great sorrow of the both of us, my saving you means that you are my responsibility until another steps forward to take over that role. Should you get yourself killed out here through sheer force of foolishness, it is a stain upon my character as well as your own. Now, will you come with me, or will you force me to drag you?"
**
When Theodora Byrne wakes up one morning, no longer in her cozy modern bed, but adrift at sea - and on a sea that's home to pirates, both undead and living, no less - she has no choice but to rely on the charity, and the eventual kindness, of Captain James Norrington if she wants to survive. She has no way of knowing the feelings that kindness will soon foster...nor what she'll be willing to risk for a chance to save him from his tragic fate before the end.

Summary
James is up to no good, per usual. Helping convicted murderers escape prison, getting kicked out of Oxford. No doubt worrying his lover to no end. So, what is a night snuck away, to forget it all, and most importantly make sure she knows he's still thinking of her.

Summary
They were leaving. That had been the plan from the moment James had slipped out the window, landing lightly beside him on the docks- face eerily grim for a man who usually smiles so easily.
How on earth did it go so terribly wrong?
