Also, I'll need to know whether you want an object or a phrase so I can select a random one for you. Thankyou! The objects and phrases are listed so you know what you're getting yourself into. Scenarios 1. Somebody has stowed away on a ship. What happens after he’s discovered? 2. It’s Christmas on the Black Pearl?

What else is there for him beyond his own command? 18. On a hot Caribbean day, pirate loot makes a cool, refreshing bed. Nothing better than the refreshing touch of Spanish gold on bare skin. And nothing more impressive for an uninitiated partner. 19. When left to look after the ship, there are several things two people can get up to… 20. When someone hears that Jack Sparrow has been caught in another Port and hanged to death, they are riddled with pain.

Is there any possibility of him giving up his hatred? 26. After what he’s seen, Will gets paranoid. Any superstitions he might have chanced to believe in could now be true.

Ownership of a flute, and proficiency thereon, was at one time regarded
in a 29.

The Interceptor is a three masted brig, the Dauntless a 36 gun frigate, like the Black Pearl.

It involves him being slung into a fantasy with the writer. Who is it, and what does he do about it? 66. Torn for their unrequited love, someone is in dire need of expressing themself.
