Taking advantage of two days worth of free time, the BLU Sniper known as Drake Agnew and the grey coated BLU Medic, Ulrich Fuchs, where out in the middle of the woods camping. The big Aborigine making sure that their little camp was not to far away, having set up within re-spawn range, but well away from civilization and 'most' of the other human members in the employ of BLU. Both men where armed with their usual weapons and their little camp consisted of a fire, one large sleeping bag, Drake having somehow 'forgotten' Ulrich's, which meant that they'd have to share and a few supplies.
Ulrich was not a big fan of the outdoors, never had been, but had willingly come along without complaint because he knew how much Drake loved being outdoors. Said Sniper having disappeared earlier into the darkness to find them dinner with the promise he wouldn't be long, leaving the German safely back at camp. Sitting quietly near the small fire that painted his pale features orange and red as he read a thick medical journal, occasionally stopping to tend the flames and look around at the dark forrest, listening to the sounds of the wilderness.
Closing it with a soft thump, Ulrich finally set his book aside before leaning back, looking up and contemplating the stars above, Drake having made sure they had a wonderful view of the starry night sky, a sickle moon bathing the nighttime world below in soft blue. As a small smile tugged at Ulrich's thin lips, he still didn't like camping, but he couldn't deny that this was romantic; now if only his lover was here to enjoy it with him...
A soft rustle amongst the trees and the sudden feeling of being watched however made Ulrich pause, snaping him out of his musings before sitting up and scanning the woods. His instincts telling him someone was out there.... Somehow knowing that it wasn't Drake. Another rustle nearby made his head snap to the sound, his face in it's usual blank expression as he elegantly stood up, even as his heart sped up in his chest, dark eyes sharp and searching. An animal? A fellow BLU out in the woods? A stalking RED perhaps? A Marked One...? Either way he couldn't see past the meager light of the campfire, as who or what ever it was watching him was sure to do so just beyond the reach of the firelight.
"Who iz zhere...?" He asked aloud, dark eyes scanning the darkness.


Ok, this is a really crappy "attempted" Holloween-type RP start, this is open to any character, nice or bad!

After many weeks of screaming swearing and pulling my hair out (I'm almost bald now!), after a bad computer crash. I'm officially up and running again!

Now I'm playing catch-up and finnaly posting the next part of "Pearls in the Deep", as well as reposting the now betaed part 1 of said fic. 

*lets out a happy squeal* And I can't believe it. While I was gone there was a giant ejaculation of Meckett fics! Yay! *scuttles away to read said fics*

http://dodgy-sparrow.deviantart.com/art/Beckett-s-distant-cousin-57314595  Poor Beckett. You have to have seen the starburst commercials to understand this one.

http://kinoko19.deviantart.com/art/Little-Becky-59998086  Aw! Little Becky so kawaii!

   I've got a friend who's big into a game called 'Kingdom Hearts' and yesterday she saw me looking at some pics of Cutler Beckett from PotC, when she pointed to Mercer and chirped, "Hey! Its Xigbar!"
  
Needless to say I had absolutely no idea of what she was talking about, "No. That's Mercer. Beckett's kick-ass assassin/clerk/boytoy." 

But she was insistent "Its Xigbar!" and proceeded to show me a bunch of pics of this "Xigbar". I've never played Kingdom Hearts II (though I see a ton of commercials, fics and fanart for it everywhere), and so am unfamiliar with the overall story line and characters. But I can't deny some of the similarities...

Their both probably about the same height, similar builds, their both covered in scars, have long dark hair slicked back in a low ponytail and like to wear dark cloths. And most importantly their both, i.e. the Pirate movies and the game, are both tied to Disney and the game even goes into the PotC universe. She hypothesized that maybe this Xigbar was actually Mercer in his previous life before he became heartless (whatever the heck that means) and part of the Organization XIII. He even has an eye patch over the same eye that Davy Jones popped one of his tentacles out of Mercer's head. She says that this Xigbar's character in the game is totally different from Mercer's far more quite and serious personality, but maybe that was caused by having Davy 's tentacles worming through his head and scrambling his brain. Perhaps he was changed somehow from his time in the Locker, and somehow got pointed ears, powers and his eye color changed.  *shrugs*
I'm still not sure about it... But it's fun to think about non the less ~_^.

Title: Pearls in the Deep

Rating: PG-13, so far
Pairing: Slash, Sparrington, Gillette/Groves
Disclaimer: Disney owns most of these characters (with the exception of a few of my own OC) and the setting in which they live.

Notes: I’ve been into PotC fandom since the first movie came out, but this is my first PotC fic and is a AU since this takes place after CotBP but ignores the DMC (even though I liked the movie and have a few of the characters from it show up). Forgive any horrible historical inaccuracies, I’m just doing this for entertainment.

I must confess that this fic was inspired by Oasis_herself’s wonderful “A Fish Tail” fic (hope you don’t mind?), and reading Hellboy graphic novels before bedtime ~_^.

Now beta-read and edited by the lovely and talented Rennie (aka Rennie1265), I bow down to her vast knowledge and wonderful nit-picking. I love you! And shout out to Miss April Grant who originally betaed the first third of this chapter.

 A few little snippets if James Norrington, Jack Sparrow, Cutler Beckett, Mercer, Elizabeth and William Turner ever sat down and had dinner together. This crack-dribble came about after talking with ansketil_rose and reading her Beckington story. I'm stealing a few of her ideas ~_^. Forgive any spelling or grammer errors!

  Five people sat around a large ornate dinning table, heavily laden with silverware, crystal and many specially prepared platters of food, a few servants waiting in the wings lest any of the odd assortment of guests at the table need anything.

Whaaaa! I think I've scared off another beta-reader, this is like the fith one! *sigh* ~_~ My writing must really SUCK.

What do you guys think? Is it fairly safe to asume that after getting small portion of you fic betad, the date being 4/12/2007, and then hearing nothing after words (ie its now 6/21/2007 ). Is it safe to say that I've been dropped again?
