@chubbiestcow's post about James' obsession with Jack (hurricane scene) made me think about another scene when James does something unexpected (highly unexpected) and it's all because of Jack and it makes people around like "WTF".
James in CotBP (canon version):
James and the same scene in early draft:
In both versions he is like "Oh, let him go!". His people are shocked. They expect that he, a commodore, will say something like "Catch him!". They remember how he always tries to catch Jack. But nah. They hear "Oh you know what? Let's be kind and give this man his freedom. We can catch him tomorrow or... whatever".
And the early version? James Norrington, That James Norrington, helps Jack to escape. He frees him. He comes to Jack's cell and he frees him. All people are like "Oh no, he escaped! Someone helped him! Oh commodore, oh governor, someone helped him! But WHO?!", even Will & Lizzie are shocked, and James fucking Norrington stands there with poker face and is like "Yeah, yeah, what a news, yeah that's intriguing, who did it, I don't know, I don't know" and he still has that key. What a man. People are like "So... our cannons can stop him!" and James is like "Oh dear, no, relax".
And that moment in canon when he talks to Will and is like "Yeah, I knew that Jack's friends would come and try to save him..." - okay, James, you knew. But... you also HOPED, huh? 😉
Gillette is confused. He is sooo confused. "Then Gillette gets it". What, Gillette? That your boss is obsessed with this pirate? That your boss fell for "the worst pirate (...)"? That he doesn't want to kill him? (and he CAN'T). But he needs to catch him (see him) again? Yeah.
Oh you, James Norrington! You fell so hard for Jack. So hard that sometimes you sabotage own plans and your people's actions 😉 (James, are you aware?)

Reminds me of March 1968 when Lyndon Johnson preempted The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour to announce he was not going to seek a second term.
And that's how we ended up with Richard Nixon.
Good luck, America. You're gonna need it.
(Please prove me wrong)

I realize I never really posted anything here, I told the few that I felt might miss me, but here is the offical note, I deciceded to stop using tumblr.
The only reason why is that I do not really have energy enough for a lot of social media, and that I am currently enjoying Twitter (believe it or not) and Bluesky more. And those two are enough for me.
So I will just say thank you to those who have been around, and heck, should you want to follow me on either of them, the links for them are in my pinned post (on twitter it would make a welcome break from porn and artbots) and I do stream on twitch regularly as well.
I wish you guys all the best, and I hope you enjoy your time on Tumblr!
(I will be here until a certain someone's story is done, because I need to see what Indryr fucks up, and after that is done, I'm out properly ^^)
I also realize I forgot, I made a wordpress site for my random little blurbs that fall into my head, if you want to read them, their on this site right here
Love from Iza ^^

I love Hiyori.
He's so funny. Because you have all this hella smart characters with high comprehension of people behaviour who spend day and night schemming.
And then there's him.
He's smart, a social butterfly, a great detective and rich. And he's not going to waste his time playing plotting games.
It's like he pulled Mr. Crocker's power roulette and it fell in "a secret third thing".
Martyrs what? Heroes what? Villains what?
Nah, he'd rather use his powers for selling lettuce.
