I just need to emphasize that again.
Too tall, too skinny, awkward with girls.
(Lbr, he never really grows out of the last part.)
Can't grow anything but red peach fuzz he would be adorable.
THERE IS. A fanart that I love let me find the thing.
I more worried about teenage Natasha
chaerring: natasha is worrisome at any age XD
/whispers I need this into the sky
...she beat wolverine up as a teenager
...even tinier and geekier Jane, oh no
Do I need to app back just for this event???
Ugh ugh ugh I wish I knew what it was actually going to be because if this is it I will cry.
Sob teenage Jack and Hector.
/also quietly chalks that up to the list of the aus don't mind me you see nothing
I mean I'd have to find a suitable pb but I'm sure there is one out there somewhere.
Teenage Jack not wanting to be a pirate. And Teenage Hector wanting to be a pirate.
They'd bicker like old people.
They would.
I just.
They'd bond, too, because they'd be the only people from their world, too.
So they'd instantly become bffs, even if they disagree with each other.
One thing I know I want is for Hector to attempt to awkwardly hit on someone.
Because, you know, teenager, hormones.
I just. /smooshes own cheeks
I can see it, all shuffly-footed, he'd be precious.
I want this AU, now.
If this is the event, I will app back so fast.
Even if you don't, this is an au we can have.

I am forever okay with bbHector.
bbJack and slightly-older!bbHector.
Hector and more-worldly-but-younger Jack.
Yes.
I mean, lbr, at that point, Hector would have spent most of his time sailing on merchant vessels.
And just one deciding you know what, fuck this. I'm gonna be a pirate.
And Jack, traveling around with Teague, running away because fuck the pirate lifestyle.
They'd run into each other in some scummy bar.
In the ass end of nowhere.
They would. And the seat next to them would be one of the only open seats.
And they'd get talking and telling stories and

Be bffs before the night's over.
They would be.
And they'd end up going off on some adventure with each other, too. Because Jack knows all the local stories, and besides, treasure.
He might not want to be a pirate, but who can resist treasure???
Because you know at some point Hector would have thrown that out there.
That he was thinking of turning pirate because money.
Because bbHector would not be nearly as bloodthirsty or suspicious as his canon counterpart.
Oh nooooooo
And Jack, who's hadn't learned not to be too trusting, would just. "Oh hey, you need money, because I know of a treasure."
And they'd set off. And it would be some stupidly supernatural nonsense because of course it would.
Jack doesn't know any adventures that's not supernatural.
And there'd be Hector who'd never seen so much as a ghost.
And Jack, who's been on supernatural adventures and takes a lot of things for granted at this point.
Hector just like. This might actually be above my paygrade, whoops.
"Ghosts are real???" "Yeah, man. The ghost of Cortes helped teach me to swordfight."
"Well, he were a bloody awful teacher, weren't he.
Because of course Hector's already good with a sword, why not.
"Considering he's been dead for years, I'd say he did a pretty good job."
Lbr, Hector would still be better than Jack at sword fighting.
Hector's like one of those...Uncannily naturally talented people, lbr.
Just like Jack with his aim.
But oh no, bb bickering.
bb bickering
They'd still be ridiculously stupid.
I just want them fighting back to back
Yes.
They'd be so badass
They would be.
But oh my God, can you imagine how terrible they'd be at their canon ages if they'd been lifelong friends??
They'd be the biggest brats, it's horrible.
They'd be so horrible. They'd get to a point where they wouldn't even need words to have a conversation.
Just a look. Not even a look. Just the thought of a look.
Just the thought of a look.
They might as well communicate telepathically.
Right?
And if they're both Pirate Lords, they'd be a terror.
Because lbr, they'd be the only pirate lords who could actually for real stand each other?
So of course if you're going to vote for something, you have to at least outvote those assholes.
Because they go as a package deal.
I just.
They'd take the Court by storm.
They would. And it would still be fair and by the Code.
So all Teague could do is shrug at whiners.
Especially since Jack was raised knowing the Code.
The rest of the Court protesting and Jack, standing there smug as Teague just kanye shrugs.
I'm just.
It's the best thing.
I need Jack and Hector being actual BFFs.
