No Sympathy for Elizabeth

I cross-posted my Norrington fic over at _norrington, where it's been getting some positive feedback. I know it's the particular audience, but there's not a lot of sympathy for Elizabeth over there, especially on the subject of how she promised Norrington she would marry him if he rescued Will, and then reneged.

I empathize with that position. On the other hand, Norrington was a bit of a fool to accept her bargain in the first place. Someone who offers marriage as a reward for saving their beloved is likely to either find some reason not to go through with the marriage, or not be someone you want as a spouse.

There have been several requests for "more" from the group, so I will continue with the story. An eager audience can be an effective muse.
