You know, I think him getting his heart cut out might have hurt more than me getting my wisdom teeth out. Doesn't feel like it right now, but I bet it did. *G* But it's sort of hard to imagine that, so I had to improvise. I'm glad you liked the description.
as well as the hint of quite human glee at the prospect of one-upping Jack with the bigger and better-gunned ship
I like humor. There are others far better with it than me, but I do my best when I can find the opportunity (like the glob of spit).
I think Calypso might just be a mere nymph; I don't think she was ever a goddess. But this is fiction, and I suppose it's OK. I just like that Will's read or paid attention to an education enough to KNOW about the mythological gods like this. I like to think Elizabeth taught him, or maybe Jack told a couple of stories, too.
