Like! Like! :D Very good gap-filler. I really liked how you wrote Calypso. I liked the more formal speech she used at first. Then she sort of segued into cranky Greek goddess mode. :P
I've always liked the idea that Will would end up talking to and hearing a ship like Jack does. Though maybe that's just because I like Will with Jack, and if Jack hears the ship then why not Will? Anyway, I really like that you hinted at it here, as well as the hint of good natured (hopefully) bickering between he and Jack over who's better. :P
I also love how you touched on the fact that nothing was said about Will not being able to go onto other ships. As long as he's not on land somehow, he should be fine. How else would he go to collect new crew? That was one plothole I latched onto early one. Rather desperately, truth be told. ;)
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.
Wouldn't anyone who lived in a port town have some knowledge of the sea mythology anyway? Especially if his father was a sailor? Granted, he wouldn't be home much, but enough to pass on a story or two, I would think. It's nice to have him already know something on his own, lol.
On an almost unrelated note: Orly cut his hair?? Dang, last I saw it was short enough. *Whimpers* Why does everyone who looks good in long hair cut it?
