“i’m sorry, but are you in the right house?” (one jack sparrow is standing in thomas’s office and thomas is frankly more confused and miffed than either dismayed or alarmed. he’s got terrible self-preservation skills, what can i say)

Jack knew, whole and fully well, that he had miscalculated by one or a dozen windows, and most certainly entered the wrong building. However, out of politeness he did make a slight show of looking around just to be doubly sure, before facing the rather befuddled lordling he’d stepped in on with the intent of escaping via that window. 

“‘Fraid not,” He agreed solemnly, “Seem to have misplaced myself – happens all the time,” He offered a quick, disarming smile, and pointed toward the window before remembering that wasn’t how the gentry did things, and turning instead toward the door he’d just walked through. “I’ll see myself out, shall I?”

❝ it’s the same story over & over again. you’d think people would know better by now. ❞ [ @ weatherby, from one (1) cynical james mcgraw ]

The smile that crossed Weatherby’s features was a patient one, even if he felt anything but at present. Hands folded behind his back spoke more to his posture than to what he was hiding, which was just as well considering his grip was so tense it announced only too clearly his displeasure with their present discourse. 

“You have, perhaps, become quite accustomed to the Hamiltons and their view of the world,” He observed mildly, neither condemning nor condoning said worldview, “But you were not always so understanding of their ideas. Perhaps it would behoove you to think back on your own stances, to the way you viewed the world before, and consider both how and why you shifted your position. If you wish for people to – as you say – know better – then perhaps you should start by considering how information is being introduced or withheld. Not all of us can be so lucky in our enlightenment as to have friends like the Hamiltons, after all.”
