Summary
"When something like a black cloud passed between her and them, she knew that it was either a whale swimming over her head, or a ship full of human beings, who never imagined that a pretty little mermaid was standing beneath them, holding out her white hands towards the keel of their ship."

Summary
“I beg your pardon, sir?”
“A magician,” Rear Admiral Pellew said again, no less firmly than before, his intellectual brow beetled with concern which, Hornblower felt, was not all due to the muddled state of his favored subordinate. “He will join you on board Lydia for your foray into the Adriatic, Captain.”

Summary
She.
That was what they called her - she, and she was to be the fastest clipper in the company even before she touched water. Even as she sat on the blocks at the top of the ways, they all spoke of her speed and glory, the way she would cut the waves.
She.
Not that she knew this, having no ears, no mind; she knew only as a rock knows - it is wet when it rains, it shakes when the Earth trembles, it frosts over in the winter, and in these ways a rock might know the world, but it is not a conscious effort on the rock's part.
Nor was it on hers. She simply was - from that first day, the laying of her keel, she was, and like a rock she might be many things; a rock might be picked up, or flung in anger, it might be a weapon or a talisman, it might be carved into an idol or a trinket or a child's toy.
As a rock, was she, from that very first day - she would be many things and known by many names, but all of them, she would be.
...and they called her she.
(NaNoWriMo 2018; experimental, vaguely poetic prose following the life of a ship through her journeys and refits, accidents, etcetera, instead of a standard character-driven plot. Updates daily with the day's writings.)

Summary
Dean Winchester is not the first pirate Captain Castiel Novak of Her Majesty's frigate The Seraph has been sent to capture, but he may very well be the last.

Drawn into a conspiracy that threatens everything Castiel believes in, Castiel must decide where his true allegiances lie. In the meantime, he must survive his time with the very pirate he was sent to capture, which seems unbearably easy when Dean insists on being so completely charming.

Summary
The moment the Trident of Poseidon was destroyed, a wave of freed raw magic swept the oceans. Magic however, like any natural force, cannot simply vanish. Energy does not disappear, it is transformed. So when mysterious phenomena begin to appear on the seas like never before, it is up to one very unlucky lady to find the magic and bind it. As if finding out that she is the daughter of Capitaine Chevalle wasn't drama enough for a lifetime...
Renamed from Curse of St. Elmo's Fire, because let's be honest the new title sounds better.

Summary
“Capitaine, it’s The Flame.”
Of course, of all the pirates that buccaneered in the Caribbean, she had to encounter the worst of them.
The Flame was the most dreaded pirate ship to date. No one could remember exactly when it had appeared, as very few sailors had survived an encounter with the frigate and its crew. It was rumoured to be led by the most vicious pirate; a heartless killer only known by their title: The Commander. Clarke felt beads of sweat run down her back, but it was with a poised voice that she gave her next order. “Ready the cannons!” -

When a mission turns sour, Eli and his closest lieutenant Ari find themselves at the mercy of pirates, but perhaps that is better than being at the mercy of the Cult.

Multiple Fics based on Stray Kids (that may or may not ever be finished)
1. Whiskey (Pirate AU, Chanlix, side Minsung) Updated!
↳“We don’t have any other options…” The argument faded as they moved away, and Chan was left with sweaty palms and a twisted stomach. The Broken Compass Flotilla.2. APEX (a/b/o, Chanlix)
↳Felix felt numb, and not at all in a good way. He kept going, kept walking east because there had to be a way for him to get out of this.3. The Overlapping of Edges (Warehouse 13 AU, Minsung) Updated!
↳Minho had lived a fairly long life. At the ripe age of 178, he’d seen plenty, done plenty; tasted, smelled, lived plenty. To the point where very little surprised him anymore. So he wasn’t expecting much from their new duty station.4. I Can Hear Music Playing... (Witch AU, BinSung)
↳Changbin opened a center, not a shop. A center. But he wasn't the first owner, and the walls were holding their breath. -

Summary
"In those quiet, dark hours, Blackbeard usually disappeared, leaving Ed to rattle around the cabin by himself. If he still curled up with the occasional cloak or cried himself to sleep, who was there to tell the difference? Look, Blackbeard just wasn’t fuckin’ a hundred percent all there, all right? A good fight was just what he needed to set him to rights, he was quite sure. And if he died out there… well. He’d never tried it before, had he? It wasn’t like anybody was waiting for him. Ed and his foolishness had made sure of that, hadn’t he?"
OR: “This time, I think I’m leaving for good,” Izzy said. “And I’m taking The Party Boat.” “Here’s the keys,” said Stede. “Rental return is by the docks next to the jerk chicken restaurant. Tell ‘em Stede sent you and they’ll forgive the late fees.”
--
Blackbeard strides on stage and gives the people what they came for. The real Ed fights for his life. Stede rescues his boys and endeavors to rescue his family. High-speed naval battles and hurt/comfort confessions ensue. With deepest apologies to the Aubrey-Maturin stories, Hunter S Thompson, AWOLNATION, Jacque Bergeret, and party boats.

Port of New Jersey: L'alleanza che abbiamo formato. by Yukimura_R

Summary
It’s August 2006. For thirty-one years, many a nation have prospered in the face of the Siren adversary – annihilating the monstrosities with only the deadliest of precision. The world’s nations remain united in the face of a singular enemy, and though alliances are currently tested, the tireless work the factions put in ensure that the world embraces an extra day of peace.
Things, however, are not always as they seem. One of the world’s most prominent scientists has gone missing – a researcher who had once been instrumental in developing the Energy Cube. Problematic under any circumstance, but one must ask themselves what could be worse – because it certainly is.
Commodore Justine Keal – Kansen commander from the Eagle Union and head of the New Jersey Naval Base – is tasked with solving the disappearance. The Eternal Flagship Vittorio Veneto, the pride of the Sardegna Empire, eagerly awaits her squadron’s arrival in Sicily – where the mystery took place. Yet Veneto, in her relentless pursuit to bring Sardegna to glory, has another reason to await this visit – whether the Eagles are truly committed to their mutual cause.

Summary
“How do you surpass the legend?” For Essex, it’s a question that’s haunted her since time immemorial.
Exercises and operations have always been opportunities to test her mettle – and she’s got the medals, commendations, and decorations as proof. She’s one of the Eagle Union’s greatest naval assets, and never has she been shy about sharing steps taken to climb to such a peak.
But maybe, the glory has never been good enough.
One day at the commander’s port, her latest defeat at the hands of Enterprise – her friend, and hero – threatens to upheave her place in the port. Faced with the rising pressure of living up to her own expectations, she can do little except brood – until she faces a reality where her goal amounts to an uncrossable mountain.
But mountains never need be crossed alone. Zuikaku, consistently impressed with Essex’s ingenuity, suggests they start training together. Confused, yet flattered, Essex agrees. And the more time they spend, the more familiar they become – of each other’s drives, perspectives, missions, and feelings.

Summary
Life wasn’t fair. Rodimus was bitterly, intimately aware of that fact. Life hadn’t been fair when he was forged into a once-grand city reduced to rust-pits and slums, or when the only way to keep his home from being taken had been to set it to the torch as those who could still run did their best to escape.
The worst unfairness, however, was now dead center in the sights of his spyglass. The Vis VItalis, captained by a mech who didn’t deserve his commission, let alone a place at the helm of the finest ship in the Prime’s fleet.

Summary
I don't really remember much, not even my own name! But I remember at one point being one of those dumb apes my 'sisters' seem to have such a hate-boner for. I'm not interested in fighting to be honest, but a girls gotta eat, right? and there's plenty of opportunity out there on the open ocean for someone willing to take the plunge! ( Get it? plunge? cause I'm a submarine? ah, forget it. )
Props to runes for helping edit previous chapters.
My first work of fiction, expect spelling, grammar, historical, fictional, tactical, strategic and theoretical errors throughout.
