Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, Edward Teague —Aesthetic
Tumblr media
Captain Edward Teague's Character & Personality
Teague is a buccaneer pirate who's the illegitimate father of Jack and owner of the jail dog. He's also the Pirate Lord of Madagascar and keeper of the Brethren Court's Code. As the Keeper of the Pirate's Code, Teague respects the Code enough to kill anyone who disrespects it, even if it's a brief mention of hanging the Code. He has shot Code-breakers in the head with no more emotion than when crushing a roach. To Teague, the Code isn't only the law, it's everything. He has candor, rigorous personal integrity and uncompromising commitment to the Code. This earned Teague the fear and respect of the other Pirate Lords of the Brethren Court. With an aristocratic bearing, he's a fearsome figure, but with unmistakable touches of sweetness and vulnerability towards his son. Teague has a fearsome temper, but he has some sense of morality. At some point in his life, he took up the guitar and became quite good at playing it. Teague mainly plays it in the Pirate Hall. Although he's captain of a ship, he's a "stay at home" and withdrawn kind of pirate; having done most of his adventuring in his younger days. Teague is quite reserved and dignified in times of victory. Many parts of his life are quite mysterious. When someone would ask him something about his past, Teague's usual reply was: "Sea turtles, mate!"

Do you think in the scene where they bring out the Code Elizabeth took one look at Captain Teague, did a double take, and just went to Barbossa "Hold on is that Jack's dad" "Yeah that's Jack's dad...they look alike dont they, you can really tell" "Your right, they do"
and then later mentioned it to Will
"Hey Will you see that captain over there with the red coat, black hair and trinkets in his hair" "Yeah??" "Who does he remind you of?" "Jack, why?" "That's Jack's dad" "Really wow...didn't we just trade his son to the British Navy??" "....oh god"

rewatching pirates of the caribbean and looking at the Jack Sparrow family tree made me realize a very funny thing.
Tumblr media
Edward Teague is Jacks father.
Tumblr media
He is losely based on Edward Teach.
(I know there's a Blackbeard in Pirates of the Caribbean, who is called Edward Teach, but let's ignore that for a second. Blackbeard is a name losely used for any captain who has the vibe honestly.)
If Edward Teague aka Jack Sparrows Dad was Blackbeard....
he-
Tumblr media
would be Jacks Dad.
And Stede would be his Mom.
Tumblr media
Jack Sparrow has gay parents.
Tumblr media
Let me live that fantasy please

Some random headcanons about Redd because she’s the best and I’m just now finding out she has a fanbase:
She actually has no real given name. She’s gone by a lot of names over the years; Ruby, Crimson, Scarlett, Rose, Carmine. Anything that means “red”. But Redd is the name she likes the most, so it’s what she introduces herself as
She may or may not be a cousin of Jack Sparrow. None of the family really knows, but her mother took on her father (Edward Teague’s brother) as a frequent client over the years so they’re pretty sure the kid is his.
Edward Teague felt responsible for Redd after she was born and took her under his wing. He was the closest thing to a father she ever had.
When she was about 18-19 she was auctioned off (like in the ride) but she eventually shot her “husband” and went off on her own.
Jack took the blame for the crime cause he just so happened to be there to try to break her out. Only Edward knows and plans to take the secret to the grave.
Redd can be just as chaotic if not moreso than Jack, to the point where sometimes even he struggles in keeping up with her
To be petty he refuses to ever call her Captain despite her very much being her. Instead Jack will always call her “Rusty Redd”
She LOVES dad jokes. She’s the only soul alive who’s genuinely laughed at Uncle Jack’s terrible jokes
Redd’s got a bit of a drinking problem but she’s able to manage it pretty well.
She HATES chicken. Ever since she was little they’ve had a weird vendetta against her so she refuses to eat them
Redd is just about the only person who never gets mad when Jack betrays her. If anything she expects it. And sometimes she’ll get a good betrayal on him too
She loves to sing and dance her heart out, but she’s not very good at either

new chapter!!! <3 preview under the cut. . .
As the sun inches toward the sea, a group of Teague’s men enter the room in preparation for the ceremony. Looming at the edges of the room, Jack watches them wrap the corpse in linens. 
Jack has yet to decide whether or not he will divulge the king’s unsavory secret to her subjects. If he chooses the path of exposure, the burial might just be the most advantageous place to do so. Will Captain Swann’s calm demeanor from the night prior remain steadfast when the eyes of Teague’s brethren are fixed upon her? 
Reluctantly, Jack knows that he will struggle to keep his own demeanor when the time comes. He trails behind the funeral procession, hands stuffed into his pockets, eyes askance and brow furrowed. The men who carry the body to the beach cast nervous glances at him. When they lock eyes, he gives them the  occasional nod. It isn’t the body he’s worried about now, it's how it got here. 
They reach the shore, where the body is placed into a longboat that is half-lodged in the sand, ready to be pushed out to sea to meet the Troubadour , waiting just offshore to watch the flames consume Edward Teague. 
A sizable crowd has gathered, with lanterns and flowers and fruits. Elizabeth’s face is illuminated by a candle. She holds the flame in both hands as night begins to shroud the ceremony. And she gives Jack a smile as he falls in line beside her, though Jack has done nothing to indicate what he shall be doing about her and her secret assassination. 
Perhaps she has made up her own truths, or perhaps she is trying to ensure that she receives his mercy, for she places a hand on his shoulder in a show of comfort that he does not care for. 
The quartermaster is the first to say a few words about Captain Teague and his legacy, during which several old sea dogs stagger forward to chime in, garnering sad laughter and cheers from the crowd. Jack ignores most of it, save for the stories that he remembers. 
The few remaining crewmen from those days are looking at him, gauging his reaction. Elizabeth touches him again, and he lets her gently runs a hand over his back. If he appears to be in mourning, perhaps the others will stow away their judgements. 
After the quartermaster has said his piece, he cedes the floor to Elizabeth, to speak on behalf of the Brethren. She gives Jack’s shoulder a squeeze, then steps forward to address the crowd. Too well versed is she in diplomacy, he thinks as she begins her speech, too eloquent for a crowd of rotten scoundrels such as this. Perhaps that is why they seem to fawn over her, lowering their hats in respect and suppressing their drunken outbursts. 
Jack can ruin this for her, if he wants to. 
The inhabitants of Shipwreck may not pay him the respect they pay their darling English royalty, but he can change that in an instant. All it would take is a handful of words. He would merely have to summon his voice, step out of the line of mourners, point a finger, and he could take that from her. 
continue on ao3. . .

Rumour has it you have got a Potc plot bunny in the works?
Oh dear, is it going to breach discord containment? 😂
But yeah I do! And it’s been haunting my mind every day lmao - I’m so quietly obsessed with the idea and getting my grubby hands all over the characters.
Context for non-discord people:
I wanna write a female!Jack story.
——————— (Taken from discord)
Jacqueline Teague was born in the middle of a typhoon aboard the Misty Lady, and she knew the rocking of a ship in the wild sea long before the steady feel of land under her feet - and it showed.
(Miles and miles away, deep in the swamps of Cuba, surrounded by trinkets and humid air and the bitter tang of memories, a bound goddess tilted her head back and hummed, thoughtful and amused and satiated.)
Little Jack was as wild as the waves and free as a bird, and even from a young age Edward looked at his daughter and knew she was going to shake the world.
And she did. Oh, she did.
But the world was a cruel place and it left its mark on Jack just as deeply as she did it.
——————
Other elements include:
Jack not acknowledging that she’s the daughter of Edward fucking Teague for the longest time, so her lineage is only really known by the older generation of pirates, and when it comes out that she basically the equivalent of pirate royalty Will and Elizabeth and Barbossa and the rest are blown away
We'll explore Jack’s relationship with Tia Dalma, how long they've known each other, and heavily imply that Jack is 'god-touched' because Calypso likes her
So much symbolism with Jack's hair. All the symbolism.
Jack and the Pearl and the connection there
And exploring these core relationships and how they shaped Jack:
Salazar and the whole significance of him giving Jack her new name, and so feeling some kind of inherent claim on Jack because there is power in that - and there being an undeniable connection between them that was forged on the day she tricked and killed him
Barbossa and the betrayal and all the bitterness between them, and him slowly realising that while the Pearl was still the fastest, deadliest vessel on the water; she would always be faster, deadlier with Jack’s hands on her wheel. Seeing Jack again after ten years is the closest he comes to feeling anything since they parted - since he parted them, turning on his young, bright, brilliant captain. And Barbossa hating that he itches every time she calls him 'Barbossa' instead of 'Hector'
Beckett and his fucked up possessiveness over Jack, because he met her when she was young and brilliant and just making a name for herself and she was so wild, so different from any woman he'd ever met, and the impression stuck. In another world, they might have even loved each other, but he wanted the one thing Jack refused to surrender - her freedom
Davy Jones knowing the second they pull this sodden, grief and rage-filled girl from the water that she’s marked, and he can practically taste Calypso’s hands on her sun-tanned skin; and while a part of him snarls at it another part of him wants to take something else from his old lover, even if it’s a Favoured slip of a girl. He makes the deal thinking he’ll get the best damn helmsman on the sea at the end of it - even though it feels like the very winds are laughing at him for thinking he might be the one to chain another wilful woman from her nature
Elizabeth still being in love with the idea of Jack, because here is a woman that spits in the face of everything society tries to tell them to be - and a part of her wants with a soul-deep ache
And Will also being somewhat entranced by Jack, just like he is in canon, because there's something undeniably other about her and as someone who longs for adventure, he can't help but want to press closer.
I've got so many fucking ideas for this - the discord chat is full of little snippets and ramblings 🤣🤣

the fact that Jack was so calm in front of mermaids, sea monsters, pirates, dead people, dinosaurs, gods, tigers, witches and more but as soon as he saw his father's ship in the distance he turned pale with fear says alot.
Like: even fitz says he has never seen him so scared in almost a year of traveling together.
that boy has risked his life at the least 10 times in 10 different ways and yet the scariest thing for him is his father? Damn Teague you really fucked up

POTC: OST Musical fan concept synopsis (cruise line version)
TW: mention of self harm and pregnancy, discussion of abuse
The ladies enter the stage and begin to gossip. One lass said she had one rumor to share. 
At King George II’s courtroom. King’s guards bring up Jack because he escapes and Gibbs got the Sao’s map. The reason why Jack was brought here to the king is that the king need him to search for the Fountain of Youth before the Spanish claimed it again. Although Jack has already searched before, except he never drank the water from the fountain. Barbossa appears with a peg leg and reunites with Jack and told him that he joins as a privateer and lost the pearl 3 years ago which made Jack pissed at him. Jack escapes again and led Barbossa to ask Gibbs for a map to join his conspiracy for his “plan”
Gossipers said that Barbossa got a peg leg and lost the pearl which pissed Jack off. One said that Jack is questioning his immortality because he never once drank from the fountain after he found it in St. Augustine. Also, Barbossa was angered at Jack for wronging him and Jack accuses him of bribery for his “plan”. One says that Jack’s father, Captain Edward Teague told his son about the two chalices where treasures are rare and kept in the cave that Ponce stored, and also Teague told his son about Captain Stephen Cole.
Gossipers described Cole as tall and majestic yet more terrifying than Blackbeard. And people treat him as their king.
Jack reunited with Angelica, his lover/fwb from 10 years ago. Angelica was upset with Jack because he promised to return to her home city, Havana when they start their relationship and decided to become a pirate to search for Jack for years and became a second mate to Stephan Cole. She told him about taking Cole to the Fountain of Youth and Jack agrees since the King orders him to go to the fountain. Also, she told him about the Carnival in Tortuga and Jack agrees. 
Gossipers said that when they first met, Jack thought the convent was a brothel. Angelica was charmed by him. However, he sees Angelica as someone else during the few months of their relationship. And some say he uses her to cope for cannot handle the previous women he met in his life. 
At the courtyard, Gibbs was confronted by Privateer Barbossa along with Royal Navy officers, Joseph and Daniel for recruiting him for his “plan” and the map that Gibbs. Gibbs agrees to join the conspiracy and burns the map. Barbossa was shocked and asks Gibbs why he burns the map because Gibbs memorized the map during his sailor years. Nevertheless, Barbossa happily welcomes Gibbs to his company.
Meanwhile, Angelica introduces Jack to Captain Stephen Cole, the most popular pirate of them all. And discusses the fountain and wanting to drink from the fountain to make him look young again. Jack says that the water from the fountain will solve his immortality issues and it will make him immortal. Cole mentions that he fought battles with ships and shrank them as his ship in the bottle collection, and it includes Jack’s beloved Black Pearl, and owned Queen Anne’s Revenge after Blackbeard’s death. Cole told Jack after they drank the water from the fountain, he’ll give him back his Black Pearl. Jack agrees.
Gossipers said that both Jack and Cole are insecure in their own ways and think the Fountain of Youth will solve them. Jack has high hopes that he’ll get his Pearl back from Cole.
They went to Tortuga where the Carnival celebration was held. As they went there, Cole was filled with pride when the crowd cheered for him, but the soothsayer come up with him and told him to better watch out on Friday the 13th of March. However, Cole didn’t care what the soothsayer predicted. Everyone celebrated until the storm came. Jack and Angelica went damped and they have to find the shelter until they found it. 
Gossipers said they “do that thing” tonight. They say that Angelica wants more intimacy than affection. But she didn't want to admit her feelings for him.
The next day, at HMS Providence, Barbossa brought Gibbs to the ship. Gibbs claims there are three Spanish ships that sail towards them. Barbossa orders his men but the Spanish ships sailed away without igniting the cannons. However, Barbossa deduces that for the Spanish, the fountain is their prize and not sink, and knew Providence will fall behind to pursue the fountain. Barbossa orders his crew to begin sailing.
A few weeks later, back at Revenge, the crew sword fighting and cannons fired to get supplies from merchant ships. After they collect supplies, they cheered.  As they reach St. Augustine, Angelica and Jack spend time with each other. Jack told her about his love for the sea. And so Angelica, she want freedom. After they arrived, Angelica collects “mermaid tears” (sea glass) from the shore and put them in her little bagful, and said it was for Cole’s ritual. As the crew went to the ow, they compliment how beautiful the town is and the townspeople of Augustine praise Cole, too. Gibbs appears again, and Jack asks Gibbs why he was there. Gibbs said that He’ll spy on Cole. Meanwhile, Barbossa traded an emerald to venom from the venomous snake for his sword from the market. As they headed to the cave, Angelica told Cole that she had a dream that Cole died on Friday the 13th of March. As they arrived at the cave, Cole orders Jack to get two chalices and then left both Jack and Angelica at the hotel.
Gossipers said that Cole want Jack to get lost and die in the cave to find two chalices.
Before Jack enters the cave, Angelica told him that she heard that the cave is like a maze, she brought a ball of yarn and gives it to Jack so he could find the way out after he got two chalices and then he enters the cave with the string. Then Barbossa and his crew arrive and Barbossa’s only one enters the cave and follows the string where Jack walks. Then Angelica felt sick, and she quickly goes back to the town where the doctor’s office is located. While finally there, Angelica began catches feelings for Jack.
At the cave, Jack pulled the string of yarn as Angelica said while searching for the chalices. When he carefully goes through, he found the treasure that Ponce stored and finally saw the chalices. But he reunited Barbossa because he was ordered by the King to get the chalices for the fountain. Barbossa also explains about the Spanish stole the chalices from a long time ago. The two stole the chalices, left the cave, and went to the Spanish camp.
Meanwhile, Angelica left the doctor’s office, she said she was stated by the doctor that she was pregnant with Jack’s child, not being sick. She returns to the hotel
Gossipers said that she kept her pregnancy a secret from Cole due to her affair with Jack. 
Back at the camp, Jack was told by Barbossa that his sword has snake venom. After they stole the other chalice, both got tied up around the palm trees. Barbossa said that his desire for revenge against Cole was because Cole made fun of him for being emotionally grieving over his late lover’s passing. He and Cole have a feud and got offended by Cole called him "snake". About his peg leg, he battleship with Cole and he cut off his leg in self-harm and grieving over Cole stealing the Pearl and his monkey, Jack. After this, Cole made a false rumors about Barbossa and everyone (except the Turners) turning against him. While on exile, he became a privateer. And he also didn’t like Cole’s popularity that he was jealous of. Jack agrees to help Barbossa to assassinate Cole. they escape the camp with chalices.
Gossipers said that when Angelica went back to the hotel, Jack went to the hotel, and he climbed to the balcony of her home. Then, both have a conversation.
Jack calls Angelica “bossy” and selfish when Cole was around. Angelica reveals that she was stuck on being “used” and “perfect”, and she never asks him to take Cole to the fountain, she is doing it for Cole.  This shocks Jack and he told his plan for Angelica until Cole enters the room and Jack escapes.
Gossipers said Cole finds out that Angelica having an affair with Jack and betrays him for helping Jack escape from the cave. Then, Cole cuts Angelica’s hair, dreadfully.
The next day, the crew went to the Fountain of Youth, Jack freed Gibbs and starts continuing going to the fountain. As they finally arrive, Cole blinded Jack with his mirror reflected by the sun. And then Barbossa and his crew arrived and they begin battle. The battle was interrupted by the Spanish and they claim the fountain was a hoax, they left after they demolished the fountain.  Before running out of time, Angelica collects water into chalices and puts mermaid tears in each chalice, and waits for the tears to dissolve. Cole drank it finally and he felt look young again. But then, Barbossa and his crew assassinate Cole with many gunshots and stab wounds. Barbossa finally stabs Cole and injected him with venom. While Cole was weak and has few minutes to live, he asks Angelica, “And you?”, Jack threw his pistol at Angelica and she shoots him dead, finally. Cole died on Friday the 13th of March. Angelica ask Jack if he would like to have a drink but Jack declines. Jack’s eyes became better after being blinded by the mirror light.
The crew returns to the town with Cole’s dead body. Cole’s Cabin Boy said that he died by ambition. He said that Angelica, Barbssa, and the rest are noble people. The Boy said Cole left all his fortune to all. And the mob turns angry and turns against Barbossa and his crew and Jack, Angelica, and their crew, too. Jack finally got his Pearl in the bottle back from late Cole and Barbossa taking over Revenge and Jack stole Dying Gull from the harbor and they flee to Tortuga from the angry mob.
At night, after they escape from the mob, Jack, Angelica, and the others briefly stay on the island. Angelica hinted to Jack that she had a child with him.
Meanwhile, Barbossa is now the new Revenge captain of the ship, reunited with his beloved monkey, Jack and he and his crew make their way to Tortuga so people view him as the new popular and powerful pirate than Cole. Barbossa became a master of his fate.
The next morning, Angelica woke up and finds out she was deserted alone and being left by Jack. She felt betrayed by him. Gossipers said that Angelica had an honest comment about Jack. Angelica called Jack a “reckless scoundrel” and also realized that she’s also used by him, upsetting. 
One lady asks, did Angelica forgives Jack. Gossipers said yes. The gossipers paused until they realized they have a similar thing as Angelica and began blunting about it.

During 1691, Jack Teague was born during a typhoon aboard a pirate ship. Named after the brother of his father, Edward Teague, Jack grew up without his unknown mother amid the seafaring outlaws at Shipwreck Cove on Shipwreck Island. Not eager to be yet another crewmate, Jack Teague insisted on one day becoming a captain of his own vessel. After serving as a cabin boy, he would find himself the captain of the Barnacle, a small fishing boat that had been left abandoned at Salty Cove on the island of Tortuga.
After a bout of adventures around the Gulf of Mexico, the Grand Barnacle would be destroyed in a confrontation with the English Royal Navy by cannonfire intended for Edward Teague’s ship, the Misty Lady.
After many more adventures, Jack would later find himself as a crewmember of the Wicked Wench, under the captaincy of Captain Morgan (not to be confused with the buccaneer and later governor of Port Royal of the same name), when they would be confronted by Capitan Armando Salazar around 1711. Salazar had been in command of the Spanish galleon, Silent Mary, and had been putting effort into the extermination of pirates in the West Indies out of vengeance for his father and grandfather who had perished at the hands of pirates. The battle would take place near the Devil’s Triangle west of the Windard Isles in the Lesser Antilles, and would see the Silent Mary destroyed as she ran aground a collection of rocks shortly after entering the triangle while in pursuit of the Wicked Wench - a result of actions spurred on by Jack ��the Sparrow.” For a while, Jack found himself elected captain of the vessel, as their captain had perished in the confrontation.
Some time later, Jack no longer found himself aboard the Wicked Wench, as he had been press-ganged into service aboard a French brigantine named La Vipere, captained by Christophe-Julien de Rapier. Not long after, he had been left at sea in a longboat with fellow crewmate Robert Greene. Upon reaching dry land again, the duo began working for the East India Trade Company for five years, and Jack served as first mate aboard the brig Fair Wind. In 1716, after taking control of the Fair Wind, defending her from pirates, Jack Sparrow was offered captaincy of the merchant vessel Wicked Wench (which had apparently fallen into EITC hands by this point) by an impressed Lord Cutler Beckett, who was a director of the company regarding West Africa.
After a number of voyages on behalf of the East India Trading Company, Jack had been ordered to deliver a cargo of enslaved Africans to New Avalon in the Bahamas. Jack however despised the idea of humans being deemed as cargo and instead freed them, stealing Beckett’s ship. Shortly afterwards, a number of vessels were dispatched to capture the pirate Jack Sparrow, and before long he found himself imprisoned.
Months later, Jack would be brought to the coast of West Africa and be branded upon his arm with a “P” labeling him forever as a pirate. Just off the shore, he was made to watch as the Wicked Wench was torched. Breaking free from his captors, he swam for the ship but found himself trapped within her cabins as she sank beneath the waves.
Jack Sparrow found himself somewhere between life and death, on the path to Davy Jone’s Locker or the Land of the Dead. There, a deal was struck with Davy Jones that if Jones would raise his ship, after thirteen years he would forfeit his captaincy and serve onboard Jones’ ship, the Flying Dutchman. The blackened, charred ship would rise above the waves once more and be renamed the Black Pearl.
Two years later, in 1718, Jack would have Hector Barbossa aboard the Black Pearl, naming him first mate in a voyage to search for Aztec gold that had been stashed by Cortes. Prior to its discovery, the crew mutinied, an act which Barbossa spurred into being. Jack was marooned on a desert island, and Barbossa claimed captaincy of the Black Pearl.
Jack Sparrow would escape his solitude on the desert isle, and sail the seas having many more adventures over the next 11 years, until Jones would later reappear to him in 1729.
