About Jones' Heart. - Tumblr Posts
🪐 —open prompt sent by @starfrckled ( edward teach ) ❛ i just want myself back . ❜

A SOUL IN TURMOIL bringing themselves to tia dalma’s door searching for help or healing was no rare sight. the humans never changed; always distraught over some slight, always concerned only with easing their own pain. self-centered to a fault. but then, she could understand the need to do seek any means necessary to ease ache of a broken heart. & no matter how he tried to hide his wound, the truth was obvious to one familiar with the signs. especially when he asked her of davy jones, & the part of the legend where he had plunged a knife into his own chest to stop the pain. ❝ well then, you will have to know who it is that you are. ❞ her eyes catch him in their gaze & holds him there. & the goddess leans forward in her seat, elbows on the table & hands clasped together tightly. the candles around her hut all flicker at once, sending shadows dancing ominously across her face. there is no trace of a warmth or humor in her tone when she speaks. ❝ so, are you the kind of man who would rather be without a heart at all, edward teach ? ❞ the syllables of his name are drawn out, exaggerated, ending in a flash of dirty teeth that is closer to bared fangs than anything resembling a smile.
