And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster

An Ode to Beckara
by PD
And so our story does start
We open onto the very first part
Long, long ago, on a warm, cloudy day
Miles and miles away
A vessel set sail, Endeavour she was called
Bound for the Caribbean for the first time
To punish those who led lives of crime
Under Lord Beckett’s firm, sovereign hand
To test him only one, a woman no less, planned
And so their relationship did start
Quite mysterious in part
They discussed and conspired
Each reveling in their witty struggles
Balancing their acts like a man who juggles
Keyara Pierce she was called
And together they were enthralled
Each one attempting to make the other break
As they both had so much at stake
Revolving around this Dead Man’s Chest
And so their love did start
Although they were guarded in the heart
Much of the night was spent in pain
Wondering the whole time
How they could commit such a crime
Against their stubborn, loveless hearts
They dared not sacrifice their pride
No, instead they lived within a lie
Making deals, talking sly
And so, eventually, the end did start
The Key was gotten and so the Heart,
With the conclusion nigh, he must find a good alibi
Confused and alarmed of the feelings in his heart
He determined to tuck Keyara away
And so he committed the ultimate crime
Forsaking the love they had fostered all this time
He saw fit to be ride of her forever
Changing their love from someday to never
And so the tears and regret then did start
Leaving them both with a hole in their heart
And little by little, etching them away
Until no more could they be mended by time
Surely, this was infact the ultimate crime
Mistakes and distress and wounded pride
Are all that is left to be drowned by the tide
Times past and times done, never did he
Take up her hand in love that wasn’t to be.
Summary in brief:
Cutler Beckett and Keyara Pierce met shortly before the Endeavour left England for the Caribbean. She joined the crew and immediately offered her services to Lord Beckett who, always needing another person to use, accepted. Quite soon, they realized that the other was unlike any person they had ever met, clever, sly, and ambitious. They were similar in so many ways but also stubborn in so many ways, never actually wanting to show their affection for one another.
After going through many adventures (and misadventures) together they finally parted, mostly at Cutler's forcing, but regretted it ever since.
Dynamics:
Having never actually admitted to loving one another, Cutler and Keyara became a couple under cover. They didn’t show their relationship outright to the world - instead it was secreted.
Cutler and Keyara use each other’s positions and talents often to further themselves
Both are ambitious to end the world of piracy and that’s one of their main similar interests
They tend to bring out the worst in each other... but also the sweetness (if only for a moment).
