Pirates Versus Privates: Difference between revisions

''[[Pirates Versus Privates]]'' is an [[Alternate Universe]] Disney [[Fanfic]] that's got a heap of something for everyone. Minnie Mouse is a Private for the NAVY (Nautical Air Victorian Youth), an all-female military that primarily hunts down pirates. She winds up catching the eye of pirate Mickey Mouse, and though she vows to arrest him, a love develops between them. A million other plot lines run through this, including a mysterious notebook, kidnappings, engagements, greedy kings and bloody revenge.

 

It's completed at thirty-four chapters. It can be found on [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7102106/1/Pirates_Versus_Privates Fanfiction.net] and [http://hypermegatailsfan.deviantart.com/gallery/31579605 DeviantArt.]

 

 

* [[Aborted Declaration of Love]]: Horace, thinking that Clarabelle was going to marry Edward, was just about to confess his feelings for her when she told him who Edward was really marrying. They never discuss this again. {{spoiler|Horace confesses his feelings for real when he thinks he's about to die, except he winds up living.}}

* [[Abuse Is Okay When It Is Female On Male]]: Minnie has slapped Mickey, kicked him in the face, and tried to hit him outside of battle situations. To be fair, he usually deserves it. Ortensia has also been violent to Oswald.

* [[Alternate History]]: In a Q&A session, the author said that George Washington, after having won the war, became America’s first king instead of setting up a democracy.

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: Mickey towards Ortensia. It’s why he’s been oblivious to her advances, in that he can only see her as a sister and not a ‘woman’.

* [[Badass Boast]]: Given that Darkwing Duck is in this story, it’s inevitable. And come chapter 33, he finally delivers.

* [[Bonus Material]]: The author occasionally writes Storybits which are spur of the moment stories. Some of them have been side stories and others are previews for future scenes. The side-stories are typically not considered canon, such as Mickey and Minnie meeting vampires and Minnie having a dream that their roles were reversed.

* [[But for Me It Was Tuesday]]: Oswald assumed Mickey had been specifically targeting him during past robberies. To Mickey it was all routine work and he had no clue he’d been robbing the same guy repeatedly.

* [[Frying Pan of Doom]]: Used in a fanart comic, with Minnie against Mickey.

* [[Funetik Aksent]] : Along with the pirate talk, the author has tried to implement the dialects certain characters had in the old comics, such as Mickey, Goofy, Horace, and Donna.

* [[Gosh Dang It to Heck]]: Though violence and perversion are abound, the author has been very reluctant to make Disney characters swear.

* [[Hartman Hips]]: Minnie’s hips have gotten unwanted attention a few times. The author herself has stated Mickey has a thing for ‘dem hips’.

* [[MacGuffin]]: The notebook that Mickey was hired to but failed to steal.

* [[Mad Scientist]]: The Fearsome Four are this. {{spoiler|They're reduced to three when Magica kills Bushroot.}}

* [[Male Gaze]]: Made evident when Minnie tries to reason with her four suitors in the jungle. Mickey’s the only one who actually looks at her face during that scene.

* [[Moment Killer]]: Minnie becomes one between a sweet moment with Millie and Goofy. Daisy has also interrupted Mickey and Minnie on purpose, as has Ortensia.

* [[Only Sane Man]]: The role keeps shifting because it turns out each character is nutty in their own way. The closest would probably be Donald Duck, a disturbing factor in of itself.

* [[Original Character]]: Millicent Manchester, a poodle that serves as Goofy's love interest. She was created by the author's friend and is typically seen in the author's other works to fill the same role. Captain Devil Eyes, Princess Edna, and Mickey's mother are all also original characters, along with Liliac the Bat, though she is an OC of a friend of the author.

* [[Parental Issues]]: Oswald wants to be acknowledged by his father who praises his brothers and ignores his efforts, Amelia {{spoiler|has to try and keep her father's secret shame still a secret, and there are hints of physical abuse in Clarabelle's past.}}

* [[Power Crystal]]: There are hints of this in the mysterious notebook the pirates were supposed to steal. {{spoiler|It's the sphere on top of Magica's staff.}}

* [[Reason You Suck Speech]]: Minnie tries to give this to her four suitors in order to make them behave. It doesn’t last too long, but it did seem to have an effect on Mickey.

** BONK!

* [[Sacred First Kiss]]: Mickey takes Minnie’s, and her friends try to convince her that it doesn’t count. Then Mickey winds up kissing her again and again…

* [[Servile Snarker]]: Ducksworth and Nathanial.

* [[Sex Equals Love]]: Mickey is under this impression, which is why he’s so physically forward with Minnie. He’s quite stumped as to why it’s not working. {{spoiler|Since his mother was a prostitute, she could be why he thinks this way.}}

* [[Ship Tease]]: Scrooge and Magica. Do they have feelings for each other, or have they been a couple in the past? {{spoiler|It turned out that she was one of many flings Scrooge had.}}

* [[Shirtless Scene]]: Mickey’s sort-of bath scene during his stay on the Hawkins.

* [[Show Some Leg]]: In a Storybit (preview), Minnie reluctantly does this to trick Mickey and lock him up. Boy does she pay for it. This scene has also been cancelled, but can still be read.= in the author's gallery.

** There's also a reference to a certain Spartan meme in Chapter 26. You know how the line goes.

* [[Son of a Whore]]: {{spoiler|Mickey}}.

* [[Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace]]: Millie hopes for this and Goofy tries to do this during Millie's wedding to Edward, but it turns out Goofy arrived before she even finished walking down the aisle.

* [[Sure Why Not]]: How the title of the story came to be. When it was in its draft stage, a friend of the author would draw fanart of it and refer it by this title. When the actual story-writing process started, the author decided that title was as good as any.

* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: Millie resorts to this anytime love is brought up. It’s why she’s such a bad liar.

* [[Tempting Fate]]: Often used. One such example is Daisy seeing Mickey and Minnie being friendly, and she thinks it can’t get any worse. Then the two touch and get quite flustered about it.

* Tsundere: Mickey and Minnie’s initial form of the relationship. Now it’s just on Minnie’s end. Can also be said for Clarabelle towards Horace.

* [[The Unfavorite]]: Oswald in his family.

* [[Ungrateful Bastard]]: Oswald toward his NAVY bodyguards.

* [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]: Heaps of it for any couple that’s ‘not’ a couple.

* [[Unwanted Harem]]: At one point, Minnie has four suitors after her – Mickey, Mortimer, Pete, and Oswald.

* [[Versus Title]]

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Barnaby outright loses it when {{spoiler|Goofy won't hand over the System Sword.}} It gets so bad he winds up screaming about other past crimes he's done. {{spoiler|Magica absolutely loses her mind in the climax as Minnie refuses to die.}}

* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Clarabelle and Daisy. They do really care about each other, but they’re also always the first to argue at any given notice.

* [[We Used to Be Friends]]: Goofy, Millie, Pete, Peg, Horace and Clarabelle all used to be childhood friends. Now they’re either pirates or fight pirates, which means half of the group is fighting the other half.

* [[When She Smiles]]: Seeing an honest smile from Minnie is one of the biggest things that helps Mickey fall in love with her.

* [[Would Hit a Girl]]: There’s really no choice, since the girls will hit first.

* [[Written Sound Effect]]: Usually used to interrupt a big moment and have a laugh. {{spoiler|The one time it's not for a laugh, someone dies.}}
