Connection

Explaining the story of Redhanded Jill/Elizabeth and how it connects to the story of Peter Pan in my story "As red as blood bleeds." (SPOILERS and you may be a bit confused if you have yet to read the story.) This is basically too long to make into an AN so i made it a completely different document.

We all know that scene, where Hook and Pan are fighting in the air. I took that scene and made it into an elaborate back story combining aspects from Sting's song Pirate's bride, Pirates of the Caribbean, and an old story I read called The Crying Willow. The basis is taking the assumption that Wendy is the author of Neverland and the stories she tells that are originally her's effect Neverland;

"And what's this I see, there's another in your place. He calls himself husband."

And what's this the spirit of Elizabeth's pirate sees, there's another in his place. The man who strung the pirate up, sighed his signature to the pirate's charges. He calls himself Elizabeth's husband, She has moved on from him within days time, he is unloved by her. Hook is taking his own story and fitting Pan to it. That's why he despises Wendy and Peter's relationship so much, because he lost his Elizabeth first to death and then he believes to another man, Hook's murder none the less. It's also sort of a paradox that says that Neverland isn't connected to time. Wendy tells the story to Jillian in what is the future compared to when she was in Neverland, but this story effects Neverland and Captain Hook before Wendy ever even told it. I've been told by some of my friends that the story of Redhanded Jill, which gives Jillian a role so to speak in Neverland, reads like an apology from Wendy to Hook because Wendy "sacrifices" Jillian by making her Hook's bride after her, her brothers, peter, and the lost boys feed Hook to the crocodile. I don't see it that way. I really don't even see Jillian as Redhanded Jill. Perhaps Elizabeth is the personified form of Jillian's childhood and Redhanded Jill the personified form of Jillian's adulthood, but Jillian is not Elizabeth or Jill. Hook sees Elizabeth in Jillian and Jillian may even become almost Elizabeth/Jill but she was never meant to be THE Elizabeth/Jill. Keep in mind that Hook is from the "real" world not Neverland. He was sent to Neverland with his death. His crew are men who are lost at sea. So why doesn't Hook react when Wendy calls herself Redhanded Jill when she's in Neverland? He doesn't know what Elizabeth became after his death and her marriage to the Commander. He doesn't know that Redhanded Jill is his Elizabeth. Seriously, re watch from the part where Hook begins to fly until the kiss, think about the brutal way he's talking, is all that hate streamed just at a little boy who cut off his hand or is there something deeper there. If you examine the movie closer it also seems that Hook has even more hatred to Pan after he realizes Wendy loves Pan and vise versa.
