Disclaimer: I own nothing of Disney, Panzer, Verbinski's or Bruckheimer's. I do own my own insanity, last I checked. (Double-checks) Yep, made the last payment on my insanity last summer. Insanity is rather expensive on a state employee's pay, so please don't sue me! April, 2004.
Author's notes: On ErinRua's The Black Pearl Sails Fanfiction group on Yahoo, there are drabble challenges. This drabble is in response to the crossover drabble challenge. I did more than one drabble for the challenge, they will be uploaded as chapters. Btw, the typical drabble length of 100 words was tossed for this challenge, as was any requirement of logic. This first drabble is a crossover between POTC and Highlander (the TV series). Enjoy! :)
PEAS IN A POD

"So... You mean to tell me that you can't die, mate?"
"That is correct, Captain."
Jack regarded the man he'd pulled aboard the Black Pearl suspiciously, not quite sure whether he should believe him, or toss him overboard. "So, if I shoot you, ye won't mind?" he asked, pulling out his pistol and aiming for the stranger's heart.
"Oh, I'll mind, but I won't die – if you promise not to take my head. Do we have an accord?"
Jack nodded, and prepared to shoot the other man, but stopped when the other started taking off his shirt. "What in blazes are you doing?"
The dark-haired man sighed as he removed his shirt. "Do you have any idea how many shirts I've had ruined by people shooting me? I'd like to have something to wear that's not full of holes once this is all over, Captain."
"You've done this before?"
"Been shot and come back, yes. Stripped for a pirate, no."
Jack grinned and put his pistol away. "Welcome aboard the Black Pearl, Duncan MacLeod. By the way... you don't turn into a skeleton in the moonlight, do you?"
"What?"
"Just checking."
"You are a strange man, Captain Sparrow."
"Peas in a pod, MacLeod. Peas in a pod."
