Summary
‘James Norrington, do you fear death?’ came the dreaded question, but as James raised his head to look Jones in the eye, he realised he felt no fear, only defiance.
No, James Norrington did not fear death – never had, if he was being honest, at least not since Elizabeth had ripped out his heart and he had sailed hundreds of men to their untimely deaths in that godforsaken hurricane. Perhaps he had even hoped for it, then – longed for it, death being the merciful bliss, the freedom that had never been bestowed upon him in life.
But he hadn’t died then. And he felt like he couldn’t die now, either. Not out of fear, but as one last act of defiance towards Jones, Beckett, and all the people that had tried to control him in his life. And suddenly, faced with the two radical options Jones had given him, he realised that there was a third one, and he chose to act upon it.

Summary
A camera obscura is a dark room in which a small hole, later called a lens, is made in one of the walls. The light entering through this casts an image of the outside world onto the opposite wall. As is the case with an image through a lens, the outside world is depicted upside down.
Snippets from Tom and Peter’s time together before everything went to shit - where Tom is the darkroom, and Peter his light, showing him what life could be like - though it never fits Tom quite right.

Summary
‘I hadn’t really expected it to go like this,’ he admitted, craning his head so he could look at Tom. Tom was already looking up at him, one of his eyes slightly closed from the way his cheek rested on Peter’s shoulder.
‘Like what?’ he asked, and Peter smiled.
‘You know. First we argue about Meredith, then you break my heart with the way you talk about yourself. Then you end up crying. And next thing you know, we’re suddenly having sex. You have to admit that’s a rather unusual way for a conversation to end.’
Tom was quiet for a second. Then he muttered almost inaudibly: ‘I can think of some more unusual ways for a conversation to end.’ Peter didn’t ask what he meant.
***
In which Peter and Tom's conversation at the end of the movie ends a little differently, and Tom in turn lists off everything good about Peter Smith-Kingsley - only to then have it end in roughly the same way. Sorry, guys. No happy endings here.
