Title: Where There's a Whale There's a Way: or, How to Kiss a Harpooneer in Ten Leagues

Author: Icarus_Isambard

Canon: Moby Dick

Pairing: Queequeg/Ishmael

Rating: Teen [PG]

Word Count: 5,751

Summary: When Ishmael angsts over never having kissed his bosom friend Queequeg, the crew of the Pequod rally around his increasingly desperate efforts, serving up a cavalcade of romcom clichés in their misguided attempts to find Ishmael his happily ever after. They’re serious about putting romcom back into Romanticism—and if there ain’t no extravagant musical number sung in the shadow of a breaching whale, then by Neptune it ain’t love.

Recommendation: This is so funny. The crew of the Pequod totally ships it, and they just want to help. A little too much, but anyway.
