Third thought on my second viewing of Pirates

It's taken me this long, but on watching this film again, I finally realized who Jack's clandestine, surreptitious, and opportunistic way of thinking reminded me of:

Methos.

Yep. In fact, exactly so. Jack is like a 16th-century!Methos, only slightly more fun to be around and a great deal less in control. But the rest-- exactly so. If they ever met (entirely possible within canon given age, so please please [livejournal.com profile] shrift or anyone write me a crossover), then it would be a meeting of like minds and souls.
