Several years ago I made a five episode slideshow with a bunch of text on it dedicated to a ship between Jack Frost and Elsa. I made it for my friend who was deep into it at the time and to this day I've never forgotten about it. So, I've decided to rewrite the story with a little bit more pizzazz, extra story, and extra twist and drama! The story will take a lot of elements from a lot of different places, and may take several unexpected turns sometimes, bare with me; this is based off of a slideshow I made when I was very younger, so attempting to add sense to some of the things I did is going to a little rough. But without further a do... I give to you... Jelsa! The Return! Thank you Allissa for inspiring me to do this. Love you sis, you mean the world to me.
