Enric Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 ch1: nice oh, Caroline, the minx my prediction: she just got pregnant, again... in nine months..... but, Georgie will be on the other side of the world at that time. probably. 1 Link to comment
nevius Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Thanks, I can't wait to see what Granger gets up to...or in to! Link to comment
Tiger Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I just read the first chapter. It's shaping up to be a good one indeed. However, I'm already left wanting more as the identity of this midshipmen is unknown. I happen to think it must be someone who's f**ked Granger in the past (in a good way). Link to comment
Enric Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 .... the identity of this midshipmen is unknown. I happen to think it must be someone who's f**ked Granger in the past (in a good way). hmmm. the young Wilcox ? perhaps Pete (who actually is Georgie's age, more or less) has realized that he wants georgie to rove in his arse....

Tiger Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 hmmm. the young Wilcox ? perhaps Pete (who actually is Georgie's age, more or less) has realized that he wants georgie to rove in his arse.... It's unlikely that Wilcox would still be a midshipman, isn't it? And why would he request to be under Granger? If he got on Granger's bad side, it would mean certain death. I doubt he'd risk it.

centexhairysub Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Great first chapter and start to what I hope is a superb third book in the series. Wonder who George will have first, the mystery midshipman or the first lt. Have really enjoyed all of the Bridgemont series and hope it continues to develop and grow as it has. Link to comment
dachcr Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 What a great new start! All the right ingredience for an interesting voyage... and sounds like they will pass my city, Cape Town. Hope they will see some of the beauty of this place - Thanks, Mark, for this great ball buster of a story. Link to comment
Conner Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 A great opening chapter! I hope Poulin and his privateers are successful. Sounds like Granger needs his purse replenished. I'm hoping Ranger isn't the type to bring his "catch" back to his master for praise. I'm thinking Winkler and Ranger may provide some comic relief on this long voyage. Speaking of long voyages, there's no way Granger will survive that long trip without some man-love. The menu seems to be shaping up nicely. So who is this senior midshipman? I trust Granger will express his expectations very clearly before allowing the young lad to join his ship. Link to comment

If he got on Granger's bad side, it would mean certain death. I doubt he'd risk it. I was not wanting it to be Wilcox. I answered to the call 'unexpected'.... that said, wouldn't an experienced slut be better for Georgie than someone for whom he actually may develop feelings during the year-long travel there are few slut guys in the story - I think this forum might have a bigger number of such available.

Dave53cama Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 The cure for BWS has arrived! Finally, It was a long wait for Chapter one. I can't wait for Ch two. And also the next fourteen hundred chapters. You can really tell I didn't like it, can't you. Link to comment
Mark Arbour Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 Thanks for the great feedback everyone! Chapter 2 will be along shortly. Link to comment
Tiger Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Thanks for the great feedback everyone! Chapter 2 will be along shortly. That's awesome! I probably won't get to read it until tomorrow night though... damn 12-hour shifts. Link to comment
Enric Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) That's awesome! I probably won't get to read it until tomorrow night though... damn 12-hour shifts. internet connections in texas cut each twelve hours ? whut? is this again some republican, conservative, fascist censure of things ? thought it was enough (and too much) when they tightened the controls back in autumn 2001, after 2002 I haven't visited USA at all - mostly because already airports started to be such a disgusting experience....

I think it has to do with him working for 12 hours straight, not censorship. But then again, he does live in Texas. And yes, US airports suck. Link to comment
Enric Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) ch2: oh hoh. Carmody would be a sadomasochist... hopefully the voluntarily buggering-prone boys get to have their enthusiasm fulfilled. The not-yet-mature George Lennox is an invented character, I gather. But his age (b about 1780) is somewhat implausible, seeing his mother's career in childbirthing. Edited August 9, 2009 by Enric Link to comment
Ivy Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Ahhh Mark, thank you for returning to your sailors!! Love a man in uniform (and out of one)! Ch 1 great setting of the stage, and ch 2, well, methinks Mr. Carmody might be done for.... Can't wait for the next chapter, although with the speed you write, it shouldn't be long. Great start, looking forward to many, many more chapters. Link to comment
Conner Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 It was easy to sense Granger's pride as he led his ship from the harbour onto the open seas. Really a fascinating chapter! So it was Humphreys seeking an appointment with Granger. Another victim of navel politics, or more accurately in this case, a vindictive captain. Well, he's going to remain a midshipman for at least another year it would seem. I'm wondering if Humphreys took Fitzwilliam aside after his poor behaviour upon first meeting his captain. Might have nipped Fitzwilliam in the bud and saved him an ass whipping. Given the chapter ending, it would appear that Fitzwilliam's bud might be getting well nipped as it is. < Did you ever hear of the two English gays? Gerald Fitzwilliam and William Fitzgerald. > I'm sorry. The devil made me say that. Granger was quite inconsolable after reading Travers' letter. That was sad. I had forgotten about Jeffers - was his assistance a variation on a "stiff upper lip"? Ok, stop teasing us, Mark. Bring on Granger and Calvert!!! Link to comment

Tiger Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I was kind of surprised about the whipping. It does make me wonder. Is Granger going to be more of a strict disciplinarian than he wants his officers to believe? Then again, Fitzwilliam seems to want free reign, something he shall not have. Granger is surely going to try to get his hands on the doctor too. Hmmmm... it might mean they'll actually play doctor together. That could be nice and kinky. Link to comment

Granger is surely going to try to get his hands on the doctor too. Hmmmm... it might mean they'll actually play doctor together. That could be nice and kinky. Whipping was a common punishment for boys on ships of that era. It was usually done with a rope (like Fitzwilliam) or a cane, but could also be done with a cat-of-nine-tails. It was considered that whipping was good for boys back in those days. Someone like Fitzwilliam, who is spoiled rotten and is used to having everything his way, needs a strong reminder that he's in a different world. Granger is remarkably practical in his views on punishment, and this would seem to follow in that pattern. Link to comment
Enric Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 ch3: uh. problems.... they probably won't know ever, or at least for a year, what happens to the prize...... But, my speculation is pessimistic: something goes awry with Carmody's return. Link to comment
Conner Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Yes, nothing like a battle to clear the mind! I wish Granger had said something like, "I love the smell of gunpowder in the morning"! Coitus interruptus is worse than a cliffhanger! That was just plain nasty. Excellent chapter, Mark! Link to comment
