This is quite the complication, and I am all in favor!

This is a very touching story. Great start, and I look forward to future chapters.

I like the sound of this.... "I knew quite clearly that if necessary, Luther was indeed capable of being very rough." Can't wait!
-
Thank you. Next chapter!
-
A very intriguing hypothesis.

I kept seeing JJ stalked through the library by Velociraptors. Scary stuff.

This is all familiar territory to me even though this is a non-US setting. Been there, done that, got the emotional scars as a souvenir. Very well presented, and I look forward to future installments. Can't wait to uncover the backstory with Dallas!

The After Below Deck — An Hour Before Departure The candlelight flickered against the varnished bulkhead of the midshipmen's berth, casting long shadows. Blake packed his things into the chest with too much care to be casual. A quiet knock sounded. “Enter,” he said, expecting the purser. Instead, Lieutenant Adams stepped inside, ducking slightly beneath the low beam. His presence filled the cramped space, calm and collected as always. “I heard you're bound for the Abso

This is wonderful. I have spent so many evenings drinking "something that tasted like liquid confidence mixed with dissolved regret"!

That is a great character. I look forward to more of his snark.

The Pledge & The Vice
andy cannon commented on Littlelovestories's story chapter in The Pledge & The Vice
"Did I make that face out loud?" is a great line ! Chef's kiss. -
I am enjoying this story. When you mention "...and some by a 20th century Czech composer called Martinu whose music was new to him," I wondered if you are thinking here of the Three Madrigals.? A nice shoutout to an neglected master!

Thank you! I was thinking that a sailor caught by a Royal Navy press gang would be a great story, and then I remembered that scoundrel, Melville, already stole that for Billy Budd.

*Hampshire, 1823* As he did every morning at precisely nine o’clock, William Pitt left the cottage he leased in a seaside village not far from Portsmouth to walk with his dog, Apollo, down the high street to the strand.

Two years into retirement, Pitt still walked like a man used to the quarterdeck’s pitch and roll. He was a

Red sky at morning ## A Shot Across the Bow ## In the year of our Lord 1808, Midshipman Blake came aboard His Majesty’s sloop Vigilant like a shot across the bow, young, bright, and eager to be taken seriously. He was eighteen, lean but broad-shouldered, with sun-shot curls and eyes the colour of storm-lit sea. His uniform, freshly tailored, fit his frame with a natural elegance that made seasoned officers glance twice and junior midshipmen look away too quickly. He moved with qu

A historical Age of Sail story about what it means to try to define yourself as a man on your own terms in a repressive closed world that denies you that self-determination.
-
A fun story! And what great inspiration art.
-
I agree that the convo with Ezra will be a doozy.
-
What a powerful ending to that chapter!
-
Wonderful world building, A sterling achievement.

The Beach Episode (Because Apparently That’s Required)
andy cannon commented on Jeff Burton's story chapter in The Beach Episode (Because Apparently That’s Required)
I am a couple of generations past being 16, but you are nailing that angsty vibe to perfection, to the point that I am experiencing flashbacks and PTSD.- 48 comments

Well! Graeme Veilwyn is certainly providing some shadow in this chapter. Can the consequences be far behind?

That story is both heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time!
