Chapter Twenty-Four: The Grady Declaration Protocol The silence in the grand ballroom was a vacuum created by Tarquin Merrick’s ego. To Orel Grady, standing at the back of the room with his husband’s hand in his, it was a high-pressure zone, dense with the cloying, almost physical scent of forced lilies and the low-frequency drone of four hundred people holding their collective breath. It was the silence before a seismic event, the air ionized by the coming strike. Orel conducted a f

Aye, Will had no ships to send et al. Thanks.

you are right, an oversight on my part, it's been since Dec. 2019.

Tomorrow: The Quiet Room Ned and Peter: Survivors healing Yani and Tommy: Our Geek squad take on the Conspiracy for War.

That wasn't a message to Will, that was a message to his team/the Premier, should have made that clear, my mistake

Guess it's down to Yani to stop Miller's plans.

Good morning, hope you are all dry and warm

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN: THE ASSET Location: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Georgia. Time: July 30, 2024. 14:00 EDT. Status: Surveillance State High Alert. Yani Levchenko hated airports. They were, in his professional opinion, architectural manifestations of human anxiety. They were hives of bad data, inefficient queuing algorithms, and biological contaminants. He stood in the Customs line, clutching a British diplomatic passport that felt less like a shield and

The Butterflies are a metaphor for Orel and Finn, they are the only ones that winter as adults, they emerge tattered, but still strong.

Three things you can rely on: the professionalism of the US Navy in a crisis, the timely arrival of the US Army when someone is in trouble, and a boot up the ass of the badguys from the US Marines. I have a tremendous respect for the US armed forces, so I want it clear that what I write for a story is in no way a reflection on the services.

Will and Tommy will have that talk, I mean it's mere formality at this point, but we all know Will's Tommy's Dad and always has been, he's just waiting for permission. Hell Will was Tommy's dad even before that chat with Bob at the arena. It's not stated clearly, beyond his mom's troubles... but Tommy has never known his real dad. The only one he's ever known is Will. (We also know that Uncle Peter is proudly Mom but no one dares call him that)

It's Orel calling Will: Mister Carter isn't it? :: checks again ::

Usuaully it is Uncle Will, but there is a later beat in Campaign where this is addressed... and Will asks Tommy what he wants. I just had to here, in this one... keep it vague as to not spoil things. I mean he is Called Tommy Carter in this one, so you know.

Tommy to the rescue, I like Tom-boy he's a good egg, and quick on the up tick, helping Orel back from the edge of a meltdown that would have undermined everything. Tarquin is a cruel machine, setting Orel up for a public meltdown infront of the guests would have given him everything he needed for his conservatorship argument. Tommy stepping up, and protecting his friend by calling the one person he knows can handle it, says a lot of our Olympic champion in training. Besides he gets to tease his cousin :

Tarquin of Rome is about to find the gates of his city are closed to him, and the population in revolt. The man he thought simple and incapacitated has organized a revolution against his corrupt rule. Lucretia has said her truth, and it was heard.

Chapter Twenty-Three: The False Spring The Founder’s Day Gala was not a party; it was a siege of aesthetics. Merrick Manor had been transformed into a gilded cage of sensory aggression. Tarquin Merrick had opted for the “Vernal Awakening” theme, a choice that was as calculated as it was cruel. The grand ballroom was choked with thousands of forced-bloom lilies, their white trumpets screaming with a fragrance so potent it felt physical. To Orel, the scent was a cloying, floral weight t
