I do love Madame Wu. She dangles the prospect of Peter and West having a biological child under the guise of a lesson. Will Peter seize on it?
-
You can see the elements of a cross border conflict edging toward transcontinental consequences. Will precludes it all with a single phone call delivering a knock out strike. Samson brought the temple down on them with one mighty shove.

Elias got Rourke. Theo shot Cobb.

Anyone who has enjoyed the Western stories by @Headstall will also enjoy this one.

Jack is a Force of Nature.

There is an iconic photo of Eisenhower talking to members of the 82nd Airborne prior to D-Day. He had seen the casualty estimates that most of these mes wouldn't return. In fact 15 of the 16 battalion commanders were killed or wounded. It's hard to look men in the eye knowing you are sending them to almost certain death or ruin. It's this photo I had in mind when thinking of West giving Trembley his mission.

When I saw Rourke's gun had pearl grips, I remembered this quote from Patton. "They're ivory. Only a pimp from a cheap New Orleans whorehouse would carry a pearl-handled pistol." And who grabs the gun? Madame Lorelei.

An epic showdown with the true and desperate chaos of a real battle.

flavescent - Word of the Day - Wed Dec 17, 2025
drpaladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Flavescent hues to the eyes or skin are open signs of poor health. -
So much in this chapter. We got scary Will, wrecking West, and Enrico fetching Andrew. This isn't over yet and the emotional toll for our guys is already soul wrenching.
-
The little niggle here is why let Theo leave? He is part of the stakes. Rourke probably doesn't care. Maybe Cobb looks forward to a hunt.

Also The Quick and the Dead.

partisan - Word of the Day - Tue Dec 16, 2025
drpaladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Being called partisan is rarely a compliment. It is typically used to indicate unreasonable bias where total fairness is necessary. -
It's lovely to know they're getting a kick out of the show.
-
Enrico or Hannibal? Which would be worse? Choices, choices.

I just watched an episode of Bat Masterson and he was helping Pinkerton's. LOL

They are a fun read, so carry on.

It's the Dark Sovereign persona, the amoral side.

Nearly useless in town.

histrionic - Word of the Day - Mon Dec 15, 2025
drpaladin commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Actor Maurice Evans purposely used histrionics to play Maurice on Bewitched. -
Well, they are expected. It's another trap, and once again they march right in the front door. Brave, but foolieh.
-
Even after massive doses of mind shattering drugs, abuse, and Hale's relentless conditioning, Andrew's agile mind found a way to protect itself. Their precious leverage has escaped and now they should be very afraid.
-
And then has no time to meet. Will has completely shed his diplomatic politeness. It's great.
-
No more missions? That won't last.
