TRAVISTY by: Mark Arbour Chapter 40: Dexies April 24, 2006 Bright Star Studios Manhattan Beach, CA Travis I pushed open the door to my trailer and stepped inside. The first thing I did was look in the mirror, and the image that stared back at me was horrifying. My hair was a mess, my eyes were glassy, and my entire body looked exhausted,

I'm not sure. This family has a bit of misogyny in its ecosystem. We see that in how they are more protective/upset about their daughters having sex, and how they generally put them on a pedestal. I think that Claire may be capable, but she would never have to. Brad or JP would handle it for her.

This is true. Travis is focused on solving his current problem and nothing else

Don’t forget the poll.

April 21, 2006 MAC, Harvard University Cambridge, MA Will “Alright, this is the semifinals, so this is a big deal,” Niko said as we huddled around our bench. “This is one of two teams we lost to.” I grimaced a bit when he said that, because Kirkland had beat us fair and square, but that had been when Austin and I were having issues, and that had thrown our chemistry off. I glanced at him and saw he was thinking the same thing I was, remembering that shitty time, then h

As most of you have guessed, Travisty is building up to a big explosion. Guess which chapter that happens in.

April 13, 2006 Bright Star Studios Manhattan Beach, CA Travis I sat in the makeup chair, staring back at myself, knowing that while I looked totally normal on the outside, on the inside I was a mess. I’d taken Xanax two hours ago and it hadn’t landed the way it normally did. The pressure in my chest hadn’t dropped or flattened, the anxiety was still there, and I had to hold my hands together to keep them from shaking. On top of that, I had a major confrontation scene w

The first song was a bit too weird for me, but I loved the Pink video!

That's Will's preferred solution too, but it doesn't seem to resonate with Travis.

April 4, 2006 Bright Star Studios Manhattan Beach, CA Travis I gritted my teeth in anger, annoyed that I’d only been back for two days and already the calmness I’d mastered over spring break was gone. We’d had an amazing time, mostly surfing and snorkeling, although the nighttime swims were also way cool. I’d been absolutely sure that I’d lose my mind without having access to my phone, and I was right for the first day and a half. I’d catch myself constantly patting at t

No offense taken, and in fact a true compliment. I was 12 when I started reading Hornblower.

May 5, 1802 Mediterranean Sea, near Roses, Spain “Run in the guns!” Valera ordered, and the tired crews pulled the 12-pounders back into Proserpina, swabbed them out, and stood waiting for the next order. “I think we are much improved,” Granger noted to Mendoza. “Have the gunner bring up the extra powder I purchased and we will try a live fire exercise.” “Aye aye, sir,” Mendoza said. The Spanish navy was no less frugal than the Royal Navy, and they were unwil
