New reader? Start here. Back to Part 053 Notes I think the biggest I should tackle right away is my clumsy handling of Cait and Manni, and what Manni’s intentions really were. Though I’ve stated a while ago that Xiphos, Crash, and Fink all had/have crushes on Manni, I did not state whether she reciprocated [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 052 Notes – Forward to Part 054 Notes Frankie! She’s been pretty quiet so far, but we’re going to learn more about her. I like her a lot and I can’t wait to show her off. I hate to say it, though, as much as I like Frankie, [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 051 Notes – Forward to Part 053 Notes I like to think that Xiphos drops vague, unclear, potentially important news on Toby and then leaves a lot, such as the “let’s go live on the Prime Meridian” conversation they had. I think she does it on purpose, that [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 050 Notes – Forward to Part 052 Notes I guess off the bat I should talk about why there’s only a mention of Penny Dreadful, and no actual pirate. A lot of it has to do with me having a very weird week. The rest stems from that. [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 049 Notes – Forward to Part 051 Notes This section marks the one year anniversary of Boat Story. It should be fifty two sections by this point, but you know, things happened. Anyways, this is important for a couple of reasons. The first is that this is the [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 048 Notes – Forward to Part 050 Notes There’s a lot going on here. Cait has to officiate a spat between Xiphos and Auburn, make sure her brother isn’t about to do something stupid, and, of course, see that her guests are taken care of, even if they’re [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 045 Notes – Forward to Part 047 Notes Welcome aboard La Ambicio, the home of what used to be the crew of the Rose, and then some. What Bertrand is starting to slowly realize is becoming a theme in this story (like I planned it or something): he [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 044 Notes – Forward to Part 046 Hey! It’s that guy! I’ve been giddy about posting this section for a while now. It’s a big reveal, and this is more or less the way I wanted it to happen. I know some of you had your suspicions, and [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 043 Notes – Forward to Part 045 Notes So, despite technical difficulties, I managed to get this section out on time. Not bad, considering I got my computer back three hours before deadline. Also, that’s why there’s any spelling errors or typos. *ahem* I’m about 90% happy with [...]

New reader? Start here. Back to Part 041 Notes – Forward to Part 043 Notes Hey, check it out, it’s Cait’s mentor, Captain Alistair Mossflower. Although I’m sure he wasn’t a captain when he was training her twenty years ago. They’ve gotten close through the years, Alistair and his wife Helen even going so far [...]
