Thundertober Day Seven: Alive

Please, please check the warnings for this one.

I've tried to cover enough to be on the safe side but it does delve into some darker thoughts, so please be mindful of that. I hadn't planned on this getting quite so... depressing. It was supposed to have an uplifting end. Fair warning: it doesn't.

AO3 here

Days: One ~ Two ~ Three ~ Four ~ Five ~ Six

Warnings for: Suicidal Thoughts; Depression; Major Character Injury. This is set post-Hydrofoil. Gordon is having to come to terms with the cost of surviving an accident that should have left him dead. Tagging: @thunder-tober @skymaiden32 @idontknowreallywhy (just going to put it out there that if you want to be tagged in any future Thundertober pieces, or future pieces in general, let me know and I'll tag you too!)

What was the point of being alive if it meant you could no longer live?

The mirror was his enemy. He refused to even take a glance because who exactly would be staring back at him? What had he become? Life or death and he had chosen to live because he was strong and his human survival instincts had kicked in, but what was the cost?

His legs were currently immobile, his arms cocooned in casts. Most of his body was either bandaged or strapped up in some way, metal rods and plating fixed inside him as though he were a bionic man. There was probably some sort of joke in there somewhere, but Gordon failed to see the funny side. He failed to make a joke about anything as of late, and for good reason.

He had survived, but now he was facing a life of… this. 

Apparently, there was still a chance he might have been able to return to his old life, but the odds were against him. According to some of the doctors, there was a slim possibility of Gordon being able to walk again. It was a tiny glimmer of hope, but he chose to not think of it. To think of it, to hope for it, only for it to likely be ripped away from him all over again? He’d rather remain solemn and bed-ridden without the dream, thanks.

Because that’s all it was now. 

A dream of a past life and a possible future that was no longer within his grasp.

Whenever his brothers came by to visit, usually once a day, they’d reassure him, or try to, but none of them had ever been good liars, at least not to Gordon’s face. He could tell instantly when Scott blinked excessively and barely offered him a simple glance in his direction; when Virgil took great interest in the way his booted feet twisted and moved across the shaggy carpeted rug beside his hospital bed; when John’s fingers would not stop fidgeting with the zipper on his hoodie and would give only an uncharacteristic shrug as an answer whenever Gordon asked him a question.

Late at night, when the wing had fallen asleep and the only sounds that filled the area was the soft humming of machines and the padded feet of nurses doing their routinely hourly checks, Gordon would allow his mind to wander away on whims and what-ifs. 

What if he’d never joined that stupid test programme?

What if he had instead followed his dreams?

What if he had never got in that damned accident and still had a body that worked?

Never again would he be able to join his family on their hikes through the canyons near home. Never again would he be able to swim laps through the foaming waves on the West Coast. He had once considered taking up surfing more seriously, to add to his list of water hobbies, but now Gordon knew he’d never have the chance.

Wrapped up in cotton strips and constantly having to warn airport security of the additions to his body… This wasn’t living. At times he even question whether striving had been worth it.

Gordon eventually found the strength to confide in Virgil those thoughts which constantly ate away at him. His empathetic nature made Gordon feel like he would be the only brother who could understand, and who wouldn’t bat away his concerns with a simple don’t even think like that, you’re going to be fine, even with the odds stacked against him.

“What will make the surviving worth it, then?” Virgil had asked him, cradling a plastic cup that had once held the contents of a coffee vending machine. He’d slowly sipped his way through the warm, comforting drink as Gordon had bared his soul.

To his credit, Gordon hadn’t allowed a single tear to stain his cheeks. In his eyes, that was a win. He managed to open up to his brother without breaking down. It wasn’t that he thought Virgil wouldn’t have been able to take Gordon’s meltdown. He just didn’t want his brother having to witness it.

“I don’t know.” He replied honestly after a moment of quick, silent reflection. “I don’t think anything will.”

He couldn’t look Virgil in the eyes because he knew how it sounded. As a family, they never gave up. After everything they’d been through, they always found a way to continue fighting through the dark until the light appeared at the end of the tunnel again, but this time, Gordon felt exhausted. To him, the tunnel had caved in and there was no escape from the endless gloom.

“Walking again.” Virgil answered for him. “That would make it worth it. Running again. Standing again. Swimming again.”

The word made Gordon tense. It also made him lock eyes with his brother. For the first time in that conversation, there was a glossy sheen to those orbs as tears threatened to fall regardless of what Gordon wanted. “Don’t.” He warned carefully. “Don’t use that as a—”

“Gordon, the chances aren’t zero.”

And there it was. So much for believing Virgil wouldn’t try and reassure him with those ridiculous odds again.

“They’re as good as, Virg!” Gordon hadn’t meant to raise his voice. He knew his brother was only trying to help in the best way he could, but the pain was still raw and Gordon didn’t want to think about possibilities. “Don’t give me hope only to take it away again.”

“I’m giving you facts.”

“The fact is,” Gordon shuffled himself a little higher in his bed, ignoring the protest from his lower spine, “that no-one knows what the fuck is going to happen because I shouldn’t even be here! I should have died in that wreck, but for some unknown, Godforsaken reason, I’m still here and I wish I wasn’t!”

Gordon had never once regretted speaking to any of his brothers. He’d never once regretted choosing to open up to them, least of all Virgil, but as he sat there, taking in his brother’s horrified expression at his claim, Gordon regretted ever opening his mouth at all.

He didn’t let up. He couldn’t. To apologise or to backtrack would only offer two choices: Virgil would either accept his outburst as a mistake and not take any action, or he wouldn’t buy the act and would begin to put an action plan in place to tackle Gordon’s supposed way of thinking. Gordon wasn’t sure which option was worse.

So he continued.

“If it was you, Virgil… if you suddenly lost the ability to use your hands, your fingers, and now your painting and your piano playing was just a distant memory of what you could once do, how the fuck would you feel?”

He wasn’t sure what Virgil was thinking as he just stared at his younger brother. He wasn’t sure if any answer was going to be given, let alone an honest one. All of those doubts dissipated when Virgil leant forward. His elbows rested on the sheets of the bed, his hands holding as best he could onto one of Gordon’s casts.

“I would fight because the alternative isn’t better than this. That is never better than having some sort of life, Gordon. Death is death, but life… No matter how bad it seems now, life has variables and possibilities, and you should never wish for anything else.”

Gordon didn’t bother trying to hold back the tears any longer. He knew Virgil was right, but accepting that meant accepting a whole lot more pain.

“I’m too tired, Virg.” He whispered, head hanging lowly in defeat and shame.

“Don’t say that. Don’t say that when you’ve still got fight left in you, Gordon. I know you have.” Virgil tilted Gordon’s chin upwards with two gentle fingers. “You’re a Tracy. We don’t give up. So long as you are alive, there is hope, whether you think it’s worth believing in or not. So long as you are alive, you can fight, even if you believe you’re too tired to keep going. So long as you are alive, I will help you as much as I can because you are my brother and I’d much rather have to wait on you hand and foot than attend another gravestone, okay?”

It wasn’t a question to ask whether Gordon understood.

It was a question to ask whether Gordon would accept that unspoken promise.

“We take each day as it comes, but we never give up. So long as you are alive, Gordon, promise me that you will never give up.”

“I’m not great at promises, Virg, but…”

He trailed off his sentence, hoping his brother understood that he would try. 

Trying was all he had left to give.

The Cross-Channel Transport Business and Eurotunnel (GET.SA). "A strategy is a long term plan of action designed to achieve a particular goal, most often "winning". Strategy is differentiated from tactics or immediate actions with resources at hand by its nature of being extensively premeditated, and often practically rehearsed. Strategies are used to make the problem or problems easier to understand and solve" (Wikipedia, 2008). The purpose of this paper is to critically assess whether Groupe Eurotunnel's current and proposed future strategy is appropriate to competitive and regulatory conditions. Discussion Choice affects outcomes and this is the nature of strategy. Whereas organizations can often function just fine in periods of stability, this is not appropriate for long-term success. Environmental turbulence and competition are sure to increase at some point, at which the company that was relying so heavily on the stability will be adversely affected. This is the very basis of the formation of strategic management. Whatever strategy a company decides to employ will be based on their unique organizational structure, their access to resources, their relationship with the environment, and their desired objective(s) (Wikipedia, 2008). According to the assignment: Capacity on Cross-Channel traffic has grown with the opening of the tunnel in 1994, and with bigger modernized ferries, and fast hydrofoil services. Unlike low-cost airlines where lower prices have led to a growth in travel, demand for vehicle transit across the channel has not also grown rapidly, therefore and intensely competitive situation persists, especially away from holiday 'peaks'. It is easily notable here that while Eurotunnel is experience steadiness, they are not experiencing the growth they desire. People have other choices for travel, such as flying. When the price of airline travel goes down, Eurotunnel experiences less business. The assignment also states: Road freight traffic grows steadily with economic growth in the EU; car traffic (especially from the UK) is largely dependent on shopping and vacation choices. Eurotunnel also has 'rail-user' customers 'Eurostar' and 'Rail-freight'; the former is growing rapidly, the latter has problems. According to the company information that is provided to the public on their corporate website, "Eurotunnel is the holder, until 2086, of the Concession to operate the cross-Channel Fixed Link made up of twin rail tunnels and a service tunnel below the bed of the Straits of Dover, of two terminals in Folkestone (Kent) and Coquelles (Pas-de-Calais) which provide access, as well as a fleet of 25 Shuttles which transport passenger vehicles or trucks.

What Happened on September 9 in Canadian History?

September 9 has witnessed several significant moments in Canadian history, ranging from pioneering technological advancements to notable cultural and legal developments. Canada’s influence in both international conflicts and popular culture becomes clear when examining key events that occurred on this day. This article delves into several important occurrences, offering a snapshot of the diverse history that has shaped the nation. From military innovations during World War I to the establishment of official bilingualism, September 9 represents a variety of notable moments that have had lasting impacts on the country.

What Happened on September 9 in Canadian History?

First Fully Mechanized Unit Created (1914)

On September 9, 1914, the Canadian military made a groundbreaking contribution to the First World War by creating the first fully mechanized unit in the British Army—the Canadian Automobile Machine Gun Brigade. The formation of this brigade demonstrated Canada’s emerging technological expertise and its crucial role in modernizing military warfare. Led by Brigadier-General Raymond Brutinel, the brigade was equipped with armored vehicles capable of moving machine guns across the battlefield with unprecedented speed and efficiency. This innovation gave the Allied forces a distinct advantage during key battles throughout the war.

Canada’s military foresight in developing mechanized units became an essential factor in the modern warfare that defined World War I. The Canadian Automobile Machine Gun Brigade allowed for rapid deployment of machine guns, improving battlefield tactics and minimizing human casualties. Over time, the lessons learned from this mechanization would inform future military strategies and secure Canada’s reputation as a forward-thinking, essential member of the Allied forces.

Hydrofoil Sets Speed Record (1919)

On September 9, 1919, a hydrofoil designed by Canadian inventor Alexander Graham Bell, his wife Mabel Bell, and engineer F.W. Casey Baldwin set a world water speed record of 114 km/h on the Bras d’Or Lake in Nova Scotia. This hydrofoil, known as the HD-4, was a result of Bell’s ongoing fascination with flight and transportation. The record-breaking achievement highlighted Canada’s role in the development of hydrofoil technology, positioning the country as a leader in the field of maritime engineering.

The HD-4’s success was not only a testament to Bell’s inventive spirit but also to the collaborative efforts between Bell, his wife, and Baldwin. Their pioneering work laid the foundation for modern hydrofoil designs, which have since been applied to both commercial and military vessels. The speed record set on September 9 stood as a significant milestone in the field of transportation, showcasing Canadian innovation on the world stage.

Pacific Airlines Flight Explosion (1949)

Tragedy struck on September 9, 1949, when a Pacific Airlines flight en route to Baie-Comeau exploded in mid-air, killing all 23 passengers aboard. The disaster was later revealed to be the result of a bomb planted by Albert Guay, a Quebec-based jeweler, who sought to kill his wife for insurance money. Guay’s crime marked the first instance of a Canadian plane being deliberately bombed, and his subsequent conviction and execution, along with two accomplices, became one of Canada’s most infamous criminal cases.

The Pacific Airlines bombing was a turning point in aviation security in Canada. The event led to significant public outcry and changes in air travel safety measures. Although overshadowed by later air disasters, the bombing on September 9 remains an important event in Canadian criminal history and the history of aviation security.

“Diana” Hits #1 (1957)

In the world of music, September 9, 1957, marked a milestone for Canadian pop star Paul Anka. His song “Diana” reached number one on the Billboard charts, making Anka one of the youngest stars to achieve such success. Born in Ottawa, Anka’s rise to fame at just 16 years old was remarkable, and “Diana” became a massive international hit, helping to solidify his status as one of the most prominent voices in the early era of rock ‘n’ roll.

Anka’s success with “Diana” on September 9 foreshadowed a prolific career that saw him continue to influence popular music, not only as a performer but also as a songwriter. His ability to connect with young audiences through catchy melodies and heartfelt lyrics made him a trailblazer in the Canadian music scene, paving the way for future generations of Canadian musicians.

Official Languages Act Enacted (1969)

A significant moment in Canadian political history occurred on September 9, 1969, with the enactment of the Official Languages Act. This law officially recognized both English and French as the country’s official languages, ensuring that all Canadians could access government services in either language. The act was a direct response to the growing demands for language rights from French-speaking Canadians, particularly in Quebec, and symbolized the federal government’s commitment to bilingualism and the preservation of Canada’s linguistic heritage.

The Official Languages Act on September 9 represented a crucial step in fostering national unity and inclusivity. It laid the foundation for the multicultural and bilingual identity that Canada embraces today, influencing policies across the country. The act was later replaced by a new version in 1988, but its legacy endures as a cornerstone of Canadian national identity.

Bobby Baun Born (1936)

September 9, 1936, saw the birth of one of Canada’s most beloved hockey players, Bobby Baun. Born in Lanigan, Saskatchewan, Baun was a standout defenseman who played the majority of his career with the Toronto Maple Leafs. He is perhaps best known for his heroic performance in the 1964 Stanley Cup Finals, when he famously scored a game-winning goal in overtime after breaking his ankle earlier in the game. This iconic moment cemented Baun’s status as a hockey legend and a symbol of perseverance.

Baun’s impact on Canadian hockey extended beyond his on-ice achievements. His dedication, sportsmanship, and toughness made him a role model for future generations of players. On September 9, Canadians remember Baun not only for his achievements but also for the indelible mark he left on the sport and the nation.

Bruce Palmer Born (1946)

On September 9, 1946, Bruce Palmer, a Canadian bassist best known for his work with the influential band Buffalo Springfield, was born in Liverpool, Nova Scotia. Palmer’s innovative bass playing helped define the sound of Buffalo Springfield, whose hit songs like “For What It’s Worth” became anthems of the 1960s counterculture movement. Though Palmer’s career was relatively brief due to struggles with legal and personal issues, his contributions to the world of rock music remain highly regarded.

Palmer’s birth on September 9 represents the profound influence that Canadian musicians have had on the global music scene. His work with Buffalo Springfield continues to inspire musicians and fans alike, cementing his legacy as one of Canada’s most significant musical exports.

Conclusion

September 9 in Canadian history is a day filled with innovation, tragedy, and cultural achievements. From the creation of the first mechanized military unit during World War I to the establishment of official bilingualism in 1969, this day highlights Canada’s role on both the national and international stages. It also serves as a reminder of the diverse contributions made by Canadians in fields as varied as music, aviation, and military technology. The events of September 9 continue to shape the legacy of the nation, reflecting its resilience, creativity, and commitment to progress.

This week for my activity part of CAS I was kitesurfing. For me What is amazing about the sport is That it has countless opportunities to progress. Because of the multidisciplinarity of the sport I feel like there is always something new. I recently learned hydrofoiling which is a new genre of the sport. It demands a different skill set than freestyle which is what I am used to doing. It kind of feels like levitating. I am now practicing my jibes and trying to progress in that. The crash at the end was due to an ongoing problem I have with foot placement which I plan to work on in the future

2. Hydrofoils

Explore the future of marine transportation with hydrofoils, which use wings to lift the vessel above the water, reducing drag and increasing speed, efficiency, and comfort.

Hydrofoils are a revolutionary technology that has transformed the way we travel on water. These vessels are equipped with wings, known as foils, that extend beneath the hull. As the boat gains speed, the foils generate lift, raising the hull out of the water. This lifting action dramatically reduces drag, allowing the hydrofoil to glide smoothly and effortlessly through the water.

One of the key advantages of hydrofoils is their ability to reach incredible speeds. By reducing drag, hydrofoils can travel faster than traditional boats, making them an ideal choice for those seeking an exhilarating and efficient mode of transportation. Whether you're commuting, exploring, or simply enjoying a leisurely ride, hydrofoils offer a thrilling and comfortable experience.

Moreover, hydrofoils provide exceptional stability on the water. The wings beneath the hull keep the vessel balanced and steady, even in choppy conditions. This stability not only enhances safety but also ensures a smooth and enjoyable ride for passengers.

Additionally, hydrofoils are known for their fuel efficiency. With reduced drag, these vessels require less power to maintain high speeds, resulting in lower fuel consumption and reduced environmental impact. This makes hydrofoils a sustainable choice for marine transportation, aligning with the growing demand for eco-friendly alternatives.

So, whether you're a thrill-seeker, an eco-conscious traveler, or simply someone who appreciates cutting-edge technology, hydrofoils are a must-see in the world of marine transportation. Experience the future of water travel and prepare to be amazed by the speed, efficiency, and comfort that hydrofoils offer.

2.1 Electric Hydrofoils

Discover the eco-friendly alternative to traditional hydrofoils, as electric-powered vessels offer silent and emission-free navigation, revolutionizing the way we travel on water.

Electric hydrofoils are a groundbreaking innovation in the world of marine transportation. By harnessing the power of electricity, these vessels provide a sustainable and environmentally friendly way to explore the waterways. Unlike traditional hydrofoils that rely on fossil fuels, electric hydrofoils eliminate harmful emissions, making them an ideal choice for eco-conscious adventurers.

One of the key advantages of electric hydrofoils is their silent operation. Without the noise and vibrations associated with combustion engines, passengers can enjoy a serene and peaceful journey, allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the surroundings. Whether you're cruising along a tranquil river or gliding across the open sea, the absence of engine noise enhances the overall experience.

Furthermore, electric hydrofoils offer increased efficiency and speed. The electric motors provide instant torque, allowing the vessel to accelerate quickly and smoothly. The absence of drag from traditional propulsion systems enables electric hydrofoils to glide effortlessly above the water, resulting in reduced energy consumption and extended range.

These innovative vessels also open up new possibilities for water sports enthusiasts.
