On a related note, if you're an Evangelion fan who never stumbled across the very weird officially-produced audio comedy After the End before, I highly recommend it. Fan translation available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvLfQSoVhrM

Jack Aubrey you gotta stop. Your plans too impulsive. Your actions too cool. Your baddies married to post captains. They'll court martial you Jack Aubrey.

Star Trek AU where everything's the same except Miles O'Brien was pressed into service on the Enterprise

here I was thinking not enough fictional get press-ganged onto space-ships but Andy Weir said ‘wait and see’

All of Jack's friends putting on a brave face when he's assigned to the Polychrest.

My assessment of the Aubreyad now that I'm three books in

[moratplayerofgames]

"Can we not simply set them both down on shore, and sail quietly away? On separate shores, if you have strong feelings on the moral issue..."

To be honest, a lot of that song sounds like it could be coming from the POV of a Culture warship. I could totally imagine opening one of the books and being introduced to the ROU No More Little Angels Sitting on my Shoulder

Look to Windward?? The classic sci-fi book from the 2000’s??? The book my grandpa loves ?? Jesus Vessel IS a nerd crazy style

My partner did not recognize Vessel's British accent and thought that the band was American. They've been listening to this band for months XD

As long as it's properly breeched!

So first of all, Stephen was sleeping with literally a bag over his head? Like a flour sack? Hmmm, erotic dream, you say? Oh, do elaborate…

Just finished Post Captain and I gotta say I was not expecting the strength of emotion it brought out of me, particularly this scene and everything surrounding it. My boys learned to talk about their feelings!

Friendly reminder for tomorrow!
