Magnificent!

XD Thank you very much for that- I enjoy Shakespeare a lot! I've actually gone through a similar knife-table experience. I had to recite for class and it was only after I had ended that I realised I had stabbed myself with my pen as during the course of the recitation. Bit painful, but people told me it was quite nicely dramatic.

I vote for a follow up Shakespeare piece with Malcolm and Trip as Hamlet and Horatio!

That was a really great story! I truly enjoyed it! Keep up the good work!

The Swordsman

*snort* love the part about the knife. Malcolm sure knows how to tease his captain ;).

Wow, just...wow! I'm speechless, just imaging Malcom standing up and doing his speech with his amazing accent! Great work! :-)

Just started on another Shakespeare class, so this was wonderfully timely for me. It's great to think about Malcolm reciting the Bard.

Reminds me of Picard/Stewart.

I love this story (even if I would have chosen Sir Ian McKellan's version of Richard I). Shakespeare and Star Trek definitely go together. It would seem that movie night would offer a myriad of opportunities to present little sidelights on all of the characters. I hope you will consider doing more in this vein as this story was so enjoyable.

I loved it!
Malcolm and Shakespeare -- two of my favorite people!
You've made my day. Kudos on a terrific story!

LOL very funny - loved the interplay between Archer and Malcolm. And Hoshi's sarcastic line in the middle was good... as was the image of a 16 year old Malcolm in tights!

Great job!

I read this story somewhere before, and I really liked it. That would really be a Malcolm trait, the quiet armoury officer citing Shakespeare with a passion!

LOVE IT! I can totally picture Malcolm, and therefore Dominic, doing an astounding performance of this story. The knife part is just stunning. What a fantastic idea! I love both Shakespeare and Star Trek Enterprise, so this is a dream combination. Thanks so much!
