We're not getting our own Adrift episode, are we? Swimming in March... hm, how long would they last before hypothermia had set in, if they didn't drown first?
Hopefully that annoying woman doesn't sink the case, especially not with how much work Loren put in it!
Keeter/Skates romance in the future? Anything happening with Hernandez and Sommers yet? Will Harm's report to Chegwidden point out Sturgis' inflexibility and how it's detrimental? Poor Loren, taking Harm's absence so hard. Here's hoping she doesn't need to worry even more because of Harm taking an unscheduled swim in March of all times.
Btw., that part about Skates drooling sounds familiar... ;-)
Oh God - PLEEEEEEEEASE dont let them take a dive in the drink - we really don't need a repeat of Adrift. That double episode is not one of my favourites...
Trevor - Great to see you still writing - even if it is at a slower rate that before. Hope you are on the mend and will be back to your usual self soon.
This was a wonderful chapter and as always you know I cant wait to read more - of this story and the others.
Another brilliant chapter. who does Loftness think he is havcing a go at Harm like that, but at least Skates put the idiot in his place. Can't wait for the next !
Another great update! I have to confess I actually sung out loud "across a crowded room" without thinking! Thankfully no-one was in reception at the time lol! I really love South Pacific, and especially that song! There was so much in this chapter that I don't know where to start! Here goes anyway! I loved the intimacy between Harm and Loren, and I loved it when she zoned out at JAG and Carolyn caught her! But you had to bring food into it didn't you, and me on a diet! I really drooled over those eclairs! It's a shame that Mac and Harm were interrupted by Lt. Hawkins, because I think it would have helped their relationship a lot. I can't believe there's a bigger gossip than Harriet lol! Also loved the wrath of Chegwidden line! Now, just one question, did Harm finish off his report before leaving to go to the Patrick Henry, or did he forget in his excitement? I loved the enthusiasm shown by Lt. Leighton, and it's great how you've bought Keeter into this! I don't much like Commander Loftness but I loved how Skates immediately went on the defensive! Also loved her reaction to Harm's news. Eagerly looking forward to more. btw thanks for the recommendation of Saissa's fic, I've just finished reading it, and it was great. Well done for helping her with it.
You nailed anal retentive Sturgis very well. Now for the real reason I'm reviewing. I know where you're going. Harm is rushing to get to Charlottesville to be with Loren. If you dump Harm in the Atlantic during a storm, I'm going to stop reading you. Still can't wait for more.
"Which is just as it should be!" the gruff voice of their CO spilled over their shoulders
* * * ROFL! Great one, RAbb! :D
x
"Hey, Harry it's Harm Rabb. Listen, unless it's classified, I need one little snippet of information…"
* * * Ah, lovely to see Harm having friends and contacts outside of JAG, since it's after all quite expected he'd have them.
x
"Probably true, but at least our weekend wouldn't be threatened.
* * * And THIS is the most obvious proof of how his priorities had changed. A short while ago he would've been glad to spend as much time on a carrier as possible, but now... :)
x
"Hey Marie, how are you?"
"I'm good," a slightly puzzled Beth Hawkes replied.
* * * I'm confused? Later: no, I'm not confused, you had your mind on someone else when you wrote that. :P The lovely Siber sure did a number on you,huh? ;-P
x
"I want to go and play,"
* * * ROFLMAO at how he put it. :D The "Fancy coming with me?" was a nice touch too! :)
x
Well, yeah, but it is for an official investigation, Marie
* * * How many times and how many people he had to specially assure with that is a little worrying... ;-) The military runs on favors. :D
x
Those damn Tomcats weigh about thirty tons and can do twice the speed of sound. They land at some ridiculous speed on a tiny patch of rolling, pitching iron in the middle of the ocean and are snatched to a standstill two seconds after hitting the deck."
* * * Holy hell, that sounds fantastic! And alluring and seductive and thrilling and something I'd definitely love to do!
x
-I couldn't ask him to do that for me, Carolyn. They are so much a part of what he does, what he is.
-But it's going to have to be something that he wants to do, that he decides for himself, I can't make that choice for him.
-I'm damn sure I'm not going to let my fear of him flying rule or ruin our lives!"
* * * And that's why she's the perfect woman for him! Mac should've heard this answer...
x
Just as he spoke the pair of Super Hornets broke free of the lower layer of cloud cover and climbed past the Tomcat, the leader waggling his wings as he did so.
* * * It's the camaradrie among fighter pilots that always spoke to me. Among bikers it's present, but to a lesser degree.
x
"the good word is out, you're here to do your quals?"
* * * Wow, news sure travels fast! Faster than even a damn Tomcat.
x
"OK Hammer, but if he pulls a stunt like that, I'll…"
* * * It's great Harm has such friends like Skates.
x
Commander Loftness stalked across the deck towards them anger showing in every line and every movement of his body,
* * * What an asshole, hopefully teaches him a lesson soon!
Who the heck is this Loftness character telling Rabb how to do a trap when he has made thousands of traps before?
Loftness is dumb - IMO.
Unless it turns out that loftness was the cause of the mishap in the first place - the pilot said a Hornet and Loftness didnt see it was a super hornet or maybe he already knew it was a super hornet and left the tension wire for a hornet.
Oh - maybe this is why Loftness is jealous? Because Rabb has connections that got him out to the Henry in a matter of hours without having to wait for the next COD?
And as for the almost foul-wire for Rabbs trap - he recovered very well from it - so why the heck is Loftness telling him he didnt do it right?
Methinks Loftness cause the original mishap and is probably very jealous of Rabb - just as Skates says.
Mac is doing good - she is learning.
Loren needs to stop daydreaming and try and stop being scared. I know its scary to know your loved on is out there in a carrier flying around, but Rabb is one of the most experienced pilots in the entire fleet. She needs to trust that.
I like the young RIO too - the one from New Mexico. Seems a lot of Jack Keeter (and by osmosis - Harmon Rabb) has rubbed off onto that young man.
I sure hope Rabb can get this mishap cleared up smartly so he can be back in time to take Lauren flying on Sundays. I think she is due for another lesson from Mike the zoomie.
Great Chapter Trevor. Looking forward to more next week.
Ha, fooled you! Managed to read one more update today, yippee! I laughed out loud at Harm's reaction to Loren's laughing at his corniness, and then Meg did the same lol! Good to see the ball rolling on getting all those involved arrested and charged. Did feel a bit sorry for Booker, he honestly thought he was obeying orders, but then again anyone with an ounce of brain would have questioned such orders. Shame like Chegwidden said that it took a suicide of a bright young woman to bring all this to book. Also good to see Harm and Gibbs sort of bury the hatchet. Looking forward to more. Definitely signing off now!
