William Laurence, almost once every book: I know you have no reason to even want to stay :(( but maybe :((( you might take a job here? It's ok if no tho u do u I'd miss u tho but you shouldnt stay if u dont want to...
Tenzing Tharkay, who has been Ride or Die ever since Laurence swore honesty and loyalty to him in the streets of Istanbul, asking nothing but the same in return: idk maybe

I love Mando's vibe. Imagine some guy rolling up to your shop in a beat up honda civic. He steps out wearing an armani suit. He opens his wallet and offers you two dollars to fix his car.

You know how Laurence calls Temeraire “My Dear” all the time? Imagine 1960s-70s aviators constantly calling their dragons “Babe”.
“Oh babe. I would choose you over any space launch.”

sea shanties masterpost
“one man cannot bring in the anchor. ten men cannot bring in the anchor. but together we can.”
making this because it’s useful for my specific brand of dramaturgy and i generally have a good deal of feelings about sea shanties. these are the result of far too much time searching around for shanties that are both authentic and have a tune that can be found on the internet. organized by theme.
these can all be done a capella, obviously, but if you want accompaniment, getting your hands on a concertina would be ideal.
