Lost, Drifting - Chapter 7 - A Mirror to the Past
Tumblr media
"Will you speak to my mother, then?" Kate turned her questioning gaze to him as they walked, their hands clasped together swaying with every step. “About a courtship?” "Yes, Kate." He replied dutifully for what was probably the umpteenth time in the past ten minutes. "But you will do it today, yes?" "Kate..." He groaned, sighing tiredly. "Won't you allow me some time? To think of what to say and prepare?" "No." ________________________________________________________________
After finally being forced to admit his own feelings and accept them as they were, Anthony and Mary have a very important talk as the nurse reveals more about her life before she married Arjun Sharma.
HELLO MY DARLINGS! HAPPY FOUR DAYS TILL SEASON 3! UGH, I'M SO EXCITED! ARE YOU EXCITED? I SURE AM!
To celebrate (a lil late sure) mothers' day, let's see our fave Nurse being a great mum, shall we?
To my girlies @harnitbee and @ladystanbury, again all the thanks for all the help and support while I wrote this chaos. I would never have done it without you.
I also have been plotting (with their kind help) the next parts of this story and I have to say... This is so easily going to pass the 100K mark. It's actually very funny looking back at the story to the moment I said the backstory of how Anthony and Kate came to be together would be one chapter, maybe two (looks back at the 7th chapter and 50k words where they just admitted their feelings for each other). What a joke.
I hope you enjoy this. Let me know what you think so I can survive till Thursday.
Lots of Love,
Cee

I’m not sure what irritates me the most about this book:
“socks can be easily modified for a perfect fit”
“creating a sock is a magical experience”
insinuating that women during WWI were largely constrained in war work to knitting and that they knit because they “were forbidden to bear” arms.

just checked the word doc which has my draft of the shrewsbury wound-john bradmore sequence, thinking it was around 10k long. it's actually 19,242 words long. double what i thought it was. holy crap.
#text posts#the henry v novels#literally just goes from hal waking up immediately post-shrewsbury to hal waking up immediately post-operation#and the start of a timeskip to his 17th birthday#(i kinda want to revise it to put in stuff from what i learnt about facial injuries in wwi caused by shrapnel and add in two more joans)#(joan of navarre and joan waryn hal's nurse - joan fitzalan is already there)#reread it recently and thought about how the alternate povs of it would be SO UPSETTING#hal's pov is somewhat kind to the reader because he's pretty out of it#he's either out of it with rudimentary medieval painkillers and anaesthesia or off his face with pain.#there's still emotional shit there but it's filtered through the physical pain and the 'drugs'#everyone else is dealing with the emotional shitshow of seeing someone you love in absolute fucking agony begging to die#while fearing he's going to die and having their own traumas#(i.e. joan fitzalan watching the grandchild that most resembles her dead daughter almost die)#(i.e. edward/aumerle has a brief appearance and you know he's Fucked Up because of losing richard ii and now he's losing hal)#(i.e. richard courtenay is basically 'i will stay here and love him as he dies if he dies' and witnesses every. fucking. thing.)#(i.e. joanne waryn is there and remembering him as a little baby she helped raise.)#(i.e. humphrey is Just A Kid trying to be strong for his big brother and making everything worse for bradmore)#(i.e. scrope can't cope and has to live with the guilt of that and oldcastle is overwrought and causing problems)#(i.e. bradmore is like 'i can see you're in desperate need of a dad. hello desperate need i'm dad.#also. i think your grandma might kill me if you die. so. don't ok?)#(i.e. joan of navarre is meeting her new husband's son for the first time and hoping he doesn't die.)#and hal's just. largely oblivious to all this.
