Arc of the Wolf: On the Nature of Wind

Outstanding writing. Even though we know very well that Scotty will survive the night and go on to be an exemplary officer, you do wonderfully at immersing the reader in his NOW, when things aren't so certain.

Very well done.

That's the biggest problem; when you know canon, you know how the story goes. But, if I am able to at least drag a reader in, then I'm not doing too bad -- thanks for the comment! I sure hope it doesn't disappoint.
 
I really enjoy your Scott tales. I just finished Pt I and was chuckling over the uncle-mugging. I can see why Scotty was so shy-I grew up in a large, boisterous family too and sometimes you just want to crawl under the table and hide from the ruckus. Great read so far!

I think it was a combination of both -- mostly left to wander solo, then being thrown into big, loud family situations on occasion, which would be even more of a shock. Really appreciate the comments, thank you!

Wow, talk about hitting rock bottom. I sure hope for both their sakes that there's nowhere to go but up...
 
I remember, when I wrote this, that it was very hard to actually do it. Thanks for the comment!

My, my...Quark would be proud of their wheeling and dealing, but I think Garak would have a thing or two to say to them about the need to be subtle and disciplined while spying and interrogating!! :rommie:

I do hope they catch the ones who torched their ship, though, and give them a lot of grief!

I think at this age they are now, twenty-one and twenty-two respectively, Garak would scare the heck right out of them. :lol: I can only imagine that one.

Corry> He did say he was a tailor, right?
Scotty> (shaking his head) That's the scariest tailor I've ever laid eyes on, then.
Corry> Oh, good. It wasn't just me thinking that.

That is a driving element of the story, here, yeah.

Thanks for the comment!

Oh, MAN...I couldn't stop laughing when they started putting guns on the Lady Grey--twenty-four-gun salute indeed!!! :D

LMAO! It's funny; when I was twenty-one and wrote it, I thought, "Wow, that's gonna be awesome!" Now, I'm twenty-eight and a mother of two and think, "Typical boys. Blow stuff up. DO YOU REALIZE HOW DANGEROUS THIS IS?!"

And yet, I still adore them for it.

Thanks for the comment!
