Yay! Another review for Charlotte and the crew in Tales of the Starbound Glory, this time from @InBrightestDay. From InBrightestDay on July 14, 2019 Okay, full disclosure, given some of your other stories and the name of the ship...I actually thought this was going to be about space pirates before I started reading. You still have your flair for action, and the attack on the French ship is visceral, not to mention that bit where, while disabling Abraham's hands, Charlotte ends up slashing him in a very...personal place. He had it coming, but holy shit did that make me cringe. Related to that, when Charlotte throws him out onto the deck, all the other crewmen attack him. While I'm sure they know he's a perennial screwup, they don't necessarily know what he's done this time, only that their captain saw fit to punish him violently, and that's all they need to know. I bring this up because while there were female pirates (Anne Bonny being one of the most famous), they were a definite minority, to the point that the ship's contract sometimes outright forbade women from being onboard. Charlotte's male crew, meanwhile, is fiercely loyal to her, and I'd imagine there's a really interesting story about how she won their respect. Charlotte felt her heart racing. She didn't understand. Not completely. This actually made me laugh, because that was kind of my reaction. I mean, Isolde was almost raped, and then was in the mood really fast. I'm not complaining, mind you, since the sexual content was quite well done and pretty hot. I did also like that bit where Charlotte attempts to flip across Isolde and ends up missing the bed and falling on the floor. I think we've all misjudged where the bed ends at some point in our lives, so that made me laugh. *** Okay, full disclosure, given some of your other stories and the name of the ship...I actually thought this was going to be about space pirates before I started reading. Lol. I certainly thought about making it space pirates, but a certain someone, I thought, would enjoy it as historical pirates. I certainly did writing it. .

I'm glad my action scenes still have the attention capturing hold. Lol. I enjoyed writing it in the quick, rapid pacing with bloody violence, despite the research into cannon fire and the chain shot. I'm glad it made you cringe, it was definitely meant to. As for the crew, I definitely wanted to show that most are unconditionally loyal to Charlotte. Always a few whi would be problems. This so that eventually i might be able to expland as they come to. I did also like that bit where Charlotte attempts to flip across Isolde and ends up missing the bed and falling on the floor. I think we've all misjudged where the bed ends at some point in our lives, so that made me laugh. Lol. Yep. I read somewhere that mistakes work for a first time scene and really felt that it works in terms of Charlotte's character. Lol.

Chapter 14 (Straight to Hell) is posted after a very long hiatus.

Well, well, I'm back... And a new oneshot from Discord prompts and a new review! Gracious thanks to @CloverReef on Plundering Booty in the Tales of the Starbound Glory oneshot prompt anthology. From PlagueClover on July 12, 2019 Awesome story. Nice and bloody, and with just enough girly bits smooshing together. Good job dude I'm glad. I'm not the greatest with pirates, but I'm definite looking forward to playing more with Charlotte, Isolde, and the rest. .

Much prefer long to never. Especially a good and well written story like B&L. Lol. It's been done wonderfully. And given my own recent experience writing tentacles, I can see the fun involved. . And I think you did well in combining the two opposite spectrums into a disturbing, yet interesting and kinky, scene. The intro of the Devil is creepy enough to add to the environment and well done creep vibe. As for what just happened, there's several things I can think of, but that's the Joy's of reading, after all . And definitely loved the zombie vibe while reading. Reminded me of a few old movies, like the good old Romero films. As for the line, I thought I recognized it, but I still laughed my ass off at it and I think it works far better in the context here than Battle: LA. Lol. Adding YouTube and headlines definitely works. Recently saw a headline on YouTube "I Gave Birth To Demon" and when I was reading yours, it was like... Yep, sounds like people. Spread any information they can without facts. Or blurring them into obscurity. Honestly, I think it works fantastically. I like this change. I think it works for the better. Expanding on Mia allows for a better experience in terms of the characters and has been allowing a more realistic feel to them. I actually like it. Specifically because there's a chance of following the cliche (albeit built up enough by the bookstore being frequented by Sabine and the reason being a relative, who sticks the books with hers) or subverting that cliche. But still, well done in writing the scene. I do like the portrayal you have. It kind of feels natural. Although, not my experience, so maybe I'm off wildly. But, that said, it is possible that her own transformation is affecting her too. She seems to shift addictions (from drugs to sex to drugs to sex almost based off what she can get around her). And that's a good idea. Thumbs up! And yeah... Bring more Sam! More Sam! More Sam!! (Lol .) I do like her interactions between them and the fact that Kris thinks of her more than occasionally shows her love for Sam as deeply as she does. AND... As always, you're welcome for it. It's a great story and I eagerly await the next installment.

@InBrightestDay… Well, that's quite an evaluation. Lol. Being completely honest, I enjoy hearing the thoughts, theories, ideas, and even some forms of canon not of my own. Hearing that my writing gets people thinking, I'm glad. And unlike some people, what I fully intended to be isn't the end all and be all, so there isn't really any wrong thought. . I'm kind of laid back like that. Lol. (Besides, all reading lends itself to the reader's perspective as they do.

Well, it seems Last Full Measure is popular... At least with @InBrightestDay, who graciously leaves another review. (On the opposite news, I'm starting to think I might just need to replace the shelf.) From InBrightestDay on March 24, 2019 Well, I feel rather conflicted with this one. I mean, since Chapter 1 Celeste has been putting herself and others in danger by hiding her illness. On the other hand, I can't help but feel bad for her because...well, woman's mentally ill, and is in that state because of horrific trauma. The same applies to other characters. Lian and Adara are covering for Celeste, which could well get her (or them) killed, but you can understand why they're doing it too. It's unprofessional, and normally when you care for someone as Lian and Adara clearly do for Celeste, you want them to get help, but right now, removing her from the team will mean...what? There aren't exactly surviving therapists on Hecatoncheires given the monster attack, so they'd have to keep her under guard, I suppose, which would use up yet more personnel, whom they are going to need if and when the monsters return... So yeah, sympathy for everyone's decisions here. On the other end of the emotional spectrum, I laughed a lot at the swearing in this chapter, with my personal favorites being "Holy flaming dogshit!" and "Fuck me with a spoon." Finally, we now have confirmation that this was notdone by humans, but what are these creatures? Now Celeste and a small team are going underground, which is usually a bad thing to do in a monster movie, so things are likely to get dicey… *** Well, I feel rather conflicted with this one.

So yeah, sympathy for everyone's decisions here. I will admit, I was really worried about adding that in. On one side, I know that to many people, it makes Celeste selfish and, as such, unsympathetic as she is actively putting people in danger knowing her condition. On the other, to some, I know it would be sympathetic; a flawed character in the way that people could associate with. In the end, I kind of went for what worked for the story (even if, to some, she becomes disliked and hated). On the other end of the emotional spectrum, I laughed a lot at the swearing in this chapter, with my personal favorites being "Holy flaming dogshit!" and "Fuck me with a spoon." Lol. I'm glad you laughed at them. I certainly wanted to avoid the "direct" approach. And, while flaming dogshit is not in my vernacular, "well, fuck me with a spoon" is definitely one of mine when it comes to being surprised. Finally, we now have confirmation that this was notdone by humans, but what are these creatures? Now Celeste and a small team are going underground, which is usually a bad thing to do in a monster movie, so things are likely to get dicey… Well, I certainly hope it comes out as dicey. Its definitely trying to be written like that. Lol.

Thanks, BW. Thought I'd let you know (even after reporting) in case he went around and caused trouble.

Apparently I've attracted enough of a following that people want to be me. There is a new user ".tcr" running around. I submitted a report on my Star Trek Adventurer promo page, as this one wants so badly to be me, he tried to write a chapter of it there. Not sure about it, but, figured I'd let you know before he really goes out and starts affecting things.

Chapter 12 (Conflicted) is posted. Hurrah!
