Anne Jane Thornton, a 15-year-old girl, dressed as a cabin boy on a transatlantic voyage to find the man she loved, who had gone to America in 1832. On arrival, she found he had died so she took posts on other ships, calling herself Jim Thornton. On her return crossing to London on The Sarah, a crew member noticed that she was a woman and she was taken to the ship's captain, who kept her on as a crewman.

Recently watched: bizarre 1994 comedy Cabin Boy. I’ve always loved Chris Elliott’s anarchic appearances on the golden age of Late Night with David Letterman (thankfully they’re preserved on YouTube) and was curious to see his one big stab at movie stardom Cabin Boy. Last night when I was crashed out on the sofa flipping through TV stations, I found that it was playing! I liked Cabin Boy’s freewheeling kitschy Pee-wee Herman vibes (Tim Burton produced it). I know Cabin Boy flopped at the time, but maybe it’s due for potential cult movie reappraisal? Anyway, I didn’t manage to finish it (it was late at night by time I started watching) but I did see the guest star appearance by the fabulous Ann Magnuson as alluring six-armed, blue-skinned temptress Calli (pictured).

My pirate kid, Yugo has gotten a recent update as I wanted to get his design to be a bit from his original from 2008; and he has fur due to being from a cold climate but his species can adapt to other climates. He had always had a partner Mugen the Stox (Stoat/Fox) who was originally a moogle name Mog (lol). My story with Laszlo and Yugo was inspired by both the Zelda and Final Fantasy series at the time. Getting back with Yugo, he was an illiterate and a messy kid who was afraid of the water. Now, he can read a little (only from his text), not a messy boy and can only tolerate little bodies of water. But he is afraid of the deep due to his PTSD as he was accidentally pushed off from the ship when he was younger. He did have a stitch on his belly but changed it into a scar from a "horrible event" in later chapters. Lastly, Yugo and Mugen are a team as they steal from the greed, and give to the need.
