31/8/18 My dear Maxse, Many thanks for your tracts, which I have read with interest. Yes, I think they supply a long felt want, and will be useful to those want to learn, of course, the moment is not very propitious for training propaganda, as the immediate question is the amount of MG fire which is coming from the quarry in U 13.d.35.70.!

( @tormxntum ) the mughal empire had outdone themselves this time. in the aftermath of many nations grief they had gone and thrown caution to the wind for him and his army to catch. he had been walking the perimeter, off-shift; the corridors were quieting, guests had gone to bed, however, off in the distance, the sounds of chatter echoed. the sun had gone down long ago, the moon was ripe, casting shadows out across the courtyard like paintings upon artistic tile. the gardens were empty, no movement catches his attention in the fields; he was alone. with his attention on his feet as he rounds a corner, he doesn't see them until he's standing out in the open. dark curls, pretty eyes, strong cheekbones, agility, command; he supposed, if the light of the moon had struck them in any other way, his breath might've stilled in his chest. instead he stood still, watching them from a silent distance, the quick pace of their heart causing tremors to erupt in their hands. they persuaded their mind into believing they felt like earthquakes, their aftershocks felt by cailean's energy field, wishing to draw them closer, even though they wished to remain separate. profanity hits the air, his feet take him forward to find cover behind a column but miscalculation and fixation causes his shoulder to come up solid against it instead. "f*cking hell..." he mutters, his back to the pillar in hopes the other truly hadn't noticed them. he rubs the spot gingerly to remove the deep ache stone had manifested there but close footsteps make their stomach flutter.

Terror Lieutenant Playlists

Can't stop thinking about The Terror lately. Somehow this has resolved itself into making playlists for the Terror lieutenants.

They're hopeless. They're horrible. They're delightful. They're disasters. Sometimes they rise to an occasion. More usually, they slip flailingly beneath the merciless waves of fate and their own shortcomings. Or strengths that become shortcomings in the wrong situations. They try really, really hard.

It's not enough. It's never enough.

Anyway you can listen here--

Little

Irving

Hodgson

(I think I "get" Hodgson much less than the others. I think Little's and Irving's musical tastes would be earnest and [mostly] straightforward, but Hodgson is into all kinds of esoteric oddities, of which I am too square to be aware. So if his is too mainstream, I'm sorry.)

#the terror #george hodgson #edward little #john irving #terror lieutenants #are these songs they would like or songs that describe parts of their narrative arcs? #both i think #i hope #also in regards to irving--the real-life irving crept into more of the song choices simply because there's more info about him out there. #anyway 'the birks of invermay' wipes the floor with 'hampstead is the place to ruralize' as an ostensibly cheerful pastoral ditty #that can abruptly swerve into melancholic evocation of death. just ask robert fergusson.
