litera scripta manet

M&C, 1.547 words, no slash yet.

( Chapter Five, in which Stephen embarks on a field trip and Jack comes to a conclusion. )

Chapter Three, 1.622 words, still no slash yet.

( Chapter Three, in which Stephen is quite oblivious and Jack spots a sail at the horizon. )

Here's the first chapter, no slashy goodness yet.

Disclaimer: I hardly know anything about the period and I haven't read the books (I'm on page 56 of the first novel). I'm making this up as I go. Any inconsistencies with the books/ history/ even the movie are solely my fault but have to be expected. *gulp* Not mine. No dishonour intended.

Enough with the blabbing, here's the first chapter, 1.172 words.


( Chapter One, in which Stephen acquires a curious apparatus, and Jack is immensely pleased with himself. )
