I would like to think that I have formed a sort of family aboard this vessel, though it's always open for expansion.

I've always desired to have a younger brother, you know. Ah, for a chance at molding a younger psyche, leading it down the paths I never took. I could take him ice-fishing in the winters, trail-running in the summers, and wine-tasting every spring. Through autumn we'd write melancholy stories and read them to each other late into the night, with a lantern hidden under a fort of flannel.

Now where could I possibly find myself a boy who could nestle comfortably into my fraternal net? Who indeed!

I... dunno.

shipshapeshipco October 8 2009, 05:38:07 UTC

Where oh where could my brother be? Let me think. Doo-doo-doo, how about you? Can you, my dapper young friend, imagine someone who would benefit from the wisdom and playful chides of an older sibling? Someone who would enjoy the endless enjoyment to be had? Haha!

[No is his first choice, but then again...]

D'you know Akagi?

[He hasn't forgiven the other boy for the cap gun incident.]

The alleyways of our lifetimes have conjoined on a few glimmering occasions.

throwslikedavid October 8 2009, 06:02:24 UTC

[...he's going to take that as a yes.]

Well, I'm sure he'd like to be your little brother.

shipshapeshipco October 8 2009, 06:16:00 UTC

That is a distinct possibility, isn't it?

throwslikedavid October 8 2009, 06:20:26 UTC

Yeah.

[All he knows is that he gets more than enough of Samuel across the radio.]

shipshapeshipco October 8 2009, 22:37:08 UTC

But don't think that I've put all my finches on the same perch, Billy. Remember: when it comes to the company of young boys, I'm always wide open!

[Silly Billy, there's always room for Samuel!]

throwslikedavid October 9 2009, 00:09:39 UTC

[Not in his life.]

Right.

nantokanare October 9 2009, 00:59:48 UTC

No.

I haven't been preemptively rejected that swiftly since I was turned away from my own sixteenth birthday party. Kudos to you, sir. If you need me, I'll be sighing discontentedly outside your door- after all, that almost worked at my party, so it's worth a second go!

nantokanare October 9 2009, 04:07:54 UTC

If you weren't allowed in, it wasn't really your party.

shipshapeshipco October 9 2009, 04:16:11 UTC

Au contraire- it was in my honor, in the very same light and logic that tells us a sailor's funeral is his own; Only this time, I was the only one weeping. Ah-hah, the golden memories of youth!

nantokanare October 9 2009, 04:22:14 UTC

You're strange.

shipshapeshipco October 9 2009, 04:24:38 UTC

"Strange, strange, you've got the mange, your odor can reach an immeasurable range!"

To-hoho! It's just like we're children again!
