That was a powerful scene with Harrison there. And I also think you pointed out something interesting, inadvertently perhaps, with your narrative: words like the one Corry used have to be used very, VERY judiciously to have the right impact, and indeed, it did here.
And goodness, has Scotty just been eloquent here: "Don't pull me out o' the dark, just to go there yourself."
Author's Response: In his own, plain-spoken way, aye. Thank you!

That was terrific. A real old-fashioned ship boarding with war-whoops and dueling fists on deck. Once again Corry's there to save Scotty's bacon, and right in the nick of time, too.
Part of me wanted Corry to dash that idiot's brains in, but Scotty's right. It'd cost too much for the little it would gain. That was a brilliant moment between the two of them, a profound understanding achieved amidst the chaos of the surrounding fight.
These two have truly become brothers.
Author's Response: They have indeed. A far cry from the boy who was swinging on Jay McMillan in Junkyard Dogs. Thank you!
