NOTES: Beautiful HD capture of one of the Final Dress Rehearsals. Top notch production and thrilling performances from Alice, Keaton, and the whole cast! This is quite a unique capture since it was the first time the blood was dropped. Too many amazing things to point out here, don't miss this one!!! A+ Well filmed with a nice mix of close-ups and full stage shots and no obstructions. Based on the revised Off-Broadway version, and presented at the Balagan Theatre. Because this was recorded at the final run-through prior to opening night, there are a few “holds” as they worked out any kinks: * After “Evening Prayers” there is a hold to change all microphone batteries, resulting in most of the song being run a second time (the sound check was removed and put as a bonus at the end of act two). * During the scene where Carrie is getting ready for the prom a microphone made a "farting" noise and Alice grabbed her butt and said "sorry" which made the cast and tech crew laugh.

Carrie: The Musical - Seattle - October 13, 2013 (Pro-Shot's master)

FORMAT: MP4 (SD)

NOTES: One of the first regional productions of the revised Carrie. Good to have Ripley in something.

FORMAT: MP4 (SD)

CAST: Julie Kleiner (Carrie White), Vivienne Cleary (Margaret White), Nina Sturtz (Miss Gardner), Kaily Smith (Chris), Erin Evers (Sue), Blair Late (Tommy)

NOTES: Another abridged version. Video suffers from gen loss but has cleaned up decently. Piano is the only instrument in the orchestra, and it drowns out some of the singers. This has been incorrectly labelled as an authorized production,which is incorrect - this was an unauthorized production (e.g., no rights were secured before the production), though Gore (and Cohen) were in the audience of this performance and chose not to sue Jeff Murphy and Stagedoor over copyright infringement, partly because Gore said he had always wanted to see the show done with actual teenagers (reported by Jeff Murphy, the director).

CAST: Linzi Hateley (Carrie White), Barbara Cook (Margaret White), Sally Ann Triplett (Sue Snell), Paul Gyngell (Tommy Ross), Charlotte d'Amboise (Chris Hargensen), Gene Anthony Ray (Billy Nolan), Darlene Love (Lynn Gardner)

NOTES: Filmed professionally for the RSC archives on the third night of the performance (February 16, 1988). Shot from first row mezzanine center with no obstructions with audio taken directly from the soundboard. Mostly a full stage shots without zooms. This is usually incorrectly labelled as "Opening Night (February 13, 1988)", which is incorrect, as on opening night, Barbara Cook was almost decapitated right after the set changes from "Don't Waste The Moon", which not seen in this video (also verified by the person who copied this from the archives).

NOTES: Fun show with very imaginative staging, though I do wish they used more songs from (either) movie. The first 5 minutes of Act One has some wandering and blackouts, but after that it is a steady and unobstructed shot. Includes curtain call.

Chasing Rainbows - Paper Mill Playhouse - October, 2019 (StarCuffedJeans's master)

FORMAT: MP4 (HD)

CAST: Karen Mason (Ma Lawlor), Stephen DeRosa (LB Mayer), Colin Hanlon (Roger Edens), Karen Mason (Kay Koverman), Ruby Rakos (Judy Garland), Lesli Margherita (Ethel Gumm), Max von Essen (Frank Gumm), Michael Wartella (Mickey Rooney)

NOTES: Great HD capture of this Judy Garland bio musical focusing on her early years, leading up to The Wizard of Oz, with a couple of fun tap numbers! Act One starts when Judy sings a version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow (same tune but with different lyrics). Act Two starts part way through the number right before they enter the MGM studio. Please do not post screenshots of this video on Twitter ever. Gifs on Tumblr are okay after the NFT date, but don't go linking things to actors and shows.

The Cher Show - Broadway - April, 2019 (StarCuffedJeans's master)

NOTES: Beautiful HD close-ups but some long drop-outs and quite a few obstructed scenes. The rake in the mezzanine at the Neil Simon kinda stinks and I'm pretty sure the ushers were playing flashlight tag with each other the entire show. but I began to care a lot less as the night went on Video is very Cher-centric...choreography in "Dark Lady" is captured beautifully, but for the rest of the show I was mostly focused on getting those Stephanie, Teal, and Micaela zooms. We start at the scene before "Half Breed" and when Stephanie tells everyone to stand up for the finale it's all over for my filming ability.

NOTES: The original Broadway cast filmed prior to moving to Broadway. Professionally filmed using multiple cameras for the Lincoln Center Theatre on Film and Tape (TOFT) archives. Newly surfaced video which is a HUGE improvement over the previous version which has been in circulation for a while. This is also complete and includes the opening announcement alerting the audience that the show is being filmed. Amazing quality, but still has a little generational loss. In black and white. The DVD has been enhanced with chapter stops for all of the musical numbers. This, along with the tapes of Crazy for You and Passion, is amongst the only three TOFT tapes that have been leaked.

CAST: Fantasia Barrino (Celie), Reva Rice (u/s Shug Avery), Felicia P Fields (Sofia), Rufus Bonds Jr (Mister), Stu James (Harpo), LaToya London (Nettie), Tiffany Daniels (Squeak)

NOTES: This is the performance following the day Fantasia missed two performances from "Food Poisioning", which made the Chicagoland News. Despite that, she still gives a great performance as Celie and has such a powerful voice. Reva knocks it out of the park as Shug! A

Come From Away - Australia - 2019 (Highlights) (Press Reel's master)

CAST: Zoe Gertz (Beverley/Annette & others), Douglas Hansell (Kevin T./Garth & others), Richard Piper (Claude & others), Simon Maiden (Oz & others), Sarah Morrison (Janice & others), Nicholas Brown (Kevin J./Ali & others), Nathan Carter (Nick/Doug & others), Katrina Retallick (Diane & others), Sharriese Hamilton (Hannah & others), Emma Powell (Beulah & others), Kellie Rode (Bonnie & others), Kolby Kindle (Bob & others)

NOTES: HD capture of the Australian company of this fantastic musical. Includes a video of a post-show Q&A with the cast in honour of the 18th anniversary of September 12. Shot from the back row of the dress circle, so a head blocks the centre at times but it’s shot around where possible. Most noticeable in the group numbers where a lot of the action is downstage. The first 4 minutes or so is mostly wandering shots as I was setting up my camera and evading ushers. A lot of great close-ups - Zoe’s “Me and the Sky” is a highlight.

Come From Away - Toronto - January 7, 2020 (The Musical Speakeasy's master)

FORMAT: MP4 (HD)

CAST: Eliza-Jane Scott (Beverley/Annette & others), Jeff Madden (Kevin T./Garth & others), George Masswohl (Claude & others), Cory O’Brien (Oz & others), Cailin Stadnyk (u/s Janice & others), Ali Momen (Kevin J./Ali & others), Clint Butler (u/s Nick/Doug & others), Barbara Fulton (Diane & others), Kate Etienne (u/s Hannah & others), Lori Nancy Kalamanski (u/s Beulah & others), Kristen Peace (Bonnie & others), Kevin Vidal (Bob & others)

NOTES: As far as I know, the first ever video of the Toronto production! I had the entire show in VOB format ready to post but, unfortunately, I lost the USB it was on in the middle of an airport. Luckily I was able to salvage all but thirty minutes of the original footage, so all that's lost is part of the scene after "I Am Here" and a portion of "Somewhere In The Middle Of Nowhere". If you find a USB the size of a thumbnail around Pearson, it's a $5 reward! A flu passed around the cast that they were all just recovering from, and at one point you can see Bev take a tissue out of her pilot's jacket and blow her nose. It explains the large number of understudies on, particularly of interest is that of the role of Hannah being played by a Caucasian actress, which causes her absence for the bus scene and leads to a severely different dynamic I'd not seen the character played as before.

Come From Away - Washington D.C. - September 24, 2016 (SunsetBlvd79's master)

NOTES: Beautiful HD capture of the PreBroadway try out in DC. Terrific ensemble piece telling the stories of stranded passengers during the 9/11 attacks. A

NOTES: The bottom left of the video is slightly obstructed by a lighting rail. The master accidentally stop recording during '38 Planes' but realized right away so it’s only missing a second or two. Some nice close-ups. Clive misses the cue for the first “Welcome to the Rock!”

NOTES: Incomplete: starts 12 mins in. Shot around heads. The combination of the revolve and the lighting of this show might make it a jolty watch but the action is caught as best as possible. If I had to decide who to film, I chose Rachel Tucker.

NOTES: My first video ever. I couldn’t see what I was filming so the camera has a tendency to film upward toward the ceiling. You can hear me laugh pretty loudly since I was holding the camera close to my face.

NOTES: Masters Notes: Shot around 2 heads. A few dropouts that add up to about 5 minutes overall. Not the most focused capture and a lot of fidgeting from the master, but action is captured mostly well enough.

The 6 Brands of Shoes Meghan Markle Wears on Repeat

Like most fashionistas, Meghan Markle has amassed quite the collection of designer shoes, spotted at public engagements in brands like Manolo Blahnik and Stuart Weitzman. But, like sister-in-law Kate Middleton, Meghan also recycles a good amount of her heels, mixing and matching her favorites with her midi dresses. The Duchess of Sussex has her go-to pumps for special occasions (Aquazzura) and sandals or sneakers (Veja) for more laidback outings. Because she’s not afraid of a repeat-wear, it’s easy to identify the few brands she holds dear to her heart. Find out what they are, ahead, then shop styles from her favorite brands directly.

Aquazzura

Meghan always turns to Aquazzura for the important events in her life. She wore them on her wedding day, on her first royal tour, and to her first Young Leaders Awards Ceremony. The high-end Italian footwear designer makes everything from knee-high suede boots to the bow-adorned “Deneuve” pumps the Duchess of Sussex loves. She has worn the latter style several times to public events and even to weddings. Despite the steep heel height and pointed-toe fit, cushioned insoles make these velvety smooth suede shoes surprisingly comfortable.

Sarah Flint

The Duchess of Sussex started wearing Sarah Flint long before she became a royal. Meghan was spotted in flats—cute, versatile, and ladylike—from the brand in 2017, when she made her first public appearance with Prince Harry at the Invictus Games. Though we’ve yet to see her back in those very flats, this year she has worn Sarah Flint sandals and the brand’s tortoiseshell heel pumps multiple times. It appears the Duchess is on her way to owning every single style from the shoe brand.

Stuart Weitzman

You’ve seen just about every celebrity wear a pair of Stuart Weitzman heels on the red carpet. Meghan’s no different, wearing hers to charity events and around Kensington Palace. Stuart Weitzman’s open-toe heel is a popular style among Hollywood types, but Meghan prefers a pair of closed-toe pumps in beige. (Because I can’t imagine her or Kate Middleton ever flashing all ten toes in Queen Elizabeth’s presence.) She packed this everyday option with her when she embarked on her 16-day royal tour, and even brought along a pair of black boots from the label. Kate’s worn the American brand on multiple occasions, too.

Manolo Blahnik

What do Carrie Bradshaw and Meghan have in common? A mutual love for their Manolo Blahniks. The Duchess of Sussex owns the footwear label’s signature BB pump in several colors: black, gray, and beige. (The heel was first introduced in 2008 and is named after Brigitte Bardot.) It’s a classic pointy-toe pump with a wrapped stiletto heel. We have yet to see the Duchess of Sussex wear the flashier version adorned with a crystal buckle, instead sticking to plain colors and embellishment-free footwear. (Much to Carrie’s disappointment, I’m sure.)

Veja

We’ve seen Meghan wear sneakers twice since becoming the Duchess of Sussex, both times during the royal tour in October. She wore a pair of vegan kicks by Stella McCartney x Adidas and a pair of white sneakers by Veja. The French sneaker brand might not be too familiar to some, but it’s rather affordable and prides itself on creating sustainable shoes. This appears to be something Meghan cares about, as she has worn several small, ethical fashion labels, including Maggie Marilyn, Outland Denim, and Reformation. Keep an eye on the Duchess and her eco-friendly fashion choices as we head into 2019. There will be more.

Tamara Mellon

Meghan’s assortment of heels includes pairs by British designer Tamara Mellon, who has been running her eponymous footwear line since 2013. The former chief creative officer and co-founder of Jimmy Choo designs it all, from western-inspired boots to strappy sandals. The Duchess of Sussex chose the rather distinguished paramour style in April and wore the label again in October. That time, she chose a beige heel to go with her olive-colored Brandon Maxwell shirtdress.

youtube

Tin Star (Sky Atlantic)

Jim Worth (Tim Roth; Lie to Me, Reservoir Dogs) es un exdetective inglés que se ha mudado junto a su familia a una idílica comunidad rural de las Montañas Rocosas para empezar una nueva vida como jefe de la policía local. Ese pequeño pueblo comienza a ser invadido por trabajadores de una nueva refinería dirigida por Elizabeth Bradshaw (Christina Hendricks; Mad Men, Another Period) y la oleada de drogas, apuestas, prostitución y crimen organizado que les acompaña amenaza con destruirlo todo. Cuando Jim da un paso al frente, misteriosos asesinos responden con actos violentos contra su familia, y la paz de ese pueblo idílico se convierte en una prisión en la que la tranquilidad ha desaparecido. Completan el reparto Christopher Heyerdahl (Hell on Wheels), Genevieve O'Reilly (Episodes, The Honourable Woman), Abigail Lawrie (The Casual Vacancy), Oliver Coopersmith (Dickensian), Stephen Walters (Outlander), Ian Puleston-Davies (Coronation Street), Roark Critchlow (Pretty Little Liars), Sarah Podemski (Cashing In) y Kevin Hanchard (Orphan Black).

youtube

Creada por David Simon (The Wire, Treme) y George Pelecanos (The Wire, Treme). Ocho episodios. Estreno: 10 de septiembre

A favor: No trata sobre sexo, sino de humanos que sacan beneficio del sexo.

En contra: James Franco intentando marcarse un Tatiana Maslany. Y no.

youtube

The Orville (FOX)

Dos episodios. Estreno: 10 de septiembre

A favor: Grandes audiencias, supera en dos millones a la segunda temporada de Victoria.

En contra: A estas alturas no tiene sentido quejarse de episodios demasiado largos, ¿verdad?

Rellik (BBC One)

En el comienzo de Rellik ('killer' al revés), un criminal es atrapado. La serie cuenta la búsqueda del asesino, empezando por el final, hasta llegar a sus motivaciones. En el centro de la ficción se encuentran el carismático e implacable detective metropolitano Gabriel Markham (Richard Dormer; Game of Thrones, Fortitude), a quien el asesino ha marcado tanto física como mentalmente, y su intensa y brillante compañera Elaine (Jodi Balfour; Quarry, Bomb Girls). Completan el cast Rosalind Eleazar (Harlots, National Treasure), Paterson Joseph (Timeless, The Leftovers), Paul Rhys (Being Human, Da Vinci's Demons), Michael Shaeffer (Black Mirror, Rogue One) y Lærke Winther (Dicte).

youtube

Estreno: 15 de septiembre

A favor: Quiere aprovechar el tirón de los true crimes.

En contra: En resumen, es un documental sobre grafitis de penes.

youtube

Star Trek: Discovery (CBS All Access)

CBS dio luz verde directa en noviembre de 2015 a una nueva serie de Star Trek para su servicio de streaming. En febrero de 2016, Bryan Fuller (Pushing Daisies, Hannibal) fue anunciado como showrunner y productor de una historia que seguiría a la nave Discovery, aunque fue apartado del proyecto en octubre debido a los retrasos de producción. Gretchen J. Berg y Aaron Harberts, guionistas de Wonderfalls y Pushing Daisies, son los actuales showrunners y, según los productores Akiva Goldsman (Fringe, Underground) y Alex Kurtzman (Fringe, Alias), mantienen la visión de Fuller -por ejemplo, en el maquillaje y las naves de los Klingon- al haber trabajado durante mucho tiempo junto a él. La historia transcurre diez años antes de la serie original y es independiente de la saga cinematográfica actual. Protagonizan Sonequa Martin-Green (The Walking Dead, The Good Wife), Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter, The OA), James Frain (Orphan Black, Gotham), Michelle Yeoh (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; Memoirs of a Geisha), Rainn Wilson (The Office, Six Feet Under), Doug Jones (The Neighbors, The Strain), Anthony Rapp (Rent, A Beautiful Mind), Shazad Latif (Penny Dreadful), Maulik Pancholy (30 Rock, Weeds), Terry Serpico (Sneaky Pete, Army Wives), Sam Vartholomeos (The Following), Mary Wiseman, Chris Obi y Mary Chieffo. El primer episodio se emitirá en CBS y estará disponible junto al segundo en CBS All Access inmediatamente después. Netflix estrenará cada episodio semanalmente a partir del 25 de septiembre. Estreno: 24 de septiembre

A favor: Narración serializada. Una en la que los humanos también se enfrentan entre ellos.

En contra: Kurtzman, creador junto a Fuller, cree que los retrasos eran necesarios para un proyecto de esta envergadura en un servicio de pago.

youtube

Alias Grace (CBC)

Miniserie adaptación de la novela de Margaret Atwood (The Handmaid's Tale) sobre Grace Marks, la inmigrante irlandesa juzgada por asesinato en Canadá en 1843.

Tanto la novela como la adaptación televisiva han añadido a un personaje ficticio, Simon Jordan (Edward Holcroft, Wolf Hall), un joven doctor que se enamora de Grace. Completan el reparto Zachary Levi (Chuck, Heroes Reborn), David Cronenberg (Jason X, Resurrection) y Rebecca Liddiard (Between, Houdini and Doyle). Mary Harron (American Psycho) dirigirá la adaptación de Sarah Polley (Away from Her). Llegará a Netflix el 3 de noviembre, pocos días después de su emisión completa en Canadá. Seis episodios. Estreno: 25 de septiembre

A favor: Podría ser la hermana pequeña de The Handmaid's Tale.

En contra: Nos conformaríamos con que fuera la prima segunda.

youtube

Raegan Revort, Montana Jordan y Lance Barber (The Comeback, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia) interpretan a la hermana melliza, el hermano mayor y el padre del joven Sheldon. Por supuesto, escribe y produce Chuck Lorre (The Big Bang Theory, Mom, Two and a Half Men, Disjointed). Jon Favreau (Iron Man) dirige el primer episodio. Estreno: 25 de septiembre

A favor: Si es divertida, será por inercia.

En contra: Otra oportunidad para Lorre de repetir chistes.

youtube

Escribe Dan Kopelman (Galavant) y produce Aaron Kaplan (Divorce, The Neighbors).

En contra: Todavía nos suena This Is Us.

The Brave (NBC)

Antes conocida como For God and Country, y escrita por Dean Georgaris (Tristan + Isolde, The Manchurian Candidate), trata sobre militares de élite, que se juegan la vida en cada misión para llevar a cabo operaciones encubiertas tras las líneas enemigas y salvar inocentes, y su apoyo técnico desde Washington.

youtube

Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore; Bates Motel, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) es un joven médico con autismo y savantismo que deja su vida en el campo para empezar a trabajar en la unidad de cirugía de un prestigioso hospital.

Protagonizan también Antonia Thomas (Misfits), Nicholas Gonzalez (Pretty Little Liars), Chuku Modu (Game of Thrones), Beau Garrett (Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce), Hill Harper (CSI: New York, Homeland), Richard Schiff (The West Wing, Ballers) y Tamlyn Tomita (Teen Wolf, Berlin Station). Estreno: 25 de septiembre

A favor: No nos va a dar tiempo a echar de menos a Freddie Highmore.

En contra: Series sobre genios incomprendidos hay muchas. Tiene que salirse del molde.

youtube

Law & Order: True Crime - The Menendez Murders (NBC)

Antología que no guarda ninguna relación con la franquicia Law & Order y contará la historia de un juicio real en cada temporada. En la primera, la abogada Leslie Abramson (Edie Falco; The Sopranos, Nurse Jackie) defenderá a los adinerados hermanos de Beverly Hills Lyle (Miles Gaston Villanueva) y Erik Menendez (Gus Halper, Goat), que mataron a sus padres en 1989 a la edad de 21 y 18 años. Creada por Dick Wolf (Law & Order: SVU, Chicago Fire) y escrita por Rene Balcer (Law & Order). Ocho episodios. Estreno: 26 de septiembre

A favor: Una temporada más de American Crime Story.

En contra: Como Six pero seguramente peor.

youtube

El servicio de streaming de AMC ofrecerá la primera temporada completa de este drama de ciencia ficción francés y coproducirá una segunda temporada que se emitirá en 2018.

Diez episodios. Estreno: 28 de septiembre

A favor: Aborda el futuro de la humanidad y de nuestro planeta con una inesperada alegoría.

En contra: Nos estamos cargando el planeta.

youtube

Marvel's Inhumans (ABC)

La nueva serie de Marvel está protagonizada por inhumanos, una raza híbrida entre aliens y humanos cuyos miembros adquieren superpoderes tras pasar por un proceso conocido como "terrigénesis". Ya nos presentaron a los inhumanos en Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. y esta serie, que transcurre en la ciudad futurista de Attilan, está protagonizada por la familia real de estos híbridos, que huyen tras un golpe militar. Iwan Rheon (Game of Thrones, Misfits), Anson Mount (Hell on Wheels), Serinda Swan (Graceland), Ken Leung (Lost, The Night Shift), Eme Ikwuakor (Extant), Isabelle Cornish (Puberty Blues), Mike Moh (Empire) y Sonya Balmores (Soul Surfer) serán Maximus, Black Bolt, Medusa, Karnak, Gorgon, Crystal, Triton y Auran. Ocho episodios. Estreno: 29 de septiembre

A favor: Que sean ocho episodios y que los dos primeros se vayan a estrenar en cines IMAX quizá la salve del cutrerío visual que caracteriza a las series de ABC.

En contra: A SHIELD le hicieron falta 15 episodios para volverse interesante y el showrunner de Inhumans viene de Iron Fist...

Note

I know you mentioned that Faye doesnt want to experience new music without Maggie, but if there was one artist that broke Faye out of this, who would it be?

this is such an insightful question! thank you for sending it!

in this post here, I talked a little bit about what it would be like if everyone in the Dagger Squad brought an album for Faye to listen to!

but this is also something I've been chewing on for a while. I really think Faye would dig Laura Marling and she would've listened to her older/folksy stuff in college. and then when Laura Marling comes out with her album Song For Our Daughter in 2020, I think Faye would give it a listen.

I think in terms of the song that makes her think of Maggie, it would definitely be Strange Girl. I mean tell me these lyrics aren't Maggie/Faye coded:

Get all your records out and throw them all away No one left to listen to, much left, less to say Working hard and getting on, still not getting paid Stay low, keep brave

Woke up in a country who refused to hold your hand Kept falling for narcissists who insist you call them, "Man" You work late for a job you hate that's never fit the plan Stay low, keep brave

I love you, my strange girl My lonely girl My angry girl My brave

Build yourself a garden and have something to attend Cut off all relations 'cause you could not stand your friends Announced yourself a socialist to have something to defend Oh, young girl, please, don't bullshit me

I love you, my strange girl My lonely girl My angry girl My brave

You changed how you feel, it's good to break the seal And blow us both away It's changing all the time and it starts to blur the line It's supposed to keep you safe

And you row like a tidal wave And you row like a tidal wave

I love you, my strange girl My lonely girl My angry girl My brave

I think the song For You would make her think about Bradley, too. it's such a soulmate song and I just feel like she would think about him when she listens to it.

I drew pictures of you Long before I met you Just a fragment of my mind I had called out for you Almost every night Precious things are hard to find

It was just an evening Much like any else When you came into my life It takes one to know one And I saw you there As I had seen you all my life

I thank a God I've never met Never loved, never wanted (for you) I write it so I don't forget Never let it get away I wear a picture of you Just to keep you safe

Now that I have you I will not forget What a miracle you are No childish expectation Love is not the answer But the line that marks the start

I thank a God I've never met Never loved, never wanted (for you) I write it so I don't forget Never let it get away I keep a picture of you Just to keep you safe

I thank a God I've never met Never loved, never wanted I write it so I won't forget Never let it get away I keep a picture of you Just to keep you safe

I thank a God I've never met Never loved, never wanted I sing it so I won't forget Never let it get away I keep a picture of you Just to keep you safe

and I think especially after having Olive, Faye would be really attached to this album because of the title track, Song For Our Daughter.

Though they may want you to tread in their trail Only to see if the path they set fails Though they may want you to take off your clothes Whatever they think that the accent exposed With your clothes on the floor Taking advice for some old, balding bore You'll ask yourself, "Did I want this at all?"

Do you remember what I said? The book I left by your bed? The words that some survivor read?

Lately I've been thinking about our daughter growing old All of the bullshit that she might be told There's blood on the floor Maybe now you'll believe her for sure

She remembers what I said The book I left by your bed The words that some survivor read

Though they may take you for all you had left You won't be forgotten for what you had not done yet

So you wished for a kiss from God And you mourn in your childish loss Innocence gone but it's not forgot You'll get your way through it somehow

You remember what I said The book you left by your bed The words that we all have lived again

and I think even think that Only The Strong is so Bob/Faye/Maggie coded like I'm sorry, Laura Marling and I must be on the same wavelength or something bc just read these

Only the strong survive Only the strong survive Only the wrong relive their lives We've been here a thousand times

Wish I could go back and find Letters I wrote you in my mind Perhaps I could unknot us from this awful bind Most I have forgot or overrefined

Love is a sickness cured by time Love is a sickness cured by time Bruises all end up benign Love is a sickness cured by time

I hope that you can change my mind Had to leave this crying all behind I hope that you don't think that I'm unkind So somebody told me, only and only Only the strong will survive

Only the strong survive And I won't write a woman with a man on my mind Hope that didn't sound too unkind Just struggling to figure out how only, only, only, only Only the strong can survive

Hope that you can change my mind I had to leave this crying all behind I hope that you don't think that I'm unkind It's just somebody told me, only and only Only the strong can survive

anyway, I highly recommend you give it a listen! it's a fantastic album and I think it would be easy enough of an introduction for Faye. Maggie wouldn't want her to never experience new music again.

Just me thinking about Girl Dad Bradley in Landslide having 4 daughters and realizing besides 4 college funds, he should go ahead and start one massive wedding fund...that way no one feels pressured to get married but everyone will have money set aside for whatever kind of wedding they do want...this man is never gonna financially recover and he is okay with that 🤣

honestly, I've been missing Landslide so much recently! happy to talk about it! this is my invitation for ppl to send Landslide thots :,)

and I think I said in the past there were four girls....but I decided there's five bc of course when they try for baby number four, they get twin girls instead :,)

this man is literally a fucking goner bc he also never learns how to say no to any of his daughters (neither does Faye, honestly!) so t hey usually end up getting whatever they want!!

I love the point you brought up that it's just one massive wedding fund so no one feels pressured to get married! that is SO Landslide!Bradley and Faye--they would absolutely do that! they're very considerate and accepting people and they love nothing in the world more than their sweet girls! and ANY choice that they make (even if it ends up being the wrong one) is more than okay with them!

What's the age difference between the Bradshaw girls?

they're all pretty close in age!! the furthest apart is 6yrs between Olive and the twins!! so five kiddos in six years for Bradley and Faye (yes, Bradley grays early. yes, he loves his life!)

Olive Maggie (November 7th, 2021)

Joni Caroline (August 19th, 2023)

Finch Elizabeth (May 1st, 2025)

June Wylie (TWIN B January 8th, 2027)

Opal Bobbie (TWIN A January 8th, 2027)

I am reallyyyyyy picky about names btw and for the longest time, I thought June and Opal were perfect names for Bradshaw girls but I already had Olive and Joni which are O and J names....but I finally bit the bullet and I think it's cute!! little Finch is an outlier!! but that's okay :-)

btw....all the girls have nicknames

Olive is Ollie or Liv (depends on the day)

Joni is Jojo or Jo (depends on the day)

Finch is Fin or Finnie (depends on the day)

June is Nunie or Jujubee (depends on the day...again)

Opal is Opalwinfrey (Olive starts this during her Oprah era) or Bobbie (depends on the day)

𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐞 ☾☽ 𝐂𝐡. 𝐈

☾☽ 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐲 "𝐑𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫" 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐰 𝐱 𝐅𝐚𝐲𝐞 "𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫" 𝐋𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐫

☾☽ 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: It’s been almost three years since the accident that took half of her, and Faye “Clover” Ledger seems fine, really. She loves her old house, she has a perpetually expanding vinyl collection, she’s got a job she likes on base, and she is only a short drive from the beach. She’s grounded--literally. Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw feels like he’s been homesick his entire life. He’s always on the move; jumping from one squadron to another, living one mission to the next. Somewhere in between losing both his parents and carving a successful career as a Naval aviator, he’s never found himself a home. When a call to serve on a high-priority mission with an elite squadron brings Rooster back to Miramar, he finds that home. Except it’s not a house that he finds--it’s the former backseater that observes and records the mission for the Official Navy Record.

☾☽ 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭

☾☽ 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐫'𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭

☾☽ 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝟏𝟐𝐭𝐡, 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟗

Before I knock on the open office door, I look down at my skirt. It is what my mother would call a smart piece of clothing. An olive-colored linen, somewhere between midi and maxi, steamed early this morning when the morning light was still blue. I pick a piece of non-existent lint off the fabric, wasting time.

The door is solid and strong under my knuckles--the noise is a resounding one, not hollow like the door to my shared office. Everything in my office feels hollow, especially the flimsy desk they assigned to me.

“Come in,” he calls from inside.

My heels click the wood floors and even they don’t sound hollow. His office smells like leather and tobacco, like I’ve just walked into a cigar shop. It’s dark and its wood is heavy and polished, each piece of mature furniture carved meticulously. The windows, which face the tarmac, allow the late afternoon sunshine into the room. There is not a speck of dust on any of the wood.

I salute one time, straightening my back, keeping my place in the doorway.

“Admiral,” I say, short and bold--loud.

“At ease,” Admiral Simpson says softly.

The Admiral is standing with his hands fastened behind his back, his uniform crisp, his eyebrows and mouth flat on his face. He gestures to the leather chair, his blue eyes very serious, very calm. His age is stamped beside his eyes in creases.

“Please, take a seat.”

I cross his office silently and sit poised in the chair even though it sinks with my weight. I cross my legs at the ankle, hands folded in my lap.

“Lieutenant Ledger,” he greets, sinking back to his chair, his back impeccably stiff.

“Good afternoon, Admiral,” I smile.

“We’ve been over this,” he says, more casual than before, “Cyclone.”

I nod one time, never intending to call him by his call-sign.

The corner of his mouth raises, just a hint, and I know it is the most he’s smiled all day. He has a soft spot for me. I know this. He is the one that extended my bereavement leave--the one that offered me a position as a researcher. Admiral Simpson, through all his impeccable discipline and hard exterior, has done more for me the past few years.

He liked Maggie more than me, before she died. She challenged him, truly challenged him--we were always the last jet to be shot down during drills. One time, we had even gotten tone on him. It doesn’t matter now, though.

“Your research--has it been fruitful?”

I nod, clearing my throat. Admiral Simpson is briefed on my research weekly. It’s his conversational equivalent to me picking invisible lint off my skirt.

He narrows his eyes, just slightly. It makes me straighten my shoulders, which are already straight. My file is sitting on his desk, right beside a thick legal pad and a heavy-looking gold pen. It is open. I swallow hard.

“Yes,” I hum, dancing around addressing him, “yes, it has.”

He nods, just once, then sits back in his office chair. One of the windows is open and a hot gust of wind makes the blinds quiver. It touches the hair framing my face like it’s trying to get a good look at me.

“Let me be frank, Lieutenant,” he starts, “you are a gifted backseater. Navigating, weapon-system operations--it comes naturally to you. You are a gifted researcher, too. You’re precise…careful…obedient. You hold your own. You’re an excellent example of what the Navy wants--what it needs.”

My fingers curl, my blood running cold. Fuck.

“Thank you, sir.”

He pretends not to notice.

“There is an upcoming mission, one set to deploy in three weeks time. Training starts bright and early Monday morning,” he sighs, “and unfortunately, I have been backed into a corner. I have chosen Captain Pete Mitchell to lead the training for this mission.”

“Maverick?”

Maggie’s portrait hangs in Memorial Hall, where all the fallen aviators are memorialized. One day, very shortly after Maggie’s death, Maverick and I silently stood in Memorial Hall. He was on one end, studying the portrait of a Nicholas Bradshaw, call sign: Goose. I was on the other end, examining Maggie’s shit-eating grin in her fresh portrait. We said nothing to each other. We were both crying.

I wiped my wet face with an ineffective hand when Maverick started towards me. He simply clapped a hand over my shoulder, one time, very softly. Then he kept walking.

Admiral Simpson seems to stifle an eye-roll. He nods curtly.

“Maverick was not my first--or second--choice for this mission. He will be tasked with training an elite squadron--all Top Gun graduates, of course.”

He pauses, swallows, his eyes flickering to my file. My fingers are numb with cold now. Fuck.

“Si-Cyclone, if you are asking me to get back in the air, then I--” my breath catches in my throat, belly full of wool.

He holds a hand up, furrowing his brows and shaking his head.

“No, no. No one is asking you to get back up in the air. All I’m asking is that you observe and record for the Official Record,” after a beat, he adds, “and maybe keep an eye on Maverick.”

I deflate in the chair, blood starting to pool back in my fingers.

“I trust your judgment, Clover,” he remarks, “and if things were different, it is you I would want in the air.”

His eyes are soft under his furrowed brow as he searches my face. I nod a few times, eyes falling to my file then back up to his face. I smile very politely.

“You flatter me,” I say.

A bit of his seriousness fades. I think I even see his left shoulder drop a centimeter.

“Flattery is not in my nature,” he declares, leaning back into his chair, “I take it you accept your position in this mission?”

“Yes, sir.”

He nods to the door.

“Dismissed, Lieutenant Ledger,” he drones.

As I get out of the chair to walk out of his office, he pretends to write a note down on the legal pad. He does not raise his eyes to mine when he says, “And if you need anything, please do not hesitate.”

☾ ☽

The call comes as I’m walking into my house. Stevie is already sitting in the foyer, looking blankly at me with slanted eyes, her white tail wrapped gracefully around her paws. We stare at each other for a second, my leather bag slung over my shoulders and sweat dotting my hairline.

“I’ll feed you in a minute,” I whisper to her, “don’t look at me like that.”

She blinks at me, one time, very slowly. Unimpressed, as per usual.

My phone is singing in my purse--Elton John. Robert From Major Authors it reads, unchanged since my senior year of college.

Hold me closer, tiny danc--

“Hello?”

“Faye?” Bob says on the other line, his voice soft.

“Hey, Bob,” I greet, biting a smile back, “it’s good to hear from you! I really need to change your contact name.”

He laughs on the other end as I close the front door, turning the heavy lock. Stevie is as still as a statue, regarding me with an air of elitism. I set my purse beside her, fanning myself. It’s very hot in my house.

“I’m still Robert From Major Authors after everything we’ve been through? Is that all I am to you?”

I slip my loafers off, the tile in the entryway cool under my bare feet. It makes me shiver.

“Maybe it’s a subconscious thing,” I try, “what am I on your phone, then?”

I start up the stairs which open to the living room. The curtains are all drawn, shielding my precious furniture from the ruthless heat outside. It is dark in the living room with the shades drawn--I blindly reach for the wall, my eyes still adjusting from the July sun.

“The clover emoji, of course.”

I groan.

“So, I am an asshole.”

Bob laughs and it sounds very familiar, very warm. It makes the heat in my throat spread to my chest. A familiar voice is something I treasure--all the squadrons filing in and out of Miramar like it has revolving doors. No one seems to stick around for very long.

My fingers tingle as I feel my way to the kitchen door, which is one of the only rooms in the house with working air conditioning. The air fills me with an instant euphoric solace--I bite my lip to keep from moaning as the kitchen tile ices my feet.

On the notepad I hang on the fridge, I write air conditioner guy right beside dishwasher guy and lock guy.

“What are you doing right now?”

I survey my kitchen in the early evening light. It’s just past six and the sky is only just beginning to consider dimming. My kitchen is my most recent renovation and it still smells vaguely of wood shavings and metallic screws. My house is an antique one, but the previous owner’s did not regard it as an important piece of history, not like I do. When I bought the house, five years ago now, everything was painted beige and there was brown carpet covering almost all the original hardwood floors.

The house is getting better slowly, as I have time to restore. The kitchen looks more like mine now, more accurate to the decade the house was built. My copper pots and pans, which were my grandmother’s, hang above the gas stove which I opted for instead of the gaudy electric thing that used to be there. The avocado-green oven, which is original to the home, is freshly painted. The Smeg fridge, which gives me goosebumps when I remember the pricetag, is in its final resting place among the wooden cabinets. The countertops are copper, brand new, and it gleams beneath the low lighting.

I pull the fridge open, debating.

“Standing in my kitchen, basking in the window-unit air conditioning. Regretting how expensive this tiny fridge was. Thinking I’ll make curry for dinner. What about you, Bobby?”

He sighs on the other end of the line and I can practically see him sitting in a hangar somewhere, hunched over his desk, holding the phone to his ear and listening to me like it’s the only thing in the world he wants to do.

Bob is the kind of person who can only be described as good. He doesn’t interrupt, he doesn’t talk over, he looks in your eyes when you’re speaking to him. He was the only boy in our Major Authors class at Temple University. He was summoned almost two years ago.

“Well, I’m at the Hard Deck.”

I freeze.

“I’ve been called back to Top Gun.”

An elite squadron of Top Gun graduates.

I slam the fridge door shut, skittering across the kitchen to scoop a heaping mountain of cat food in Stevie’s plastic bowl. She is sitting before it now, like she knew I would succumb.

“Give me thirty minutes!”

☾ ☽

The Hard Deck looks the same as it did when Maggie used to drag me out here every chance she got. A building that oozes casual--brown wooden slatted siding, chipped white trim, palm trees sprouting in the patches of grass before it, a faded blue sign with blinking neon letters swirling the name of the bar.

There is a photograph of Maggie there, under the sign, when we were 24. The American flag is waving in the wind above her, a blur of red and white and blue, and she is mockingly saluting the camera, a pout on her lips.

The Polaroid lives there, in my wallet, in between my social security card and coffee shop gift cards. I rub the soft leather of my wallet, imagining that it’s the glossy front of the photograph.

The sun is beginning its descent, casting everything in a warm gold. The ocean glitters behind the bar, waves lazily rolling to shore and dousing the sand. Lilac clouds sporadically float across the sky, heading West with the sun.

Even from the outside, I know that the bar is crawling with Naval aviators. Not just because it always is, but because Sister Christian is pulsing--a favorite of the cocky pilots.

You're motoring / What's your price for flight? / In finding Mister Right / You'll be alright tonight

I know everyone will be talking over each other, yelling back and forth over a game of clattering pool. There will be peanut shells on the floor, empty bottles lining every flat surface.

If Maggie were here, she would be buying everyone drinks, slapping down her credit card and winking at Penny. Maggie used to corral everyone to the dance floor while I queued songs on the jukebox. People would really dance with us when we danced. Maggie was never embarrassed to dance and it made me not embarrassed to dance. I gained somewhat of a reputation as the Jukebox Queen--from the moment I walked into the bar until the moment I walked out, people would donate their quarters to me.

There is a fleeting pinch in my heart. The lump in my throat feels impossible to swallow. The warm wind blows through my hair again and I hold very still, letting it wash over me.

“It’s Friday,” I whisper to myself, “buck up.”

The rumble of an engine pulls my eyes away from the door.

A cyan colored Bronco screeches into the lot and swerves into a parking spot. The top is soft and the windows are all rolled down. The driver is blasting a song, tapping his steering wheel as he throws the car into park. It takes me a moment to place it--an Otis Redding song. Tramp. It stops very abruptly as the driver cuts the engine.

With all the swagger only a pilot could embody, the driver steps out. The first thing I see is the Hawaiian shirt. It’s somewhere between hideous and gorgeous. It is open, layered on top of a crisp tank top, a pair of dog tags between two massive pecs. Tanned skin shimmers with a sheen of sweat; probably because the jeans he’s wearing are of a good grade--thick denim. He’s smiling, pearlescent teeth glowing under a thick mustache. His hair is made up of a blonde that is as golden as the sunset. He’s wearing black aviator sunglasses.

He starts gliding towards the front door, but seems to stutter when he sees me standing near it, looking in his direction. He approaches me slower, glancing from me to the door a few times before smiling. He’s close enough so that when the wind blows, I can smell the cologne he wears. It’s peppery and deep.

“You going in?” He asks, quirking a brow.

He is still smiling, his nose thick and straight.

“Debating it,” I answer, toeing the sandy gravel.

He nods, squinting. If he was in a hurry before, he is not anymore. He puts his hands on his hips and turns towards the door so our arms are almost touching. He looks the bar up and down, studying it like I am.

“It’s been a while,” I tell him, swallowing.

“Yeah,” he sighs, “me too.”

A beat passes; somewhere in the distance, a seagull cries.

“What’s holding you back?”

What a question.

“Can’t decide if it’s intelligence,” I say, tilting my head, “or rationality.”

His laughter booms--loud enough for me to hear over the chatter inside the building. His arm brushes against mine when he laughs. His skin is warm.

“Maybe it’s a little bit of both,” he replies.

We both suck our teeth and shake our heads. The lump in my throat has dissipated without me even swallowing it. The sun kisses my lips, my chin.

“What’s holding you back?”

He sighs, shaking his head.

“A little lady who can’t make up her mind,” he says.

I scoff, shake my head. He’s watching my eyes, my face.

“People these days!”

His smile deepens. He nods to the door. He has seemingly made my mind up for me.

“Can I get that for you?”

I pretend to think about my answer--he’s looking at the side of my face, maybe at the white scar that traces the bottom of my jaw. I imagine it’s glowing under the sunset, not unlike the neon Hard Deck sign.

“Might as well,” I say, gesturing for him to walk ahead, “tramp.”

He is in front of me when I say it, but he stops again and bites a grin over his shoulder.

“What did you just call me?”

He is amused. His eyes seem very deep in his face behind his shades, framed with dark eyelashes that I can barely make out through the tint. They glimmer with enjoyment.

“Tramp,” I repeat, “Otis Redding. You were just listening to it, right?”

He nods, his face stuttering from a smile to an impressed frown back to a smile. There are scars along the left side of his face, a few crooked lines, and they glow under the sunset like I thought mine would--like neon.

“Thought my reputation preceded me,” he sighs.

In a few strides, we are at the door. He opens it wide and I step over the threshold with a careful foot.

The lump in my throat has returned as soon as I see the inside of the building. The wide-plank white pine floors are almost entirely covered with boots and heels and sneakers. What little pieces of it worm into my view are polished and dirty at the same time, like a used aluminum can. The brown rafters are entirely covered with hanging white mugs, the mugs Maneater and Jagger used to insist on drinking from every time we came to the bar. The old wooden bar, the velvet chairs, the jukebox in the corner--I absorb it all, feeling suddenly naked without Maggie holding my hand.

There is such a crowd that it overwhelms me just to think about discerning all their faces--everyone is an amalgamation of a singular face, blurring from one broad nose to another’s sculpted cheeks. And khaki--so much khaki.

Hawaiian Shirt taps my shoulder. I hope he doesn’t notice the tears clouding my vision as I turn to him. I plaster a toothy smile to my face.

“I’m sorry, did you say something?” I yell, “can’t hear you over the music!”

Sister Christian has finished and Let’s Dance has begun.

He’s looking down at me with a silly grin that makes me want to grin. He bends over so his lips are close to my ear.

“You here with anyone?” He asks.

I nod, searching the crowd.

“Meeting a friend,” I say, swallowing hard, “how about you, tramp?”

I can feel his lips bite into a smile.

“Nothing serious,” he says, “hey, I didn’t catch your name?”

I pull my eyebrows together, coming closer to his ear.

“I didn’t tell you my name,” I say.

Then I pat one of his pecs, meet his eyes again. His cheeks are dusted with pink. I salute him, then start for the bar. It smells like beer and my shoe sticks to some parts of the floor as I navigate through the sea of bodies.

Penny is behind the bar, her back facing me. She’s talking to someone with her arms crossed, a frosty mug of beer in her hands. I have to stand on my tip-toes and crane my neck to see the patron on the barstool she’s talking to. It’s Maverick--his black hair speckled with gray, the lines around his mouth pressed deep from the grin he’s sporting.

Penny turns suddenly, her face flushed, and sees me almost immediately. Her eyes widen and her grin spreads. She holds a finger up to Maverick and crosses the bar to stand before me.

“Do you know how happy I am to see your sorry face here?” She chuckles, her hands on her hips.

My cheeks redden.

“It’s been too long,” I say, “feels good to be back.”

I’m not really sure if it does feel good to be back, but I think I would say anything to make Penny smile. She used to cut Maggie’s free-drink charade at $200, handing the card back at the end of the night with a tight-lipped smile. Maggie was none-the-wiser.

“How’ve you been, kiddo? Staying alive?”

She asks this and then her shoulders slump, her hip un-cocks itself. Her smile is beginning to falter and the color drains from her cheeks. It’s what happens when people say something to me accidentally, something about death or sisters or plane crashes.

I grin, pretend like I don’t notice her sloping mouth.

“Alive and well-ish,” I say, “guess I couldn’t stay away.”

Penny recovers, smiling again. She leans her elbows on the bar and brings her face closer to mine so she doesn’t have to shout.

“I missed you, Clover. Don’t be a stranger,” she says this with all the affection of a mother, which makes a coil wrap tightly around my throat again, makes my fingers cold. Then she snaps back and tilts her head, a playful smile tugging on her lips. “Bloody Mary, right?”

I stiffen. Bloody Mary was what Maggie drank. I nod, though. Penny turns around at once and makes a very bloody Mary.

Maverick watches her from his spot, his eyes soft. When he catches my gaze, he smiles in a small way, nodding. I send him a half-hearted salute and it makes him chuckle.

“One bloody Mary,” Penny says. She nods towards the pool table. “Bob’s waiting for you. Keeps asking me to keep an eye on the door, as if I can even see it from here.”

I fight my way to the pool table, relying on muscle memory and my precision to keep my white shirt white. When I break through the crowd and see the pool table for the first time, it is a gaggle of khaki-clad aviators that greet me. I skim over their faces until I see him. Bob is lining a shot up in pool, his glasses perched on his nose, one eye winking in concentration.

I wait there for a moment, sipping my drink. Oh, God. How did Maggie drink this?

Bob makes his move--there is the clattering, not unlike the clattering of marbles colliding, and not one ball makes it into a pocket. The aviators around him are watching him with their arms crossed over their chests, all their hair combed and coiffed.

A tall blonde man claps him on the back, a hyena grin contorting his pretty face.

“Shoot,” Bob bites, blushing.

“Lieutenant Floyd,” I call over the music, leaning against the stack of chairs beside me, “you kiss your mother with that mouth?”

Bob’s head snaps to attention when he sees me standing in front of him with my putrid drink, smiling at him. His smile makes me ache. It suddenly feels like it’s been years since I’ve seen anyone familiar. I want to hug him, want to kiss him, want to take him home to my house and keep him there with me. It makes my throat tight.

Bob isn’t the only one looking at me--my declaration has captured my entire audience of aviators, who regard me with cocked eyebrows.

“No,” Bob laughs, “but I kiss your mother with this mouth.”

The blonde man’s smile is replaced with wide eyes and a lacked jaw. There’s a unanimous jolt among the aviators, each of them awe-struck and pleasantly surprised by Bob’s quip. I immediately understand that Bob hardly knows these people--that they are not really his friends like I am. They’ve never experienced his quick wit.

Bob and I are grinning at each other.

All the eyes on my face are making me hot. Perspiration is starting to gather in the pit of my arms, my legs.

Bob crosses the table quickly and wraps his arm around me. I have just enough time to jerk my drink away from us before I hug him back. He smells like a freshly-washed baby. My eyes fall shut for a fraction of a second and I rack my brain, trying to remember the last time I was hugged by a friend.

“It’s so good to see a familiar face,” I sigh, “missed you, Bobby.”

Bob releases me, holding my shoulders for a beat, searching my face for anything new. Still me, Bob! I want to say.

“I haven’t seen you since…” he trails off before shaking his head, “since too long ago, that’s when.”

“Bob, aren’t you going to introduce us to your friend?” A voice pipes from behind him.

It’s the blonde haired man, the one that clapped Bob on the back while he bit back a cocky grin. He’s grinning at me now, eyes flickering to where Bob’s hands, which are still lingering on my shoulders.

“Right,” Bob says, releasing me so I can be beheld by the entire group, “allow me to introduce Lieutenant Faye Ledger, call-sign: Clover. We went through the academy together.”

I ease over the aviators crowding the pool table with friendly eyes. Only a few women, only one of them engaged in the conversation. Her hair is sleek and dark, her expression fierce but friendly. All the men drip with ego, with the angular cheeks and cut jaws to match.

Maggie would hate how the men outnumbered the women.

“Sausagefest,” I can practically hear her spitting.

“Clover of Crimson and Clover? Twin-aviator-extraordinaires?”

A man with black, curly hair chopped short says this, his lips parted

Bob’s smile weakens. I take a long, long drink of the bloody Mary. The acidic tomato juice burns my nostrils. I nod.

“In the flesh,” I say, “half, anyway.”

Bob sniffles a smile.

“That’s Hangman,” Bob introduces, pointing to the blonde man with his arms crossed, “and beside him we have Phoenix, Fanboy, Payback, Coyote, and Rooster.”

I follow his fingers, trying hard to nail the names to faces. When Bob’s finger lands on Rooster, I almost stumble in place. It’s Hawaiian Shirt. He’s beaming at me, a foggy beer bottle in his fist. His head is slightly tilted back--his Adam’s apple is pronounced and glistening with sweat.

“Lieutenant Ledger,” Rooster says, “didn’t take you for a pilot. You know, with the indecisiveness and all.”

I sigh, shifting my weight from one foot to the other, tilting my head.

“Sister was the stick jockey. I was just the backseater.”

“One of the best backseaters,” Hangman adds, “everyone’s heard the stories.”

Hangman has his arms crossed and he’s regarding me with his eyebrows knit, his mouth slightly ajar. Maybe he’s surprised that I’m not in uniform, or maybe he’s surprised that half of me is missing. I’m never sure how much anyone knows about Maggie.

I am flushed, but I’m not sure if it’s the sudden attention or if it’s the heat radiating off the sea of bodies all around us. Maybe it’s the vodka. Penny makes a strong drink.

“Impossible,” I say, “not when Bob’s still kicking it. Right, Bobby?”

Bob laughs and it makes me think of Maggie, the way she would make Bob clutch his belly when she did cartwheels all the way to the Uber after close. Or when she would do her Elvis impression, feet bare as she planted herself before him, heels long since forgotten as they were toted around by whatever uniform she was going home with.

I gulp the rest of my drink. My throat vibrates.

“What are you drinking?”

It’s Rooster that asks, striding towards me. I shrug, looking up at him. The sunset has given in to dusk and the warm bulbs above his head turn his hair a brighter blonde than I saw outside. Up close, his scars seem more pronounced, like unnatural wrinkles. He’s still wearing his sunglasses.

“Whatever Penny makes me,” I shrug.

He starts for the bar, but I suddenly tug on his Hawaiian shirt. He turns around, eyebrow quirked.

“Not another one of those,” I whisper, grimacing.

He nods, saluting with his free hand.

“Understood, ma’am.”

He disappears in the crowd.

I turn to Bob.

“What brings you back?”

Bob shrugs, biting his lip. His glasses are perched higher up now that he isn’t focusing on a pool ball.

“All of us were called back for the same assignment. Not sure what it is yet, but seems pretty serious. Everyone dressed in khaki here,” he points around the bar, “top of their class, or damn-near close. Best of the best here.”

I consider telling Bob what Admiral Simpson told me, but I keep my mouth closed, pulling my brows together.

“Must be pretty crucial.”

Bob nods, raising his eyebrows before taking a swig of his beer. He licks his pointed lips then shrugs.

“That’s what we’ve gathered--!”

“Clover,” Hangman interrupts, “you game?”

He points to the pool table. Hangman’s eyes are on mine and the intensity of his gaze feels like standing in front of a fireplace. Phoenix is looking at Bob with wide eyes, nodding for him to play covertly.

I shake my head.

“Not very good,” I call, “these hands aren’t what they used to be.”

“Can’t be any worse than Bob here,” he grins.

His jaw is so toned--it looks like he chews a pack of gum a day.

“Play nice,” Phoenix commands, “rack ‘em, Bagman.”

I nod to the pool table when Bob catches my eyes again. His cheeks are red.

“Give ‘em Hell,” I whisper.

Rooster returns as Bob re-engages with the group. He hands me a wet glass full of something purple and girly. I smile down at it. It’s a lavender limeade with tequila. Penny realized her mistake.

“Thanks,” I call, softly bumping him with my elbow.

Rooster stays put beside me, still smiling, a few drops of sweat racing down his neck and onto his collar. His elbow is touching my bicep.

“Didn’t know you were the Clover Ledger,” Rooster admits, “could’ve told me that before I called you a little lady.”

I suck in a breath through my teeth, taking a long sip from my drink. The tequila instantly warms my throat, loosens my limbs.

“Where’s the fun in that, lieutenant?”

He laughs.

After a beat, I add, “I knew you were a pilot the moment I saw you.”

Rooster looks down at me, searching my face with a bemused expression.

“Oh, yeah? How’s that?”

“The swagger gave it away,” I answer, “the Bronco, the sunglasses, the song, the shirt.”

Rooster holds his hand up in offense.

“What’s wrong with the shirt?”

I shake my head, innocently shrugging.

“No, no, I like it,” I declare, meeting his tinted eyes, “really brings out your eyes.”

Behind his sunglasses, his eyes glimmer. He likes to be teased.

I gulp the limeade. My toes start to feel fuzzy.

“You here for the mission?”

He rests part of his weight on my arm. The heaviness of his arm makes a certain warmth pool in the pit of my belly.

“My mission is to observe and record,” I say, straightening my shoulders and squaring my jaw to imitate Cyclone, “for the Official Navy Record.”

Rooster whistles, feigning impression.

“How can you live with the pressure of it all?”

I shrug, stirring my drink with my finger before sucking it clean. He’s watching me, a perpetual grin tickling his mouth.

“I’m an alcoholic,” I retort.

Rooster laughs loudly--the same laugh from outside. Phoenix and Bob glance up at us from the pool table, quiet smiles on their lips. Bob glances at Rooster, then flickers his gaze back to me, narrowing his eyes just slightly while nodding. He’s saying oh, yeah. He’s a good one. I’d almost forgotten about that secret language we share; the secret language of old friends.

“So…you’re sitting this one out because it’s below your paygrade, then?”

I blink up at him. He cocks his head.

“You’re the best of the best,” he remarks, “isn’t this mission for the best of the best?”

My belly turns sour. I finish my drink again, setting my glass on the stack of chairs. I wipe my damp palms on my dress, studying the floral print as I chew my bottom lip. I can feel my cheeks gathering redness, can feel the lump growing again. Rooster watches me think.

“Aren’t you a cocky creature,” I tease, “is that what all this Rooster business is about?”

Just as I return his gaze, just as I recognize how fuzzy and warm I feel, there’s a tap on my shoulder. Rooster and I turn at the same time.

It’s a man a few years older than me, dressed in a khaki uniform. He’s smiling like he knows me, and leaning closer to say something to me.

“You’re Clover, right? Not the other one?”

Not the other one. I nod.

“I think so,” I say, pretending like I can’t see Rooster beaming.

“This is for you,” he shouts, holding his closed fist in the air near my face.

I lay my hand flat in the air, palm-up. He drops three shiny quarters in it.

“Oh,” I say, feeling flustered, “oh no, that’s okay, you shouldn’t--!”

The man is already walking away, immersing himself in the crowd. I stare down at my open palm, the quarters ringing as I force them against each other.

“What was that about?” Rooster asks, gingerly picking a quarter up and studying it.

I close my fist and let it fall to my side.

It doesn’t seem possible without Maggie wrangling everyone in, doesn’t seem possible to pick the right songs and dance without being embarrassed.

“Secret’s out,” I sigh, “I’m also a hooker. A bad one.”

He bites a grin. I hold a finger up to him.

“I’ll be right back.”

I muscle through the crowd with my hand still closed around the quarters. As soon as I make it to the bar, Penny meets me, like she was waiting for me.

“In need of some serious liquid courage,” I tell her, “two shots of tequila?”

Penny nods, not asking any questions. After she pours the shots and hands me a lime, she glances over her shoulder at Maverick. He is on his phone and I almost warn him, but it’s too late--he sets it on the bar.

Penny rings the bell with a smirk. The bar erupts in cheers, a few men clapping Maverick’s shoulders. Penny points to the sign and before I can chicken out, I bottom out the first shot glass and suck the lime. Maverick sits at his seat with a look of disbelief, mouth slightly ajar.

“Did you know about this?” He yells to me.

I grin something fierce, hold my shot glass up to him.

“Cheers, captain!” I bottom the other shot, grimacing.

The sour lime cuts the tang of the tequila. My belly sloshes with liquid.

“Penny, my dear,” Hangman sings, “I’ll have four more on the old-timer.”

Hangman is standing behind me, his scent strong. He smells like the outdoors, if the outdoors was freshly polished and sanitized.

“Why do they call you Hangman?”

Hangman registers my presence and smiles down at me in the way men do when they see something they like. He leans against the bar, looking at me, my empty shot glasses.

“Long story. They call you Clover cause you’re lucky?”

Lucky. I almost laugh in his face. Blood rushes to my ears.

I’m too drunk to feel upset, to feel angry. My lips never lose their smile.

“You know, I actually read a Cornish legend about clover,” I say, leaning towards him, “a young maid put a fistful of clover on her head to alleviate the pain of carrying a heavy pail of milk and got instant relief. Not only that, but she could suddenly see dozens of fairies and elves all around her.”

Hangman considers my story, cheeks dimpled.

“So, if I put you on my head, I’ll be able to see fairies?”

I shrug, blushing.

“I guess we’ll never know.”

Penny hands the beer to Hangman and glances at me. I can hear my own heart hammering in my chest. Hangman turns around to rejoin the group, but first sends a wink my way.

“Maggie would have ate him alive,” I laugh.

Penny doesn’t laugh--just smiles sadly. The pit in my belly grows. She touches my hand softly, squeezing it. I wonder how much Penny knows. After Maggie, I came to The Hard Deck rarely--first opting for a harsher scene, then no scene at all. Maybe Penny still feels fresh about Maggie.

“I think I’m drunk,” I tell her, waving myself off, “I should close out my tab.”

“Rooster put your drinks on his,” she waggles her eyebrows.

Just as I muscle my way back to the group, Penny rings the bell. More cheers erupt from the crowd and Hangman and Payback trample to the bar with ornery grins splitting their faces.

Bob is still in the middle of a game of pool, chatting with Phoenix. Rooster has disappeared. I sink into the stack of chairs, not bothering to turn around and crane to see what’s happening over the bobbing heads of the bar-goers. Everyone is chanting the same thing and I strain to understand it.

Overboard! Overboard!

Suddenly, the jukebox blinks off. A chorus of groans echo. I drop the quarters into my dress pocket.

Somebody starts to play the piano--I’ve never seen anybody play the piano here. Phoenix grins across the room and I follow her eyes. Rooster is sitting on the piano bench, fingers working the keys effortlessly, beautifully.

“C’mon, guys,” she says, giddy.

Bob glances at me and I wave him off, giving him my best I’m totally okay smile. I am alone by the pool table. It still smells overwhelmingly like beer. My chest is growing warmer and heavier by the minute, my cheeks a deep read. Crimson.

“You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain,” Rooster croons.

His voice cuts through the bar like a pair of heavy scissors. The patrons are all starting to flock towards Rooster, who is basking in the attention, smirking.

“Too much love drives a man insane! You broke my will, but what a thrill!”

The pool table is abandoned. I think of all the times Maggie slinked around the table, putting on her best pout, waiting for someone to let her in the game. She would play the first round or so cluelessly, letting men put their arms around her to help her shoot. It wasn’t until there was money put down that she revealed her talent. Maggie was good at everything.

“Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!”

Other people are singing with Rooster now.

I make my great escape, stepping on cracked peanut shells and cocktail stirrers as I cross the bar. Not one person is watching me, not even Penny.

The night is warm outside. Without the competing conversations and booming jukebox, I can just barely hear the ocean. Salt prickles my tongue, the air holding me close.

I sit there, under a palm tree, looking up at the star-dotted sky. Something metal clatters beside me. It’s one of the quarters. It shimmers under the moon and I bring it close to my eyes, squinting to see the date.

1992.

I whimper softly, eyebrows pulled together. There is no evading the lump in my throat--no Rooster to dissipate it, no friendly face out here in the lot. My tears are hot on my cheeks as they race down my face.

With quivering lips, I bring the quarter to my mouth and press a kiss to it.

“Hi, Maggie,” I whisper.
