shipwrecks
Mar. 11th, 2015 10:41 amI have found Age-of-Sail!Ralph's ship. The Doddington, which was wrecked in 1755. Now I just have to figure out whether I want him to have missed that memorable third voyage or to have spent seven months on Bird Island.
Thus:

It's all very exciting.
ETA: No, of course he must be on the third voyage. Hero status, vast PTSD, not as handy as [he] used to be, excuse bad pun. Also he can come back and pitch up at Alec's *and* it gives Alec/Sandy time to have happened, since I figure the gap between the second and third voyage (nearly a year) Ralph's really getting domestic with Alec and trying to find an onshore-job. It doesn't work out, they break it off and Ralph sails off, Sandy and Alec cosy up to each other (Sandy having just arrived and they having known each other previously), and a few months into that (3-4) Ralph shows up again. ooof.
