RE: Day 831: 5 Minute Freewrite CONTINUATION: Wednesday - Prompt: brussel sprouts
I won't comment on Captain Lee's chapter today because I'm too tired. But I was surprised by the Captain's gluttony, an interesting aspect of such a great character. Greetings @deeanndmathews
His eating is uneven when he gets too stressed ... the whole weekend has been a mess in that respect! He had too little that morning, and thus compensated at lunch ... and if you read the next two freewrites, you may notice that he gets so focused on his task that he does not have dinner (and, because Mrs. Thornton doesn't know it, she can't fix it!).
A running theme since Captain Lee emerges as a supporting character way back in July in Black, White, and RED All Over here on Steemit and later on Amazon: he has the figure of excellent health, but he is constantly menaced by the way his internal struggles affect his eating and sleeping. I drop hints here and there, and you caught one ...
Captain Lee takes me heads. He is a character with many edges and one begins to enjoy his audacity or occurrence according to the context in which it appears
Thank you; I appreciate your reading ...
