Note from the Editor: Well, this week's been a bit of a washout weather-wise - I am starting to wonder whether it might not be a good idea to invest in a rowing boat, just in case. Although, thankfully, we haven't had the floods here that other parts of the country have had to deal with. I hope that everyone is OK and you're not suffering too much from the recent weird and wonderful weather.

This week's rec is courtesy of
heather_mist, who wanted to rec Waiting by
isis; Aubreyad; 18; Jack/Stephen; Jack waits for a ship, and Stephen waits for Jack. (I have a confession to make;
heather_mist provided me with a link to the fic here on DW, but it was in a long comment conversation which meant I promptly lost it again, hence my linking to the story on the AO3. - Ed.)
