Night Cole π
🕑 Added 2020-08-18 12:52:43 +0000 UTCπ Poor Coleβs having a bit of an uncomfortable night... Iβll have to start being nicer to him in Phase 2 π
I might not be going through quite the same emotional turmoil as our blonde bombshell, but this pic still reflects my night... Yesterday we went for a long walk along the Fife coast - an absolutely beautiful landscape that I took absolutely no pictures of (silly RanliLabz).
We started on the nearest beach, hopping between the jutting rocks and shallow rockpools until we found ourself on a second stretch of small round pebbles. Those grew in size until we were sliding around a field of fist sized, peach coloured boulders... which themselves abruptly stopped to become a fine, gritty sand. Just when I thought Fife had no more variants of beach to offer us, we stepped onto a gorgeous expanse of intact, bone white shells that left me feeling a bit guilty for walking over. π
As the beach petered out into sea, we climbed some very steep stairs some ancient fishermen or shepherds must have carefully cut into the rocks. Those took us to the top of the low cliffs, and their panoramic view of the North Sea - iron grey and a little rough, an island rising from the mist-topped waves and the tiny blinking lights of oil-rigs far out to sea. It was drizzling a little by then, but the fine spray was pleasantly cool and refreshing after a long walk, and our destination was only a couple of klicks along the sea front... the even smaller town of Crail.
A pit stop in Crail for some urgently needed caffeine in a friendly little pub, and we began the return. This time we went inland - for I never retrace the same route twice! The landscape is relatively flat for Scotland, though you can still see the hills begin to rise in the distance - a foretelling of the mountains lying far to the north. The fields are the deep, mossy green of a rainy land - fertile meadows for the clumps of sheep that brave the drizzle to chew cud and stare curiously at passing walkers. The occasional farmstead rises and falls - low roofed and whitewashed, surrounded by the messy outbuildings and equipment of a working farm.
Most of the way back is simple - footpaths through the fields or wide grass verges. Only occasionally are we forced to walk on the narrow, hairpin-bend country roads... praying that the next driver to round the corner didnβt have an extra whisky with breakfast π₯ As we return to our temporary home in Cellardyke, google helpfully tells us the entIre trip was only 10k.... Alarmingly unfit from 6 months of lockdown, Iβd imagined double that! When my marathon-running companion suggests pressing on in the other direction, I gasp in winded horror before mumbling something about needing to send some messages, best to get back. They are kind enough not to press the issue π
Anyway, that was a very long-winded - but hopefully rather picturesque - way of saying that my feet hurt π Another sleep pic tomorrow... I wonder which of the three remaining cadets will fit the mood!

He is that (well, when he's not being mean π)

Cole is cute, as usual.
Sebastian
Perhaps - but he was still a bully prior to that. Either way, I'm on Team Sam, so Cole's little more than a distraction!
RanliLabz
Well, it may not make you forgive, but you might not hate him as much... heβs been through a lot in the last year π
RanliLabz
A little rough perhaps... but I can see him being a little tender after (the post coital mask slip π·)
Sebastian
I struggle to forgive a bully at the best of times. It would have to be one hell of a backstory!
Spencer1981
Just seems, small or not, he'd put a lot of fuck energy and tongue into it :)
RanliLabz
ππ§
RanliLabz
π Fair enough... youβll be able to keep him at arms length (or even be quite cruel!) Iβd wait to find out his backstory before making a final call on that though π
RanliLabz
It seems to be a popular desire π
Azure
Would love to see that as well.
Ryan Fox
No π
Sebastian
Cole's a dick with a lot of shortcummings - okay, I'll stop there - but I hope he eventually finds a way to redeem himself. Although I reserve the right to never actually like him.
Nathanael Dugourd
well, i'm weird too, can't wait for the next update ;)
Spencer1981
Is it weird that I want the mc to be topped by cole
Sentimental Penguin
We are a cold and harsh people. :P
Ryan Fox
Ouch Penguin the Unforgiving π€£
RanliLabz
π Lol... yes, Iβm starting to feel guilty. I think thereβs only one more built in βmeanβ update with Cole and then you should be able to start shaping the relationship more significantly π
Azure
Don't be so mean to cole q.q
RanliLabz
Haha - well, redemption for Cole will be in your hands π naughty or nice? You decide!
RanliLabz
π Weβll have to cheer him up.π Cheers pilgrim!
RanliLabz
Thanks Pent! Still suffering from it π
RanliLabz
It has been pretty relaxing - Iβm not sure I fully realised how much I needed a holiday! π Itβs also so much cooler than the heatwave weβd been having down south before I left... like a pleasant piece of autumn to break up the summer! π
RanliLabz
Thanks remy! Lol, I think I know who itβs going to be tomorrow on the basis of the day so far - but thereβs still the evening to go!
Sentimental Penguin
Sounds like a great trip, and almost makes me wish I could go out again. Also ah, Cole. I'd feel bad about you, but you've deserved everything that's happened to you so far. :P
Pilgrim
Oh, poor Cole, he is crying, hope he will find comfort soon! - Your trips sounds very nice, I have similar strategy when walking in mountains. Enjoy and send us some photo :-)
Pentasphere
Sounds like an absolutely amazing walk! I'm jealous. :) Keep enjoying your vacation! You definitely deserve it!
Ryan Fox
Aw Cole, donβt feel bad. MC will even bunk with you, spoon or no spoon, your call. Think of how freakin awesome youβll look in that SecuriCorps uniform! Basic is always a mindfuck, once you get past the first few weeks it starts to ease up a bit....sort of. But hey when youβre done and a newly minted Ensign....are you gunna have fun with all the new recruits mwahaha π Such prose Ranli! It sounds like you are having fun though, hurt feet aside, and regardless lack of photographic evidence π Hopefully the trip overall is relaxing...ignoring the end-of-day fatigue.
rogueremy
It sounds like you're having a fun and eventful trip! Hopefully you return feeling invigorated and refreshed! Aww is Cole crying? :( I do find myself feeling more and more bad for him... Also on a side note, so far I have correctly guessed the order for these night pics, but I am a bit stumped for who will be next... Hmm...
