I really liked Honor's financial advisor, Willard Neufsteiler. Besides being brilliant, I loved his sense of humor.

Captain Molly DeLaney, Lester Tourville's Chief of Staff.

She Wants those MAligment bastiches nearly as bad as Honor does. And for some reason, she just strikes as being a basically decent character.

I could live with that. Albeit I had Geneviene Chin paired with Admiral Higgins.

Dear dog, she has me doing it AGAIN! :o 8-)

Admirals Chin and Higgins would be an interesting meeting. They'd each be terribly, terribly afraid that the other would be about to inflict some sort of naval disaster on them. :)

Oh my. I'm in the holiday spirit and all extra mushy and you just had to go and mention Ronnie. Oh my Ronnie. I so loved her. And I would have married her too, I would've. I just love her to pieces. I do. I simply do says I. 'sigh'

Now for my wet two cents ...


I adore the little sweet minx that handled the calvarous wormhole transit of Honor Harrington's elements to save the Home System in the Battle of Manticore.

Very loose paraphrase "Great Caesars ghost! WTH! Boys and girls, we're gonna be havin' lots o' company. Lots!"

That little lass should have gotten some sort of medal herself, for her own little courage under fire. At least extraordinary mention.

So, raise your glasses me fellow Honorites, here's to her.

klink klink klink ...

Yes! That's her! Thanks Rose.

I suppose we could say Stephania was in a Grimm mood.
Or perhaps she was transiting the Grimm reaper herself, Honor.
Perhaps, also in uniform, were her brothers Grimm?

Excuse me Peeps, things are beginning to spin and look a bit grimm to me. Need to lay off the sauce. House full of company, and belly full of brandy and eggnog.

Karaoke all night long. And all the girls want to do Taylor Swift.

I'll never get Blank Space out of my head.

I had completely forgotten about her. But I remember her colleague Michel Reynaud of course.

Don't know if MacGuiness is a minor character, but he's a favorite.

It would be nice if he had a love interest, to do another type cooking. He's earned it.

MacGuiness' mistress Mistress Thorn has a ring tone.

I'm sorry, but Ansten Fitzgerald, and many of the others on Hexapuma dies when the ship was destroyed during Oyster Bay. Aikawa was on leave and survived, and of course Paulo and Ginger were among those evacuated during hte Weyland drill, and so survived, but Hexapuma was destroyed with all hands.


Hi falls fromtrees,

Just wanted to comment here... Aubrey Wanderman was on Weyland assigned to fabrication when OB rolled in. Therefore he would have been evacuated as part of the exercise and would have survived.

Don,

I had taken that as a given since he was the primary subject of this section of posts. I just wanted to point out that most of the Hexapuma people had died witht he ship during OB.
