Oh, then I take it back! You may keep the sailing trips, I wouldn't want to deprive you of those! But I am looking forward to the story. And I will try very hard to be patient.
Of course the premise would ride on a bunch of improbabilities -- that was all but inherent to the prompt. In fact, the prompt was half-inspired by watching the contrivances people went through in this fandom to end up one bed short. (And not just one bed short, but that the captain and the first lieutenant, OF ALL PEOPLE, should be the ones inconvenienced by it!) But who cares about contrivances, really? The point is what-all happens after they end up one bed short, and what you've teased here makes me very eager to know the rest. :-D
