Summary
Tomorrow morning, the sun will dawn upon the White Whale’s inexorable spout, his hump like a snow-hill, and for the next three days Ahab will chase that haunted whale across the horizon till one of them spouts black blood, and all will collapse, and the great shroud of the sea will roll on as it rolled five thousand years ago. This is how it goes.
But perhaps not this time. Perhaps...Or: Ahab, choosing to live.
//
This fic is a look at what it would take to convince Ahab to abandon his chase, to finally turn around, to save himself and his crew and choose life instead. It picks up immediately after The Symphony, goes through all three days of the chase, and then continues on after. It is a fix-it fic, and a Mostly everyone lives AU, but keeps one very significant, canon-compliant death from the book's second day of the chase.Series
