Steadfast Like the Sea

[detectiveriley]

Name: Raven Whitecastle
Genres: Fairy tale/fantasy but simultaneously pretty canon compliant
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: Memory loss?
Story summary: The last thing Harold remembers is blue. When Harold wakes up in triage after the orchestrated hit on his friend Nathan, Harold has to leave his life, friend, and fiance behind. The only thing he takes with him is the memory of blue. But starting over isn't easy, and something keeps calling Harold back to the sea. That's where he meets John, all golden skin and blue and gold scales.
Type of help you would like: Seeking troubleshooting for multiple chapters, help with flow of storytelling, and chapter transitions.
Anything else: The whole body of the story is finished, there are just a few things that I need assistance with polishing, like chapters that feel weighed down with exposition or internal monologue that could probably be presented better.
