Rec of the Week: Unusually for this slot, this issue's rec is for a piece of artwork. Recommended by latin_cat, it's from the Theban Band website, and is very NSFW. You have been warned!! Hornblower/Bush

It would be nice if you included the read, even when I have not announced it. This weekend it was chapter eight of The Commodore

Oh agh. I am failboat. *THUD!* (Sounds of Sharpie headdesking.)

*pushes pillow your way*

The Commodore has two more chapters before it finishes.

The next book Yellow Admiral will only be at LJ, and then I will take over again with The Hundred Days
