Note from the Editor:
Hope you've all had a good week! Welcome to our newest contributor,
nautacarus, who has brought a couple of Hornblower fics for us. I would also like to remind you that if you have a fic or a vid - or even some screencaps or icons - that you wish to have included in the Rec of the Week slot, all you have to do is to post a comment including a link. The Rec of the Week is not limited to items hosted here on DW, and can include anything you would like to share with the wider fandom.
Fanfic:
These Old Shadesby
esteven; Aubreyad; PG; Jack, Stephen; If Jack and Cochrane ever met, the universe might implode?
A Peacetime Manoeuvre by
nautacarus; Hornblower; G; Hornblower/Pellew (or none, depending on how you look at it); Hornblower’s lips pursed in concentration as his target came into range.
Nostalgia by
nautacarus; Hornblower; R; Bush/Hornblower; Bush was used to watching Hornbower, but he was not used to Hornblower watching him.
Curiosity by
latin_cat; Aubreyad; 18 (NC-17); Pullings/Marshall (unrequited); om Pullings, Master’s mate of the Sophie, wonders about William Marshall. Set just pre-Aubreyad.
Son et Lumière:
Of historical interest:
austenblog tells us that The Watsons sells for nearly a million pounds
Miscellany and meta:
vanilla_elf tells us about the new releases from Seaforth Publishing
Communities and challenges:
mandc_read will be reading The Commodore this week
Rec of the Week:
This week's rec is a fic that was featured a few issues ago: Of the Identification of Weeds by
feroxargentea; Aubreyad; G; Stephen Maturin and the Aubrey family; He watched the crouching infant lean forward, further and still further, until it fell face-first onto the soft ground, bewildered but undaunted (Spoilery for The Mauritius Command, but supposes that campaign had a different outcome.)
