Rock and Tempest, Fire and Foe

Posted on 2008.10.21 at 10:44
TITLE: Rock and Tempest, Fire and Foe

AUTHOR: Idler
CHARACTERS: Bush
RATING: G
DISCLAIMER: Not mine, not for profit
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I've had this hanging around and gathering dust for a while now; given the day, I thought I'd go ahead and post it. It's actually the prologue for a much longer--and still largely unfinished--project.

Casting Loose

TITLE: Casting Loose

AUTHOR: Idler
CHARACTERS: Bush
RATING: G
DISCLAIMER: Not mine, not for profit
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Book canon, set in the (American) final chapter of Commodore Hornblower. Many thanks to my beta readers: [info]black_hound, who made sure I didn't commit any howlers in sail-handling, and Quarterdeck, who always keeps me honest.

A drabble. Inspired by a recent piece of [info]black_hound's incomparable artwork, reproduced here--with her kind permission--behind the cut. So much is expressed in this single compelling image, and I've attempted to capture some small part of it in these 100 words:

Once Burned

Posted on 2006.03.04 at 11:08
More archiving....

This one is pretty old, first posted in 1/03 to hhfic. It was written prior to the airing of HH3, and was my attempt to use the events of HH2 to explain a transition between the HH2 version of Hornblower to a character more consistent with book canon.

HH3 clearly proved that I was definitely not on the same page as the filmmakers!

This version is tweaked a bit from that originally posted; it uses a slightly alternate--though MY favorite--ending.

Oh....and, as always: PG, Gen
