Crop, edit, add text, remove text, use as a base or whatever. Comments are nice, credit is even better, but neither are necessary. I had a little explosion of icon-making itchines, but these are a little too processed for me right now, so it's like. Hey! Spamtastic Saturday!























Screencaps from MoonJaguar, Two Evil Monks, and my own collection. Textures from luthien_black and gender, as well as of the sky.

*sings the happy Bush and Kennedy deatbed conversatioooonnnn angst song* :D

[iansmomesq.livejournal.com]

Kingston + Sheerness + Boy!Bush = Oh, my! Lovelies!!!

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

*laughing* Is there a boy!Bush icon? I didn't intend there to be, but I wa smaking mot of these at 3:30 in the morning.

[iansmomesq.livejournal.com]

*snork* OMG!! I totally thought the little boy in hose and buckle shoes that says "waiting" was boy!Bush!!!!

it's cute nonetheless.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

AHAHAH <3333333333333 It is HH waiting for his lieutenant's exam, thougha;ldkjfg the notion of baby!Bush in breeche and stockings. OMG.

[black-hound.livejournal.com]

I thought the same thing as iansmomesq. That you intended the hose and buckled shoes icon to be boy!Bush.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

*DIES*

It doe smake a lot of sense as little baby Bush, I suppose. Imagining him as a little baby midshipman? *____*

Snagging the skulls and the man in the decorated hat.

the skulls = pyramid of skulls that HH vows to raise in memorial to his "friend" XD

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

Ahaha. It's Prowse, the master's mate that Hornblower has on the Hotspur with the lugubrious face like a mule, as Forester puts it, though uh.

I realize that means just about nothing to you. I appreciate the fact that you're even still reading this LJ now that men in funny decorated hats have completely

Re: the skulls = pyramid of skulls that HH vows to raise in memorial to his "friend" XD

[modillian.livejournal.com]

have completely stolen all your words.

:D

It's still fun in here, in my opinion. Everyone needs icons with skulls, frowny old guys, and men in tights men in stockings.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

jdflkjg I hate my brain and retarded fingers. My brain really did go. :D

And mmmmmm. Frowny old men. If you ever want stuff about HH, tell me, and I can hook you up. *makes desperate face at the smart people*

[karabou.livejournal.com]

These are lovely! :)

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

<3333 And so are you, baby.

[the-cop.livejournal.com]

*blushes and toes the floor*

By the way, a girl on my flist put up some HH caps if you are interested: http://selluinlaer.livejournal.com/296999.html

:D

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

*pretends that Ray K. is wearing a Yankees jersey* And thank you. :D More screencaps = teh yay.

[karabou.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, unfortunately it is a small town baseball team.

Although there is one instance where he and Turnbull almost get into a sports-related brawl that proves that Ray does at least like baseball...

TV commentator: The Canadian team has one in the four-foot and is going to play the guard...
Ray: Anything that moves that slowly is not a sport.
Turnbull: Not a sport...
Ray: This is not a sport, it's housework.
Turnbull: It is a calling.
Ray: It may be a pastime, it may even be a hobby, but it is definitely not a sport.
Turnbull: Do you want to fight? *puts up his fists*
Ray: Over curling?
Turnbull: Yes. What if I made fun of baseball?
Ray: ...All right. *gets into fighting stance*

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

*used to have an icon of that exact same screencap and <3*

You have an Aaaaaaaarchie and Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuusssssh iconnn. And look how cuuuuuuuute they are giggling at each other, and lookit Bush being all flirty. :D

[karabou.livejournal.com]

The Bush and Archie are so darling and fantastic in TBS, I totally ship them.

ALSO. I AM HAVING A MINOR HEARTATTACK B/C OF THE SCREENCAPS SARAH JUST SHOWED ME OMG.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

Dude. Yeah. Paul McGann is heartbreakingly beautiful -- he has the mot perfect profile and a mouth made for sin and these gorgeous blue eyes, and you aren't even hearing his voice. I swear to God, he has the hottest voice I've ever HEARD, Kara.

Have you seen more HH? HAVE YOU SEEN MORE OF IT? HAVE YOU HEARD HIS GUNDECK BELLOW AND HIS GIGGLE?

[karabou.livejournal.com]

I've still only seen The Duel. TWICE. Someday I will actually get to some Bush episodes...

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

*DKjg;lakdjf;lwiehrlfjsdgjaer YOUR BOYFRIEND IS AN EVIL HORRID PERSON? HOW DARE HE, OUT OF NOTHING BUT PURE SELFISHNESS, KEEP YOU FROM THE WONDERS OF BUSH TALKING ABOUT HOW HE HATES TURNIPS AND TEASING HORNBLOWER ABOUT HI FEAR OF HEIGHTS AN :DKLJG:LDKJf.

[karabou.livejournal.com]

LOL! Will doesn't even want to watch it now!! So I watched The Duel with Melissa last night.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

1. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HIM
2. LEAVE HIM; HE DOES NOT DESERVE YOU. WE WILL RUN AWAY TO CANANDA AND GET A CIVIL UNION
3. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HIM
4. WATCH MORE EPISODES SOON, BABY; I CAN DRIVE OVER TO YOUR PLACE OR YOU CAN COME OVER AND WATCH THEM AND IDGKDJF:LIWHR:LKDJ.
5. AND THEN WE WILL DRIVE TO CANADA AND GET MARRIED.

Ragefree postscript I love your animated batsie icons. <3

[the-cop.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha... you are hilarious. XD

I don't know what's going on re: the whole job thing b/c I need to go in sometime for a second interview and I have no idea when I'm going to start or what days I'll be working, but, what's your Friday like for this next week? We could watch em at my house or something if you're free?

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

Alas, baby, I'm going to be out of town. We're flying out at ass AM on Wednesday and won't be back until Monday.

[the-cop.livejournal.com]

I thought that was this past week/end! *ties you down*

WELL. SOMEDAY.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

Someday, baby. Someday.

Actually. I know that your hours aren't yet, but do we want to make a tentative plan for the weekend-after-this-coming-one? We can watch HH, and you can show me more delightful Due South. <3

[black-hound.livejournal.com]

I like the crops on these a lot. The Kingston one is tres nice as is the Sheerness. The landing party appeals to me as well. I like icons that are of the period in a general sort of way. But I swear my favorite has to be the HH/WB & Maria icon. I'm waiting for Bush to throw the bouquet. :D

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

You showing me that screencap = you making my WEEK. Seriously. It fills me with total glee every time I look at it, and man oh man. I'm trying to imagine what Hornblower would think of Bush's mother in her role as his new mother-in-law. *weeeeeeping*

[black-hound.livejournal.com]

There's another screencap in Loyalty I believe where they do the same thing. Look right over someone else and focus on each other. I used in that icon. *points* Only I removed the person in the middle -- Orrock.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

GOD. I LOVE THE SMILE THAT HORNBLOWER GIVES BUSH IN THAT SCENE. It's so totally :> I have the best boyfriend ever :> :> This is even nicer than when he surprised me with new curtains and then fucked me silly on the brand new coverlet :>

[black-hound.livejournal.com]

Yep. It was Loyalty. This must be right when Hornblower gets back on board after being off spying with Cotard. *G*

Screencap

One of the things I really noticed in Duty when I was vidding it, and it holds in Loyalty too, is just how much time Bush spends looking at HH. Pretty much ALL the time. It just seems to be always there -- frame by frame.

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

Dog and his master, man.

And yeah. randomalia says the same thing, too, though I'm usually squealing at the mere sight of McGann in his trim little Navy uniform, and yeah. She also pointed out that even beyond that, Bush seem fixated on Hornblower's mouth.

*_____*

[nolivingman.livejournal.com]

Well, have you taken a good look at Hornblower's (Ioan's) mouth? I don't blame him for staring one bit. Sometimes *I* stare at it, and that's just still photos; I'd be fixated in person.

Love the icons; I've snagged the Horatio/Maria wedding one (the one without his boyfriend). Thanks!

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

<3 Glad you like the icons, and yeah. There isn't nearly enough fandom discussion of either Maria or that period in HH's life, I don't think.

And ahaha. Yeah. Gruffudd has a mouth made for sin even more than McGann does. I can't even think about them making out because as soon as I do, all neural function shuts do...

[http://users.livejournal.com/_oggy_/]

oh my god, that cap is too much. waaaaay to much. as much as i dislike how the screen writers completely ripped apart "hotspur" and made up new plot lines, i really liked how they played up bush's affection for hornblower. whether it was mcgann or the writers, it was awesome. as was the increasing bitchiness of hornblower.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_oggy_/]

they are so pretty! have made my dissertation-proposal miserable day all that more brighter. have snagged a couple, i now have space for them! so excited!

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

Your new default icon makes me go all *_____*

I'm glad that you liked the icns, though bah for work. :/ At least the stuff is getting done, right?

[thehappyreturn.livejournal.com]

*twiddles fingers*

um.

I have no idea of the etiquette of all this being totally new to the fandom (or any kind of LJ fandom) but I've friended you - hurray - and I'm 100% made up about the idea that you put a recommendation in your LJ for my fic. Eg I squealed and then slipped and fell over a pile of paper on the floor.

So sorry if this is spammy and not the done thing and really nothing to do with this post, but eeek!

Thanks! That was very nice of you!

[quigonejinn.livejournal.com]

Not nearly as nice as that fic deserves, actually. XD I always go hoarse from squealing whenever it shows up on my f-list, and I meant every word of what I said in the recc. It's a delightful, wonderful thing, and good to know, too, that you didn't mind being recc'd.

<3333 Here's to hoping to seeing more soon.

[thehappyreturn.livejournal.com]

it's on its way.

:D
