fdjdghdf clearly. Can you just imagine the Lords of the Admiralty sitting around after word about the Witch of Endor and the escape? "You think Hornblower's stopped fucking his first lieutenant yet? I heard he lost a leg, after all."
or
"What do you MEAN, it wouldn't be a good idea to call that stumpy-legged motherfucker Mrs. Hornblower on the deck of his own ship?"
And DAMMIT. Now I almost phyically need fic about Bush leading that Baltic squadron home. GODDMAN.
BookPellew doen't seem to pull plum promotions for HH quite as much as the movie version does, I don't think, but yeah, you're right. He does have the big squishy love in surplasage for HH, doesn't he? *ponders those goopy letters that Pellew sends him when he takes over command of the In-Shore*
