It kinda surprised me, in a way, to see what a family man Hornblower turned out to be. Like, sure, I knew he was hungry for affection and love and a place to belong, but man oh man. I know some hardcore AoS people complain about the fact that the first bit in Atropos is HH going to London or whatever with the family, but I loved reading about the Great Sausage Caper and how he's like :> if baby Horry were a few years older, I could teach him all about boats. :>
I wonder whether Barbara would have gone for him on the Lydia if he hadn't been so fucked up and broken.
