Alas, I didn't have time to write a new offering for the Extremities Challenge :( so instead I'm going to re-post something from the vaults, which I think fits the bill :) This is my second ever HH fic and it was originally written for lokei's Hornblower Alphabet Soup, way back in 2010. There will be picspam to follow...

AUTHOR: Anteros
CHARACTERS: Hornblower, Kennedy, Mariette
RATING: G
DISCLAIMER: Not mine.
WORD COUNT: 762
NOTES:I wrote this ages ago and forgot all about it until I watched The Frogs and The Lobsters again recently. It's just a sort of small "missing scene" that adds to Just A Man.

He could see her face so clearly; a small, pretty ( Read more... )

It's not quite midnight so I think I've just got time for one more entry to the Way To A Man's Heart Challenge. An old one this time, and as usual with me, it features more drink than food, but there's plenty of lurve with a little bit of angst on the side.

WORD COUNT: 1565
NOTES:I'm posting this for the following_sea Way To A Man's Heart challenge, but I'm afraid it's a complete cheat. I didn't have time to write anything new for the challenge so I've salvaged this from my drafts folder. It only makes a ( Read more... )

TITLE: The Silver Razor: Kingston
AUTHOR: Anteros
CHARACTERS: Bush, Kennedy
RATING: G
DISCLAIMER: Not mine.
WORD COUNT: 1371

CHARACTERS: Kennedy / Hornblower
RATING: NC-17
DISCLAIMER: Not mine.
WORD COUNT: 1052
NOTES: This is a continuation of The Boat because eglantine_br said she wanted to hear about the penance. It was supposed to be pwp but, tbh, it's a bit tame :} It also won't really make any sense unless you've read The Boat, but in my ( Read more... )

Every year I try to write a fic to mark the winter solstice. This year RL got in the way and, as a result, I've been sadly neglecting the lovely Indyboys, real and fictional. So in lieu of something more original, here's the first solstice fic I wrote. In fact this is one of the first fics I wrote full stop! In my defence, this fic pre-dates the ( Read more... )
