my fandoms have

I was looking at some jaw-droppingly delicious Sharpe fanart the other day, and an epiphany hit me: I suddenly realized what my fandoms have in common - or rather, what it is that the characters I swoon for seem to (mostly) share.

My fandoms have spiffy jackets with lots of buttons. )

Uh, yum. That is yummy fanart. Maybe I ought to investigate this Sharpe thing (which I had never heard of before you started talking about it).

I'm getting into Master and Commander, actually. Are you into that? (I mean, there are buttons.) I loved the movie and the first book, and I've been reading some fic. Mostly, I love Stephen Maturin and identify with the geeky naturalist stuff he's doing all the time. : ) But the ship stuff is cool, too.

Okay, I'm convinced--I'll check out the Sharpe series. : ) Actually, I think I have music by John Tams somewhere in my (huge) music folder.

Also, I need to get myself some more of the Master and Commander books.

You will LOVE the music with Sharpe. Not the inappropriate battle music, but the theme and the incidental folk music. John Tams, who plays the strangely attractive (to me) Hagman (I like 'em tall and lanky) does the folk music - he's an amazing singer - and it's just great.
