I blame Elb for this, or rather I blame Patrick O'Brian. It's entirely down to reading books about sailing and sailors. I mean this Vignette contains words such as 'larboard', 'bosun' and 'salt beef', for goodness sake

Why is there no Hottie Hot Legolas in those tight white breeches and stockings and naval uniforms, HMMMM? I AM DISAPPOINTED.
It said much that while the crowning glory of Ecthelion's achievement in the campaign was to tell the French to invade Russia, Legolas's lasting legacy on the war would be his advice to Nelson regarding a sorry little stretch of water called 'Trafalgar.' To this day Ecthelion would stil bridle at the mention of it and insist on calling Trafalgar Square in London 'King William the Fourth's Square' (to which everyone said he was 'anally retentive prick', and by 'everyone' I mean 'Elladan', of course).
One of favourite paragraphs in all of TADers. SRSLY. XD

HEE! YAYs! SO glad you approve, and it made you LOL!
Ah, Legolas as Navy Captain has to be saved for the TADer/Aubreyad crossover. Naked swimming Glorfindel, Stephen challenging Rhimlath... Oh and I reckon Rhimlath WOULD choose pistols because he's an arrogant enough arse that he'd reckon he could do it ("How damn difficult can it be? If I can fire a bow I can shoot one of these contraptions... Oh, stop fussing, Haldir!") :P *snigger*
So much awesomeness concentrated in one post! Eep! I especially love Cirdan calling Thranduil 'Oropherion' - just establishes how old he is compared to the rest of them. He's like the Elvish version of Gandalf. XD

I am curious, however, how Legolas' remaining crew responded to him after the bloodbath...
