Disclaimer: I don't own Hornblower or any of the characters therein, which are the property of CS Forester and A&E/Meridian. OC Marines are mine, apart from Cullen who stowed away from
wayward_shadows. I make no profit from writing in fandom and all characters are returned to their boxes when I have finished with them. Apart from the Marines, who are mine anyway. Opinions stated within are not necessarily those of the author.
Author's Note: The events aboard His Majesty's Ship Renown, as seen by one of the Marines. The story was originally inspired by
lokei's Hornblower Alphabet Soup challenge back in January 2011, where I drew the letters D and U. And thanks to all of you, my loyal readers, without whom I would never have got my first multi-part story completed. Not bad, considering I thought it was going to be a two-part story, back before I began writing it. Please comment - I do like to know people enjoy my work. I am a comment whore, after all... :D
Links all go to my fic journal on DW; I am posting here because the links in the original posts as I was writing no longer work as I have deleted my fic journal over here, and I never posted Part 10 on LJ.
