Mar 27, 2011 23:46

I'm not too sure on this one. It was started for a KinkMeme over on DW, but it has turned into something of an epic. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing I have yet to find out.

Title: "Misplaced"
Rating: 15 (overall)
Pairings: Wellington/Sharpe
Summary: Class Swap AU: Sir Richard Sharpe is C-in-C of the Peninsula Forces, and Arthur Wesley ( Read more... )

book: triumph, book: tiger, character: wellington, sharpe/wellington, fic

Thanks. :) I live by the rule in fic that anything is possible if it is thought out carefully enough (e.g. Arthur=King Arthur), but even so I was still a little uncertain as to whether this could work. Seems to be going alright so far...

I'm really enjoying this - and its fearfully brave of you to do such a role reversal - and carry it off!!! I had a hard time putting Sharpey as THE HON - hummmmf? but got round it in the end by a mind-prompt of Lord Fenton a bit - then it was fine! Great - please keep us up with the adventure - maybe B.Cornwell will have to rewrite some things ....teehee!

It's possible that Sharpe was genuinely 'the Hon. Richard', though he would never have known about it.*g*

It was a challenge, sure, and still is (The wretched boys are making it difficult for me as they keep wanting to change back to their orginial roles in my head.*sighs*), but it seems to be going alright and hopefully will continue to do so. :D I'm, glad you're enjoying it, and thanks for commenting!
