Fantastic, thank you for that. You pulled that off quite nicely. Paul xx

Thanks very much, dear Paul! Your prompt has given me the horrors, and until it was betaed, I thought the ficlet to be utter crap. I'm glad you liked it nevertheless. :)

now, having acquianted myself with both books, i read it with a different eye. and hence a question: what if Hornblower knew about his guardian? would he ever ackowledge his presence, would he try to shoo him away, to keep playing, as he might see it, fair? well, that's a subject i'd love to see researched *hinthint*.

Horatio was just Aziraphale's type, with the dark, curly hair and the deep eyes, his contagious smile and the lanky body

the *type*, uhm, yes :D not fooling anyone but himself with the pretence of work, eh, Aziraphale?

[txorakeriak]

It would certainly be interesting to assume that Hornblower could have known about his guardian, but I never understood it like that. You're not supposed to know about your guardian angel, and in this case, it was probably for the best, considering that Hornblower is a minx and could easily have brought Aziraphale into trouble... ;)

not fooling anyone but himself with the pretence of work, eh, Aziraphale?
Well, especially not Crowley. But the demon isn't "working", either, so I suppose they're square. ;)

This was kind of sad.
But I like the POV, it is very nicely written.

It was a very challenging prompt, so I'm glad you liked it, even though it admittedly is a bit sad. :)
