Rum, sodomy and the lash.

Jan 28, 2005 12:19

Now that I have hopefully piqued your interest by my eye-catching choice of subject.....

( Most protracted internet round-robin jokes suck like a sucky thing. But this one? Well. Clickity click dearios and see. You may laugh. You may not. I live in hope. )

*cracks up*

What brought about this hilarious little re-write of history?

we_love_smudger January 28 2005, 14:01:33 UTC

No idea at all hun. The Devil making work for idle hands to do I suspect :) And I wouldn't have posted it except for the last lines which added a touch of the slash (as opposed to a touch of the lash.)

Nautical bunnies ahoy I'd imagine. To the lifeboats! *treads water in desperation*

Looks like the start of a date-rape scenario to me...

*shouldn't larf* *does larf*

I like the theory I heard postulated recently that Nelson actually said "Kismet, Hardy. Kismet." And I also learnt this very week that he never wore an eyepatch so someone needs to shimmy up his Column with a chisel in the pursuit of authenticity. I like Nelson. He's an awkward sonovabitch :)

I tell you what, you shin. I'll stand around at the bottom and hold your spare chisel.

Ah. Right. Making the ultimate sacrifice for historical accuracy and fear of heights not withstanding, off I go, crampons at the ready, safety line taut.

And I am suddenly and happily restrained by armed coppers on the lookout for the Fathers For Justice posse.

OhIloveyou. That was just wonderful.

I love Nelson and the Navy...but they really wouldn't fit with our politically correct world.

This was great....I loved it. Thanks for the day-brightener as I heard off to work (erk).

Brings back memories of my gung-ho Horatio Hornblower love. That was one of me first fandoms, so reading this was like a funny and cute fic ^_^

valkyrie17 January 29 2005, 02:58:00 UTC

Arie...since you liked Hornblower, and if you have some time one day...would you beta a Gaz/Becks nautical AU ?

chelseaurchin January 29 2005, 11:21:19 UTC

I'd be honoured to, matey ^___^

Send the lads over!

we_love_smudger January 29 2005, 15:17:11 UTC

Thanks darlin'. You'll loff it I think. Valkyrie rather sweetly wrote it for me when I was poorly-sick and it did work its magic on the sensitive parts :) Even if the result was an even higher temperature than was probably wise ;)

Ship ahoy! And other marine cliches....
