She’s lived for 400 years and hardly aged a day but, because this is England, everyone pretends not to notice.

Total Eclipse - 1995

Part 3/ 3

The thing about watching Hornblower is that it’s from the '90s. This can apply to a lot of things about it, from the cheesy explosion special effects to the candy-apple-red fake blood, but right now it's about a moment that left me feeling some truly indescribable emotions.

(I'm trying to talk about a moment that came out of nowhere for me without giving away any spoilers, so I'm sorry for the intentional vagueness, but if you haven't seen the show yet, you will thank me later.)

I just watched two of the characters in this show have a Big Damn Moment. The music was dramatic, the actors were beautiful, the time would never come again—and while the part of me that has seen more recent boat media was going, "oh my god, are they gonna kiss?" the part of me that is A Queer Millennial knew that a show from the '90s would never let that happen. Alas, compulsory heterosexuality strikes even in the historico-fictional Royal Navy. 😔

I am going to again mention that Hikaru No Go cdrama adaptation Qi Hun is on youtube for free (iqiyi), really really good, and if you ever shipped the two rivals to partners then the cdrama decides well They Do Too and cranks it to Bad Buddy childhood rivals to desperately longing for each other to domestic and professional partners levels. (I'm not kidding, to spoil the ending out of context: they move in together with one bed, play partner go for future career, and end the show together happy). And yes, our ghost friend still absolutely decimated me emotionally. <3 ;-;

Anyway I just. While it's absolutely amazing as a show on simply the merit of quality, pacing, good storyline, solid story it's based on And solid adaptation that kept things true while putting it's own touches? It's also really really heartfelt if you like childhood enemies/friends to partners stories. And it feels as bl as Guardian or Word of Honor did, easily (so clearly shippers helped make the show lol).

Here's where to watch!
