In the most recent episode of a history podcast I enjoy (Lions Led By Donkeys, Ep. 339: The Great Panjandrum), one of the hosts declared that it was time for gay people to stop categorizing themselves as different kinds of animal, and start categorizing themselves as different kinds of ships, like sloops and frigates. Now, I bring this question to the largest number of gay* people who like ships I can find: all of you.

*queer, non-cishet, LGBTQ, whatever umbrella term you prefer

Bonus points if you tell us why you're the kind of ship that you are!

Interesting how often the Aubrey-Maturin and Hornblower series are compared when to me the vibes couldn't be more different... Reading the Aubreyad feels like a rejuvenating hang out experience with your best friends but reading Hornblower feels like working as an underpaid psychiatrist watching helplessly as your patient with every mental problem ignores all your advice and takes none of your prescriptions and digs himself into a hole deeper than you even knew was possible

Terror Tumblr: Have you watched/read Hornblower or Master And Commander?

I want to know how overlapping these fandoms are lmao

Hi my name is Mr Midshipman Horatio Hornblower and I am loosely based on Horatio Nelson (that’s how I got my name) and I have long curly dark brown hair that I tie back with a ribbon and big wet brown eyes like a drowned cat and a lot of people tell me I’m a bootlicker of King George (AN: if u don’t know who he is get da hell out of here!). I’m not related to Edward Pellew but I wish I was because he’s a major fucking hottie. I’m an officer in the Royal Navy but I have seasickness and social anxiety. I have sickly white skin. I’m also a mathematician, and I serve aboard a ship called the Indefatigable near Europe where I’m a midshipman (I’m seventeen). I’m suicidal (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly my naval uniform. For example today I was wearing a white shirt with a matching waistcoat around it and white cotton breeches, white stockings and black buckled shoes. I was walking on the deck of the Marie Galante. It was cloudy and cold and there was no wind, which I was very miserable about. A lot of the frenchmen stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.
