Relativity by Nicole D'annais (NC-17)

Fandom: HORNBLOWER
Pairing: Horatio/Archie
Author on LJ: ndannais
Author Website: http://www.squidge.org/~ndannais

Why this must be read:

This is a Live Kennedy Universe story using elements and characters from the Secret Adventures of Jules Verne to resurrect and save Archie. If you haven't seen that show, don't let it detour you from reading. I have to say this is one of the most comforting fix-its around with the sheer escapism factor of a machine to bring someone back from the dead. After something as horrible as the end of Retribution, one could use a break from reality.

What's also unique about this story is that it's a first time fic. The step from platonic to sexual relationship comes naturally, with lots of kissing and cuddles. The characters are portrayed exactly as we see them on screen, with Horatio fussy, protective, and adorably sweet, and Archie cynical, but perceptive and quick on the trigger. I only wish I had read this thing right after watching Retribution.

Ummm...I'm afraid you've got the wrong author. The fic is actually by ndannais. Her website is here (http://www.squidge.org/~ndannais/).

I only wish Anais would write more Hornblower.

LOL! Thank you so much! *bangs head*. I thought they were the same person - ie the anais/annais. Will fix ASAP. Thanks!

But see! With two of them, that could mean we get twice as much fic!

/nods enthusiastically

Why are we not gettting twice as much H/A fic?

/taps foot impatiently

Ahh, SAJV

a machine to bring someone back from the dead.

This machine is canon in SAJV.

Thanks for reminding me if this story. SAJV was the fandom that sucked me in. I will always be more than fond of it. And the slash potential of Jules and Phileas. Oh MY!
