Why this must be read:
Any character as repressed as Horatio Hornblower needs to be put in drag, and that's exactly what happens here in a desperate attempt to escape a French city. The characterization is fabulous, pitting Archie's clever humor against Horatio's manly pride, and what results is a funny, sexy, and sometimes poignant romp leading to a sweet and quiet ending that reminds us how adorable and insecure the prudish Hornblower is deep-down. To my knowledge, this is the first serious fic of its kind, and should become quite the fandom classic.
