Character name: Horatio Hornblower Age: 22 Canon: C. S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower series Info: There's a wiki page here, although I would caveat that the Hornblower Wikia as a whole only sometimes distinguishes between book canon and movie canon. I have a book-specific timeline cobbled for my own purposes, but the overarching gist is that Horatio has been an officer in the Royal Navy since the age of 17 (which is Too Old to start but screw the rules), has seen a good deal of action for the time period (including two incidents which led to him being held as a prisoner of war), and most recently was released as a freshly minted lieutenant from prison to serve on the HMS Renown under Captain James Sawyer (whom someone someday may or may not murder itisamystery.ghost). All of this has made him very: tense; intense; deeply unhappy and painfully self-critical; quiet. Mostly quiet.
Canon point: The bridge between Mr Midshipman Hornblower and Lieutenant Hornblower (post-Ferrol, pre-arrival of William Bush in his life)

Plans: He is going to learn this ship and fly this ship that's it that's literally the whole plan I guess he could make friends along the way but also heck that noise the only friends he needs is the weird floaty nonsense man who's going to help him learn how to fly this ship he wants to be useful let him be useful (but also I would like him learn how to make non-work actual-friends and say things out loud to them that'd be swell). I'd also like to explore him knowing that being a stonefaced as shit won't stop people from knowing what he's feeling and seeing what that does to his brain. Suggestions: If there is a way to make AVP happen around these fools at some point, it should absolutely happen.
