Under Full Sail
Jun. 6th, 2012 05:31 pmTITLE Under Full Sail
RATING PG-13
WORD COUNT 726
PAIRING, IF ANY Kitty Cobham/Edward Pellew
SPOILER WARNING It's set in 1780, it CAN'T have spoilers.
DISCLAIMER Neither Kitty nor Edward nor the dress belong to me.
SUMMARY A young, unmarried Captain Pellew, set ashore after his first command, pays a visit to Drury Lane.
Notes: inspired by the dress photo, and tumblr users' mumblingsage and buckbeakbabie's encouragement. THIS IS ALL THEIR FAULT.
Apparently I can't even write silly fluff like this without research; I scanned over the real Edward Pellew's career to figure out what he was doing around the given date for the dress (and then fudged it by a month or two to get him home in time for Christmas), and double-checked to see whether the Christmas pantomime tradition had solidified into its current form with the dame and the first boy and all (it hadn't yet, but there was certainly pantomime at Drury Lane).
