“That’s my uncle!” ;; indie fandomless historical oc. 21+. private & highly selective. Est. March 2015. Rebooted June 2024. ... ... ... brand new and still under construction! trying to figure out a blog name too … uncleiisms, nononsense, genteeel, nobleuncle, nobleton, noblessest, uncletkbt, unclekimby… etc, etc, etc, the story of a background character becoming the protagonist, or is this tale merely written by the pen of a niece's imaginative story-within-a-story?
>> the tea-drinking cool uncle trope, proud & noble, callous-covered compassion, the eternal bachelor married to his work, the regimental veteran, the light side of ambition, the model of a modern major general gentleman, the seasoned advisor, stoic smiles masking sorrows, the confidently charismatic alpha, the unexpected-reluctant parental figure, ‘I may be hypocritical but you cannot deny that I’m right’, & ‘I’m much too old to deal with this nonsense’ , the supporting background character becomes the protagonist

Dossier [under revision!]. Verses.
— rules under the cut :
•• Good ol' RP ettiquitte. No godmodding / ooc drama. RPing is a hobby, so let's keep things fun.
•• Mun and Muse are 21+. also Mun =/= Muse. Sporadic activity.
•• Highly selective & Semi-Private, meaning I only write with mutuals but anyone can send memes. I also have the right to follow and unfollow whoever I choose.
•• Plot-driven preferred. Winging things are also fine.
•• AUs. I love AUs. Can never get enough AUs.
•• OCs, Multi’s, Crossovers, & Duplicates welcome. Unless otherwise pre-plotted, everyone gets their own universe. OCs, canon muses, & multi-muses, please have an about page & info about your muse(s) so I can get to know them!
•• Triggers. No nsfw/smut, gore, animal abuse, or graphic rated ‘R’ violence. If anything I keep action & drama PG-13 (alcohol, violence, death, illness, injury etc). Themes from Western History / Heroic Exploration / the Age of Sail can arise. Please let me know if you have any triggers, I tag anything as ‘tw trigger’.
•• Shipping. Short answer: in the romantic sense... unlikely. “Uncle” Thomas is aro-ace & the 'cool uncle' dashingly handsome eternal bachelor married to his work trope. While a debonair gentleman & ladies' man, Thomas is also very closed off, and he's all too accustomed to his chosen bachelor lifestyle.
(While very unlikely, it's not entirely impossible, but I'd consider it on a case-by-case basis only based on chemistry and writing partners I've written with for some time. Don't get me wrong, I love ships, but Thomas is *extremely* picky and has many onion layers to him.)
•• Other types of ships. Bring on the friendships, coworkers, companions, brothers in arms, rivals, found family, mentor/mentee, frenemies, etc, etc, or, well as his name implies “Uncle” Thomas having “nieces and nephews” (figuratively) I am especially open to exploring!
•• Thomas' neice & the Kimbleton Family. Sir Thomas is Priscilla's uncle and guardian, so you'll likely be hearing about her a lot! If you don't know her already, Priscilla has an rp sideblog at herstoriies. (his niece also loves playing matchmaker to find him a suitable match too, lol) There's more info on the Kimbleton family NPCs here.
•• Memes. Send the meme. Even if we’re not mutuals, send the meme. Even if we’ve only plotted and haven’t interacted before send the meme. If you reblog memes from me I’d really appreciate it if you sent me a meme too otherwise reblog from the source.

Types of Vessels, early 19th century, in : Richard Henry Dana, Jr.’s The Seaman’s Friend Containing a Treatise on Practical Seamanship, with Plates, a Dictionary of Sea Terms; Customs and Usages of the Merchant Service; Laws Relating to the Practical Duties of Master and Mariners 1841
Ship.–A ship is square-rigged throughout; that is, she has tops, and carries square sails on all three of her masts.
Bark.–A bark is square-rigged at her fore and main masts, and differs from a ship in having no top, and carrying only fore-and-aft sails at her mizzenmast.
Brig.–A full-rigged brig is square-rigged at both her masts.
Hermaphrodite Brig.–An hermaphrodite brig is square-rigged at her foremast; but has no top, and only fore-and-aft sails at her main mast.
Topsail Schooner.–A topsail schooner has no tops at her foremast, and is fore-and-aft rigged at her mainmast. She differs from an hermaphrodite brig in that she is not properly square-rigged at her foremast, having no top, and carrying a fore-and-aft foresail, in stead of a square foresail and a spencer.
Fore-and-aft Schooner.–A fore-and-aft schooner is fore-and-aft rigged throughout, differing from a topsail schooner in that the latter carries small square sails aloft at the fore.
Sloop.–A sloop has one mast, fore-and-aft rigged.
Hermaphrodite Brigs sometimes carry small square sails aloft at the main; in which case they are called Brigantines, and differ from a Full-rigged Brig in that they have no top at the mainmast, and carry a fore-and-aft mainsail instead of a square mainsail and trysail. Some Topsail Schooners carry small square sails aloft at the main as well as the fore; being in other respects fore-and-aft rigged. They are then called Main Topsail Schooners.
