@flintsredhair replied to your chat : Admiral Hennessey: My concern with you is that…

Actually I’d argue that it was less about his career than it was about Queen and country. I have massive headcanon about this guy, but still – yeah, a little cowardly, and definitely not at all fatherly.

Let’s hear it then! 😀 I’ve never given any particular thought about this particular charachter so far (beyond the basic: oh THERE HE IS, the dick who betrayed our Sad Naval Ginger MuffinTM)

Oooh, happily! See, I got to thinking and talking with Shirogiku one day and, well…

This was the result.  

I can’t hate the character now. I thought about him too much. I’ve tried it on for size and nope. Alfred Hamilton’s a dick, but I think Hennessey’s just a poor bastard stuck in a bad spot without any way to be a father but to try and get James out of the country while he still could.
