Ancient hornpipe I had in my folder

[leprecon98]

Once the music starts, Bagpipe tugs a dumbstruck Horn to come along. Bagpipe's kilt is long and flowing and gorgeous as she spins, aglow like a daffodil, like the paraffin lamp by your bedside. It makes Horn conscious of how she's not in uniform either. Her white pencil skirt was rummaged out of her old wardrobe from her academy days. Still fits, but she feels so strange in it. Like two empty hands missing their sword and shield. "Leader, move your body a bit! No one's goin' tae laugh at ye." Bagpipe thinks she's embarrassed. "Look, just follow ma rhythm now, it isnae hard at all!" What rhythm? Horn can't help but crack up at that. If skipping to the beat were a class, Fiona Young'd be losing every last mark.

An adaptation of a scene from Horn's Module Y story, where she and Bagpipe hit the pub and get on the pish after the conclusion of the Londinium War. I already shipped Hornpipe before that module came along, and its story only solidified my position on it.

Victoria cuties！

风笛😍号角😍

我其实就是风笛厨但更了解维多利亚的相关剧情以后我发现她们还挺好磕的（？

I actually liked Bagpipe very much, until I read the related plots of the two of them and some stories of Horn, I was moved by the comradeship-in-arms between them, and I loved them❤️

I'll be working more on these two and Arknights fanart in the future!

Gobs aboard the new scout cruiser U.S.S. Chicago at the Brooklyn Navy Yard forgot their girls in every other port and whooped it up when Ginger Rogers started doing a ha-cha sailors hornpipe aboard the cruiser, October 21, 1931. Here's Ginger giving the tars a treat with a Broadway version of the ancient sailors dance.

"Do The Hornpipe"

Before working on this project, I had no idea who John Durang is. Now I've seen so many damn videos of people playing "Durang's Hornpipe".

Hell, I even learned that theater was banned in the U.S.. These performances were called lectures.

Let's dance the Hornpipe

This dance, although often known as Sailor's dance, is not a pure Sailor dance. The hornpipe is a traditional English dance piece with a lively tempo, originally notated in 3/2 time. Around 1760, the name changed to music in 2/4 or 4/4 time. It is named after the old wind instrument of the same name, which was especially common in Wales and Scotland. And there were several variations of it and the Sailor's Hornpipe is just one variation of it.

"In Britain the Hornpipe is a dance held as original to this country. ... some of the steps have been used in the English country dance, particularly by the lower class of the people ... and few English seamen are to be found that are not acquainted with the Hornpipe ... Boys at school destined for the Navy make a point of learning it. Comic dancers coming here (from abroad) apply themselves with great attention to the true study of the Hornpipe and by constant practice acquire the ability of performing it with success in foreign countries where it always meets with the highest applause."

It may have been around - the late 15th and early 16th centuries - that dancing became associated with sailors and the sea. It is easy to understand that the small space required for the dance and the fact that no partner was necessary made it particularly suitable for dancing on board ships.

Samuel Pepys mentioned the dance in his diary and called it "The Jig of the Ship". And it is recorded that Captain Cook ordered his men to dance the hornpipe to keep them in good health in the confines of the sailing ships of the time.

Ashore, sailors performed the hornpipe to entertain themselves, often as part of the frolic of a "run ashore", after a few drinks, to attract the attention of women, or out of sheer bravado. Thus, along with the sailors' distinctive dress, language and body adornment, tattoos, the hornpipe became another recognisable cultural symbol of being a jack in the harbour, albeit very clichéd.
