And this isn't even one of the best examples. Some books do this to a much greater extent. Just take a look into the Hornblower books. There, you really start wondering. (The game "Fic or Forester" doesn't exist without reason haha.)

I haven't read any Forester since I was like 12 and I don't remember it much at all, but from what I hear it seems it's one of the ones that verges into actual subtext at times.

It does have some real gems.

Drunk Bush:
“He knew his face was one big smile, and he put his head on one side and his shoulder on the table so that Hornblower should get the ful benefit of it.”

Hand porn:

"Bush watched as Hornblower’s capable fingers worked the parallel rulers across the chart; Hornblower had long bony hands with something of beauty about them, and it was actually fascinating to watch them doing work at which they were so supremely competent. The powerful fingers picked up the pencil and ruled a line."




Bonus:

Taken completely out of its context, this little piece sounds like taken directly from a smutty slashfic:
"“It’s pretty swollen here, too, sir,” whispered Bush. The glands in his groin were huge.
“Yes,” said Hornblower."

The context is much more unpleasant.
