* ''Literature/AubreyMaturin'': Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin are a subversion that seems played straight at first. Stephen Maturin is a 5'6" tall, ill-looking physician and naturalist, who can never grasp details of life at sea. Jack Aubrey is a 6'6", heavily built naval war hero, whose body is covered with scars from various boarding actions he commanded, and who constantly fails hilariously at quoting TheBible or classical literature. However, Stephen manages to defeat several of Jack's lieutenants at fencing practice, and follows it up with shooting the pips off a playing card at twenty paces. Meanwhile, Jack has very little natural curiousity and sees no value in learning for its own sake, but will hurl himself head first into any academic pursuit he believes to be useful. When the series ends he has been one of three RN captains chosen for their astronomical skills to observe the passage of Venus (a once in a millenium occurence), his papers on geometry have won him a Fellowship in the Royal Society, and he always builds all his own telescopes and spyglasses.
