As someone who had not read the novel, I didn't know the nature of Drawlight and Lascelles' relationship when they were first introduced. However, I immediately assumed that Lascelles was supposed to be Drawlight's lover, or Drawlight a friend with benefits, i.e. in it for the idle company, money and sex, or something like that. Therefore I would like to read something exploring that. Maybe their relationship is established and the centre of much scandal and intense gossip, or perhaps it was just a one-time drunken fling over a card table. Could be hate-filled, unexpectedly fluffy, one-sided, I don't mind. I should add that I adore height/size difference pairings. As pretty as the literary Drawlight is supposed to be, I feel that his poor dumpy TV counterpart needs some love too, even if he is an 'odious little man'. :P However, if A!A would prefer to write them as they appear in the novel's canon, I won't mind at all. Basically all I want is to read about these two awful men as a couple.
