Emma Pole/Arabella Strange/Flora Greysteel, Pistol Duels
Whilst on the Continent, Emma Pole, who is very fed up with men trying to take whatever they want from women, gets embroiled in a pistol duel (or a series of them) in defense of Arabella and/or Flora's honour. She's gotten somewhat handy with a gun since she shot Childermass in the chest, and quickly becomes rather feared for it. The other two ladies take to this rather well, despite perhaps some reservations on Arabella's part.
Watching the series, one of the first things I thought about Emma's faerie-induced greying was that she was gaining something of a Bride of Frankenstein look (yes, I know, movies not book, but still). And, well, travelling Europe with Arabella, Flora and the poetic set, there's the original author herself. So. Mary Shelley finding a muse and a lover in this wild, resurrected woman who takes no shit from anybody? Maybe throw in Emma developing something of a talent for weather (storm) magic along the way?
