I love the idea that Norrell has deeply, deeply repressed his attraction to men, and he spends a great deal of time with, and being taken care of by, that handsome devil Childermass. On top of his internalized homophobia there's also his issues with the class difference between them. I would love to see something (whether from Childermass's perspective or Norrell's) where they interact and Norrell is struggling to hide his feelings for Childermass. ESPECIALLY if Childermass has to touch him for some reason (his coat needs to be fixed? his wig?) and Norrell is super affected by it while Childermass is 100% professional.
