Also, the more books I read, the less Temeraire strikes me as the doe-eyed young bishounen type, even if he were to swallow a pearl and turn into a human like many fans have suggested. *g* (Appearance-wise I'm thinking Feilong from Viewfinder only whole lot less languid.) And even then I would feel a little weird about slashing him with Laurence. :| He would just be... idk an awesome young scholar-general type. *_*

Side characters are fair game, though. :D
