    ...mostly via the application of liberal amounts of alcohol, and maybe a smidgeon of actual use of words.

    Summary

    The prompt contained the following sentence: “Laurence is so repressed and Tharkay so self-contained that it sometimes feels like it would take an outlandish set of circumstances to get them to open up about their feelings.” I absolutely agree, and one of the challenges I’ve found with writing these two is that it often feels out-of-character for them to talk about their emotions or be verbally demonstrative, two things which I, personally, enjoy reading very much. I wanted to force them to say every tender, horny, romantic thing they might be feeling deep down inside their repressed 19th century minds, and the only way I could think of doing it is magic, inspired by This_is_Sere’s wonderful fic “Aperol Switch.”

    Thank you to VerdetCadet and sere(This_is_Sere) for their excellent work as beta readers!

    To punch_kicker15, I hope this fic fulfills your request and I truly hope you enjoy it. Thank you for such a well thought out request!

    Summary

    Ever since childhood, it has been a truth universally acknowledged for Tharkay that everything good in life comes at a price. Inviting Laurence to station indefinitely at his estate implied Tharkay’s awareness and consent of Temeraire’s presence, and for all Tharkay's fondness for the creature, Temeraire remains, well, Temeraire. What Tenzing was not aware of was that, in hindsight, inevitably, he was to become subjected to Temeraire’s profound affections, which projected onto the dragon's belief that the estate and its inhabitants can be treated as dolls in a dollhouse and picked up whenever Temeraire feels appropriate.
