"Aww... yeah, Laurence would be just in it for the platonic comforting huggles... and then we can see the tables being turned and having TEMERAIRE act stoic and knowing more about the situation and trying to act with propriety, not the other way around for once. ;)" OMG YES-- it would be very upsetting to Laurence, he knows that, and worse-- Laurence would STOP. And that is not to be borne, so Tem occasionally makes a fast excuse about needing a swim and finds some nice rocks. (There is one little pool near the covert NO other dragon will approach. It's his favorite spot. It's clearly marked as his territory, they're not even trying it)
"Yeah, I can see Temeraire being defensive about it because of COURSE he would NEVER harm Laurence... but Jane is telling the truth." So then he's devastated that there was a CHANCE of hurting Laurence in that way, but Jane's very practical and quite kind in her own way so she outlines the Ways of seducing the man. 'I did it, after all, and I dare say that you have advantages of both appearance and intimacy in your favor already.' Tem would be jealous, but Jane clearly can't have sex with Laurence again, and Laurence would be VERY upset if Tem were to leave a single scratch out of pique.
"I love this thought. Please include it at some point. What does Temeraire find particularly attractive about this dragon!Laurence? ;)" Oh my, THAT is a list. It leaves dragon!Laurence quite flustered and shy, because he can hardly compete with an Imperial, let alone a Celestial, and nobody's wanted him quite so badly. He and Jane weren't nearly so serious, but if he loses Tem, he gives up.
