Cordelia is a very good introduction to Barrayar ... but in the Miles POV stories, and Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen, she didn't really have her own cultural hangups, and it was very much as if she was the all-knowing and flawless. Characters are more interesting if they're flawed or have blind spots! They're all products of their upbringing and it's best if they reflect the mud they grew from.

The mask is also nice, but glasses must win. Shen Wei is a very snappy dresser. I'll have to screencap all of him.

(Icons are super fun, and the two things I've seen being planned – one as a spec document for Pinboard Guy, one by a fan for fans – both have icons as a thing.)
