My love for this particular passage is beyond my command of words:
The German, who had gotten slotted into the complex inner workings of the palatial mansion far too easily for comfort, blinked several times. Surprisingly, it was the paperwork that made things- easier. He had gotten swept to suit fittings, shoe fittings. Someone had been around to cut and style his hair and even fit him with a new pair of reading glasses. But the paperwork made things simpler. He could settle on the ancient and probably priceless desk he had been given and reduce the world to comparing documents and line upon line of numbers of innumerable accounts and transactions.
So cinematic! Oh I adore, absolutely adore your writing style.
Lovely, lovely Alfred! Why so cute? I think it's also not-so-strangely fitting that you based him on Wash. That made me dance extra happily for the meta-mention of Firefly! And glasses is so totally a sexy accessory, particularly on Ludwig. *shot*
Off topic: Could being far sighted makes Ludwig a good/better marksman than he otherwise would be? No, this is totally irrelevant I know, just a random thought.
Now that you mentioned weaponry, I am curious what weapon each of them uses (Feliciano uses a handgun of sorts, usually tucked away in a briefcase, Kiku uses the sword, iirc from previous parts) Tell me MORE!

Thank you. /blush
Alfred strikes me as the Wash-type. Including acting out things using his plastic dinosaur collection when he's bored. "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"
Ludwig is a decent marksman, definitely better than average. It might be due to his farsightedness, it might not. :D He's a good shot and to be honest, a shotgun wouldn't be a bad weapon for him; he's certainly strong enough to handle the recoil without any trouble.
I'll go into weaponry later, especially when Ludwig meets everyone else.
Same anon as above

Shotgun definitely would work well with Ludwig's physique - the Walther PPK might be on the tiny side in his hand (me = all about the visual and not the practicality, you see) but one thing that concerns me about shotgun is that it is a relatively slower weapon - the recoil is one thing, how about the reload???
Then again, Ludwig handling a shotgun brought up fond memories of Biohazard/Resident Evil. Hmmm~ I can't wait!!! And if you would explain this episode of spontaneous "Fire up" that would be awesome~

Ludwig is nothing if not practical, on the other hand. xD
Okay, okay... the shotgun just might come into play in the near future. Maybe. Especially if Alfred keeps needling Ludwig enough and finally gets him to at least try the damned thing.
The spontaneous Flame generation is testament to Alfred's profound Power of Annoyance. :P Only partially kidding. But basically it means Ludwig won't need any chemical aid in ah... getting it up, so to speak. /shot
same weaponry anon as above...

Hmmm, practical? What is that?
Please please please write more about sexy man handling dangerous weapon (case in point: Ludwig in Second), my head turns to mush just the tiniest bit every time I read that.
But basically it means Ludwig won't need any chemical aid in ah... getting it up, so to speak. /shot
<@>///<@> This this this... I am not sure if I should die of laughter or embarrassment. So the next best thing?
/head explodes
I shall go back and read more KHR as a refresher course to this fill... I don't think I got that far into the X-BURN parts yet.
PS: Bonus love to Alfred for being a ployglotte, I can totally hear his mile-a-minute speaking pattern and jumping between the languages. Now if only he start picking up German from Ludwig (which is so not happening, at all).
