First impression: I don't think I had a coherent impression of him until I watched the first series from the beginning in the late 1980s. Before that I didn't really have an opinion of him as distinct from the series. After that, I decided his rubber-faced cringing series 1 characterisation was hilarious.
Impression now: I can't help cheering him on even while he's plotting the deaths of people who've done nothing worse than annoy him.
Favorite moment: So many, but I'm very fond of his conversation with the young crone in 'Bells'.
Idea for a story: I'd like to see more of the Roman set of characters we encountered in Back and Forth. And the Unconventional Courtship generator would like to see a Star Trek: Enterprise crossover.
256) Mistress Below Deck by Helen Dickson
Kidnap, deception…and forbidden desire
Edmund Blackadder's ship is no place for a lady — especially one as wilful and spirited as Miss T'Pol. Edmund is chasing pirates, T'Pol her kidnapped brother — and the price to board his ship is one night in his bed! T'Pol despises Edmund's arrogance, is immune to his lethal charm, and certainly doesn't quiver at his touch… her stubbornness wouldn't allow it! But she's boarding that ship come what may. Masquerading as a cabin boy, she's prepared for the dangers of the high seas…but is she prepared for the notorious Edmund Blackadder?
Unpopular opinion: Hey, I don't go round testing my opinions about Blackadder against popular consensus. Look at what happened to Michael Gove :-)
Favorite relationship: The one constant across the series is his master-servant relationship with Baldrick (and no, I don't ship them). So it wins by default.
Favorite headcanon: Again, not a fandom for which I have many headcanons; I seem to be content to take the episodes as they come.
