...I leave you guys alone for one weekend and it's time for a new Fritz post, lol!

I'm gonna reply to the previous post comments but I guess new letter-reading, etc. should go in this one :)

Re: Toppings of all types, continued: Fritz/Casanova

So I haven’t browsed the fic at all, and am taking mildred’s comments to heart, but you would have thought that this Brilliant Damaged Paranoid Older War General/Flirty Scheming Successful Young Rough Trade Con Man pairing would be filled with crossgen kink and razor-edged snark and attempted doublecrossing and inevitable hatesex? If not, then, as you say, what’s the point of this ship? (For the record, I would read the crap out of the former!)

FW/giants is canon, and Giants Top! ought to be!

Honestly, I haven't read any because the summaries and the tags already tell me it's not this. Which I would also love to read. Instead, AU Casanova seems to be a sweet natured comfort providing sub, if said summaries and tags are anything to go by. Which, for this particular pairing, I have zero interest in.

On the other hand: if you visit Sanssouci these days, there's apparantly a tour through the park where Casanova tells you all about his meeting with Fritz and adds a few stories he's heard about him to boot, which probably is more fun, and more historical, even if it's lacking them actually getting it on...
