Thirty Days of Medici: Love (or at least Sex) Across Space and Time
Day 12 ~ Historical Crackship: Who belongs together, time and space be damned?
Well, the dates would even almost work, but not quite. (I think he was still a youngster in Spain at the relevant time.) I’m thinking Contessina/Rodrigo Borgia, either during Cosimo’s exile in Venice or later between seasons when she’s a widow. Rodrigo is into intelligent, strong-willed women, and he could learn a lot from her. Meanwhile, Contessina deserves an angst-free fling, and since Rodrigo has his eyes up the clerical ladder, it’s clear it won’t be more than that.
Far more cracky, but also fun: Jacopo Pazzi/Winn Adami (from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, played by the great Louise Fletcher). She’s a corrupt Renaissance cardinal (later pope) in space who knows what it’s like if some upstart keeps you from ruling your home turf, and has been known to have sex with more than one fellow manipulative bastard. There’d be glorious scheming, mutual back stabbing, and best of all, she’d have zero time for being patronized to and pushed around. Her Eminence is the Kai of Bajor, Jacopo. You better prepare for getting your ear grabbed.
