* UptightLovesWild: Proper, reserved British royal Henry falls in love with extroverted, fun-loving Alex. Somewhat subverted in that, when he's with people he truly trusts, Henry is significantly less proper than he first appears, with a witty sense of humour and a writer's sensitivity and gift with words. Meanwhile, seemingly-frivolous Alex is also incredibly driven and intelligent with an ambition to hold political office one day and change the world for the better.
