I\\\'m reading \\\"Around the World in 80 Days\\\" and debating whether Passepartout is a Watson. He doesn\\\'t do much exposition - Verne, true to form, does plenty of that himself. On the other hand, he contributes emotion and \\\"excitability\\\", which the reader probably needs and the main (Mr. Fogg) stubbornly fails to provide. He reads rather like Watson and Holmes but, as the trope page notes, Watson in the books really isn\\\'t much of a Watson. Perhaps this is more of a Spock vs. TheMcCoy dichotomy... Thoughts?
