Oh yay. :) However, Charles's not-so worse will never be up to par with what Clipper wants. And especially not what Connor wants. The sad thing is, with the exception of the way that Charles and Connor's marriage came about (murder wasn't exactly condoned and all), society would probably approve of the way Charles has been treating his wife.
But yep! :D Charles is ever the same Charles, a monster to those he sees as not worth his time or his enemies, really great to the people he likes (hence his friendship with James). Matthew falls in-between (he doesn't approve of the man's greed and gets annoyed at how obnoxious he can be), but he doesn't dislike him like he did Hickey (manners and gentlemanly behavior are quite important to him).
And Connor is in transition from the first camp to the second camp. Whereas, before, he was hated foe, then he was enemy captive and now, Charles is thinking of him more and more as the mother of his future child.
Matthew and Clipper...lol, I laugh just thinking about it. Water and oil. But Matthew will be professional since he'll get paid for it, and Clipper will try his best to tolerate the man for Connor's sake. Not for too long though. Matthew only calls about once a week to check on Connor's status.
Good question about Haytham. ...I'll have to chew on that a bit. :)
He'll be at the coronation ceremony though, which is in about a week, fic-time. We should find out at that time. Charles will probably start making preparations for that soon.
