Disclaimer: I may march over the hills and far away alongside Richard Sharpe, but Bernard Cornwell, the lucky, lucky man, owns the rogue, not me.
Summary: If there was anything Girdwood excelled at, it was appearances.
Warnings: Highlight to read: 1 instance of a slur against the Irish.
Notes: Written for the seans_50 January Film Challenge using Sharpe's Regiment as inspiration. Also written for the "Conspiracy" challenge prompt (#11) at sharpe_thinking and for helena_s_renn, as an extremely late Halloween treat I owe her for "knocking" on my virtual!door, er, in 2008. D'oh!

(There. Girdwood curled his fingers, guiding the ends of his pride and joy into its customary curls...)
