I've only read the first few books and seen about half of S1, but I believe that's Lafayette, a.k.a. the only character I didn't want to punch in the face.

Spoiler: [Spoiler (click to open)]He gets killed off at the beginning of the second book, but I guess the TV writers realized that having a non-punchworthy character around was a good idea so he survives and has a more prominent role.

It's the eyelashes that get my attention!

I've never seen the show either.

He is literally THE best thing in the entire show. Sadly, he's not getting much of a storyline for himself this season. But damn he is beautifully genderqueer in every scene he's in and just effing fabulous. Also, you want to, like, cuddle him in blankets and put a force shield around him all the time - i.e. perhaps it's a good thing he doesn't have a him-centric storyline this season because the poor dude is getting a bit of a break from all of the trauma.
