I'd love to see a crossover where Tyrion Lannister and Mark Vorkosigan meet. Because they have a surprising amount in common - snarky, annoyingly perfect older brothers, messed up father (figure)/son relationship. Alas, I'll probably not be the one writing it, cause the only thing I've got - apart from a vague idea of Westeros being on an extremely lost colony world (or maybe a Haut experiment gone so very wrong) is the sentence "That's your annoyingly perfect big brother?!"

I'm currently reading a biography of the Kennedy family, and JFK (the American president in the 1960's) fits the same exact profile! I wonder if Bujold did that mirroring consciously?

Yeah, cause Miles is in fact not that bad on the surface -- but it when you have to interact with him for a long period that you want to strangle him.
