Behind every powerful man (or woman, occasionally), there is a secretary, assistant, or aide to keep his schedule and organize the paperwork. This character is usually calm and meticulous, is likely to wear a crisply pressed suit, and may add a pair of dashing glasses. In other words, they're a perfect excuse to throw in a little Fanservice. Because Most Writers Are Male, this tends to take the form of the Sexy Secretary, but sometimes (especially in works that lean towards a female audience), it'll be an attractive guy: the Right-Hand Hottie. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })If the boss is also a hot guy, there's opportunity for Ho Yay via Subordinate Excuse, for additional Mr. Fanservice value. Despite the name, this doesn't need to be The Dragon, even if Evil Is Sexy comes into play. Spear Counterpart to the Sexy Secretary. If they are more than fanservice they function as The Face.

In the Hetalia Bloodbath 2010 England has a very Tall, Dark, and Handsome secretary named Maurizio, temporarily dubbed "Workbitch Bartholomew by fans" until his name was revealed. And in the "Can't Escape from Italy" strips/episodes, England had another Tall, Dark, and Handsome aidé, a spy named Howard. Fans speculate that, since he and Maurizio look alike, he may be Howard's relative (possibly his grandson) |

K: Red King's right hand, Izumo Kusanagi, The Smart Guy, sophisticated, with Cool Shades and just enough attitude to fit well with HOMRA, in contrast to the Blue King's right hand, Seri Awashima, the series's infamous lone Ms. Fanservice in the Cast Full of Pretty Boys. The two of them actually meet and share information, even while their Clans are still enemies. They also have quite a bit of Ship Tease. But for their separate Clans, they tend to be the logical ones who arrange all of the details of the big plans, and ensure that they are enacted smoothly. | |

Mad Men Season 3: Lane Pryce's secretary right hand, John Hooker, is one of these even within the universe: as office manager at Sterling Cooper upon its takeover by Putnam, Powell, and Lowe, he replaces Joan...and is thus in charge of the secretarial pool. The secretaries (besides Joan who hates him for personal reasons and disdains him for professional ones, and Peggy who doesn't think too much of him) all swoon over his good looks and sexy British accent. | |

Torchwood: Ianto Jones. Although his boss/boyfriend is a greater source of Fanservice than he is, recurring character Captain John Hart refers to Ianto as "Eye Candy", apparently in the belief that that's why he's kept around. In the first episode, Jack introduces Ianto as the guy a) who handles clean-up, b) gets the team from place to place, and c) "looks good in a suit." So yeah, John wasn't too far off. |

Descendants of Darkness: Grouchy old man Chief Konoe has hot secretary Seiichiro Tatsumi. Tatsumi actually replaced Konoe in the main cast. In his original appearance, he was a featureless megane-type labelled 'secretary.' Then he got a little development, was young and gorgeous, and started getting all the scolding-boss scenes, with increasing levels of terrifying. Once it was established he completely controlled all the money and had history with Tsuzuki, Konoe was pretty much entirely relegated to background and being that guy who's actually aware of the Ancient Conspiracy. Whatever it was. With the result that the audience will probably never know what Sagdanasu was talking about way back in The Devil's Trill when he listed all the secrets he'd dug out of Tsuzuki's mind and said, "I even know about you, Konoe!" |
