    Summary

    There are certain things that Jackson Lamb will show up for. Even if it's just to mess with Standish.

    Lamb and Standish send their grandchild off to her first day of school.

    (This is a ridiculous little AU I wrote to amuse myself and it got out of hand.)

    Summary

    This is my take on several moments that occur between Catherine Standish and Jackson Lamb throughout the decades of working together. I split this up into the Early Years, the Middle Years and Current Years. Each "era" has a vignette for each season - and builds on the past, creating a path for romance along the way. The first era is the three times they almost kissed but didn't and the one time they did. Thank you for reading!! ♥

    Summary

    Effie remembers sleep deprivation to feel partly like this, like how it’s getting harder and harder for her to sleep. Once upon a time, she would have reached for the bottle of sleeping pills in her bedside drawer. She would have swallowed one and waited for a few minutes for the effect to finally hit her. Once upon a time, she would have taken those pills as if they were water.

    But it’s a different time now, and a lot of things have changed. Like the fact that Haymitch Abernathy was sleeping so soundly beside her without the excuse for sex. Sex was, afterall, the very foundation of this thing between them. Effie tried to remember when they had become too comfortable with this set up, when it was definitely okay for one of them to be sneaking up on their bed unannounced, to be entering their room as if they were lovers – which they certainly were not.

    Prompt: could write a FIC where Effie is temporarily blind?

    summary: Her eyelids wouldn’t open. Effie felt sluggish, her brain wouldn’t compute properly… She had a fever, she knew she had a fever… Or maybe it was a chill… Or… Infection. Yes. That was it. She had an infection.

    Summary

    “May I ask you why I was manhandled by your brute friend and thrown in here?” Effie points all around them, at the thick with dust shelves, a small cobweb in the corner of the ceiling, old brooms and mops looking just a tad fresher than the rest of the small room.

    “Well, you should ask him, not me,” Haymitch says, shrugging, deep down knowing it drives her mad.

    “That’s a great piece of advice!” She might be acting a bit more frantic but there’s a fire bubbling up inside, made from lava of fear and heartbreak. “Unfortunately, he is not here and I got you instead.”

    OR

    Haymitch is running out of time to say things he cannot speak up about to Effie, and without the help of his best friend, he might be a completely hopeless case. Chaff’s plan involves a broom closet.

    Summary

    “Bridgerton, old chap, no need to get so worked up. We were just having a bit of fun,” Fife said, waving a hand dismissively as though that would brush away the gravity of their actions.

    “Fun?” Colin’s voice was icy, his hands trembling with the effort to keep himself in check. “You call plying a lady with alcohol without her knowledge ‘fun’? Humiliating her in front of everyone? She is my friend, you miserable cur, and if you think I’ll stand by and let you—”

    He couldn’t finish the sentence. The thought of what might have happened—what could still happen—if Penelope were left in their hands was too much to bear.

    Or, some gentlemen believe it's funny to get Penelope drunk without her consent at a ball and Colin is having none of it even if they're not currently on speaking terms

    Summary

    She was sure beyond sureness that she’d already experienced heartbreak. It had been excruciating and unhurried, drawing out each tear like blood from a dull blade.
    How very foolish she’d been.
    Every ounce of pain she’d ever experienced had been collected and diluted into one harrowing moment as she learned the true nature of heartbreak: swift, staggering, and served with contrition as Colin Bridgerton appeared at her door in the dead of night.
    “Penelope,” he said her name as if it was an apology. “I have an affair of honour as soon as the sun rises.”

    Or: Colin is set to duel in mere hours. How will he and Penelope spend their first (and perhaps last) night together?

    Summary

    Everything that Penelope owns fits into three wooden trunks. Even with all of the yellow and orange dresses she had left behind, it feels odd to think that the summation of her entire life was small enough to fit into three wooden trunks that have been dropped off in the dressing room at her new home.

    She is supposed to exit this room and be someone’s wife, and all she can think is that she cannot breathe with all of her things living inside the trunks. And what kind of wife, anyway, spends her wedding night wondering if her maid had packed the one wooden doll with hair painted red, just like Penelope’s. A doll she has not thought of in years, and yet somehow, its absence presses against her chest until she knows that she will continue to ache until she finds it.

    Summary

    “You are unhappy because you don’t like your dresses,” he says. “Is that what I’m to understand?”
     
    “No,” Penelope says, sounding frustrated. “They look fine on my sisters, it’s–” He feels it before she says it, so when she cuts herself off, he doesn’t need her to continue. It’s easy to understand when she cannot even look at him. He sees now why there had been no excitement when he walked into the room, no joy such as he had come to expect from when Daphne or Francesca or Hyacinth would return from the dressmaker’s with new fashions to show for it.  

    “The flaw is in the dresses,” Colin says firmly. He hesitates for a moment before reaching for her, tilting her chin towards his face so that she is looking into his eyes. “Not within you.”  

    Or, in an effort to give Penelope confidence during the social season, Colin buys her new dresses.
