Summary
The night Penelope is asked the most important question of her life, she is wearing a hot pink feather boa. With sparkles, and a sparkly pink penis tiara to match. Naturally.
The question is not will you marry me, which should have been the most important question of her life (a fact of which she is perfectly aware, thank you very much). It is not do you, Penelope Featherington, take Alfred Debling to be your lawfully wedded husband, because she has a few days left before their officiant asks her that particular question.
“I’m sorry,” Penelope says. “What did you say?”
She’d heard him, but she’s drunk in a hot pink feather boa and a penis crown and surely Colin Bridgerton cannot be asking her about regrets.

Summary
Colin Bridgerton has lost his wife.
Well. Not so much lost her as he has misplaced her.
It is not the mask. When Penelope teases him for this later, Colin is going to make it very clear that it is no fault of the mask. It is the bloody wig she had put on in an effort to properly disguise herself from the ton. He has spent his entire adult life seeking out red hair, and now he keeps forgetting to look for blonde. It has always been red, the red haired girl across the street, the one he had fallen in love with so devotedly that it still feels like they exist in their own world every time they speak.

Summary
To Colin, the narrative is clear. The sweet sidekick best friend is going to end up with the main character, everyone will cheer, they'll all worship at the altar of a series well done and then beg their mum to let them start series five instead of going to bed. She'll almost immediately cave, allowing quick toilet breaks and re-fluffing of pillows (maybe even an exchange of blankets) before they all settle back into the cosy pile that is their Friday nights.
But here is the problem, and it's a problem that they have never had before when watching a film or show together: Penelope Featherington disagrees with him.
Disagrees. With him.
She seems irked every time he brings up the couple's very clear soulmatism, which is getting on Colin's nerves because he's right, and no matter what show they're watching, Penelope has always agreed before.
So what's different this time?

Summary
The story goes like this: Boy wants girl. Boy fucks girl. Boy and girl live happily ever after.
If they can’t do the boy fucks girl part, what does that mean for the happily ever after?
--
Or, Colin's always been too big. Penelope's always been too tight. Neither of them wanted their brand-new relationship to be this complicated.

Summary
“I wouldn’t worry too much about these labels that humans give you,” said Lady Danbury as if she were reading Penelope's mind. “They’re based on human relationships. Life, love, everything is different for us than it is for them. Because we aren’t human, are we?”
“No, we’re not.” And thank goodness for that. Being a human seemed exhausting to Penelope.
“All three of those words mean exactly what you told me: love. Love is the most important thing we have. Love is one of the few things we stuffed animals can choose for ourselves. You should always hold onto love, Penelope. As tight as you can. Whatever form that love takes, and what you do with that love, is up to you.”
“Well, yes,” said Penelope, still a bit confused. Lady Danbury was smart, but she didn’t always make sense. Besides, they were getting off track from what she really wanted to know. “But is one of those words best? Best friends, maybe? None of the others have the word best in them, so I thought…”
OR
Colin and Penelope are sock monkeys, and they are in love.

Bookmarker's Notes
One of the coolest, most thoughtful and unique fics I’ve had the pleasure to read in this and any fandom. This is something special in a way that goes beyond just Polin— it feels special in a way that is more of an ode to storytelling itself. What a gift. I shared it with tons of people outside the fandom and they all adored it.

Summary
“Boat kink is a new one for me, I must say.”
“I wouldn’t say kink,” she pauses, chewing on the thought. “I haven’t even tried it yet. Special interest, maybe.”
“Fine, special interest boat sex, then. I think we can make that happen.”

I absolutely adore this characterization of their relationship. It is a unique breath of wonderful fresh air, its own corner of the Polin dynamic that I am fully enamored by. I can’t explain it, but this scratches my brain something fierce. I am so in love with the voices for both of them, the way the dynamic is, and the easy physicality and playfulness of this fic. Truly will not forget how crisp and fresh this story was.

“You wouldn’t dream of courting me, yet here you are. Climbing up the window of my chamber past midnight, undressing me and spreading me wide on my bed, taking me again and again until I am full of your seed.”

This has great dialogue and beautiful descriptive language. Hot, smart, and sharp in every way. Really fun read. (Colin’s yearning gave me a tummy ache.)

Colin Bridgerton’s dick was too big.
It had always been a problem. Until it wasn’t.
