    Summary

    For the merest second, before Master Jinshi looks up, he appears almost as a normal man. Then she squints her eyes as his sparkling smile blooms, as his lashes sweep artfully down, as his hair seems to glow deep indigo.

    Maomao winces. She wishes, not for the first time, that she could tell him to turn it off.

    Summary

    When Jaskier was four, he slipped his mother’s watch and went to the field to gather a bouquet of dandelions. He climbed back into the yard, as stealthy as a child really cared to be, and crept over to the barn. In the barn, lived a secret. (The man he thought his father said the secret was a monster, a plague. His mother said the secret was his sister.)

    OR

    Jaskier comes from a far humbler background, and would really like to know why Yennefer never came back for her youngest brother.

    Summary

    "Anthony kept reassuring himself that there was a simple explanation for why he felt like he was perpetually on the back foot with Miss Sharma—it was because she had caught him off guard.  Her very presence in that park on the morning they first met, a solitary female, riding astride, was unexpected—scandalous, even.  When paired with her strong-willed nature and obvious, instant distrust of Anthony—distrust that he had almost immediately, and rather unfortunately, validated with his loose-lipped ramblings on the terrace at the Conservatory Ball—well, he had been put off balance, and had yet to fully recover."

    This story will tackle the questions we (or at least I) have been pondering for months. What if Benedict was not completely oblivious to what was going on between Kate and Anthony in Kent? What if Daphne shared her suspicions with someone? What if Mr. Dorset was invited to Aubrey Hall with the rest of the ton? What if Season 2 depicted a different love triangle, one that did not pit two sisters against one another?

    * Canon divergence beginning after the bee scene.
