    Summary

    Amari Mari has a habit of dressing men down, metaphorically speaking, and dressing up, literally speaking. She doesn’t concern herself with hobbies.

    Dr. Henry Loomis does not care for anything that isn’t dinosaurs, although he has spent a fair bit of time at the gym, for wellness purposes. One could call that a hobby.

    Somehow, their paths cross. Multiple times.

    OR: Amari may be a bit of a morosexual. Henry may have an interest beyond dinosaurs.

    Summary

    “I just want to say I’m sorry. I was just… I got carried away. I sometimes can’t-.” He cut himself off. “Can I help you with anything? You seem…? More tightly wound than usual?”
    “You can’t help! Not unless you can find me a date for an engagement party in three days time!”
    Anthony’s head jerked back in surprise. “What?”
    “Forget it.” She ducked around him, holding her hand out for a passing cab.
    “No, I can… I can be your date.” Anthony said, waving to the cab driver as he pulled up. “Just a second mate.”
    “We don’t need a second.” Kate said to the driver. She turned to Anthony, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Oh, yeah. Great, you’ll be my date will you?”
    “I will. I’m an amazing date.”

    Summary

    On the weekend of Simon Basset’s and Daphne Bridgerton’s wedding, Anthony Bridgerton and Kathani Sharma try to finally get what they both need after years of pursuing what they thought they wanted.

    Or, in Eloise's words:
    “Anthony, Daphne and Simon are getting married. That story, while interesting, has a predictable ending. You, on the other hand, are about to see your own personal kryptonite for the first time in ages. A woman who makes you so unhinged that you, Lord Borington, become completely unpredictable. Now, that’s entertainment.”

    A story in two timelines. (Modern AU)

    Summary

    “Can you read latin? What does this mean?” he asked, taking the stone with his other hand and bringing it close to her face, she seemed distrustful of him, but she also obliged him, probably because she too wanted to run away from the consequences of their present reality.
    “It means… Take one regret back.” She whispered, saddened again, “I would have been honest with my family.” She mumbled, her voice dripping with guilt.
    “I would have never courted Miss Edwina.” He confessed, voice choked with honesty and desperation, her big eyes went to his and she seemed taken aback. As she opened her mouth to question him, the ground started to move and things around them startled falling from the shelves. Anthony moved closer to Kate and gathered her in his arms, trying to protect her and before he could ask her if she felt like something changed, he blinked and the earth stopped moving, but most importantly, he wasn’t in a closet on his wedding day anymore.
    He was at the Queen’s ball, at the start of the season.

    Summary

    The psychic shuffled the cards and then placed them on the table in an arch and he took one and turned it around.
    “Huh,” said the psychic, “The fool.” Everyone around him started laughing, even Kate. She could tell the tip of Anthony’s ears went red and she found him endearing, as usual. “Now stop, that’s not literal. It means he met the love of his life already, probably when he was young. It also means he needs to take a risk.” She continued, everyone went silent and Anthony nodded before he went back to where everyone was standing.
    “Draw a card, sweetheart.” Told the psychic to Kate with a kind smile, after having read everyone else's fate and Kate did. “What would you know, the fool.” She continued with a smirk, she heard collective gasps and the eyes of the psychic moved behind Kate’s shoulder, she didn’t need to look to know they were in Anthony. “Did you guys meet when you were young?”

    Summary

    “Based on our research, we think bringing in a co-anchor might solve some of our problems.”

    When he was a child, Anthony long-admired his father’s career. Edmund had been a wunderkind, poised for greatness from the moment he was born. His illustrious penchant for finding the stories no one else was telling made him one of the most sought-after young reporters, and it wasn’t long before he’d climbed the ranks and was named primetime anchor at BRGT, New York City’s #1 rated local news station, and the youngest one ever, at that. Anthony was just five-years-old when his father took the seat, and it was that day, that he too decided, he would be a journalist just like his dad.

    or,

    Anthony is a prolific news anchor in need of an image rehab, thus enters Kate Sharma.

    Summary

    “I'm sorry, but aren't you Kate Sharma?” he asked, matching her face against the picture from the call a few hours prior. Within seconds her eyes narrowed and the smile immediately vanished from her lips.

    “Anthony Bridgerton?”

    “What a small world,” he tried, but she only gave him a curt nod.

    “Yes indeed.”

    Her tone was just as icy as during their negotiations, and Anthony wondered once more what triggered her animosity.

    OR

    Kate and Anthony first meet during contract negotiations before meeting for a second time at the theatre, where they are given seats next to each other. Over the course of several months, several operas and operettas, a string of work calls and endless pages of legal documents, Anthony falls head over heels for her, despite the fact that she initially seems to dislike him.

    But asking out the opposing counsel is not exactly the thing you do, especially when said opposing counsel might accuse you of unethical behaviour…

    OR

    The story of how Anthony is secretly pining for Kate - opposing counsel and coincidental seat buddy at the opera - for months while (for reasons unknown) she seems to hate his guts.

    “Mary,” she said sternly, not looking away from where Anthony had frozen completely. “Level with me here. Is there the slightest possibility that your father - and be very honest with me right now - that your father didn’t know that we were coming?”

    Summary

    Anthony could not change his actions from before, though he wished desperately that he could.

    “I have no means of going back to before, Miss Sharma,” he said, “But perhaps, at least while we are here in these woods, we can try again. Start over, from the beginning.” She looked at him, confused, and he continued with a teasing grin, “You are simply a lady taking a morning ride. I am a handsome gentleman who has crossed your path.”

    At that, Kate let out an amused scoff and Anthony’s grin widened.

    “Spend the night with me. One night, no strings. If it’s bad, we never speak of it again” he says, before smiling wickedly, “But it won’t be.”

    “You’re that confident?” she asks, the words out of her mouth before she can stop them.

    He merely quirks his eyebrows in response.

    Summary

    He was, in the way that Anthony Bridgerton could not help but be, slightly concerned with himself. He had never, in his entire life, fallen as hard or as swiftly as this. He had fancied girls and chased for their undivided attention, yes - he had seen women, been bowled over with attraction to him and then been beside himself with the need to bury himself in her as soon as he was able - he had even loved, or...what he had believed was love, he supposed; he had felt that undeniable combination of passion and adoration that had him willing to risk every other thing that he cared about to keep it.

    But Kate - to him, this evening - Kate seemed like some unholy trinity of all three that he was hurtling towards at a pace that should scare him.

    --

    A sequel of sorts to operation: barista (snitches get stitches): as Anthony and Kate begin to grow closer, we can put to bed once and for all who won the bet.
