    A Friendly Debate by

    Fandom: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton - Fandom

    15 Jan 2026

    Summary

    A slow-burn canon twist starting from the first time Colin notices Debling noticing Penelope, setting off a lot of feelings he realizes were always trying to dig their way out of his denial. Pen is courting with the eye to marry well and keep her career, Colin is in love so big it is only dwarfed by the accompanying trouble, and Debling is not the only rival suitor. Lots of inclusion of Featherington and Bridgerton family members as the spectacle becomes a debacle with the goal of a wedding. WIP, not always that serious, and sometimes smutty/angsty.

    Summary

    From the moment of their accidental meeting as young children through the trauma of hurt and loss, the heartbreak of adolescence, and the confusion of young adulthood, Colin and Penelope's connection anchors them both.

    This story aims for hurt and comfort in equal measure as it follows the "platonic best friends" (really, though?) as they grow up, with time jumps between each chapter as we see them navigate their lives together. Their story is one of true friends to lovers, where lines blur and it's hard to see where friendship ends and love begins, because perhaps they've been together all along.

    *CW: This is NOT a dark fic, but does contain mature themes, specifically a child abuse storyline.*

    She was startled and looked up into his eyes for a moment, and then started giggling. It was the most beautiful sound he had ever heard. It sounded like his mom’s wind chimes on the back porch, or the bells on the ice cream truck when it rounded the corner… but even more magical. He giggled back at her.

    “I’m Colin,” he said with a smile that he didn’t even have to try to make so big.

    “Penelope,” said the girl with the giggle that was now his favorite song.

    Summary

    As World War Two breaks out Penelope and Eloise are determined that they will play an active role in the war effort. As the girls navigate their way through the new found freedoms the war brings to women, the Bridgerton brothers are all serving in some capacity. Penelope has been carrying a torch for Colin for years hiding her feelings from everyone especially Colin himself. How will Penelope cope with the man she loves being in danger without revealing her feelings, whilst also supporting Eloise as she worries about all three of her brothers.
    As the war progresses Penelope tries to move on and Eloise is horrified to find that her heart is not as impenitrable as she always thought it to be.
    Meanwhile Colin begins to realise that Penelope starting to go out with other men is very disturbing although he is clueless as to why.
