    Summary

    the one time in actual ages that alicent hightower indulges herself in a one-night stand ends up being with a woman who shows up at the other side of the table as opposing counsel in the biggest case of her career.

    the universe has a fucking terrible sense of humour.

    Summary

    That’s the problem with newly-sharpened pencils. “Then what?” They’re always a second away from needing a new sharpen, a second away from—

    “I mean, I need you to be my date.”

    —breaking. Alicent presses too hard, then, and the lead falls flat with a snapping noise. “What?”

    FEATURING: a very fake relationship, a very real wedding, a play with five acts, and two people who are definitely not in love.

    Summary

    “Eloise,”

    When Cressida doesn’t hear an answer, she scrunches up her nose, runs her hands down her sides and over the dress looking self-conscious, “I know it’s too much, please don’t say anything.” Cressida looks back towards the hotel where her parents are waiting on Benedict to finish their drinks, “But you know how they are, how they acted—”

    “Cressida, you look,” She sounds as breathless as she feels, “heavenly.”

    “Oh,” Cressida breathes and she seems shy. After a few seconds, she looks over her shoulder again and Eloise sees her parents marching over to them leisurely, drinks in hand, “You aren’t going to drive off course right?”

    Eloise watches her wring her hands, takes a step closer and covers them with hers, “No.” She looks over Cressida’s shoulders, chalks up the butterflies she feels to the nerves of having to, essentially, chaperone Cressida with her parents. She looks into Cressida’s blue eyes, “It’ll be okay. Try to enjoy some of it, at least.”
    Eloise smiles encouragingly at her and nods, lets go of Cressida just before her parents get there.

    And then she’s Eloise the excursion guide, boat driver, hotel worker and Cressida Cowper’s chaperone.

    Summary

    Eloise Bridgerton is nothing if not a dedicated student and Cressida Cowper’s hands prove to be the best, albeit slightly infuriating, topic of study.

    Summary

    The Bridgertons have long been known to be ardent patrons of the performing arts -- something that Eloise Bridgerton has not yet taken advantage of...until now as she comes to terms with her near social ruin at the end of the 1814 season. She simply wants to escape the watchful eyes of the ton and make something of herself. She finds herself drawn to one Cressida Cowper, who she has not yet had the pleasure of meeting - not formally at least.

    Cressida, though she is Lord Cowper's stepdaughter (begrudgingly so), is also fond of the arts. But she is, to the disdain of many, an actress.

    or--

    The forbidden relationship actress!Cressida/writer!Eloise au nobody asked for.
