    Summary

    Eight years later.

    "To bid goodbye, is to say, ‘I must put you into God’s hands, since I can no longer hold you in mine.’ A goodbye is a capitulation to forces bigger, stronger than ourselves, than our wills, our desires. It is a surrender, of someone dear, to the questionable mercies of the world. One quite literally gives them up.” She sipped at her wine. “Goodbyes are shattering, and devastating, and holy. And life is full of them. Do not try to make them easy. Far better to make them worthwhile."

    It takes just one minute for Marianne to notice the blonde woman across the room.

    Even through the crowd, she can see the way the sun rays cascade through the skylight in the ceiling painting her skin soft and fair, while her eyes sparkle brilliantly like jades. Her hair is pulled back into a low and tidy bun with short haphazard ends that bounce when she moves.

    She’s staring at one of the paintings on the wall. Her gaze is pointed, sad almost and Marianne finds herself staring for too long. But before she can turn away, the woman seems to notice her just as quickly. Her gaze shifts and settles directly onto Marianne. It’s full of fire and it pierces right through her and suddenly her heart is beating in her throat.

    "I like being on my own."

    "Only, you might not be on your own."

    Ominous! It got Marianne leaning in despite herself. "What do you mean?"

    "There's a ghost. Everyone knows. They call her The Lady in White. A poltergeist."

    It's 2019 and Marianne arrives at a remote house for a few weeks of peace and quiet. Héloïse has been trying to find some peace a lot longer.

    Summary

    Eight years after they parted ways, Héloïse and Marianne find each other in Milan.

    Caught in a sunbeam, Héloïse was a stern black column in the doorway, dressed head-to-toe for mourning. Her hair, nun-like, was hidden behind a neat little waterfall of lace.

    Summary

    I took the liberty of expanding on one sentence in Anne and Ann's letter to Anne's Aunt Anne (haha), dated 22 July 1834, written while on their honeymoon in Switzerland and France.
    Ann wrote, "At Mottets we slept between the cows and the hayloft"... and I adapted it.

    Summary

    “Have you done this before?”

    “No,” she had said. “Of course not.”

    But can that be right? Ann soon comes to wonder. Can one get to be as clever with tongue and finger as Anne is without a little practice?

    Ann moves into Shibden and soon comes to realise that she is not the first woman to have been brought across the threshold by Anne Lister.

    Summary

    Okay so I'm on twitter and I see someone post one of Sophie Rundle's character with a Suranne Jone's character and it hit me. What if, Gemma is so distraught that Tom has left, she decides to move to Sheffield, where she meets single mom Steph at one of her parties...

    And I tagged Gentleman Jack because I assume we all love Suranne and Sophie related ideas and thought the Gentleman Jack fandom would love it as well.

    It's a "quick" little ficlet and I hope you enjoy it.

    Summary

    Women's Royal Naval Service veterans Anne Lister and Ann Walker meet unexpectedly two years after the war.
    —————

    “I know we’ve met. During the war…”

    Ann knows that Lister will remember in a minute. Just for this moment, Ann is the only one with the clear memory of that sleety day, the shame, the furious tongue-lashing. And all that preceded it.

    Taking a shaky breath, Ann says, “You were my commanding officer at Scapa Flow.”
