    Colin to Pen
    9 Dec
    [07:03]

    Colin: I need a favour
    Colin: also hi
    Colin: good morning

    The phone vibrates against the bathroom counter, and Penelope hates the way her heart does this little flip in her chest at the sight of his name flickering at the top of her notifications. She stills, eyeliner poised in her hand, and contemplates answering. He never texts this early, so it is likely whatever he needs is important.

    But she is running late.

    And, more importantly, she is trying to be better about these sorts of things.

    Summary

    Violet Bridgerton has had enough of her three eldest sons refusing to engage with the marriage mart. She has seen her daughters Daphne and Francesca married in the last four seasons but she wants more grandchildren and she wants them now.

    And so, in the week before the whole family and ton are due to descend on Aubrey Hall for the annual Hearts and Flowers Ball, Lady Violet has invited a select group of eligible ladies to the Hall to participate in a series of challenges where the ultimate prize is up for grabs: marriage to one of the three oldest Bridgerton brothers. Penelope Featherington is on her fourth year on the mart with no prospects.

    (Regency AU -
    multichap fic I will correct the chapter count on update.
    Whistledown exists, Colin didn’t make any foolish declarations in the Featherington gardens, Penelope and Eloise are grand. Prudence is still unmarried. This started out as a purely crack fic but I accidentally kept adding plot and making myself cry. There is still quite a lot of crack though. If you crave period accuracy, sorry. I researched some bits with fervour and then hugged an anachronism or two for the giggles.
    I’m trying to be consistent, but I make the rules and my brain is wonky).

    Summary

    Penelope knows how many times she has shared tea with Colin. She knows the number of times they have danced, knows how many times he touched her before they were engaged, how many letters they have written, how many crystal goblets they received as wedding gifts.

    She did not know he knew how many sugars she takes in her tea.

    That is something for which she did not account.
