    Summary

    Mary has hayfever. Mrs Bennet is a menace. Tom Hayward tries his best to help. He gets it right most of the time.

    An excuse to write some post-engagement fluff and angst for our two favourite fictional regency couple.

    (Title taken from Wordsworth poem Book Fourth [Summer Vacation], "she" refers to a tree swaying in the wind but it felt like an apt way to refer to a woman suffering from hayfever so I went with it.)

    Summary

    It is a truth universally knowledged that a man who lives his life through self-indugence alone, might get induced into deathly boredom. At least, that is what Mr. William Ryder realizes after spending his days at Rome drinking wine, painting and reading poetry while looking at Rome's sunsets, without being able to completely forget about Mary Bennet's hurtful (yet extremely polite and full of good wishes) rejection of his proposal.
    After completing a full month at the city without making any new acquaintance (his Italian was not as fluent as he had predicted) and trying to escape Ms. Caroline Bingley undesired glances from across the ballrooms, he decides that it might be a better idea to return to England, establish his permanent residence in London and accept defeat.
    That is, until something greater changes his fate.
