Summary
There had been such a long pause after he’d asked her if she was relieved to be marrying Gregory. It had panicked him, that pause, scattered his thoughts like a flock of startled gulls. Bess dipped her chin, denying him her eyes, and he’d filled her silence with praise of his son, fumbling through Gregory’s merits as wretchedly as he’d proffered his own to Wolsey’s daughter. Thomas Cromwell marries Bess Seymour. (Set directly after the misunderstanding in the garden.)

Summary
“Is this where you ravish me?”
It was just the sort of remark Kile knew Princess Farilane would appreciate. A disarming conversational parry combined with irresistible humour. She huffed out a silent laugh and he felt the muscles in her back relax against his own.
“Maybe I should,” she told him. “It would serve you right.” -

Summary
Five times Thomas Cromwell and Jane Rochford touch, and one time they go further than that.
(The implied rape/non-con is from references Jane makes in the show about George's behavior towards her. Jane deserves some love.)

Summary
A woman wakes up in a boat on the Thames, her only memory the words "Shakespeare's Birthday" and a name and address: "Thomas Cromwell, Austin Friars." With everything about her, from her face to her clothing to her language being strange in the London of April 1533, she soon poses a mystery to the increasingly powerful member of Henry VIII's privy council and his household. Especially intrigued is Master Cromwell's nephew, Richard. Thomas Cromwell is renowned for his memory, but can he help her recover hers?

Summary
She could try to assemble these bits of knowledge into a father, but she would fail. It is like building a man out of spare parts: a lock of hair here, a patch of skin there. You can make a serviceable figure. It can walk around and sit and speak with you. But when you try to put its heart in, all you can find is a brick wall.
She went to England to see her father while he lived, in case the rebels killed him. She left thinking, I have seen all I will see of him, even if he lives another fifty years.
[28 July 1540. Five people who got on with their day, and one who didn’t.]
