    “Fight for that day you have a kid of your own, and you give her the life that you never had. For the day you get so angry because she invites some boy over, and she won’t keep the door open three inches.”

    Summary

    “Smiles and tears are so alike with me, they are neither of them confined to any particular feelings: I often cry when I am happy, and smile when I am sad.”
    ― Anne Brontë, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
     

    And because god hates her and she was born under an unlucky star, her day goes from bad to worse. Sousa uses this opportunity to approach them, giving Mack a friendly pat on the back before his gaze shifts to her burned hand, brown eyes filled with worry.

    “Are you okay?” his hand twitches by his side, struggling to stay in its place and not reach for her. 

    “Yeah, didn’t you hear? I’m lucky you are such a nerd.” Jemma groans beside her, annoyed at Daisy’s incredible gift for twisting words for her own convenience.

    (aka: the professors au where Daisy is a certified mess and Daniel is just trying to get her attention)

    Summary

    “We shall not be able to finish the play for another two weeks, I suppose,” Emma says as they start back towards Hartfield. “So I shall not know what becomes of this plot to kill Claudio until then.”

    “You will wait in suspense, I am sure.”

    “I do like this play much better than some of the other ones I have read. And I know you will find it egregious for me to say so, as I know you think them brilliant, but the tragedies are not nearly as high in my esteem. I do not like anything too horrid.”

    “Well,” Knightley says cheekily. “I did think a play with a matchmaking plot would be more to your liking.”

    ---

    Or, in which Mr. and Mrs. Knightley get a little distracted while apple-picking and discuss Shakespeare.

    Summary

    They keep forgetting.

    They aren't together anymore, but every once in a while, the muscle memory of being a couple is too much and they fall back into old patterns, and for a second everything is okay.

    (it's not though).
