Summary
Five years after the events of Pride and Prejudice, Kitty Bennet, now the sole remaining unmarried sister at Longbourn, finds herself adrift. With Mrs. Bennet gone and Mr. Bennet's grief hardening him, Longbourn feels increasingly suffocating. Seeking solace and a chance to rediscover herself, Kitty accepts Elizabeth's invitation to spend the London season with the Darcy family. There, she unexpectedly rekindles a friendship with Colonel Fitzwilliam, a man forever changed by his experiences on the Peninsula. As they navigate their evolving relationship, Kitty must learn to embrace independence and find her own path in life, while Colonel Fitzwilliam grapples with the emotional scars of war.

Summary
Mary Bennet agrees to spend the London season with the newly married Darcys. She discovers that she would still infinitely prefer a book. But hiding in the library at balls and parties is not the solution, as an odd young man keeps turning up there.
“'Miss Bennet', she says. I did not know my Conscience would have such an ordinary name.”
“I am not your conscience, sir,” Mary said, feeling made fun of and annoyed to be shaken out of her reverie for nonsense. “And whimsicality such as this, whilst charming in a child, is not so appealing in a grown man.”
“Wait,” he said. “Do wait. I am so used to speaking in that silly way with silly young women that I quite forgot myself. Please stay and talk a little more.”
(from the prompt "Mary's season in London. Her moralising is a trial to her sisters but in the end she outshines them all.")
