Summary
This is a collection of gap-fillers that fill out scenes that we didn't get to see on the show but that I think are interesting to explore in more detail. These will all be canon-compliant and Carl-heavy, looking at his relationship with the people around him.

Snowflakes in Her Eyelashes by KatofKanals

Summary
The Bridgertons are all jetting off to the Scottish Highlands for Christmas and Penelope Featherington is coming with them this year. She's a close family friend and gets along famously with each and every member (young and old) with one significant exception-- the third eldest son, Colin Bridgerton. They may have been best friends as children, but now, in their mid and late twenties, they couldn't be further from friends. These days they can't even be in the same room with one another without trading verbal jabs that intensify steadily until someone literally has to pull them apart. After a lot of deliberation, though, Penelope accepts Violet's invitation despite this fact. She figures they'll be staying in a huge house and there will be a crowd of other people to distract herself with. What she can't possibly know, however, is that the storm of the century and a series of unforeseen events are going to make that house and that crowd much, much smaller.

Summary
Penelope and Colin haven't been friends in six years. Not after his cruel words. Not after her personal attack in the aftermath. Hate seems to come easy for the two of them, the simplest alternative to a once-special friendship.
There's nothing Colin loves more than goading Pen into a fight. And if she's going to be a brat about it? Well, then he's going to have to teach her a lesson.
Over, and over, and over again.
AKA the one where lemon desserts keep leading to depravity in the various Bridgerton homes.

Summary
“Hi, sorry, is this where I come if I have… something broken in my flat?”
“Yeah, but-” I’m not the handyman. I’m just waiting for him.
The woman rolled her eyes, “Don’t tell me this is the kind of building where I have to get approval from the rich arsehole who owns it?” Anthony’s stomach dropped as she sighed, tilting her chin a little defiantly. “My sister and I just moved in to 5D and the deadbolt’s fucked. Probably should have been checked before entry.”
“Right, no, for a deadbolt it’s fine.” He ruffled his hair a bit self consciously “I’ll be up in a mo’! I’ll just- I just need to get changed, and I might need to nip out and buy a deadbolt.”OR
Anthony Bridgerton is the handyman of Kate Sharma's building. Except he;s not.
OR
Kate Sharma is not, breaking things around her flat just to call the handyman. She isn’t thank you, Edwina.
OR
Edwina has no idea why Kate would rather moon after the handyman who she knows to be 75 and gout riddled than date her friend Eloise’s brother, Anthony

Summary
Sophia Beckett has been numbered among the Bridgerton family as long as anyone can remember. What started as an arrangement by Earl Richard Gunningworth with Viscount Edmund Bridgerton to get her from breathing room from his wife becomes a lifelong bond of adoption after Richard’s death.
As Sophie grows older, she finds her relationship with the second son, Benedict drawing ever closer and soon a relationship of friendship and honorary siblinghood hints at something more. But when tragedy strikes, Sophie and Benedict must decide if they’re willing to risk all for their happily ever after.
Basically Benedict and Sophie are childhood friends and dorks in love who are just about to get together, then Edmund dies, and everything goes to Hell in a handbasket.

Summary
Stunned by his mother’s words, Benedict looked up into her eyes. “There’s something else.”
She tilted her head. “Oh?”
“We’ve been exchanging anonymous emails since March, and I know it’s her but she doesn’t know it’s me.”
Violet blinked a few times, staring at her son as if he just sprouted feathers. “I’m sorry, what?”Or: the "You've Got Mail" Benophie AU that absolutely no one asked for.

make the friendship bracelets; take the moment and taste it (Bridgerton Modern AU) by darkesky
Fandom Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
10 Jun 2024
Summary
A Modern Bridgerton AU that pretty much follows the canon of the books but makes it more realistic for the modern world (such as, they will not be married two months after meeting each other for the first time, that is literally insane) :) in a perfect world, it will cover all 8 siblings with all 8 relationships, but we will go until the muse gives out on us!

Summary
When he sits back down at the head of the table, he kisses Gregory on the cheek. “Do you want to make a wish too?”
Gregory gurgles, entranced by the flames of the eighteen candles, tears still drying on his reddened cheeks. Gregory rarely cries—a trait that does not run in the family, something the older four make a point to remind Eloise and Francesca—but when he does, he seems to pick the worst moments.
Anthony wraps one hand around Gregory’s tiny fists as a safety precaution, and he reaches across the table, tugging the cake closer to them. He mimes it once before he starts blowing out the candles. Gregory copies him with a joyous coo.
And, mid-laugh after Gregory manages to take out precisely one of the candles, Anthony realizes he does need to make a wish, and he has nothing he wants to wish for. So, he wishes for more of the same.

Benedict & Sophie: Life at My Cottage by osheffields
Fandom Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn

Summary
A little series of one shots of Benedict and Sophie living their married lives at My Cottage, since JQ deprived us of that. Some of them are smutty. Some of them are fluffy. All of them domestic.
Unlike the second epilogue, I promise none of these stories will end up being about Posy lmao.
Some of these come from prompts that were sent in over on my twitter so follow me over there if you'd like to suggest any @osheffields. Or just leave it in the comments. Always looking for ideas!

All’s Well That Ends Well (To End Up With You) by aRegularJo

Summary
Anthony Bridgerton does *not* want to marry Kate Sharma. And Kate Sharma definitely doesn’t have time to date Anthony Bridgerton. But a friends-with-benefits contract? That’s rational; in fact, it’s really just good sense.
Things escalate quickly.
Or:
A modern, deconstructed Bridgerton (mostly) rom-dram. Kate, Anthony, their issues, and their families romp through a season in London.

Summary
How is he supposed to tell her? “Well, you see Sophie, I’m not currently speaking to my family after spending the better part of the last seven years of my life addicted to multiple substances that finally culminated in a near fatal overdose. And said overdose occurred days before the anniversary of my father’s death. So, let’s just say I have recently decided to voluntarily estrange myself from them, all in the hopes that I never have to have any tough conversations ever again. Don’t worry though, I’ve been running away from my problems ever since I was sixteen and my therapist has already repeatedly told me it's a terrible way to manage my stress and personal problems.”
Instead, he lies.
(or: Benedict Bridgerton finally finds himself a stable romantic relationship for the first time in his life, only problem is that he’s technically not supposed to date until he’s been sober for at least a year.)
