Then he picked up the wrong audio guide.

Summary
Benedict Bridgerton considered himself a reasonably progressive addition to the English department at Mayfair University. Thirty-four years old, tenured earlier than expected, and dangerously fond of literature that unsettled people, Benedict had cultivated a reputation among students as the “hot professor,” which he pretended not to know about and absolutely knew about-and loved.
He had, until recently, been perfectly content.
And then Sophie Baek had become his graduate assistant.Bookmarked by flickerandfail (patternsinrepeat)

Summary
“Sorry I’m late,” a voice said, bright, apologetic, devastatingly familiar.
His spine went rigid.
Sophie Baek stood at the front of the lecture hall clutching a canvas tote and a stack of folders, her hair pulled back, her smile a little uncertain as she scanned the room.
Then her eyes met his.
The air left his lungs.
Oh.
Oh no.
For a heartbeat, neither of them moved. Benedict watched recognition crash over her face in real time, surprise, disbelief, something like delight quickly buried under professional panic.
“Professor Bridgerton,” Agatha Danbury, lead department head said cheerfully from the side, oblivious to the emotional carnage. “Apologies for interrupting before starting class, this is Sophie Baek, your new graduate teaching assistant.”

Summary
"What is it truly to admire a woman?
To look at her and feel inspiration?
To delight in her beauty
so much so that all your defenses crumble
that you would willingly take on
Any pain
Any burden
For Her.
To honour Her being
with your deeds
and words."Benedict Bridgerton
SUMMARY
Benedict arrives at Number Five one day and finds Sophie in the library. Under the curtains.
EXCERPT
‘At least they have one day. That’s more than most could ask for. Their coupling is too… disruptive.’ She sounds sad. ‘And just knowing that your lover thinks of you the same, that their two heartbeats are of one rhythm despite their distance, makes the waiting somewhat more tolerable, don’t you think?’
‘He should have swam over.’ Benedict declares.
She smiles at him as if he is so very silly indeed.

Summary
"I don't pay an interpreter to be a ghostwriter," Sophie said.
"I translated the version of you who wasn't panicking," he replied calmly.On a high-stakes European press tour, actress Sophie Baek needs a literal parrot. Instead, she gets Ben Ledger: fluent in six languages, infuriatingly perceptive, and secretly hiding a Bridgerton inheritance. When he starts translating her hidden intent rather than her PR-scripted lies, their claustrophobic proximity combusts. She is determined to strip away his bohemian disguise, while he is determined to unravel the fiercely guarded woman beneath the fame.

Summary
Sophie Baek does not know how to be a guest, and Benedict Bridgerton is determined to teach her.
Hidden away at My Cottage, they navigate a dangerous domestic proximity, testing the boundaries of class and propriety. Tension builds through a series of small surrenders: a tangled kite string binding their wrists, fractured French vowels ghosting over parted lips, and his hand covering hers to guide a brush to canvas. He is an artist who has remembered how to see, and she is a maid tired of hiding in the dark. But London is calling, and their stolen nights are dwindling before society reasserts its rules.

I have been waiting to write for these two forever and ever. Throw out some suggestions in the comments for more fluffy smutty scenes - I am sticking with canon and in between scenes. Let me know what you want to see.
A series of scenes with Benedict and Sophie - married life, engagement, babies, etc.
May go out of order as the ideas hit me. Enjoy!

Summary
Benedict and Sophie chose the road less traveled, and what if that had all played out differently? An angstier rewrite from 4x06 on where Benedict and Sophie chose to leave together.
”And your family?” She asked, lifting her head again to see his face, to look into his eyes, ready to draw fortitude from the hurt she knew she would see. “I have never before seen such mutual love. I could not live with myself if I tore you away from them.”
”I could not live with them if they tore me away from you,” he answered sharply. One hand slid from her back to come and rest low on her belly. “And I will not be separated from my child.”

Summary
"I want to wear a uniform. I want to be called something I'm not. I want you to be strict with me. And I want to say 'Yes, Sir.'"
Sophie Baek has spent over a decade saying "yes" to people who never asked if she meant it. To Araminta. To entitled guests at charity galas. To every rich person who mistook her existence for the service industry. Tonight, she's asking Benedict to let her say it on purpose in a room she chose, and with a word that can stop it.
Benedict is terrified he'll be good at it. Sophie is reclaiming it. They're both about to learn that the most honest thing you can give someone is your carefully negotiated surrender.
