    Summary

    “Colin already thinks that I have entrapped him- he said so himself… and I cannot bear for an innocent child to get intertwined into his hatred of me. I have lived with parents that despise each other and I cannot bear the thought of me preserving that vicious circle…” Penelope’s voice breaks, but she continues anyway

    “So, I beg of you- Not as Lady Whistledown, but as Penelope, your friend, help me escape.”

    -

    After Colin’s entrapment accusations and a shocking revelation, Penelope decides leaving would be the best for everyone involved.
    No matter how much it breaks her.

    (Also there will be a Penelope and Lady Danbury friendship like in the books- because why the hell would they skip that in the show?)

    Summary

    ​"I would carry you to the very peak of a mountain were it necessary. Now, move that foot and speak no more nonsense."

When an invisible enemy begins to seize control of his body, the artistic and sensitive brother finds himself stripped of his composure. In the wake of sudden illness, the gilded walls of Mayfair fade away, leaving only the raw, unbreakable bond of the Bridgerton brothers. A story of vulnerability, the weight of a brother's love, and the strength found in a family that refuses to let you fall.

    Summary

    Simon Basset swore to his dying father that he would never marry and never sire an heir, but when fate places Penelope Featherington in his arms, he finds that he cannot say NO. This long fic (210K and counting) is the story of how two people with their own hurts, ghosts, and traumas make the most of their circumstances and find happiness.

    The Bridgerton family is featured heavily with lots of domestic fluff and support for the new couple. Simon and Anthony are as close as brothers and work through their father issues together, while Penelope has a sisterly relationship with all of the Bridgerton siblings. Lady Danbury and Lady Violet guide and mentor their adopted children.

    This is a RARE PAIR story with FIVE characters marrying differently from their canon spouses. Canon divergent from episode one. It's a fun ride if you're down for the adventure.

    Summary

    "I would never court Penelope Featherington."

    The sentence was declared by one of the most sought after bachelors, one of the Bridgerton brothers, in fact.
    If one wants to be even more precise, they’d say the third born.

    Precisely, the one and only Colin Bridgerton.

    And it wouldn’t even be much of a scandal for such sentence to be uttered by the male specimen (they do, let’s admit so, judge, compare, laugh about the available gentlebred ladies of the ton), if not for the fact that the above mentioned lady, Penelope Feathering , was right behind the young man, when it was uttered in front of… well, basically the whole ton.

    She was sure then and there: she will never marry and will forever be forced to stay with her mother.

    However the one and only Viscount Anthony Bridgerton would be more than glad to have her as HIS wife instead.
