    Summary

    It’s been two years and three months and the sight of Marianne across a crowded room is still enough to stop him in his tracks.

    As an act of lockdown self-care I wrote a hopeful coda to Normal People. It is set two years after Connell leaves for New York.

    Summary

    “Have you done this before?”

    “No,” she had said. “Of course not.”

    But can that be right? Ann soon comes to wonder. Can one get to be as clever with tongue and finger as Anne is without a little practice?

    Ann moves into Shibden and soon comes to realise that she is not the first woman to have been brought across the threshold by Anne Lister.

    Summary

    They discover Ann likes Anne in her drawers in York. Or rather outside of York, on their way to York, approximately five miles and half an hour into their journey to York. They discover it when Anne is sat across from her, her skirt to her waist, her legs apart, quite wanton. It happens like this…

    Anne and Ann get up to mischief on the carriage ride to York in S01 E04. Inspired by the fact that the Ann(e)s did totally bone in the carriage. Some artistic licence has been taken with geography and distances to ensure there was enough time for porn to happen. All my 1800s underclothing knowledge comes from this very useful post by ellie-valsin on Tumblr, which told me that 1) most people didn’t wear drawers back then and 2) if they did, they were crotchless.

    Summary

    Anne is in a bad temper. She has been in a bad temper since she woke up. She scolds Argus and shouts at Joseph and indulges in a particularly long and vicious argument with Marian over the state of the front yard.

    Ann watches it all with creeping dismay. She too woke up not entirely herself this morning, her back aches more than usual and she feels constantly, ridiculously on the edge of tears. She thinks she may be coming down with something. 

    Things soon go from bad to worse.

     

    Shortly after moving into Shibden, Ann gets her period and indulgent schmoop ensues.

    Title is a reference to the euphemism Anne uses for her period (‘cousin’) in her diaries. Inspiration came from a quoted diary entry in Anne Choma’s official companion - “[Ann’s] cousin came this morning, and I was most tender over her.”

    Summary

    Falling in love to the words of Psalm 91.
    Three snapshots exploring the times Ann’s life intersected with Anne’s prior to episode one, plus two looking at their relationship in the lead up to Ann leaving for Scotland. All inspired by the lines of Psalm 91.

    Summary

    When my confession is over and I have laid bare to Anne all my past transgressions with Reverend Ainsworth, I feel quite wrung out and weak, like laundry on the line, washed bare and blank. I do not take supper that night and retire to my room as soon as I am able. But I ask Anne to stay...

    Set post S01 E04. Anne stays the night, looks after Ann and gets looked after herself.

    Contains a very brief allusion to past sexual assault.
