Summary
“Eurydice, dying now a second time, uttered no complaint against her husband. What was there to complain to of, but that she had been loved?"
— Ovid, MetamorphosesPortrait of Emmanuel Duarte Luna, Later 4th Count of Alaior (circa. 1815) sits in the Sa Bassa Blanca Museum, easily, and often, overlooked. History will never know about the lingering looks, or stolen moments. Nor does it need to.
Love transforms us, no matter how briefly we hold it in trembling hands, and that will never be a tragedy - no matter what the poets say.

Summary
Alternate Universe/Canon Divergence: Kate and Anthony sacrifice their love for their duties. There is no bangle rescue, No bee in chapel and Anthony doesn't "pull a Ross". The wedding of our nightmares actually goes through.
What happens next? Spoiler Alert: They hook up and have an affair. Trigger warning: Infidelity/Adultery. Lots of angst, guilt and pining with eventual happy ending. No one is evil, its just a messy complicated situation for my lovely self sabotaging idiots.
I am obsessed with Kanthony. I hear Kanthony themes in many songs - hence the playlist. Not a writer by any means. Still trying to figure out AO3 tips and tricks. I will love your kudos and comments. Complete Playlist in End Notes

Summary
Follows on from the events of S2 but was written prior to the S3 synopsis being dropped.
When Penelope Featherington decides to take it upon herself to tell the Queen of England she is Lady Whistledown, she promises to make this London Season the most entertaining yet. But, as Lady Danbury explains when she offers to help, the Queen is a romantic at heart, so tidbits of petty gossip won’t suffice for long. If Penelope can’t keep the Queen interested, well, that will be the end of both Penelope and Lady Whistledown. So now she needs to find a story of romance in a ton filled to the brim with rakes and social climbers, quite the challenge indeed. Edwina Sharma, who somehow has Penelope all figured out, keeps suggesting that she ‘look closer to home’. A riddle Penelope might be able to decipher if Colin Bridgerton wasn’t being so damn distracting. Oh, and on top of all this, she has to somehow mend her friendship with Eloise, avoid Lord Fife’s wandering hands, and keep her mother focused on finding Prudence a husband so she can stay firmly planted on the wall.
Are you not entertained, Your Majesty?

Summary
What if Kate never heard Anthony's speech at Lady Danbury's Conservatory Ball?
Anthony Bridgerton is determined to find himself a wife, having rejected the current season's debutants as anything but suitable, his hope that Her Majesty, Queen Charlotte will choose an Incomparable of the season - a Diamond - and save him the trouble of choosing. For the last thing he wants is a love match.
Only, he cant stop thinking about a certain lovely, and sharp witted young lady, whose name he does not even know...Kate Sharma is interested in just one thing: Help her sister find a nobleman who'll love her and provide for her the life that she deserves. And if she, Kate, gains a reputation as a thorny spinster in the process, well then, it's not as if she ever entertained notions of marrying herself. All of her hopes and dreams were for Edwina alone. And then a certain gentleman rode into her life, most unwelcome, and for just a single moment, or many, perhaps, she wondered what it might be like to find her own true love.
Edwina Sharma is resolved: She can see that there is something between her sister and the handsome, charming Viscount. And she will not allow either of them to ignore it.

Summary
Who is Miss Sophia Shu-Mei Beckett?
It is the season of 1812 and at the Bridgerton masquerade ball a mysterious woman in silver enchants the ton, then disappears as quickly as moonlight flees from dawn.
Sophia Shu-Mei Beckett dons a silver dress and attends a ball to support a friend but finds herself conversing with a mysterious gentleman with the soul of an artist.
Benedict Bridgerton is left haunted by a Lady whose smile enraptured him far more than her silver skirt.
In fairytales the two would reunite and live happily ever after. But Sophia Beckett knows that illegitimate children of noblemen and maids do not get fairytale endings, and so the lovers are left only with the memory of a moonlit kiss on their lips.
*~*~*~*~*
It is 1815, not even a year since Simon Hasting’s death in his country study, when Daphne Hastings finds a bundle of papers revolving around one Miss Sophia Beckett.
Sophie knows not to dwell in the past, but as she returns to London the currents of past and present, love and loss draw Sophie and Benedict closer and closer together—no matter the risk, no matter the cost.

Summary
What if Penelope refused Colin’s proposal after the carriage incident? What if Penelope stood firm in her refusal and Colin had to work a little bit harder for that “yes”? What if Colin asked basically everybody in his family for advice and applied it terribly?
This is how I think that could play out.
(An alternate take going from the end of Chapter 13 of Romancing Mr. Bridgerton. Book Canon with a few show shout-outs.)
