Summary
Happily ever after.
Or is it?
It’s been two weeks since John’s wrecked wedding and their daring escape. Illness leads to the connection of heartbreaking memories, and John realizes she is pregnant. With her brother’s men searching for her, and her lover overwhelmingly wanted dead, the two must struggle on, trying to find the course of action least detrimental to John’s sanity. But maybe Conrade sees more than John does, more than a heinous violation or torturesome memory, but an opportunity for something more... love, strength, passion, and endurance.

From Whence a Hero Comes by Relega

Summary
Hero admires her cousin's bravery and strength. Beatrice thinks her little cousin has strength all on her own, but Hero doesn't see it. A tumultuous affair in which Hero finds herself a lady in love, a fallen woman, and eventually dead (to her fiance) causes her to reevaluate the attributes it takes to be a real hero, and if the person a hero saves can be herself.
Possible romance elements to come, but for now this is just an exploration of Hero and how I think a soft teenage girl might feel when suddenly thrust into turmoil for the first time in her life.

John makes it several strides before he lurches to a halt, ripping open his sleeve with a hiss, his wrist burning. Where before there had been plain skin, he now stares at the delicate letters inscribed over his pulse.

Summary
John’s always had terrible taste in women. Except for Conrade. Conrade seems like the only respectable option. But, not in a romantic way, nope, completely platonic.
Conrade’s always had to see them come and go, girl after girl, all the while wondering, When is she ever going to look at me?
They just want a relaxing life. But being royal and a rising to fame celebrity doesn’t quite allow them such things. Love, jealousy, affairs. Cameras, magazines, microphones. What more could you possibly want?

Summary
Title - "Dark Times" by Ben Platt
Hero has always been happy to fly under the radar, to not get too much attention, to be unproblematic at best and invisible at worst. With a boyfriend in Claudio, she suddenly exists in the spotlight at WSHS, but when tragedy--a blessing in disguise--strikes, maybe, just maybe, she'll be able to start keeping her head up the way she was always taught to.

Done to death by slanderous tongues,
Was the Hero that here lies:
Death in guerdon of her wrongs,
Gives her fame which never dies:
So the life that died with shame,
Lives in death with glorious fame. -

Summary
Ben and Beatrice try to push each other everywhere except off Leo's roof at the worst homecoming-turned-engagement party of all time. It could be that they're older, or lonelier, or there's just been enough time since they last rejected each other, but it almost feels like they're getting along again. Or something.

Summary
They leave at dawn, partly to avoid a crowd gathering around the ship as they did the last time. It is only her uncle, her aunt and herself that are there to bid them goodbye and wish them safe journeys. Benedick kisses her hand, but he doesn't look at her. She cries for three days straight and Hero is worried sick, but it passes, as all things do, and life goes on.
