“What’s wrong?”
“Erm… well… fuck. Ok. Colin.” She clears her throat. “I’m so sorry, but this is a call of shame.”
“A what?”
“A call of shame. I might… I might have chlamydia.”
“Oh.” MY FUCKING GOD. He doesn’t say that part out loud but he thinks it very loudly. “Ok.” She’s going to be freaking out.
“No. No, not ok. Not ok at all. We fucked!”
“I remember.” It is absolutely top of the wank bank.
“And not like sensible adults.”

Summary
When his girlfriend asks him to stop seeing her cousin, it should be an easy request for Colin to grant.
After-all, he’s been with Marina for over a year, and as he’s told everyone since they were eight and ten years old, Penelope is nothing more than a friend.
So why does the mere thought of it, of a life without Penelope Featherington, make his chest feel so tight?

The Flatmate Fiasco by Jemigo12
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn

Summary
After discovering her boyfriend of four years had been cheating, Penelope Featherington does the most sensible thing she can think of: she moves into a London flat with three Bridgerton brothers. She plans to keep her head down, focus on her students, and rebuild her life quietly.
The universe (and Benedict) have other plans.
Between late‑night kitchen conversations, disastrous Regency Roulette nights, meddling siblings, and the kind of domestic chaos only the Bridgertons can generate, Penelope finds herself drawn into a world she never expected—one full of warmth, friendship, and the slow, surprising shift in how she and Colin see each other.
It’s a story about choosing, being chosen, and the spectacular mess in between.

Summary
What if Penelope became Lady Debling, her husband went on his planned trip, and returned three years later with almost no information about her life in the intervening time?
Greeting a child he had not known existed, or perhaps did not exist as his own child, was not covered by traditional etiquette. It seemed safest just to say hello to Penelope and let her make introductions. She didn’t seem afraid of him.
“Hello Penelope,” he said evenly. “I see some new faces on the estate.”
The boy moved when he looked at him, stepping around Penelope to the man who was standing behind her and slightly to the side. Not coincidentally, the boy’s brown hair was just the shade of Colin Bridgerton, who put a hand down to pat the child and hold his fidgeting fingers.

"If you hate oral," he says, eyeing her lazily, his head back against the grimy booth so he can look down at her, even though his heart is racing. Even though he knows that he's crossing a million lines. He doesn't care. Can't. "Then that means your boyfriend can't eat pussy."

Summary
This year instead of trudging home to her mother’s flat, Penelope has been invited to spend the Christmas holiday with her best friend Eloise and her family. Instead of snipping with her sisters over whipped turnips (less carbs than potatoes), Penelope will be breaking bread with the Bridgertons (carbs be damned)—a real family that is huge and loving and, more specifically, loves Christmas so much that they typically spend the holiday skiing in the French Alps.
And so, for the first time since she was seven years old, Penelope Featherington is looking forward to Christmas.
OR
A week in one of the poshest ski resort towns in the entire world. A week with Christmas themed Bridgerton family hijinks. A week that puts Penelope in insanely close proximity to her best friend's older brother Colin. What could go wrong?

Summary
He may have been a seasoned traveller, but this was the biggest disaster he’d seen at an airport in all his years traversing the globe. He’d been there since nine o’clock that morning, and hour after hour had gone by, with announcement after announcement stating a delay, then another, then another.
“If they’re going to cancel it, just fucking cancel it,” he mumbled, turning around abruptly and knocking his large pack against something solid, hearing a loud grunt and promptly turning around to see a body topple to the floor, much to his dismay.
“Oh my gods, I’m so sorry, are you okay?!” He reached his hand down to help the poor woman he’d apparently assaulted. She hesitated before taking his hand, letting him help her back up to standing, brushing herself off, then finally looking him in the eyes.
His breath hitched as he took her in for the first time. She was probably the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen.
***
A strangers to lovers, inspired by real-life never-ending flight delays. A sort-of ode to airports in general, and what a both magical and maddening place they can be. ✈️

Summary
When Eloise announces she wants to move again, it coincides with Colin's desire to purchase a London flat. It makes sense for them to move in with him financially, but Eloise takes some convincing and as Colin and Penelope work together to persuade her, they fall back into a closer friendship. Meanwhile, Penelope's casual work hook-up starts pushing for something more but her dormant teenage crush on Colin has come back in full force. Still, she has to be realistic, right?
But when Colin makes her an interesting offer, it has the potential to change everything. It also might burn everything down. She won't know until she tries.

Summary
“This is not happening Colin. I am not going to play any part in this, do you hear me?”
“Of course, nobody would expect you to fall over at my feet, especially in light of my unforgivably rude comments last Season.” Colin said, all reason and calm as he collected his hat from a footman, “And what would be the entertainment in that? You must be permitted to test my mettle as a suitor. Indeed I am beginning to look forward to the chase.”
“There will be no entertainment! No chase!” Penelope protested, panic steadily rising within her. “Colin-”
“Good day, Miss Penelope.” Colin smiled, familiar laughter and devilry dancing on his handsome face. She watched in mute outrage as he tipped his hat to her and strolled out her front door.
After his careless words ruined Penelope's prospects on the marriage mart, Colin is determined to do everything he can to restore her reputation and to find her a good match, even if it means pretending to court his best friend.
However, outside forces with a grudge against the Bridgertons inadvertently transforms a wallflower into the most coveted prize of the London Season of 1815.

Through the Lens of Desire by MellieMaybe

20 May 2025

Summary
Through the Lens of Desire follows documentary director Colin Bridgerton as he helms a new series exploring real couples navigating intimacy on camera. What was meant to be a bold yet professional exploration of vulnerability soon unravels into a deeply personal war when Penelope Featherington—posing as “Anne” with her boyfriend Alfred Debling (“Fred”)—arrives as one of the featured participants. Colin had no idea she would be involved, but once he sees her again, all his carefully built control crumbles. Each segment becomes a psychological and erotic battlefield, with Penelope using the camera as her weapon and Colin’s unraveling desire as the collateral damage. The two share a tumultuous past—and her performances on set blur the line between exhibition and emotional warfare.

And so, in the week before the whole family and ton are due to descend on Aubrey Hall for the annual Hearts and Flowers Ball, Lady Violet has invited a select group of eligible ladies to the Hall to participate in a series of challenges where the ultimate prize is up for grabs: marriage to one of the three oldest Bridgerton brothers.

multichap fic I will correct the chapter count on update.
Whistledown exists, Colin didn’t make any foolish declarations in the Featherington gardens, Penelope and Eloise are grand. Prudence is still unmarried. This started out as a purely crack fic but I accidentally kept adding plot and making myself cry. There is still quite a lot of crack though. If you crave period accuracy, sorry. I researched some bits with fervour and then hugged an anachronism or two for the giggles.

Summary
The Featherington family inherit a house, and it brings Penelope within punching distance of Colin Bridgerton.
He’s maddeningly cute, ridiculously nice (which is stupidly hot), and has some weird ideas about the rules of ‘yellow car’.
There’s a spark, for sure. Is it friendship? Or is it more? There are a lot of teenage hormones in the mix so it’s hard to know, but it shouldn’t take them long to figure out, right? Right?!

“This is sad.”
“It’s Titanic, Kate. It’s hardly a comedy.”
“Not the movie. The fact that we’re sitting here on a Saturday night. Alone. Eating chocolate and drinking wine.”
“What do you suggest.”
“I’m just saying – we created the biggest dating app in the UK and look at us.”——-
Kate Sharma, Sophie Baek and Penelope Featherington created the biggest dating app in the UK; it was time for them to use it in an attempt to find their own true loves.
And it just so happened that at the same time journalist Colin Bridgerton was asked to report on the success of Roses & Rakes, and how better to measure its success than create profiles for himself and his two elder brothers?
