Summary
Colin and Penelope are cheating on their respective partners with each other and neither knows how to stop.
--
Colin's lips find her neck from behind as his hand trails down the front of her body. She grips the counter on either side of the sink, eyeing herself in the mirror. No words are exchanged. He looks up and catches her eye as his fingers dip below her knickers and swipe across her clit. It’s immediate ecstasy.
A drug.
An addiction.
Colin rolls her sensitive nub lazily between his fingers for a few moments, checking to see how wet she is before she nods and he pushes back, fishing his wallet out of his back pocket, producing a condom. He’s gotten really good at refreshing his stash each time they used one, especially after one horrifying instance where he’d forgotten, and they’d had to resort to other tactics to satisfy them, lamenting the missed opportunity for him to fill her properly.

Summary
Years after they faded from each other's lives, Colin Bridgerton finds himself thinking, once again, about the first and only girl he's ever loved; Penelope Featherington. She is supposedly happily married, and a successful author, and it is embarrassing how much he still pines for her.

Summary
Penelope is invited to spend her first full summer at Aubrey Hall with the Bridgertons. She now has unfettered access to Colin, who never returned for the social season after his travels the summer following the Featherington Ball.
–
Canon divergence (no Whistledown, among other little shifts.)Essentially an imagining of what might have happened if Colin and Penelope had had more time apart, more time for Colin to fester and wilt, and more time for Penelope to “move on.” Also, what might have happened if they had had even more unsupervised access to one another.
-
In truth, I just wanted a very drunk Colin to show Pen some fireflies. But of course it is never that simple.
Outline is drawn, work in progress. -

Summary
When A-list actor and seemingly reformed idiot Colin Bridgerton’s high-profile engagement to singer-songwriter Marina Thompson oh-so publicly implodes, he’s convinced it’s the worst thing that has ever happened to him. That is, of course, until Marina releases a scathing and totally unsubtle chart-topping single about the supposed reason for their break-up: her ex-fiancé’s apparent enduring obsession with another woman named ‘Anne’, whose description bears a suspicious and uncanny resemblance to someone in Colin’s past.
Now, it’s the worst thing that’s ever happened to him and his career as Hollywood’s sweetheart. Acting fast, his publicist decides that the only route to redemption is to spin the scandal into a sweeping true-to-life love story his adoring fans won’t be able to resist rooting for. But, well, for that, they’ll need ‘Anne’, won't they?
-- Or, Colin Bridgerton gets the shock of his life when he's duly notified of his undying love for his former best friend via massive, international record-breaking pop hit. It is absolutely as chaotic as it sounds.

Summary
Penelope can feel Eloise draw in a breath, as though gearing up for something big. “Remember how I went to that summer camp?”
Eloise turns her head so that she’s facing Penelope as they lay side-by-side on the bed. “Don’t be weird.”
“I’m not going to be weird!” She’s very unsure where this is going, but she’s also very interested in its trajectory—if anyone is being weird, it’s Eloise, which isn’t necessarily new, but it’s not usually this…suspicious.
“I sort of, technically met a guy there—you said you wouldn’t be weird about it.” She rushes through the last bit, as though to hurry Penelope past the first part of her statement, but Penelope’s pretty sure there’s no way to rush past that. No wonder Eloise is being so squirrelly.

Mother Knows Best by Mariequitecontrarie for MidnightCornelia

Summary
“Penelope is intelligent and lovely,” Mother said, a knowing sparkle in her eye. “The gowns she has chosen this season certainly make her look like the woman she has become.”
“I had, uh, not noticed.” A muscle ticked in Colin’s jaw, betraying the lie as did his stutter. The effort he’d put into not staring at Penelope’s lips and breasts the last several weeks had been rewarded with tortured dreams where he looked, touched, and kissed—but never to his satisfaction.
And now that he had experienced his first real taste…“She is Pen,” he said, a reminder to himself.
She is your friend.

Summary
When he finally spoke his voice was a low rumble. She could practically feel it vibrating through her whole body.
“You’re such a good girl, Pen.”
And fuck, she knew in that second she was done for. There was no returning to normal after this.

Summary
A certain author is turning 50 this month, so here I'm exploring an older Penelope with a younger Colin - a 15 year age gap. He's 21 when they meet and it's a slow burn, he falls first and she pushes him away, but if that premise gives you the ick, back out now please!
Writing this for Penelope's birthday in Polin week and for my birthday soon! Still a work in progress but hoping to get it finished pretty soon (famous last words)

Summary
Colin knows the signs. Blood humming in his veins. Gut stirring with need. A temper that flares without rhyme or reason. His rut looms on the horizon, meaning it’s time to download the apps and go through the motions of mating simply to stave off biological need.
It’s begrudging. Empty. Not at all what he wants and something that only satisfies his alpha. No, what Colin wants is a connection. Intimacy. Someone he can fall asleep beside and take to breakfast the following morning. And he is certain he won’t find that on the apps.
But then he meets Anne, and his life is irreparably changed.

Penelope shakes her head. "I thought you read Lady Whistledown the other day?”
"No, you dimwit," Prudence says. "LORD Whistledown."
"Lord…what?" Penelope snatches the pamphlet out of Portia's hand - a gasp of surprise that Penelope barely hears coming from her mother - and begins to read what it right in front of her.LORD WHISTLEDOWN
A gentleman's pamphlet and attempt to woo
