Summary
“I want you to try to wrap your arms around me and drag me to the bed like he did,” she stated, firmly.
“I’m not doing that.”
“How will I figure out how to get away?”
“You can…” Colin searched for an answer, “take self defense lessons. Or get a bat to keep in here! But you’re also tiny, Pen… So that’s why it’s important that your mum knows now that he shouldn’t be here!”
“Lessons cost money, and it would be a stranger! A bat could do little if I can’t get to it, Colin,” she said his name scoldingly, “It’s great my mum knows, sure. But I need to know I can get away!”
“I’ll pay for lessons,” he offered.
“I want to do this now! Come at me,” she demanded.
“No!”
She stomped her little foot and yelled up at him, “I said, ‘now’, goddamnit!”
***OR***
After 5 years Penelope comes back into the Bridgerton’s lives, but she’s changed. The confident, feisty, young woman she’d fought hard to be is hidden under a silent, careful, compliant ruse. Can the love of the Bridgertons and some self defense lessons with Colin bring her back and undo the damage caused by her long-term ex boyfriend?

Summary
A slow-burn canon twist starting from the first time Colin notices Debling noticing Penelope, setting off a lot of feelings he realizes were always trying to dig their way out of his denial. Pen is courting with the eye to marry well and keep her career, Colin is in love so big it is only dwarfed by the accompanying trouble, and Debling is not the only rival suitor. Lots of inclusion of Featherington and Bridgerton family members as the spectacle becomes a debacle with the goal of a wedding. WIP, not always that serious, and sometimes smutty/angsty.

Colin & Penelope: Their Story by JennaGreen

Summary
This fic covers Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington’s love story, as portrayed in Bridgerton Season 3. This story explores both Colin’s and Penelope’s POVs during all their scenes throughout the eight episodes, with some analysis of their inner thoughts and relationship dynamic/development, as well as missing scenes or extra moments that I like to imagine could have happened off-screen (in particular, for the last two episodes!).
Hope you enjoy. Any feedback is really appreciated :)
UPDATE: Now completed! Thanks everyone for reading :)

Nuzzled Noses by WrensSymphony
Fandoms: Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn, Bridgerton (TV)
23 Jan 2025
Tags
Summary
From the moment of their accidental meeting as young children through the trauma of hurt and loss, the heartbreak of adolescence, and the confusion of young adulthood, Colin and Penelope's connection anchors them both.
This story aims for hurt and comfort in equal measure as it follows the "platonic best friends" (really, though?) as they grow up, with time jumps between each chapter as we see them navigate their lives together. Their story is one of true friends to lovers, where lines blur and it's hard to see where friendship ends and love begins, because perhaps they've been together all along.
*CW: This is NOT a dark fic, but does contain mature themes, specifically a child abuse storyline.*

Ch 1 Preview:
She was startled and looked up into his eyes for a moment, and then started giggling. It was the most beautiful sound he had ever heard. It sounded like his mom’s wind chimes on the back porch, or the bells on the ice cream truck when it rounded the corner… but even more magical. He giggled back at her.
“I’m Colin,” he said with a smile that he didn’t even have to try to make so big.
“Penelope,” said the girl with the giggle that was now his favorite song.
