Summary
**NOTE: Added another chapter in July and will add an epilogue.
What if at the end of Season 2, Benedict encouraged Penelope to confess her feelings to Colin. What if Penelope and Benedict heard Colin's horrible words and Colin found out? What if Colin had a semi-good reason for saying he'd never court Penelope?
This is a reimagining of the end of Season 2 and Colin and Penelope's HEA.

Here it is!
Oh… What do you mean you never asked for this?... I am pretty sure you did. 🤔
Yes! You definitely said you wanted an insane story in which Colin is a Valentine’s card and Pen is.. well.. a pen.
You didn’t? … Really?
Well shit! Here it is anyway.
The Valentine’s themed, writing in a card as symbolism for sex fic that nobody asked for.

Summary
Colin lives in Paris. And when Penelope comes to his city on her book tour, it's the first time they've seen each other in two years.
Penelope only has an hour or so before she has to take a train home, so they make the most of the time they have, wandering the city, catching up.
But what starts as two friends reconnecting quickly feels like something more. Something familiar. Something irresistible.
OR: a story of Polin in Paris, inspired by the Before Sunset movie.

Summary
Colin’s fingers twitch. He shifts his weight from foot to foot. He’s been waiting for several minutes and he’s only getting more anxious. If only he could see her. He sighs dramatically.
“Your wife?” asks the customs officer.
Colin nods, eyes still searching for any glimpse of his friend, before realising that that isn’t correct. “I mean… no…” he mutters quietly.
We’re in Fiji, he reminds himself. They’re a very friendly people. She’ll be fine.
He still cannot see Penelope but he has a clear view of the customs officer, wearing plastic gloves and raised eyebrows, as he reaches into Penelope’s suitcase and pulls out the biggest dildo Colin has ever seen.

Why You So Obsessed With Me (Boy I Wanna Know) by Lovelymagnolia for sexymonk

Summary
She’d always been desperately in love with Colin, always looking for and jumping at any opportunity she got to be with him, to talk to him. She’d never really thought about the fact that he might have been doing the same thing.
“I hate to say it, Pen, but they’re right,” Eloise admitted begrudgingly. “My brother is obsessed with you, which still grosses me out for the record.”
“You really think so?”
“You really don’t?” Hyacinth cut in.
“Colin’s an amazing boyfriend. He shows me how much I mean to him every day,” Penelope told the group. “I just think saying that he’s obsessed with me is a bit of an exaggeration, that’s all.”
For a rare, peaceful moment, Hyacinth said nothing, but then her eyes lit up, and Penelope felt a jolt of dread in her stomach. “Well, I for one think it’s the perfect way to describe him, and I know how we’re going to prove it.”
Penelope knew she was going to regret asking this, but still she questioned anyway, “How?”
“With a TikTok trend!” Hyacinth said, practically vibrating with excitement.
Penelope doesn't think Colin is obsessed with her, everyone else knows that he is, and a certain TikTok trend comes into play.
