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.

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.

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.

Summary
The video finds her at two AM when the algorithm has decided she's vulnerable enough for spiritual content.
Write thirteen wishes, the woman on the screen instructs. One for each month of the coming year, plus one extra. And then, starting on the winter solstice, pull one each night and burn it. Release it to the universe. Trust that it will unfold without you clinging to it.
On New Year's Day, you'll have one wish left. That one is the one thing you are not delegating to the cosmos. The one thing you are committing to actually work toward.
It sounds like nonsense, but when Penelope is twenty-one and overwhelmed by life, the idea of outsourcing some decisions to the universe feels less like magical thinking and more like a legitimate coping mechanism.
At twenty-nine, she writes a wish that makes her hands shake so badly she can barely fold the paper:
I tell Colin how I feel.

Calendar Chaos by fullysplendid for Totes_Papilio

Summary
Every December Colin sends his friend Penelope a fun advent calendar – something silly toys or tasty treats. It’s their thing. A little tradition which started years ago.
Only this year when the calendar arrives Penelope’s heart stops. Her brain melts. Her whole world turned on its head.
This calendar didn’t contain toys or treats. This calendar didn’t contain anything at all, except written suggestions.
Sexy suggestions.
Because apparently her friend Colin had decided to send her a sexy advent calendar for horny couples.
———————
“I can’t believe after all these years this is how he tells you he’s down to fuck.” Gen laughs like a maniac. “I’m not sure if he’s smooth or psychotic?”
“Shut the fuck up, Gen! Shut the fuck up.”
She needs to concentrate.

Summary
Making a beeline for the fridge she notices him straight away. Colin, making a very similar beeline from the opposite side. It’s like they're magnetised to each other, except they’re both actually magnetised to the turkeys. Their hands land on the door handle at exactly the same time, their fingers touching lightly.
“Oh,” Colin exclaims.
Penelope smiles, the touch of his fingers thoroughly distracting her and causing all sorts of internal reactions.
“Turkey too?” He adds.
“Yeah, Portia’s Christmas depends on it.”
“My life depends on mine,” Colin laughs, pulls the door open and offers to let her go first.
“Oh.”
“Ah.”
There’s only one turkey.

Summary
When Penelope is kidnapped on the road to London, she doesn’t expect a swift rescue, if one comes at all. Then Colin Bridgerton comes crashing through the door, windswept, heartbreakingly heroic, and entirely too handsome for his own good—especially when she starts praising him for saving her life.
Now they’re stranded for the night with only one bed and Colin rapidly discovers that nothing tests his gentlemanly restraint like sharing close quarters with the one woman whose opinion has always mattered to him—especially when she won’t stop giving him those maddening compliments.

Summary
Colin Bridgerton was a rising British tennis star, who disappointed in his professional debut and struggled to find his footing amongst the ATP Tour for years.
His dreams of winning Wimbledon seemed further and further away when a knee injury sidelined him during his eighth season. The only bright side was re-connecting with his sister's best friend he hadn't seen in years, who reminded him to focus on what inspired him to play from the beginning.
Penelope tried to keep her distance from Colin, remaining as guarded as possible, but relented when circumstances kept bringing them together, preparing herself for the inevitable heartbreak that would consume her when he re-joined the tour and moved on with his life.
---
“What if I can’t?” Colin asked, voicing his actual biggest fear out loud. The dark cloud looming overhead. “What if I try and give it everything I’ve got and I can’t get it back?” Shame trickled throughout his body.
Penelope paused again, not rushing her response. She spoke quietly, cradling his insecurities with her soft spoken understanding. “Then at least you’ll know for sure. And you won’t look back with regrets.”

He's shocked to not only find his omega, but to find it in none other than the young Penelope Featherington.
Can they all find love with one another? Will Colin be able to accept her as more than a friend? Will Anthony be able to get over his first love, Siena?
