Summary
Penelope has been taught very little about the change that will take place upon her coming of age.
But that should not matter. The Featheringtons have always been betas, unaffected by the fate-altering pheremones that draw alphas and omegas to each other. Penelope shall be no exception.
After crossing paths with Colin Bridgerton, she finds that truth harder to bear.
A thought occurs to her: what harm could come of delaying the change for a while?

Summary
“Oh.” Eloise sat back and raised a hand to her mouth, considering. “That is a neat solution. If you two were married, then our troubles would no longer plague us.”
“Pardon?” Penelope said, heartbeat thudding in her ears.
“Excuse me?” Colin said at the very same moment.
Despite knowing that this is an awful idea, Penelope agrees to a marriage of convenience. She settles into an idyllic house in the countryside to await letters from her husband travelling abroad.
Time will tell whether the marriage proves truly convenient—or something more than any of them could have anticipated.

Summary
Briar Baggins was a disappointment to those in the Shire who once expected that she would become someone exceptional. She was difficult to coax from her study, often withdrawing into books about lands far beyond their green, rolling hills.
It came as a surprise when Briar accepted an invitation from her cousin to visit Bucklebury, and returned some time later with a baby in her arms. A baby that malicious gossips insisted had been seen wearing tiny socks, of all things!
No doubt things would settle down again after that bit of excitement.
A proper gentlehobbit would not chase after adventure well into her middle age, after all.

Summary
A oneshot for each of the Y-Destiny couples.
Posted in name order (since they are named for days of the week).
Each story is canon compliant and can be read as a standalone.
I love this show and hope more people write stories for it in the future!

Summary
The man sprawled on the hot Kentucky pavement isn’t dead. He’s just taking his sweet time dying.
Eggsy glances at the sky and shifts his weight on his back foot to wait. It’s not as if either of them has anywhere to be.
Death is patient like that.

Summary
She snorts. “What a stupid rule. Why would I win the gold if not for marriage?”
“I’ll divorce you if you don’t.” he says, lighting quick.
She sighs, tutting, “Well, can’t have all that paperwork.”

Summary
Gentle Reader,
The most shocking news has reached this author’s ears. It would seem the ton’s most eligible gentleman and its confirmed wallflower have begun what they would claim to be “friendly correspondence”. However, these letters tell another, much more scandalous, tale.
AKA: The Regency Sexting AU that you were all waiting for.

Summary
"[The Captain] fiddled with his tie as he walked down the corridor, but was stopped in his tracks by a sudden wailing cry. He smirked briefly, unable to suppress his amusement at the thought of Julian and his houseguests, before carrying on down the main staircase, and out into the gardens.
He’d made the right decision in switching rooms last night, clearly. He had no doubt that Michael’s parents would have provided enough of a disturbance to have made sleep a moot point. And, if nothing else, at least he didn’t have to worry about Thomas phasing through him in the middle of the night.
At that thought, the Captain abruptly came to a halt. He placed his swagger-stick under his arm and drew in a tremulous breath.
Nothing about Thomas had been incorporeal last night. Nothing whatsoever. The memory of his solidity, of the weight of his body, of the sheer warmth of that contact—".
Displaced from his bedroom over the Christmas period, the Captain is forced to make new sleeping arrangements.
