Summary
They started the dance silently. She wondered why he had bothered to ask her to dance at all if he didn’t want to talk. There was so much left to say, but none of it in polite company. And, most importantly, none of what she had to say mattered now. They were both married.
“I almost forgot to congratulate you-”
“You do not need to.”
“But I must-” She insisted.“I’d really rather you didn’t.” He said sternly. Colin’s face was unreadable as he couldn’t meet her eyes. Instead she stared at his clenched jaw. She supposed she wouldn’t have wanted his congratulations either after her own wedding, not that he tried to offer any.
---
1814: Colin Bridgerton realizes he is in love. It should be a joyful time, but with competition for Pen's hand and secrets that threaten to ruin them, the pair's far from a happily ever after.1816: Penelope Debling is trying to make peace with her new life as a Countess running an estate for an absent husband. She is determined to feel content, but when she has to host Colin Bridgerton, old feelings threaten to unravel her.
This story will be told in 2 alternating timelines (complete with double ch drops!) until the first timeline catches up to 1816.

Summary
Why? Colin seems to be asking himself that a lot on this tour. Why isn't Pen replying to his letters? Why did Pen and El stop being friends? Why are they friends again? Why has Benedict started mentioning Pen in his letters? The biggest question though is why is he so upset about it all? He has spent a great deal of his time thinking about Penelope Featherington and not all of these thoughts have been completely pure. That in itself was quite the revelation to him and started a whole new round of whys. He missed her; he knew that, he always did when he was away. She had always been his truest friend and most faithful correspondent. Always offering him a kind and supportive ear or shoulder as the case may be. She was probably the most important relationship he had outside of his family. To have her shut him out so completely and him having no way of accerning why was very distressing. He had sometimes wondered what it was he missed at home when he was traveling but this was an entirely different story.

Panic! At The Family Planning Clinic by StellarDegenerate
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
16 Jun 2025
Tags
Summary
Thanks to a typo made by an overworked scheduling nurse, Penelope Featherington was accidentally artificially inseminated, resulting in her becoming a pregnant virgin at the age of 26. And to make matters even more absurd, Colin Bridgerton may or may not be the father.
Granted, neither of them knew that was actually a possibility.
For one thing, Colin had never told anyone, aside from Anthony and his mother, about his decision to bank his sperm. And he certainly wasn't ready to tell his best friend about how the sperm he'd banked had recently gone missing. (In retrospect, the clinic being named Pall Mall Family Planning probably should've been considered an omen.)
And Penelope certainly didn't have any reason to discuss her sex life (or lack thereof) with Colin of all people, so she was perfectly fine with letting him assume that she'd been knocked up by a one-night stand. He didn't even know she was still a virgin!
In any case, there are plenty of other candidates for the paternity of Penelope's baby. (And this author makes zero promises! ;P)

Summary
Penelope woke up alone. Alone and in her childhood bedroom. For the third day in a row. Her hand slid down to her lower abdomen. The life that was supposed to be fluttering there did not exist yet and neither did the beautiful children that she had already given birth to.
She had three days to accept that something had happened that had sent her back to just before her first season. She wished she had more time, but with having to wake up every day in the wrong house, the wrong bed, without her husband and children—Penelope had to accept that her current present was her new reality.
No matter how often she cried every morning, hours before Rae came to get her ready for the day.

Penelope could swear she’s seen the Bridgertons new maid from somewhere… she just can’t quite place it?
My take on how the show might do that scene in An Offer From a Gentleman, where Penelope meets Sophie and instantly recognizes her.

Summary
Dearest gentle readers,
It is a well-known fact of le bon ton that Bridgertons only marry soulmates. Though This Author cannot ascertain how common or easy it is to find such soulmates among the highest circles of our fine Society, it seems that the Bridgertons manage to always do just that... Then again, if one had had the fortune of having such an exemplary couple as the late Lord Edmund Bridgerton and the Dowager Viscountess, Lady Violet Bridgerton as their parents, one could understand the desire to meet their own...
The Bridgerton siblings had always grown with the belief that the existence of soulmates was common knowledge, and that, when one met theirs, they must marry them.
That was how it was with their parents, so that was how it must be with them...
Was it not?
_____Soulmate AU where the whole world is black and white until you meet your soulmate... but with a twist.
Each chapter will follow the love story of one of the Bridgerton siblings. Although their stories will all tie together in the end, as timelines intermingle and the typical Bridgerton chaos ensues...

Summary
"Colin Bridgerton would never dream of courting me," Penelope laughed behind her fan, ignorant to the very man hovering behind the shrubbery behind her, and even less aware of the way his heart shuddered in his chest. "Not even in your wildest fantasies, Lady Cowper."
Colin gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to storm in there and shake the infuriating woman, the same woman who he, apparently, had been courting for the entire season and yet had no idea of his feelings for her.
Bloody hell.
***
Everyone knew that the spinster lady of the Featherington barony had no intentions of marrying and similarly, no man had any intention of marrying her.
So why, pray tell, was the newest Bridgerton bachelor chasing after her skirts like she was some pretty little chit?

Summary
Dearest gentle readers,
As should be surprise to none, given how prolific the Bridgerton family is, there is another daughter finally debuting this season, a Miss Eloise Bridgerton. The question is now, will she have success in her first season unlike her elder sister, or will she follow in her footsteps and simply take her time and snatch the most eligible bachelor that comes our way?
Be that as it may, one can only suppose that after the success of two rather good marriages for two of her children, Viscountess Bridgerton is aiming for as much success this season. Especially as it appears her eldest, the very eligible bachelor, Viscount Bridgerton, has finally decided to settle.
This author cannot deny she is tittling with anticipation as to what this season may bring...
______
Sequel to "look at the stars, look how they shine for you (and everything you do)"
Season 2 AU to my series in which Penelope is not Lady Whistledown. (Mixing book and show canon).
