    Summary

    Imagine if Charlotte Lucas's plan to capture Mr. Collins backfires. Then imagine if Mr Darcy's snide comments at the Netherfield Ball were aimed at Charlotte, not Elizabeth Bennet.

    What happens when you lose hope altogether? What happens when you and your best friend feel that you don't understand each other at all, and you're not talking?

    And what matters most - nobility of rank, or nobility of character?

    UPDATE November 2024: Thanks to some kind feedback from deniseks_syd, I have made sure that the first ball is at Lucas Lodge, not at Netherfield as I'd previously written. As such, those who've read the story before will notice some slight wording changes in the first few chapters.

    Summary

    May be slight OOC, but it's for humour purposes lol- Set during Jane and Elizabeth's stay in Netherfield.

    The great Fitzwilliam Darcy of Pemberley in Derbyshire, rumored with 10,000 pounds annum, has had his eyes set on one Elizabeth Bennet of Longbourn in Hertfordshire. She has relatively no dowry, no connections, and her family is utterly vulgar. Darcy is bent on overcoming these wayward feelings, until a certain competition arrives that threatens to steal Elizabeth's heart from him. Darcy must make things right before Elizabeth's heart is dedicated to another...

    His competition? One teddy bear by the name of Sir Walter.

    Summary

    Houses need guests, and if there’s anything Bing loves more than collecting, it’s filling them up with laughter and companionship.

    Darcy doesn’t understand the impulse buying part, or the playing host part.

    But he doesn’t argue with the need for companionship.

    Neither does Caroline.

    or, the one where they're secretly hooking up

    Summary

    The thing about living with someone for an entire month who you are otherwise attempting to exorcise from your existence is that you learn all manner of things about her you could have gone your whole life without learning.

     

    Elizabeth, having rather expected to affront him, was amazed at his gallantry; but there was a mixture of sweetness and archness in her manner which made it difficult for her to affront anybody; and Darcy had never been so bewitched by any woman as he was by her. He really believed, that were it not for the inferiority of her connections, he should be in some danger.
    Pride and Prejudice, Chapter 10, by Jane Austen

    Summary

    LBD modernized P&P so brilliantly, but the literal interpretation of "Turn About the Room" was not entirely satisfying for this LBD viewer so I made up my own. My imaginings were based on the spirit of that scene from the original source, ie, Caroline invites Lizzie to do a physical activity in front of Darcy in hopes of gaining his attention. That lead to other musings about interactions between Darcy and Lizzie at Netherfield. Mainly, Jane and Bing trying to lessen the tension between Lizzie and Darcy, and their peacemaking efforts creating more awkwardness, confusion and misunderstanding.

    Summary

    “Ugh, please, Elizabeth. Love is purely biological.” She flips her hair over her shoulder and elaborates, “It’s all instinct. I honestly don’t know why Hollywood is so fixated on it.”

    Summary

    Once it starts, he can't stop the fantasies from forming around her every little action. How terribly inconvenient, as they are living under the same roof and she doesn't seem to be leaving any time soon.
