Summary
Barney Snaith is many things - a writer (albeit one with nom de plume), a woodsman, a cat person and, above everything else, a loner. He tried the whole friendship and love things once and it was more than enough, thank you very much. The very last thing he expects to ever do in his life is to get married and yet this is exactly what happens to him one summer evening - and he's the last person to make any sense of it.
Retelling of "Blue Castle" from Barney's POV.

One She Would Understand by Dee_Moyza for searchingforserendipity

Summary
"Tell you what, there is something you can do for Cissy. Be a friend. She'd never admit it herself—too afraid of stepping on anyone's toes—but she could use someone to talk to. More than a husband or a hero, she needs a friend."
In all his thirty years before arriving at Mistawis, Barney had never known true friendship. But when he thought of Cissy's shy smile, her delicate way of dealing with both her father and her baby, and the air of loneliness that enveloped her when she discussed her exile from Deerwood society, he resolved to at least make an attempt. After all, she wasn't the only one who could use a friend.

Ties That Bind, Bonds That Strengthen by Nami_Roland

Summary
Several things had become clear to her during that long, sleepless night. First, that Byron Stirling was the father of Cecilia Gay's child. This she had known already, but the knowledge had solidified inside her, as plain as if she had seen the words written in Mrs. Stirling's family bible. Second, that none of the Stirlings would ever acknowledge the child's existence, much less their relation to it. And third, that she, Valancy Stirling, stood at a cross road in her life.
Valancy goes early to Roaring Abel's house. Written for the 2023 Blue Castle Fanworks Challenge.

Summary
Cecilia Stirling Smith was married hastily at 17, and the baby came six months later, confirming the scandal. Valancy Gay is 29 and still unmarried, which would be a quiet scandal in its own right if she were anyone else. Their paths cross again when Cissy's husband hires Valancy to be his wife's companion, after she becomes pregnant with their second child.
More of a detailed summary/thought ramble than a fully fledged fic.

Summary
He hadn't been thinking of Valancy during that trip to the Port, not really. At least, not until he saw the little boxes of chocolates in the window of the confectionery and decided then and there that Valancy simply must have one--as a friendly gift, a token of appreciation, nothing more. Definitely nothing more.
