    Summary

    George Knightley, as local leader and magistrate, is a source of wisdom and guidance. He is a mentor to all and is commanded by none. Excepting, of course, his own mother. This story will follow the characters and events of Emma with one small alteration: a living Dowager of Donwell whose declarations and demands are not to be trifled with.

    Summary

    “Do… Do you think they felt it? I mean, that happened sometimes. There weren’t enough beds for all the sick so if someone was really far gone, sometimes the nurses would bury or burn them while they were still alive. What if they were still alive? I should have been there. I should…”

    “Hey. Hey, Gar look at me. It was not your fault, you understand me? You were just a kid.”

    Gar surged to his feet. The pain was so intense it almost felt like energy. Like it could send him careening into outer space. “What if they were alive, Dick? What if they were burned alive!?”

    Summary

    “She had a crush,” Barry stage-whispered.

    “Be-ear,” she said.

    Toby raised her brows at them. Most new husbands wouldn’t be so entertained by their new wife’s crush, especially on the town superhero, but Barry looked downright tickled. Clearly he didn’t feel threatened in the least.

    Summary

    “Are you happy?” he asks her once, so quiet she almost doesn’t hear. It is more confession than question, a whispered exhalation into the skin of her hip. But Emma’s ear is attuned to that resonance now, and she catches it in the midst of every other sensation and holds it close to her and examines it.

    Is she happy? Of course she is. She is alive, and she has more than she ever thought she could have — certainly more than she could ever deserve — and he is here with her, when he might have chosen to keep himself alone.

    Summary

    There was little else to say after that, for she was woefully and entirely right. He had always dreamed of children, even when he himself was a child. The desire, and it’s intensity, had only grown stronger as he had gotten older. With his parents long dead and his brother married, the only familial comfort Mr. Knightley knew was visiting Emma and Mr. Woodhouse for cards or an evening of quiet reading.

    Summary

    Emma had always taken great pride in her imagination, but that day found her wishing to be a duller person with a less active mind. For she could do nothing without imagining, again and again, all the times she had taken great pains to invite Mr. Elton to Hartfield in order to encourage interactions between himself and Harriet. Now everything he had done and said in those moments took on new meanings - the very recollection of all the times he had praised her or let his gaze linger on her a little too long made Emma feel quite dreadful.

    ~ a short little one shot about Emma discussing Mr. Elton's proposal with Mr. Knightley.

    Dear Mr Knightley,

    We expect you promptly at five o’clock for dinner. I hope this is agreeable to you.

    Regards,
    Emma Woodhouse

     

    Dear Emma,

    Thank you for the kind offer, but given that I have received no prior warning of this occasion, you must excuse me if I beg off. I have a previous engagement.

    Much appreciatively,
    G. Knightley
