She appears one morning in early spring.
Pops up behind the calf Cara is bent over like one of the daffodils springing up in her window boxes.
Cara jolts, beside herself, startled. That takes a lot to accomplish, nowadays.
She should have known then. -

Buffy is ashamed of him, Spike knows. But when no one else is around, she touches him like she could love him.

Summary
“Do you really not know who I am?”
“No.” You draw out the word and tilt your head, giving him a once over. He’s beautiful, there’s no denying that, but you don’t recognize anything about him. You like to think you would have remembered someone who looks like that, with a sharp jawline and full lips and hazel eyes. Not to mention his accent. You don’t miss the self-absorbed aspect to the question though, which might be part of why he’s looking for self-improvement books. “Should I?”
“No, it’s fine.” He grabs his book and shoves it into the duffel bag hanging off his shoulder, and it takes every ounce of self control to not wince. “Thanks again.”

And like a dog who's learned a new trick Simon rings your bell the next day. Wasn't happy with how he left it, and wasn't that faucet leaking? He's got plenty of spare wood in his shed, don't you worry. What's that about the boiler making a weird noise? He'll take a look at it, might have something for the draft in the hallway too.
Pay him? What are you talking about, he does stuff like this for fun. Don't sweat it, love. Just hand him that wrench.

Summary
After twelve years of marriage, Prince Maegor and his wife Ceryse Hightower have at long-last conceived a child!
The realm rejoices... or would be, if Aegon the Conqueror were not on his funeral bier and his heir, Aenys, was not such an indecisive man-child.
Ceryse is thrilled... or would be, if someone could tell her what is going on, where she is, and why her husband keeps launching into villainous monologues.

Summary
"And so you talked. About anything and everything. What he had for breakfast, the newest music, the weather, the hidden intricacies of capitol life. All the while, tiptoeing around the reality of the situation: that he was the Finnick Odair, perhaps the most sought after man in all of Panem. That he came here to cry on a balcony - clearly, running away from something."
You meet Finnick at a gala. He's not what you expect.

Summary
The marriage of convenience fic no one asked for.
The morning after the Netherfield Ball, while Mr Collins is proposing to Elizabeth, Mr Bennet collapses. With her father unconscious and apparently near death, her mother pressuring her to marry Mr Collins, and the gentleman himself ignoring her protests, suddenly saying 'no' is not so easy. Faced with poverty and homelessness if she continues refusing, the gossip soon reaches Netherfield that she will have to marry Mr Collins. Just as Mr Darcy is about to mount his horse and follow Mr Bingley to London, never to return, he overhears the servants talking. The thought of Elizabeth married to a fool like Mr Collins is unbearable to him, and he resolves to make her a better offer. But, when she refuses him, he finds that he's willing to do anything for love - even marry her without the hope of being with her.

Summary
She hadn’t meant for it to happen.
One second she’d been stretching on her tiptoes, mere inches from placing a chaste kiss on his cheek (or, more likely, his beard as he was a good head and shoulders taller than her) and the next she could feel his lips, half on hers, half on her cheek, his nose brushing against the side of her own, his beard rough against her chin.
She pulled back, startled, cheeks flushing red. Oh good god, how had this happened?
In which Eliza is in Much Denial, William is a pining mess, and Ivy watches these two idiots with a mixture of fear and amusement. Some angst with a happy ending.
