Summary
“‘M afraid I proposed,” Lord Peter told his whiskey.
“Proposed,” Phryne repeated.
“Yes. Marriage.”
There was a pause as she took this in. “She was in prison. You’d been called in, all monocled, to keep her from hanging. And your suggestion to her was holy matrimony.”
Peter flourished a hand in a sad sort of bow.

Summary
Adam bends his neck so their foreheads touch, and Rao laughs weakly, because god help him now, this is not something he’s going to come back from. This is a grand cosmic joke, of course, because the last few years of his life have been one long run of things that he’s never going to come back from, from Kabul to his resurrection in a field in Rajasthan. But Adam? Adam is ruinous in a completely different way.
After the end.

Summary
Mary Bennet agrees to spend the London season with the newly married Darcys. She discovers that she would still infinitely prefer a book. But hiding in the library at balls and parties is not the solution, as an odd young man keeps turning up there.
“'Miss Bennet', she says. I did not know my Conscience would have such an ordinary name.”
“I am not your conscience, sir,” Mary said, feeling made fun of and annoyed to be shaken out of her reverie for nonsense. “And whimsicality such as this, whilst charming in a child, is not so appealing in a grown man.”
“Wait,” he said. “Do wait. I am so used to speaking in that silly way with silly young women that I quite forgot myself. Please stay and talk a little more.”
(from the prompt "Mary's season in London. Her moralising is a trial to her sisters but in the end she outshines them all.")
ETA Thank you to Prinzenhasserin for helping me bounce around some ideas, and to Burglebezzlement for the offer of betaing!
