    Summary

    Elizabeth tours Pemberley with the Gardiners a year early, while the Darcys are away at Ramsgate. She is intrigued by the housekeeper's glowing praise of a man who is highly respected by his servants and tenants, and a doting guardian to his much younger sister, not to mention so handsome in his portrait. But when she meets him in person two months later in Hertfordshire, he doesn't quite match Mrs Reynolds' description.

    Summary

    A retelling of the excanon series through the eyes of a young trans main character, Rhiannon. Rather than at first directly changing canon events I have chosen to instead have characters react to them more realistically, causing some actions that happened in canon to have greater consequences and by this ripple effect gradually altering the story. Because excanon was a war story sanitised for children, it IS going to get dark at times. Sometimes for a few chapters at a time. But I am writing that dark on purpose because excanon didn't do any of it emotional justice, and I am writing a stronger found family & friend circle for my main character, because we can survive all kinds of darkness if we stand together.
    Remember: Being trans is not a tragedy. Being disabled is not a tragedy. Being queer is not a tragedy. And even though in the real world we don't get to be heroes, our lives are worth living and we deserve to be able to live them safely and free of abuse. This is not a story for everyone. This is a story for us.
