The Emerald of the Season by mrygm

Summary
At Lady Danbury's Four Season's Ball, Colin is a little stunned by his friend arriving dressed as if she were a member of Parisian High Society, and decides not to wait until later that evening to go speak to Penelope, perhaps even dance, when he sees Cressida Cowper step on her hem.
A shocked Colin, along with Lord Debling, ensures that her hem is mended so she can stay at the ball.
Penelope's hopes for the night had already gone awry, while she was dressed differently, her awkwardness showed through. Then Cressida stepped on her hem, Debling running off to get a maid to help her. But when Pen tries to escape her humiliation, Colin Bridgerton stands in her way, and ensures that she has no reason to leave.
Her anger with him notwithstanding, she has no choice but to stay, and the night continues to improve, in some unexpected ways.
Queen Charlotte was having a rather dull season so far, the Debutants of 1815, while beautiful of course, left her rather unimpressed. And the first ball of the season had little to recommend it beyond the usual finery, the woman in the green dress the only person to catch her eye all night.
Who turned out to be rather interesting indeed... -

Summary
What if...
Colin Bridgerton was mere hours away from taking Marina Thompson to Gretna Green, to marry her, unable to sleep for excitement, at least he thought it was excitement, when Eloise had called to him through the door, had led him downstairs and out into the back garden, to find Penelope, who was there to deliver some rather devastating news.
Marina Thompson was pregnant. Definitely not by him. And he would have made her his wife without knowing...
Yet, Penelope had come to him and told him the truth, and now he had to make a decision for his own future.
And suddenly Pen was not just his very good friend...
She was the one person whom he knew he could trust without question...

Summary
It's 1815 and Penelope Featherington has a new book to read, keeping her mind from Colin.
One that is slightly disturbing, in fact. It talks of wishing oneself away to the Goblin King.
Which is nonsense, except when the shadows chortle around her, expectantly.
Then the worst happens. Penelope is the laughing stock of the Ton after Colin had so sweetly asked if he could give her lessons in charm.
And worse, she had asked him to kiss her. What must he think of her?
So, she does something even more reckless...
She wishes herself away...
>~~~8)0(8~~~<
Colin Bridgerton is reeling from his kiss with Pen, still grasping the implications of an odd dream he had about her, when her mother arrives at his house, wailing about how they were hiding Penelope, how she must have run off to be with Colin, which is news to him.
Together with Eloise, he must solve the mystery of Penelope's disappearance, finding a red book called The Labyrinth.
He summons the Goblin King, and is told there is just one way to win back the fair Penelope:Through Dangers Untold and Hardships Unnumbered, Colin Bridgerton has just thirteen hours to find her and bring her home...

Bridgerton: Through a Looking Glass. by mrygm
Fandom: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
02 Sep 2024
Summary
My Bridgerton AU series starting with To Catch a Viscountess, rewriting history when Kate does not overhear Anthony's shocking assertions about finding a wife at the Conservatory Ball, sending their entire relationship in a different direction.
An intricate tapestry of Book and Show Canon from Season 2/The Viscount Who Loved Me onwards, plus a liberal helping of my own storytelling, Kate and Anthony's love story is retold, and the divergence has a ripple affect throughout their families and the Ton, changing many things along the way, one of the most notable to Colin and Penelope's love story, which is continued in Part 2: The Jewel of Lady Whistledown.
