Summary
Violet Bridgerton has had enough of her three eldest sons refusing to engage with the marriage mart. She has seen her daughters Daphne and Francesca married in the last four seasons but she wants more grandchildren and she wants them now.
And so, in the week before the whole family and ton are due to descend on Aubrey Hall for the annual Hearts and Flowers Ball, Lady Violet has invited a select group of eligible ladies to the Hall to participate in a series of challenges where the ultimate prize is up for grabs: marriage to one of the three oldest Bridgerton brothers. Penelope Featherington is on her fourth year on the mart with no prospects.

multichap fic I will correct the chapter count on update.
Whistledown exists, Colin didn’t make any foolish declarations in the Featherington gardens, Penelope and Eloise are grand. Prudence is still unmarried. This started out as a purely crack fic but I accidentally kept adding plot and making myself cry. There is still quite a lot of crack though. If you crave period accuracy, sorry. I researched some bits with fervour and then hugged an anachronism or two for the giggles.
I’m trying to be consistent, but I make the rules and my brain is wonky).- Language:

Summary
Let it be known that one Mrs. Penelope Bridgerton née Featherington is the most ignorant and naïve woman in all of London. And perhaps also the luckiest. – Lady Whistledown
Or, an exercise in seeing just how far one can push the "Pen is Oblivious to Colin Returning her Feelings" trope.

Summary
Following the death of the Lord Archibald Featherington, his cousin, an old, ugly, grouchy man who had no qualms sending his insolent son off to the Americas becomes the new Baron. Eager to free himself of the burden of his cousin’s wife and daughters he sets about arranging a marriage for the eldest daughter with an old friend, paying the dowry for the second-born daughter and declaring their mother their burden as he saw them wed. The youngest daughter was trickier, he had no more friends in want of a wife and the chit was dowdy and a little young to be sure. When he hears his former neighbour is looking for a governess for their only daughter, he writes his young and intelligent cousin references and sends her off to start a new life. When the 1814 social season begins, and one Eloise Bridgerton tries to call on her friend she is informed that Miss Penelope has moved on and the Bridgerton family have never seen nor heard from their friend since. That is, until 8 years have passed, and the Lady Kathani Bridgerton is in search of a governess for her young daughter.
