Summary
In nearly every way (except the most notable), the Princess of Hyrule was the Goddess incarnate. For that reason alone, it was a little ingenious for the King to offer up his daughter’s hand to whoever was able to pull the sword.
Link hadn’t meant to pull the sword. He planned to watch as his comrades pulled with all their might, perhaps even tease a few about how it was all for the better that the sword didn’t budge, because surely no Princess could ever love their ugly mugs, and then get into a good old-fashioned wrestling match with their bruised egos after one too many jokes. But it hadn’t mattered what he had in mind; Link’s plans be damned. The Goddess had already plucked him out of obscurity and set him along Her own path.

Summary
In the end there is really only one thing to say. Thank you, Miles writes, and a few days after he sends this last message he sees Phoenix Wright in the Arrivals area of Dublin Airport for the first time since that grey spring morning over two and a half years ago.
—
Six times they come together. One time Miles comes home.
Spans across canon (mostly taking place during the disbarment era) — from the end of Rise From The Ashes to before Dual Destinies. Somehow, somewhere along the way, Miles Edgeworth learns to stop looking back at shadows, and into what cast them in the first place. (COMPLETE)

Summary
Colin felt his stomach drop.
“Penelope,” he croaked out. “I was simply joking – I-I mean to say, it was nothing but gentlemen teasing each other-“
“And yet you thought it appropriate to condemn me to an unmarriageable status.” She continued harshly, mouth twisting up into a sneer. “You thought it acceptable that a man in your position, a part of the most influential family amongst the ton, should declare a young woman so unworthy of marriage that the thought itself was simply amusing. That to ensure that no bachelor would dare to be seen pursuing me and therefore sentence me to a life of a spinster. That is what you thought it fair to do.”
******
Somehow, Colin has seriously, completely, messed up.His best friend, his only real friend, is furious with him and he doesn't know how to fix this. How can you undo the kind of mistake he had made? How can you redeem yourself to a woman like Penelope Featherington? How can you tell her that you might actually love her instead?
Colin had a feeling this was not going to be easy.

Summary
Penelope swears that she will make it Aubrey Hall if it kills her. The universe takes up her challenge.
Sans carriage and caught in the worst storm that has struck England in living memory, Penelope bumps into a familiar face on the road (what a mystery who could it possibly be!). Their only hope of a shelter in the storm requires a degree of... creative... application of the truth and Penelope finds herself wondering how a young lady is to comport herself when the bounds of propriety have been all but swept away.
Enter Colin, who has a suggestion or two.

Summary
Penelope Featherington starts the new social season with a mission: To make Eloise Bridgerton forgive her for lying to her for literal years. This will not be helped by the fact that she has to bring back Lady Whistledown for good to secure her family's dire financial situation, but she still has to try. Eloise is her best friend after all!
Colin Bridgerton also has a mission: To make Penelope Featherington forgive him for telling the whole world she isn't marriage material. To ensure he succeeds, he comes up with a brilliant plan to get back into her good graces and get the happy-ever-after she deserves to boot. (Colin Bridgerton is an idiot.)
***
Continuation of season 2. Spoilers for season 2. TV-continuity. Season 3 speculation. Polin-centric with a hearty dash of Penloise-friendship.

16 Jun 2022
Tags
Summary
Following the season 2 finale in which Colin declares he would never dream of courting Penelope and Eloise discovers Pen's LW secret.
This is my idea for how a Polin-centered Season 3 could work, adapting the book as much as possible. Expect both very romantic Colin, self-denying Penelope, and supportive Bridgertons. If you're here for smut, proceed to chapters 13 and 16 (although chapter 9 dips its toes in the smut waters, somewhat, too). Enjoy!
(Just a head's up - I wrote this before the Season 3 synopsis was released, so you won't see any Colin teaching Penelope confidence in this one)- Language:

My Dearest, Penelope by annasometimeswrites

Summary
'My husband used to write me long love letters as well.'
Colin flinched, the pen slipping from his hand at the sound of her voice. The housekeeper stood over him, holding onto a silver tray.
‘I beg your pardon?’ he said.
***
OR:
Although Colin sends letters like clockwork, he receives no reply from his friend, Penelope Featherington.
Is this what it feels like to lose one's mind?

scherzo in f-sharp minor, for orchestra by astrhae

Tags
Summary
It was a truth universally acknowledged that an angel in possession of no memory must be in want of a wife.
No, that was the wrong book. The wrong line. Aziraphale frowned.
“What,” the gentleman before him asked, “and I mean what, are you doing here?”
-----------------
Or, two years after things fall apart, Aziraphale shows up at Crowley's doorstep without his memories. The easy part is getting it back, the hard part is getting them back together.
(Update: now featuring a cover by the wonderful @ineffableclassics!)

Summary
AU, retelling of “Beauty and the Beast”. Quite honestly, sending Aziraphale off into the forest to be held hostage by a giant snake in a cursed castle isn’t even the worst thing Gabriel’s ever done to him, and at least it means a change of scene. But then neither the snake nor the castle turn out to be quite what he’s expecting…

Summary
Because they can’t see each other more than once every few decades, Aziraphale suggests that he and Crowley write to each other to pass the time apart. As quills for their letters, they exchange wing feathers: a gesture of great intimacy that Crowley is convinced only he perceives the depth of. But time will tell that it’s not just him who sees it that way.

Summary
“I read the books about you,” Muriel said matter-of-factly.
Crowley wasn’t following. “The books about me?”
“The letter books to Aziraphale’s friend Diary? You must know them. They must be an angel, but I don’t think I’ve ever met them before.”
Crowley coughed heavily. “You’ve read Aziraphale’s diary?”

Summary
In the immediate aftermath of the Nope-Let's-Notpocalypse, Crowley and Aziraphale tentatively begin to move on, hoping Heaven and Hell will leave them alone in the wake of both of their failed trials.
Of course, nothing could possibly be that simple.
It isn't that Gabriel or Beelzebub have actually figured out how the trials were subverted...but boy, do they THINK they have it figured out. Thankfully, it won't take much to keep them in the dark.
(Crowley and Aziraphale just have to spend eternity together, pretending to be in love with each other. All Crowley needs to do is make sure Aziraphale never finds out that everything he's saying and doing is true.)

Summary
Crowley never talked about his time as an angel. Aziraphale never asked. But when Hell sends Crowley a package containing his most painful memories, it is Aziraphale who is plunged into the nightmare history of when his beloved friend, the angel who had once been Crowley, was hurled from the Heavens into the bowels of Hell.
