Summary
Sophie thinks Benedict might be the most beautiful boy ever. Boys aren’t meant to be beautiful; they’re meant to be harsh lines like her father, people who only smile when you’ve won it.
But this boy smiles with his whole face, his eyes crinkling up, and she basks in it.
He leans forward, like he’s going to tell a secret. “You should be in the movies.”
She thinks about it. Her name, in bright lights. Getting to be a part of the magic she sees on her screen. “Not yet.”
And that is not a bad place to start the story.

Taash doesn’t understand the Lighthouse.
They can hardly escape conversations. They go up to the balcony, and Emmrich wants to talk about dead people. They stand behind the caretaker, and Davrin wants to show off Assan. They stand in the library, and Harding wants to discuss mothers.
But when Taash wants company, everyone seems to vanish.

Summary
“I must be growing on you, Basset,” Anthony said. “I’ve never heard you ask anyone a personal question.”
“I do not care much for those dolts either,” Simon said.
It stole a laugh out of Anthony, and Simon could only think he wanted to do it, again and again, to see that somber expression on the man’s face shift. There was a man buried beneath the one Simon had come to know, a man who could joke around and smile and act like the weight of the world was not on his shoulders.
Simon had not even realized he had noticed all these things about Anthony Bridgerton.
But it became a habit, staying up late to talk to Anthony, and Simon did not particularly care what that might mean.

Summary
“Why are you stalking Cressida Cowper?” Penelope says.
Eloise cannot tell if her best friend is disgusted by it—because she doesn’t want Eloise to even care about their old school bully, although she was always more of Penelope’s bully—or if she is secretly delighted. “I ran into her at the coffeeshop the other day. She said, get this? She said we should catch up. Like we’re old friends.”
“God, can you imagine catching up with Cressida Cowper?” Penelope shakes her head. “What would she tell you about?”
“I don’t even know what she does,” Eloise admits, swiping through Cressida’s Instagram.
Her Instagram doesn’t give a lot of information if she’s being honest. Or it doesn’t give any good information.
There’s Cressida on a beach in Italy, posing with her glossy, perfect hair down (and Eloise doesn’t remember her hair being down in high school; she remembers it being up in elaborate twists or a strangely misshapen bun). She has sunglasses on, and she poses in a way that shows off just how attractive she is. Like she’s daring everyone to look at her and see anything else.

Summary
Edmund learned how to love with Anthony.
In many ways, he thinks it might be unfair to the rest of his children, the way his whole world opened up the second he met Anthony, the second Violet pressed the smallest, most beautiful person into his arms with a tired smile. He still remembers thinking that he would break his son by accident as he held him.
But he looked down at Anthony, and he knew his life would never be the same.
Now, his son is eighteen years old.
Now, his son is a grown man.

make the friendship bracelets; take the moment and taste it (Bridgerton Modern AU) by darkesky
Fandom Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn
10 Jun 2024
Summary
A Modern Bridgerton AU that pretty much follows the canon of the books but makes it more realistic for the modern world (such as, they will not be married two months after meeting each other for the first time, that is literally insane) :) in a perfect world, it will cover all 8 siblings with all 8 relationships, but we will go until the muse gives out on us!

Summary
Buck is fucking frozen. His mouth is dry, and his brain is blank except for oh no, oh fuck reverberating in his frontal lobe. He can’t answer. He feels the pressure against the metaphorical closet door, the hinges creaking against the weight of the boxes crashing down.
“Are those… hearing aids?” He registers Eddie's voice through the ringing in his ears.
It takes him a moment before he can finally whisper it out. He feels his head nod against his will.
“Yeah.”
The door gives out.
or: how a conversation about tardigrades results in buck grappling with a disability he's suppressed, getting hearing aids, and realizing that the family he craves has been there for him all along. in that order.
