The Highwayman struck again, this time robbing Lord and Lady Cowper. The police arrest a suspect and the public want to see The Highwayman hang for his crimes.

Eloise can’t watch him hang. She’d rather tie the noose around her own neck.

Theloise: 2x07

This scene occurs the morning after Anthony's "failed nuptials"...and also the morning after Eloise confessed her feelings to Theo and he set aside books for her to "share her thoughts on". I can't help but wonder if the book she's reading here is one of the books he set aside for her?

This scene follows immediately after, and it's obvious she's on her way to meet Theo (my girl's practically skipping lol). Perhaps she wanted to meet Theo and "share her thoughts" on the book she was reading? The book that he gave her?

Here's a snippet of the final chapter of my WIP: The Manuscript! Planning on posting later today.

“i don’t know why people think it isn’t helly. it’s helly.” adam scott being totally done with all the nonsensical takes is why i love him (x)

A ship dynamic I find interesting is super protective x super reckless.

The reckless one doesn't care about throwing themself into danger, because they just know that their partner will always be there to protect them from anything bad that could happen to them.

Can lead to a situation in which their partner simply can't be there to save them in time or is very late to do it, so they finally realize that they're also hurting their partner by putting themself constantly in dangerous situations.

I feel like I'm just yapping into the void.

If I were to describe Bridgerton in one picture

It would be this one

“Theo travelled to Staffordshire with his master's old suitcase and a letter all for the sake of securing an investment from a Baron he'd never heard of in the hopes of completing his apprenticeship with flourish.

However, Baron Stafford is a known eccentric and more surprises await him in the Potteries than he could have ever expected.”

a thing with feathers. by sondersoflight

canon divergent from the end of s2, rated G, oneshot (3.1K)

“He feels inadequate seeing her like this – the last couple of weeks he has been able to almost forget the invisible ocean that exists between them. Now he is too aware of his shabby clothes and his ink-stained hands. Eloise is lovelier than any flower he has seen. And she would probably roll her eyes if he were to say so out loud.”

The Fine Print by theloise

post-canon-ish(?), rated G, oneshot collection

“Sometimes, Benedict cannot help but miss the little girl who used to chase him through the halls of Bridgerton House -- the tiny, blue-eyed baby who pulled incessantly at his hair. But Eloise is more than that now; her heart beats large, and open, and wide. And it has expanded to include -- of all people -- a poor, radical printer's apprentice.

And he cannot stop it. He does not want to stop it.
