    Summary

    I’ve written:
    Nope to Ryder at the summit
    Nope to Ryder even interrupting
    Nope to Ryder swimming out to them

    Now I give you:
    Nope to Tom riding off on his horse because Mr Edward Gardiner is having none of it.

    Summary

    He'd heard about it before, in whispers from the sort of men who went to gentlemen's clubs and brothels. An act that was pleasurable for the woman, though perhaps debasing for the man. 

    Tom didn't think it could be. 

    It was a hunger that lived deep inside him, and he needed to satisfy it desperately. 

    AKA: Tom wants to go down on Mary. Badly.

    Summary

    In the early days of his marriage to Elizabeth, Mr Darcy meditates on the very great pleasure which a pair of fine eyes in the face of his pretty wife can bestow... especially when abed.

    Tom stood quite still on the threshold, breath coming in distracted puffs. Before him lay the evidence of his weakness, his inability to provide and protect, and proof that he had no right to propose to her.

    Summary

    Perhaps Ryder would take her on another hike, a better hike, where it wouldn’t rain and no one would interrupt them. Or better yet, he might propose in view of her mother, that she could never again belittle Miss Bennet, or pass judgements on her, for Ryder was a match that would please any discerning mama. (Tom was not, for he had nothing he had not toiled for.) Perhaps they would have a fleeting engagement, and request special permissions to marry as soon as possible, that they might leave for Italy immediately. Perhaps there she might forget about Tom, and about the conversation on the lake, and on the mountain, while drinking sweet wines and breathing sea air. Perhaps that was for the best.

    Episode 10, from Tom’s point of view

    Summary

    The voice decidedly did not belong to Miss Baxter. It was, however, infuriatingly familiar.

    Thomas Hayward—a junior barrister aiming for a promotion, a poetry enthusiast, a newly made husband, a man of generally affable nature—saw red.

    Summary

    Mary Hayward didn’t know what to expect out of her wedding night. Had she done extensive research on it? Of course! Did she know what she was supposed to do? Maybe…? Was she expecting to find a brand new spring green sexy nightgown waiting for her on her luggage? Absolutely not! But fret not, dear Mary, for you still don’t know that Mr. Hayward’s favorite color is also spring green.

    Summary

    And Tom had just a second to decide. Because he could sit and wallow and sulk as Ryder ruined his plans as he seemed so intent to do. He could allow Ryder to join them, to no doubt return to his vigorous efforts to charm Mary, to remind him of all the ways in which his friend might be a better husband to the woman he loved than he would be.
    Or he could seize what little time he had left.

    Summary

    Tom Hayward and Mary Bennet were very happy to be engaged, even if the Gardiners had decided that they had to be chaperoned at all times now.

    But it was quite fine, they were going to be married in a few weeks, they could tolerate it and behave themselves. Couldn’t they?
    -
    Or in which Tom pulls an Anthony Bridgerton and after repeating “I am a gentleman” multiple times his restraint finally snaps.

    I have been loving all these fix-it fics and so I thought I’d contribute my own humble attempt!

    Ch 2: Ryder attempts to interrupt. Mary politely declines.

    Ch 3: Ryder swims out toward the boat. Mary tells Tom to seize the oars and row.

    Summary

    Another imagining of the final chapters of Pride and Prejudice.

    In this variation, Elizabeth never hears the truth of Darcy’s involvement in Lydia and Wickham’s wedding from Lydia or the Gardiners, and Lady Catherine never comes to call. Instead, Elizabeth and Darcy must resolve their feelings without this external assistance. And when Darcy and Bingley come to call at Longbourn, a suggestion from Mrs. Bennet that they go walking leads to an earlier and more open conversation between Elizabeth and Darcy.

    Mary has never shared a bed in her life. And for the past three nights, she finds herself lying awake watching her husband sleep, instead of sleeping happily beside him as she should be. She consulted chamomile. Tom notices. He has a theory about it. And perhaps a remedy or two.
