hope had nicely marinated in the jar by a_bookworm

Summary
And there she sat at the bottom of jar, head drooped over her legs, arms idly laid on her knees. Her eyes downcast, her lips pursed, her mind languidly flittered through scenes of the life before, the mediocrity of bygone times.
A short reimagination and reflection on Hope, represented through Elpis, left trapped in Pandora's Box (more accurately described as a jar), and her ruminations.

Marianne's Plea by Littlepearlfairy
Fandoms: Sense and Sensibility - Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility (1995), Sense and Sensibility (TV 2008)

Summary
Rumor and gossip surround Marianne after her embarrassing display at the ball.
Fearing for her and her sister's reputations, she runs to Colonel Brandon, begging him to marry her.
She quickly learns though that being his wife may not be as horrible as she'd once imagined.
In fact... it may be the best thing that has ever happened to her.
I picture the characters as the actors from the 2008 mini series, which if you haven't seen, GO DO IT DOWN! Incredible!

Summary
“I think you will find, Mr Ryder, that liberty in such situations tends to belong chiefly to the man - while the consequences are borne, quite literally in many cases, by the woman.”
Mary knows this all too well.
(Or - Mary was once fifteen and believed herself in love. The consequences will haunt her the rest of her life.)
