Standing On Deck
rating: mature’ish? there’s a...scene? in anthony’s office? word count: 9.2k note: um, hi, it’s me. i wrote a thing. a thing that is mostly for @shireness-says because she sent a prompt when i was desperately trying to fill those prompts last month, but if you all want to read it too, i think that’s swell. this is maybe, possibly, totally based on real life and if any of you tell my husband that, i will deny it until my final breath. obviously, it also includes sports.

He laughs.
Sort of. Some noise comes from the general vicinity of his nose. One side of his mouth tilts up, too. Purely against his will, which is unfortunate since he doesn’t have a schnapps-fueled excuse. Just the sort of explicit feelings that have seemingly turned him into a crazy person who—
Texts
With
Regularity.
Only to discover, in a cloud of raspberry schnapps and something indeterminately sticky beneath his right shoe (only his right shoe), that his team’s social media manager, who also happens to be his girlfriend, best friend, fian, love of his goddamn life is holding back. On their texting agreement.
A texting understanding.
An equitable relationship built on trust, support, and mutual knowledge of their collective interests.
He sends. She sends. Updates. Questions about what they should eat for dinner. Decisions to order Thai for dinner instead of actually making anything. Information about the team. Little jokes about the team. Stats from other teams. Links. Meme screenshots. Popular tweets that Anthony finds on other sites because he resolutely refuses to join Twitter, but knows will make that specific sort of scrunch appear on the bridge of Kate’s nose. He might live for that specific sort of scrunch.
This was not supposed to be lopsided. As it apparently is.

Just Love Me
A Kate and Anthony Fanfic. Thank you to @ladykatebridgerton for editing!!
They don't make it to the wedding. It's raining that morning in the woods when Kate begs Anthony to go on with it. Only Kate leaves first, and Anthony has a bad feeling.
Read on AO3
It started to rain as Kate stood there, watching Anthony, pleading for him to do as she asked and marry her sister. The raindrops rolling down her face gave her leave for her tears to fall, hiding in plain sight amongst them.
Kate felt as if her heart was being ripped from her chest. He would do it. He would marry Edwina, and Edwina would be happy.
And Kate would go back to India and be free of the viscount and her feelings.
Before Anthony could move, she turned and quickly walked to her horse. She almost slipped as she mounted, and then she fled.
“K-Miss Sharma!” Anthony yelled after her, but she couldn’t bring herself to wait. She had to be anywhere but here. It was too painful. She rode faster, not caring about the rain pelting her in the face. She needed speed. And not to think about Anthony and her sister.
Somewhere in her mind, she realized she should slow down. The ground was already saturated from the night before, and puddles were already forming. Just a little further, and she would turn back to Lady Danbury’s....

pairing: anthony x kate
summary: Fire Escape Neighbors AU
“You’re not Colin.”
“I’m not,” Anthony agrees, hardly sparing her a glance. “Indeed, many find that to be my most appealing attribute.”
The fact that he has many obviously appealing attributes has never been lost on Kate.
rating: explicit
notes: absolutely 100% the result of @bemusedbicycle and @wedlakegoose being cheerleaders/enablers. beautiful, beautiful enablers.

My goodness. I need some Kate/Anthony fic. Got recs?
We are severely lacking in the fic department, but I got you all. These are all the ones I’ve read and enjoyed. (I’m personally not a fan of AUs with regency couples so I don’t gravitate towards those.) These will all lead you straight to the ao3 tag.

Also @apreciouslife is my go-to fic gal right now with recs (thank goodness!) and I have a few things I still need to read, but if you need more, I’m sure she can provide!
kathony fic prompt/idea: incorporates the book scene where kate finally gives anthony her blessing to court and possibly marry edwina but anthony doesnt know what to do with that and is all confused when he doesnt necessarily feel good to get kate’s approval anymore
kate gets all distant as he keeps trying to talk to her several times after, so when it comes time for the show!proposal, he chickens out of proposing to edwina and turns to kate instead
u kno what i think i can actually try writing this too lol come back after a month
hii! if you're still taking prompts for Bridgerton - maybe show!Kate having a wee bit of a meltdown during a storm and Anthony comforting her?? idk poor girl deserves some support, this season was r o u g h on her. wishing you lots of fun with your writing!!!
eyy thank you for the prompt!!!! okay this admittedly kinda got away from me since more than anthony comforting kate, i used it to portray what i would have expected kate to act like in the show and why kate was so scared of storms in the first place (since i dont think the show portrayed her trauma well)
yea this is only the second time ive written fanfiction EVER and its been a long time since the last, so i hope o did well enough 😭 i certainly enjoyed writing it though hihi
Say it Again
Summary: Anthony learning that he is deserving of Kate’s love and fully grasping it isn’t an overnight fix. (I suck at summaries.)
A/N: In which I’ve been wrestling with this idea since this summer and thanks to one of my favorite humans who promised to write fic if I’d do it, so we’re here with what’s more like a whole bunch of feelings on Kate and Anthony. Much shock.
You tear me up and wreck my dreams I hold your hand when I'm asleep I don't mind falling for a lifetime 'Cause you break my heart right
Anthony Bridgerton loves his wife. Theirs was, without question, a love match.
Although he spent quite some time denying it and doing everything in his power not to fall for her, he’d been failing miserably since many would argue from the first moment he laid eyes on her.
Kate Sheffield, now Viscountess Bridgerton, fell deeper in love with her husband after every passing day.
There’d be no more secrets between the two of them after the viscount finally shared the paralyzing fears of his mortality but conquering one’s demons would not be an overnight fix—no matter how adoring and supportive one’s wife is.
And especially when said wife means more to him than life itself. It’s now a different kind of fear.
A desperation rather, for love at this caliber was new to him and thus, staggering intimacy almost crippled him to his bones.
Everything was different with Kate, for Kate, because of Kate.
A bone chilling fear brought on after Kate’s accident that any moment, she could be taken from him. A fear that she couldn’t possibly love him as much as he loved her. A fear that time, no matter how long, past 38 even wouldn’t be enough.
Was he worth it?
Did he even deserve her?
