Misfortunes, we are told, have been sent to test our fortitude | Pride and Prejudice (1995)

the draw of arranged marriage AUs to me is really the way the dubcon of it all binds them together. neither of them have a choice in being here, something else is foisting this upon them whether that’s their parents or the political situation around them or expectation or something else, but the point is that they don’t get that one choice. so they have to make a choice somewhere else, that now that they’re here, they’re going to make it work. they’re each other’s only allies, in this cage built around them. they may have been coerced into swearing to stand by each other through anything, but they did swear.

it’s not love at first, or second, or third sight. it’s not love in the wedding bed the first time, whether they grit their teeth through it or decide together to forgo that binding step and try to get around it as long as they can. it’s about sharing a bed with a stranger while you learn their nightmares and how they hog the covers. it’s about sharing a name before you even know each other’s hobbies. the appearances you have to keep up, and the connection you find in both being exhausted by them, laughing together because isn’t it ridiculous how you not only have to be married but you have to act like it’s perfect and lovely for everyone else watching. it’s love that creeps up quiet and slow, between shared secrets that make your wedding bands mean something for the first time, and trying to protect each other from the trap you’re both in. and it’s about having the mortifying thought of “oh my god, i have a crush on my wife.”

first of all, there is a 99% chance this experiment will fail. so you know. fair warning and all that. but! as a tag-babbled earlier this week, I do want to try to build up to writing longer fiction because the muscles? they are weak. so I've come up with a plan. an experiment. an idea. in which I am going to set up a pseud on the ao3 where I will try to write/post something as I go, with the full understanding that once I finish I get to edit, backfill, etc., and then post the actual final version on my main account if I want. (I haven't decided what I'll do with the version I post in progress, but if I do decide to delete it I'd obviously give warning.) (alternately, I could use my long-ignored dreamwidth account, but part of the idea is the whole fandom community thing helping so I thought the ao3 made more sense.)

I don't know if having an audience as I go will help. I know it helps some people, so maybe it will help me too? and hopefully having the expectation be: this is hopefully not too typo-ridden (I doubt I'll ever be able to post without at least doing a SPAG review), but it is also not final final. I can fix it in post. we're all just enjoying the journey and all that jazz. hopefully people will enjoy it, and I will too? I don't know.

BUT I have a couple of WIP/ideas that could work for this sort of thing, and I honestly keep going back-and-forth between them. so:

which of these fic ideas should I try to write and post in progress?

Bridgerton 1: Violet & Agatha hook up while saying goodbye, V travels with A

Bridgerton 2: Violet & Agatha hook up during goodbye, V stays in England

ACGAS 2020: the Richard x Audrey x Siegfried post-s5 CS AU

okay that's it. (feel free to ask follow-up questions if you want—I know the poll option character limits made these a little vague, description-wise.)

If Bridgerton is going to keep having intimate, deeply emotional scenes with Agatha and Violet together at night in front of a fire, I’m going to need them to let them kiss about it already.

Agatha Christie’s Poirot 8x01 Evil Under the Sun

I know who you are. You’re Hercule Poirot and you must be Captain Hastings. Word’s got around that you were here. Now, don’t tell me. There’s been a gruesome murder somewhere and you think there’s a homicidal maniac lurking among the hotel guests.
