Summary
Colin has grown accustomed to his wife’s replies. In fact, he likes them very much. Sometimes, he believes he knows them better than he knows his own self:
Yes, darling.
Do not be foolish, Colin.
Dearest, could you fetch Elliot’s rattle?
It is only when they move their effects back to Penelope’s childhood home that he learns there are some she has yet kept back from him.
For those unaware, emotional intimacy very much turns them on.

Summary
“Dearest,” his mother’s voice comes out a little louder. The hand on his arm squeezes in emphasis. Colin drags his eyes away from the beautiful vision of his fiancée— his fiancée! — and looks towards his mother.
“I got Humboldt to fetch you a cravat. I thought you might want to be fully dressed before we escort Miss Featherington home.” His mother presses a plain white scrap of cloth into Colin’s limp hand.
“Home?” Colin inquires, at a complete loss to his mother’s meaning. Penelope is home. He already escorted her up from the street and into Bridgerton House. Pen's cloak is already settled in the closet amongst their own.
OR
A tiny introspective about what occurs after Colin announces his engagement to his family in the Bridgerton drawing room. In which he is mostly being a pouty loverboi about having to say goodbye to Pen.

Summary
During his travels Penelope and Colin talk. A lot. They text and exchange emails and the occasional phone or video call if the time zone allows it. But now, face to face, Colin can feel that Penelope seems distant, like she’s putting some kind of wall between them. He tries to rationalise it as a result of her having trouble coexisting with so many Bridgertons, so he gives her time. But as days go by, Colin can’t help but feel like he doesn’t truly know Penelope now.
OR
Confined at Aubrey Hall during the pandemic, Colin has to confront the fact that he doesn't seem to know Penelope as well as he thought when he discovers that she has been the Bridgertons' official hairdresser for years.

Summary
The image of Colin so badly wounded is horrifying, and Penelope hears herself letting out a choked gasp when she finally manages to take a breath.
“Pen, hello,” Colin says from the chair near the entrance where his men have seated him, smiling through his pain. The kindness in his tone, despite how badly hurt he is, makes tears immediately spring to Penelope’s eyes. “I am fine,” he repeats, reaching with his good hand towards her.
It is not the first time Colin Bridgerton falls off a horse, but this time it is infinitely worse. His injuries not only put an early end to his travels, they also prevent him from doing barely anything. Colin is fortunate to spend his recovery at Aubrey Hall surrounded by his family and Penelope during the off-season, but soon, he gets tired of his boring reality. He is happy enough to spend time with his dear friend and family, but his brain is restless, and with that restlessness comes a memory: what was it that Penelope wanted to tell him right before he departed for his travels?

Summary
“I wish we truly were sisters,” Hyacinth murmured dreamily.
“Oh, I should like that very much as well,” Felicity laughed, “though I suspect Gregory would not share our enthusiasm.”
“If we were sisters…” Hyacinth murmured, thinking aloud, “perhaps it might truly be possible.”
Felicity watched Hyacinth’s thoughts race ahead of her, eyes bright with sudden purpose. “Oh no, no—absolutely not.”
“I still have unmarried brothers.”
“I will not marry Gregory just so we may be sisters!” Felicity exclaimed.
“Ugh, no,” Hyacinth said with a shudder. “I was thinking of another Featherington.”
“Pen?”
“Penelope, mm-hmm,” Hyacinth nodded, a wide smile spreading across her face.
Felicity stared at her as though she had quite lost her senses. Hyacinth leaned closer. “Listen, close your eyes and imagine it. Penelope becoming a Bridgerton. You and I spending entire weekends in their new home. The holidays, the celebrations, everything, together. You and I, sisters.”Or: How Felicity and Hyacinth attempt to become real sisters, accidentally drive Colin mad with jealousy, and unleash his most chaotic Era yet.

Summary
When forty year old Colin meets a vibrant twenty three year old Penelope at a restaurant bar, he tries to avoid her advances, before giving in entirely.
--
When she pulls back, he mourns the loss, but then she asks, “do you want to kiss me?”
And in that moment, he remembers how young she is. He looks down into her eyes, and sees the uncertainty. The bravado, confidence, it teeters on a knife's edge, a balancing act of substantial proportions. She needs him to take over.
The first brush of their lips together sends a shiver down his spine. It’s soft, sweet, tentative, and when she moans against his mouth, something inside of him snaps. He grabs her face between his hands, holding it steady while he devours her. Their tongues become embroiled with one another, and the sounds she’s making—god—he wants to eat her alive, all of a sudden. When he feels her body pressed into his, her soft breasts rubbing against his torso, his arousal spikes. But this isn’t his first rodeo. He’s not twenty three.
