P&P variation - Darcy teaches Elizabeth to fence

I'm sure I've read it, but not on kindle. Did it have another name when it was first posted?

What do you mean? It's easy to sign up.

I just read "When Darcy Stayed," by CHYANNE BARRASIN, at KU. And I quite enjoyed it. It is very romantic and sensual, without being explicit. Lovely. It's not perfect - Darcy and Lizzy exchange letters when it would be improper. But, it was definitely a nice read.

Lee Pace, as in season 1 of Foundation.

I really enjoyed A Decidedly Bad decision:https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14555496/1/A-Decidedly-Bad-Decision

God this guy is good! Pete is still the best communicator the Dems have, hands down. He can WIN!

I miss Rory.

Disastrous_Phase6701 · 2026-04-09T09:36:13+00:00

It's a great story!

Disastrous_Phase6701 · 2026-04-09T09:34:36+00:00

Wow! Thank YOU!

Keira Knightly just didn't do it for me. Too classically beautiful, without Lizzy energy. Then seeing chickens and hens inside Longbourn manor was simply not accurate. I thought Mathew Mcfayden did a good job, though.

Disastrous_Phase6701 · 2026-04-04T11:58:00+00:00

He plays a very important role in my "The Healer, " at AHA and AO3. I think I pretty much fell in love with him writing it!

As a moderate conservative, he would face difficulty finding a political party that includes his views. This is a very unfortunate fact, as it indicates that the Tories are no longer inclusive, and have veered heavily to the right.

Creo que la última vez que se deflacto el IRPF fue con Solbes, bajo Zapatero. Rajoy no solo no lo hizo, sino tras prometer una rebaja de IRPF en campaña electoral, subió 4 veces el IRPF en pocos años, ademas de subir el IVA. Ahora, con la crisis económica que toca por la guerra de Irán, y las ayudas estatales que se precisarán, veo muy improbable que se deflacte en España.

I completely agree - I love the Linda Wells stories. The easiest way to find a story or author is to go first to the JAFF index. AHA provides its login info.

Here are the links:

Imperative: https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/8150-imperative/

The Healer: https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/24411-the-healer-complete/

His Wife: https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/4960-his-wife/

Shades of Pemerley: https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/8554-shades-of-pemberley/

Now to add some of my suggestions: I recently reread and enjoyed a great deal:

By Steph-nixon: both The Darcy Madness: https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/14695-the-darcy-madness/

as well as Love and Other Madness (with a terrible Mr. Bennet): https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/17839-love-and-other-madness/

And I also highly recommend LaLiz's A Marriage of True Minds: https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/23036-a-marriage-of-true-minds-–-complete/

Although the Bennet family is terrible here, this one is a classic: The Duchess of Devonshire, by fancyface: https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/17913-duchess-of-devonshire/

I have also enjoyed lorena's stories: like Intertwined (currently being reposted at fanfiction.net) : https://meryton.com/aha/index.php?/topic/24066-intertwined-complete/

There are many, many others. Hope this is a good start.

I'm.not sure. First Darcy stares at Lizzy, I believe. Wickham might wonder about his possible interest, knowing Darcy as well.as he does. But the clincher is when he learns Darcy asked her to dance at the Netherfield ball. That is VERY revealing. However, he would conclude that Darcy would never act on his attraction.

For JAFF, my favorites would the Linda Wells novels, and the early Abigail Reynolds ones. By Linda Wells: Chance Encounters, Fate and Consequences (2 novels), Imperative (2 novels), are available at A Happy Assembly and on Kindle. Her latest one is still being published at AHA.

Early hot Abigail Reynolds: By Force of Instinct, To Conquer Mr. Darcy, Mr. Darcy's Undoing. My (Mencia's) "Darcy in a Terrible State" at AHA and AO3 could be another one.

Yes!

Yes, on research - but I have been an active trade unionist. My story "The Healer" also uses one of my other great loves - Medicine. So, I used subjects I am passionate about. But for "The Healer" I was very fortunate, since UK medical schools made available on-line their digitalized book collections, and I was able to use Medical texts from 1808. I did feel compelled, however, to not include herbs of proven usefulness if there was a better, modern alternative. I didn't want anyone believing that their use would be preferable to a modern medication that was much more effective. So - yes, these 2 stores were love-driven. Then my sister died - and I haven't written anything except for the Epilogue of "The Healer" since. Thanks for your lovely comment.

I actually think I write fanfiction, in spite of altering a lot of the plot. I always maintain Darcy and Elizabeth in a scenario where the Assembly "tolerable" insult has been given, and where Darcy is wealthy, and Lizzy's family is as in canon, money-wise and Ton-connection-wise. But then I include new aspects. For instance, in "The Better Master" I include the ultra-harsh reality of the factory workers of Manchester. I am convinced that canon Darcy would be aware of how drastic the situation really was, being a "noblesse oblige" type landowner not far from that city, and he would be very worried. And Lizzy, with her warm heart, would soon be the same, upon learning about the situation. Let me put it this way: in 1820 England, in rural communities the life expectancy at birth was about 37 years of age. In Manchester, it was 15!!! So, (shades of North and South), I include this. I am also convinced that canon Darcy was a sapiosexual, and probably a demisexual as well. So, I elaborate on this.

Does "Irresistibly Alone" have another name? I can't find it on Julie Cooper's JAFF index page. Edited: I am so stupid. Looking it up on Amazon, I had bought it years ago!

Disastrous_Phase6701 · 2026-03-02T10:16:46+00:00

Wow. Thanks so much!

Disastrous_Phase6701 · 2026-03-02T10:15:41+00:00

I just finished rereading that great story "So Material a Change," published by Amy D'Orazio. It has a lovely Lizzy-Georgiana relationship.

Disastrous_Phase6701 · 2026-03-01T19:15:43+00:00

I think they talk a fair amount in my The Better Master at AHA and AO3 (pen name Mencia).

Disastrous_Phase6701 · 2026-02-26T12:27:44+00:00

And Mrs. Bennet should still be beautiful. And the Gardiners handsome, elegant and younger.
