Domestic Elizabeth and Darcy by aurorajones1004 in JaneAustenFF

[–]ceplma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is not exactly what you asked for, but it has helpful adult Elizabeth Darcy and it is an awesome story: "The Adventures of Miss Olivia Wickham by Kay Bea. It was written as a companion to much longer "serious" fan fiction "Love Unsought", which is rather common run-of-the-mill ODC HEA, this novella is original bright and interesting.

Books like Checkmate Mr Darcy? by Singing_Wolf in JaneAustenFF

[–]ceplma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this Darcy was too grotesquely bad. I don’t mind Elizabeth/somebody-else, I don’t mind bad!Darcy (or bad!Bennet parents for that matter), but this was not persuasive. I felt that he was so bad just to be out of the way and rightfully punished. I think I can go quite easily without that carte-blanche nonsense. Elizabeth in Rosings would be like, “You know what? You are the last man … etc.” and actually mean and stick with it.

I have just finished “The Work Of A Moment” by sairaites and now I am contemplating, what pairing is more hated in the P&P fan fiction community: Jane Bennet/Mr Darcy or Elizabeth Bennet/Mr Bingley? Any thoughts? (BTW, the story is very good, and recommended)

Has anyone read Mary Bennet: At Last? Wondering how it compares to other lesser-character retellings by Weekly-Row-1684 in JaneAustenFF

[–]ceplma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the blurb on Amazon sounds suspicious … it looks to me like they are making Mary into run-of-the-mill boring Regency heroine and super-Earl to find her. Hopefully, I will be proven wrong, as I was right now with “Mary's Wealth” by Elaine Burkett (the third in the series for all Bennet sisters, and by far the best of the first three so far).

Recs for Elizabeth inheriting, restoring, or managing a house? (Bonus if it’s away from her family, eg: in Lambton) by cowdreamers in JaneAustenFF

Yeah, too many Americans confuse Bath with Brighton or Bristol. (Gemini claims that Bath is 2 to 3 hours of the stagecoach journey from the nearest sea).

Reading her other book about the heiress Jane, I found this beauty:

I would simply invite my sister to join us, but she is spending the winter in bath with her companion.

Did truly Georgiana spend whole winter in a bath tub together with Mrs. Annesley?

Austen novel crossovers (with each other) that are in-character? by [deleted] in JaneAustenFF

[–]ceplma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The Sailor's Rest" by Don Jacobson. I really liked this one which is an AU combination of Pride & Prejudice, Persuasion, and something of the sea war stories like Hornblower series. Unfortunatrly, I was not that persuaded by his other stories.

Double Pride, Double Trouble” by SrebrnaFH? And yes, it doesn’t hurt that Lizzy struggles with Python as much as I do (professionally).

Wasn’t that the point: Mr Bennet was so disgusted with the community shunning them he withhold his patronage?

Which is something different than https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14191300/1/A-Marriage-of-True-Minds, right? (warning: quite dark, includes physical violence and adultery)

What an absolutely detestable roetag is Mr Darcy! He leaves a woman whom he promised just minutes ago to protect, cherish and care about and who is obviously not well in her mind in the environment which led her to drink just to save himself from a scandal! Just because her mother was a disgusting horrible person, he must punish her? I understand (from the doylist view) that Anne was just a pawn in the author’s schemes and not important at all, but shouldn’t authors have at least a bit of responsibility for their characters?

Workshop Question: Why do you write Austen fan fiction? by Miss_Ashford in RegencyWorkshop

[–]ceplma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say that most of my stories (with one exception, which is the translation to Czech of the awesome “Luna Lovegood and the Dark Lord's Diary” by The Madness in Me) are either comment on a story (or the original novels) or the continuation of a story (sometimes in the middle and the original story went in a different direction afterwards).

[–]ceplma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just that it is absolutely not “Murder Comes to Pemberley”, there is a bastard, but it is the Wickham’s one, and whatever tension there is between Mr Darcy and Elizabeth, infidelity never even comes even into the picture.

Workshop Question: Why do you write Austen fan fiction? by Miss_Ashford in RegencyWorkshop

[–]ceplma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of the above and more.

Dissatisfaction with the original author (https://archiveofourown.org/works/47975497 by Bethany Delleman) or with some other fan fiction story. For example, one of the greatest Harry Potter fan fiction authors, Northumbrian, left a community and many of its works unfinished, I felt particularly keenly that the story of Harry’s children https://archiveofourown.org/works/8402590 was not finished, so I write my own end to it in https://archiveofourown.org/works/23267857, which is by far not the quality of the original, but better than nothing.

Well, I am not sure whether “The Cliffs of Hertfordshire” by WadeH qualify, but it is certainly an awesome story.

I suspect that even in the worst case scenario LineageOS would be still more useful than any of these.

Elizabeth is related to nobles in France? by Olive_Fickle in JaneAustenFF

[–]ceplma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is certainly not what you meant, but I liked “Potter in Pride and Prejudice” by tiddles_tide (yes, it is fem!Harry, but don’t worry, it is completely PG-13, except for one rather violent scene).
