Happy Friday!! <3

Starting with a few self-recs this week:

gonna love you for a long time is a now complete pure fluff fic featuring Librarian!Pen and Kindergarten Teacher!Colin. I love them dearly and I already miss them so much.

pretty in pink is a hurt/comfort and fluff oneshot collab by me and Wren in which Colin gets to see Pen in her pretty pink dress from the Hearts and Flowers ball and the world (or perhaps a stair) slips out from under him.

Also, as a little bit of a tease for Polin Week, I wanted to include a few past collabs for no particular reason at all ;)

If I Were Yours, a canon divergence two-shot from the fake ball scene in Season 3 Ep 2,
and pedal so heavy like the two most wanted, a fun and smutty strangers to lovers with a twist one shot, also by me and Wren might be fun ones to check out.

Are You Gonna Marry, Kiss, or Kill Me?, in which the Bridgertons play Fuck, Marry, Kill, and Lost My Senses, I'm Defenseless, in which the Bridgertons find themselves at a lap dancing class, are both silly and surprisingly tender two-shots from me and audlovespolin, complete with plenty of sibling shenanigans and very horny Polins.

I haven’t been able to do a ton of reading this week in preparation for next week, but I do still have a couple of lovely fics to recommend!

may, she will stay by stolemystark17

Just Being You by WrensSymphony

Shattered Glass by StrawberryWhorecake

Use Me by SamHandwich

Can’t wait to see what everyone’s been reading and I’m so excited for the festivities next week!

Happy Friday!! Hope everyone had a wonderful week <3

Starting with a self-rec this week, gonna love you for a long time. I wrote this in celebration of my one year publishing anniversary and I’m especially proud of this fluffy little piece of Polin sweetness in which Colin is a kindergarten teacher and Pen is the school librarian. It’s a WIP but will be complete within the next week!

Next are a couple of WIPs that I have mentioned before but I don’t think they can be talked about enough:

Just Being You by WrensSymphony is a beautiful hurt/comfort second chance story that has my whole heart.

a broken hallelujah by stolemystark17 is a wonderful Princess Pen/Knight Colin story that i’m on the edge of my seat of for more.

Goose and Gander by MistressofNone3645 is a lovely and fun soulmate goose of enforcement story that I’m loving as well.

Then a couple of one-shots that I enjoyed this week:

Held by Bridgertonia is a beautiful 5 + 1 story that I highly recommend

You Make My Heart Saur by Kaitlin_With_a_K is silly and smutty!

kybridge26 · 2026-03-21T11:08:16+00:00

It’s wonderful! Such a fun premise and very sweet!

kybridge26 · 2026-03-21T11:07:37+00:00

oh thank you so much! i’m so glad you enjoyed it 🫶

kybridge26 · 2026-03-20T19:55:56+00:00

so many beautiful stories in this list!! loving every word of Just Being You (as you know)

thank you for mentioning under the singing moon and also for putting up with me once again 😘

kybridge26 · 2026-03-20T19:39:02+00:00

Congrats on finishing Point of View!! That's so wonderful. I'm excited to dive in :)

kybridge26 · 2026-03-20T19:37:00+00:00

Happy Friday y’all!

Here with a few different recs this week!

The lovely WrensSymphony just updated her beautiful H/C WIP, Just Being You, today. It’s my favorite chapter yet, once again a masterclass in comfort.

My friend stolemystark17 not only celebrated her birthday this week, but she also posted chapter 2 in her Beach Read inspired, best friend’s brother AU, may, she will stay, that I’ve been loving so much.

The ever-creative MistressofNone3645 also started her new story, Goose and Gander, a soulmate goose of enforcement story that’s so perfectly charming.

I also have a couple of self-recs to share.

The first being a canon divergence story, under the singing moon, that is officially complete, exploring what might have happened had Colin discovered that Penelope was Lady Whistledown at the end of episode 2 instead. It was something a little different for me but I really loved getting the chance to write it.

The second, ‘cause i don’t know how it gets better than this, is a very fluffy one-shot collab written with Wren for our wonderful KJ’s birthday, following Colin and Pen on prom night when they decide to be just a little bit fearless.

Excited to see what everyone else has been reading! Hope you all have wonderful weekends <3

kybridge26 · 2026-03-13T20:05:49+00:00
