For all it was a scandal, it felt a lot more like enchantment.
"Younger sons cannot marry where they like." - Col Fitzwilliam (Pride & Prejudice)
~
There’s little use in being a gentleman when you’re the younger son of a younger son. In fact, the person with the greatest chance of succeeding around here is Ginevra (if only she’d be reasonable).
But the willful sons and daughter of Burrough House in Devonshire may just find their way with a little nerve and a lot of heart (and some very unladylike behaviour).

(A Regency-era Muggle AU)

With everything in life, there is a season. And they are always changing.
Maria Wynstone is mostly content with a quiet life at her family's country estate, but as the daughter of a gentleman farmer, she knows that a few bad seasons can make all the difference to one's circumstances. And Maria has had her fair share of bad seasons in Town, to make her never wish to quit there again.
Arthur Colbourne does not mind the law per se, but an embarrassing bumble in court rattles his confidence to the point where he questions all he's ever worked for. However, when his Uncle Wallace unexpectedly dies and he inherits the estate, Arthur finds himself thrust into a role that he is quite underprepared for, particularly when he meets the daughter of his new neighbour, Miss Maria Wynstone.
Drawn to her quiet charms, Arthur finds himself feeling things he's never experienced before. And when the delightful Miss Wynstone receives startling news about her brother, Gerry, Arthur cannot help but offer his services to help her find the truth of what happened to him. As the hunt for Gerry reaches a critical turning point, both Maria and Arthur are confronted not only for their growing feelings for one another, but also ghosts from their pasts. They must then find a way to move beyond their individual failings, should they want to succeed together.

"I have something to ask you," Iain says one afternoon. He reaches over Sirius to turn down the radio - which Sirius pouts at him for, as he'd been listening to that song, thank you very much. Iain just rolls his eyes fondly and plants a kiss on his forehead, which does, predictably, make him stop pouting. His heart wasn't in it anyway.
"What's up?" he replies, sounding impressively relaxed for someone who's catastrophizing as hard as he is.
"Would you laugh at me if I asked you on a date?"
... Okay, that wasn't one of the questions he'd been anticipating.

If there’s one thing Iain misses about Dublin, it’s waking up in the morning to the sun rising over the Liffey. His family’s flat wasn’t right on the river, but it was close enough that if he peeked out his window and angled his head just so, he could get a glimpse of soft orange sunlight sparkling on the water.
He reflects on this as he stands there looking out his window, the overflowing bins and suspicious stain in the alleyway looking exactly the same as always. Fitting for a perfectly ordinary morning — except that he’s not having one of those, because Sirius had stayed for breakfast.
...Sirius had stayed for breakfast, after showing up last night and telling him in a panic that people are trying to kill him.
He doesn’t know why he expected the alleyway to look different.

All this nonsense about me being a hero is crap. Just because I’ve been through hell and back doesn’t make me a hero.
I’m not a hero; I’m a survivor.
