@eighthbrn liked for a starter [let me know if you wanted Sophie instead!]

Rosa needed a moment of respite from the crowd, unused to being around so many people at an event in which she was meant to act immpeccably or be judged for the rest of the season; thankfully her son was more than happy to watch over Lydia so that she could take breaks. But when in the middle of taking her break, she saw the youngest Bridgerton, the diamond, being ambushed by a man who cut her way and demanded another dance. Rosa was up and walking to them before he was even done telling the girl that anyone could see them there, unchaperoned, as if he hadn't specifically followed her there of his own accord. "The lady is chaperoned, as I am right here and she was coming to see me," Rosa didn't slow down, and despite her height she still managed to make him back off, "And my fist will chaperon your face back into the hall, if you don't step away from this girl this very moment." "You can't-" "Do you think wise to speak again, after what you have tried to do? Perhaps we should ask the Viscount what I can or cannot do. I will not repeat myself, sir." That at least shut him up, and Rosa barely resisted the urge to punch the horrid man anyway, for trying to entrap her. Her hand still balled into a fist, she turned to the girl. "Are you alright, miss Hyacinth?"
