After her fallout with Eloise and hearing Colin's declaration to never marry her in front of the entire Ton, Penelope left high society and found a cottage in the country.

Attachment by lixabiz

(Set post S2. Some elements from the S3 synopsis, but not a prediction fic.)

Butterfly's Reverie by CassandraGoth

What might have changed had Penelope told Colin privately that her cousin Marina Thompson was with child? Not an easy scandal from which to untangle himself without the public protection of Lady Whistledown’s society papers.

Foolish One by LeighAnne_Balsdon

Colin announces his engagement to Marina and Penelope doesn't take it very well. She makes a hasty decision to run away from Mayfair, to save her broken heart.

One of us has got to change by itsjustabee

Colin and Penelope accidentally wear matching outfits to the Bridgerton ball

My Give a Fucks are On Vacation by SuzyH_82

It’s just a pity that for the last three years, she’s also been Colin’s ‘friends with benefits’ friend. I mean, it’s not like Colin could ever want a relationship…technically he already has a very public girlfriend…his fellow presenter Marina, on his travel log TV show. However, after their latest hook-up, Penelope overhears Colin talking to the press and realizes Colin is never going to see her as anything more than a friend and she finally decides to move on with her life.

i chose this cyclone with you (my heart exploding) by Vryalys

Well perchance it is I who do not wish to marry you any longer,” she hissed furiously at him, her eyes prickling as she moved away from him to the farthest end of the coach bench.

Penelope faints at her and Colin’s engagement dinner and Violet gives a piece of her mind to Eloise about continuing to love Penelope after everything that’s happened.

Dishonest Conquest by lilyeval

Colin is such a gracious helper, he ruins Penelope’s every opportunity with her suitors. So protective of her honor, he even lets himself into her very private bedroom.

Just Having Fun by Spartangal22

When Eloise arrives home from Scotland, the very first place she goes is to see her best friend and brother in their home. And since they’re family, the rules of social etiquette need hardly apply. Why should she bother knocking?

Colin had very little patience for Cressida Cowper before he and Penelope were engaged. Now, he must make it clear that he will not tolerate her comments about his soon-to-be wife.

Unreliable Narrator by WhiskeyTinCup

Eloise has a lifelong habit of overreacting to Penelope's love life and everyone knows it, even if she refuses to acknowledge it.

I Do Not Want To Stand By Your Side by magentaverse

She didn’t need a love declaration. She certainly didn’t need him to sign his life to her. She just needed his love. A few smiles and his willing ear. But Colin Bridgerton did what he did best—he changed the course of her life the moment he muttered, "I do not want to stand by your side, Penelope Featherington."

It’s Penelope’s first time putting on ice skates and venturing onto the frozen lake with the entire Bridgerton family. It’s Colin’s first time watching the ice crack, just barely out of reach, and seeing his wife disappear into the murky water below.

At Least It Wasn't A Duel by SugMak

Hi India, i just finished this polin fic and it is fiiiireeeee 🔥🔥 so naturally i thought you'd also enjoy it 😄 if you haven't read it yet: https://archiveofourown.org/works/54092404/chapters/136950694 - Ruin by Sea_Dragonfly

Ooh, thank you my darling!!

Let’s exchange, these two are also fire 🔥

🪞 Attachment by lixabiz

“I would like to marry," Penelope said bluntly. She looked him directly in the eye, daring him to disagree.

"Right." Colin gave a slow nod of the head, clearly taken aback by the declaration. His eyes had gone wide, giving him a look that was reminiscent of cornered prey.

It seemed that the heavens were intent upon tormenting her.

"Not you," she managed to say evenly, although she felt tumultuous waves rocking the boat that was her composure.

"No, of course not," he agreed hastily, embarrassment evident on his face.

🪞Affection by lixabiz

"Normally, I only have to think of you reading my letters for my muse to alight upon my shoulder and guide my quill across the page. You said once that there is so much more to say than what one can put into a letter… tell me, Pen… do you have nothing to say? Have my letters missed the mark? Your silence is most unusual, and I cannot help but feel perplexed, as I cannot figure out what could possibly be keeping you from responding… twelve letters, Penelope… one, or two is an accident… twelve is a punishment."

Colin returns to London for the Season of 1815, hoping to reconnect with his friend Penelope - only to discover that everything has changed between them.

And of course, your rec!

🪞Ruin by Sea_Dragonfly

“Perhaps you should take a seat,” said Violet.

Colin wouldn't remember the details of what his mother told him next. He would remember her hand warm on his knee, her eyes wide with concern, her voice gentle as velvet. All of it in stark contrast to the devastating news she shared.

Penelope was ruined.

i am obsessed with this fic. sugar polin is just chefs kiss

[thirdeyeblue]

Hi, I'm a new Doctor who fan and I love fanfiction, but I'm not much of a writer. I want to try writing a Ten/Rose fanfiction. (On the fence between a simple Human College AU or a Regency Era AU, love the esthetic, but not that knowledgeable on the troupes.) So I am reaching out to writer I love, to ask if there are any tips for characterization, for Rose and Ten. I love their dynamic, but I don't want to make Ten too childish or Rose to lovesick.

Hi! First of all, thanks so much for loving my fics! 💖💖💖💖 And welcome to being a Whovian 🥰

I’ve never personally written an AU — I intend to in the near future — but as far as characterizations go, there are a few helpful bits of advice. The BEST advice I can offer you is to watch the show. A lot. At least watch Ten/Rose compilations/clips on YouTube.

Let yourself really hear the lines back in your head. Memorize their little “isms” (such as Ten’s “wellllll” and “brilliant!”) and other beats in the way they say things. When you’re writing them, think about the characters actually saying the line you’re writing. Does it sound wrong? Then it probably just needs a bit of tweaking, is all.

For example, how would Rose say she was getting scared? She wouldn’t say “Gee Doctor, I’m pretty damn scared right now” — she’d probably say something more akin to, “Doctor, something feels a bit… off,” or “I think something’s wrong — I don’t like this”.

And how would the Doctor say he’s having a great time? He wouldn’t say “This is awesome, Rose! I’m having a blast!” He’d be more likely to say, “What do you think, Rose? Isn’t this brilliant?” Or maybe, “Oh, have a look at that — they’ve got those little cakes with the golden bits on top!”

The Doctor and Rose are relatively easy to figure out when it comes to their voices and cadences if you listen to them enough. If you’re still struggling even after watching episodes and clips and etc, I recommend reading fics by some of the best writers out there for characterizations.

A few recommendations (there are tons — these are just a few) would be Cereal, MegaBadBunny, and Lixabiz. All phenomenal at capturing Ten/Tentoo and Rose’s characters, and Lixabiz and Cereal both have AU’s that are fucking spectacular, if you want to see how they write those two in non-DW scenarios.

You can also check out the website ReadAllComics, which has almost all of the DW comic book content, and might be helpful for reading the characters as opposed to watching them.

All in all, it just takes a bit of practice. An exercise in just writing them in various situations couldn’t hurt, either. Even just practicing writing them having a regular interaction about nothing would be helpful. You’ll sort it out!

I also think it’s great that you’re reaching out to your favorite writers 💖 I hope you get lots of great advice!

[bronzeagepizzeria]

man shoutout to @lixabiz bc 'a sun will always sing' might just be the greatest fucking thing ever written in the history of human writing and it means EVERYTHING to me thank you SO MUCH for writing it and i hope youre doing awesome

My Favourite TenRose Fics

Fanfiction is brilliant. There, I said it. After years of studying for my PhD in Linguistics and Phililogy, endless nights spent reading Calderón, Diderot and Dostoevsky, I still believe certain fanfiction should be praised and published. It should be remembered.

Quadrophobia by Howlcastle. The Doctor is split in 4 personalities, but not in a creepy James McAvoy kinda way, trust me. I love this, because of our beloved TenRose dynamic. It's well-written and laconic. Novel, Teen (there will be a lot of these in this post, since I'm not a big fan of explicitness in fiction, since it's hard to find something tasteful)

Wolf and the Butterfly by sparrowmarrow. When Rose begins to be plagued by ominous nightmares of the Doctor’s future, a future without her, they realize that something sinister may be lurking behind the exotic stalls of Opifex’s acclaimed market. Oh the Angst! With a happy ending, of course. The characterisation is SO GOOD, darn. Novel, All ages.

Breaking Vows by Molleyn. Ten and Rose accidentaly bump into a parallel version of Rose on parallel Earth at war. Basically, the Doc can't tell them apart and leaves the His Rose there, only to realise his terrible mistake and come back to her 3 months later. Will she ever forgive him? Beautifully written angst with a happy ending. Evil doppelgangers, love confessions and a smidge of well-written smut. Novel, Teen.

Effeuiller La Marguerite Part 2 by whollyuncertain. Angsty and original. Happy ending. Hurt/Comfort. Post ThatDamnedFireplaceEpisode I hate so much it took me 5 months to even CONSIDER reading fixits of. Short Story, Teen

TenToo/Rose

I think it's the best happy ending Rose could've ever gotten. Not gonna lie, it had been difficult and so many fics had dissapointed me in the past. 99% just go in the exact same direction of 10.5 being miserable and as far from 10 as possible. I don't like it. So these fics are the only ones where I feel like Tentoo is actually 'in character'.

Laddie, Lie Near Me by @abadplanwellexecuted. Beautiful. I am a big fan of this author, check out her work. Here, Tentoo is not OOC (what a surprise...) and Rose is not a total byotch to him (another surprise). Short story, Teen.

The Wind By Night by @tripwirealarm. A masterpiece! Told from His perspective, which is honestly refreshing. Angst with a happt ending. Novel, Adult.

AUs

Never been a fan of AU fics before, but I guess falling in love with this particular pairing means you all of a sudden become a fic addict and anything goes. Am I right?

A Place Where We Only Say Goodbye by @weezly14. I cried, but actually it was worth every single tear (cheesy, but heck! that's the way I feel about this masterpiece). So much insight, great character development. Coffeshop AU, novel, part of the Time Loop series, Teen. Did I mention it's slow burn? Gotta love 'em.

nothing happens until something moves by @lauraxxtennant. UniVerse. Professor!Ten / Student!Rose. I had a crush on my German Professor once, it was wonderful. Novel, tastefully Mature.

Sweetheart by @stoprobbersfic. UniVerse. TenRose, Oxford. Read this whilst listening to 'Dark of the Matinee' by Franz Ferdinand with a cuppa on a war mnight in early spring. Romaticize your life a bit. You will not regret it. Novel, part of a Series, tastefully Mature. Warning: mentions of a certain French individual.

A Sun Will Always Sing by @lixabiz. Tutor!Ten / Student!Rose. I guess I'm just a sucker for this particular trope, especially written by someone so talented. What a pleasure. Short story, Teen.

That Home I Find Outside Your Door by Queen of The Castle. Homeless!AU. Last, but definitely not least. This fic just left me speechless. The idea is bloody brilliant, keeps you on your toes 'til the very end. Angst with a happy ending, of course. 2-parter, Teen.

And a bit of a (unofficial) crossover. I love the Harry Potter series and especially the character of Barty Crouch Jr. Tennant in a long leather coat will haunt my dreams forever. So, there's this incredible fic, called Snakes' Nest by elmira777. Summary: When Rose Clifton, a pureblooded witch, had been abducted and forced to marry Barty Crouch Jr, it didn't even cross her mind that this was her chance to save the world. AU, takes place after Goblet of Fire. It's a Work In Progress, which sucks. BUT! And it's a big 'but'. It's so cool! Technically, it's not a HP/Doctor Who crossover, but I just can't help it. Rose here, Rose there. It somehow just works.

And you know what? The best thing about WIPs - you can use your imagination and finish them in your head. Novel, Teen.

hmu with tenrose fic recs >:3c

fuck yeah !! okay im gonna try to keep any fics i recc’d last time off of this list, bc ive read a lot more since then, and am tender as fuck. thank u for letting me do this. let me talk abt how much i love rose tyler. i apparently really like au’s, but i blame the fact that people really like WRITING aus as justification for this. a lot of these are soulmate aus bc those are my bread and fucking BUTTER. enjoy.

the doctors wife series by chocolatequeen

yes this seems like it would be about river but its not. ten and rose keep accidentally getting married on different planets and at one point theres a sword fight. its so tender. ten is so stupid. we all respect the tardis

chemical potential by hiddentreasures

atlas back with ANOTHER fic by hiddentreasures? youre right my friends, and this one actually made me squeal. i made physical noises. it was so cute im reeling. james felt like someone looked into my soul and wrote what i wished to be but as a straight man. he carries way too many snacks around with him on a daily basis.

little things by lixabiz

this was such a fantastic au. its so funny. its so stupid. john is an absolute imbecile. we all love and respect ianto jones, even if his friends dont. donna is the best character and thats not surprising at all. 

sensory overload by whoinwhoville

im not an emotional personal, typically. i also dont typically get invested in fanfiction. but i actually re-hurt my wrist bc i slammed it against my nightstand while reading this fic. it was so wonderfully tender and sweet and it was so anti-reinette it was like therapy. super long story short, we got king john of gallifrey and rose the florist, with soulmate marks and a whole lot of drama. also saxon is there, which is therapy. and donna is once again, the best character. if you read any of the fics on this list, make it be this one. it was such a wonderful au.

the doctor, the divine and the dungeon by lizann__5869

i have to have some canon stuff on here, right? cant all just be aus?? jenny, lee and rose are all back babee !! we got that bad wolf rose !!! tens a stupid bitch but thats nothing new !!! definitely read the other fics in the series, its a very good universe. no one is dead and everyone is hAPPY. 

help i need somebody (not just anybody) by perfectlyrose

i think its wonderful that theyre both women. no but all joking aside this is the fake dating we all wished for. has the tenderness of every song lyric gay fanfiction youve ever read, but its tenrose, and ten is a scientist and stupid as shit. the yearning is strong in this one lads.

met their match by hiddentreasures and dimensionhoppingrose

at least this one isnt JUST written by hiddentreasures. matchmaker rose and dumb phd student james noble. donna is once again, the only fucking valid character.

words on her wrist by achilles1011

canon doomsday hurt but even more bc now we got soulmate marks !!!!!!!!

if yall want any more, let me know !! sorry these are all over the place, im not typically a person who sticks to one type of fic slkdjgsd

Comepletely and thoroughly loving the polin content 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 stopped checking tumblr regularly a while ago and now I come to your page every day to check bc I just need a touch of joy and squealing, a couple YouTube videos and now the fics you recommended. This weekend my little sister looked at me and said “you really are a fan girl at heart” and my partner said "oh so het fic too?" 💀😂

if you have any accounts or additional fic recs pls do share 🫡

Aww, darling, this is so nice!

And yes, I’ve been wondering like why I’m so addicted to watching the carriage scene reactions on TikTok particularly and I had this eureka moment where I realized I’m reveling in our collective joy.

Like it’s just so rare to feel enveloped by people squealing in excitement and giggling and kicking their feet, and leaning into their passions and pleasures so unapologetically. Its exactly, exactly the same feeling as hearing the trumpets opening HSLOT on a warm summer evening, and I hope all of us always have somewhere to pull that feeling from, one way or another, because damn. I have not smiled this much in a long time, and it feels good!

Fangirling is the best!

For blogs, right now I’m following @/colandpen @/ilovepolin and @/daily-polin (I won’t tag them cause no one knows me and I’m so happy to lurk hahaha)

On TikTok I follow theotherblackgurl, tifaine.red, ansley_broom, kazul_a, and mrbridgerton.

For fics, I’ve heard great things about Sea_Dragonfly, lixabiz, and ktbeets, but again, I’m so stuck on the source material that I haven’t even been able to delve. 🤣

Enjoy, sweetheart! Im patiently waiting to see if this obsession dies down after the season or if you will find me writing Polin fic eight years down the road. 🤣
