The Courtship of Charlotte Bridgerton Part VI: The Deliberation

“I did not think I would marry,” Kate admitted to Charlotte. “I was quite convinced your Aunt Edwina would make a grand match and I would be content as her children’s favorite aunt.” “What changed?” “I was compromised,” her mother said baldly. “But compromise alone would not compel me to marry.” “I had no idea,” Charlotte breathed. “But Mama, why are you telling me this now? When did you agree to marry Papa, if not then?” “Because I wish to impress upon you that there is always a choice. I refused your father when he felt honor-bound to propose, and only accepted on my own terms… when I knew with certainty that I loved him and he loved me.”

My bullet journal for November. Did something a little different this time.

If youve been following me for a while then you'll know i love Mary Shelley and her contemporaries, especially those who were with her at Villa Diodati in the summer of 1816. But in the last week or so i've been particularly drawn to them. I read The Villa by Rachel Hawkins which is partly inspired by the Villa Diodati gang and havent stopped thinking about them since.

Doing a Romantic Era poets theme has been in the back of my head for a while but this is the first time i've actually thought of a way to do it and i'm pretty happy with how its turned out! Each week will feature a different member of the group but of course Shelley herself had to be first!

Thank you to @viscountessevie, @sophiamariabeckett, and @pixie-likethecut for all your help! 💖

"I wish to marry her," Clairmont murmured. “Charlotte Bridgerton.”  Frederick’s first instinct was to tease, belie that flicker of outrage with something more palatable.  After one dance? He nearly asked from where continued to kneel, though he had relaxed enough to lean against Clairmont's hip. But something stopped him from saying it, something in Clairmont's tone that went beyond certainty. Instead, he asked, "And will you take her wishes into account?"  Clairmont opened his eyes and looked down, his golden gaze contemplative... sharp. "Is that truly what you want to ask me, Fitzalan?"

And for the very first time in my life. I considered Lord Byron's condom usage.
