Aries After All by KatofKanals

Summary
Colin lifts his hand with the cigarette to his lips at the same that his eyes open, his head turns, and he first notices Penelope standing there watching him.
"Fuck," he mutters before looking away from her and to the window. "I'm sorry."
She isn't sure what he's apologizing for really—for smoking or fighting with Marina or maybe both. Regardless, it breaks a little part of her to see him looking so dejected and sad. There's a light missing from him, a weight pulling him down and making him seem smaller. It's not fair, though. He's so inherently good. He doesn't deserve to feel like this. He doesn't deserve to be treated like this. He deserves—
Penelope can't help but blink in surprise even at just the meandering path of her own thoughts, at the idea that just popped into her head about what exactly she thinks Colin Bridgerton deserves at this moment and what exactly she'd like to do to make him feel better. It's ridiculous, right? She shouldn't… She couldn't… But what if she did?
--
Flatmates Penelope and Colin take a winding, complicated, messy path on their friends to lovers journey.

Don't Want to Say Goodbye by TradingGlances
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn

Summary
“Dearest,” his mother’s voice comes out a little louder. The hand on his arm squeezes in emphasis. Colin drags his eyes away from the beautiful vision of his fiancée— his fiancée! — and looks towards his mother.
“I got Humboldt to fetch you a cravat. I thought you might want to be fully dressed before we escort Miss Featherington home.” His mother presses a plain white scrap of cloth into Colin’s limp hand.
“Home?” Colin inquires, at a complete loss to his mother’s meaning. Penelope is home. He already escorted her up from the street and into Bridgerton House. Pen's cloak is already settled in the closet amongst their own.
OR
A tiny introspective about what occurs after Colin announces his engagement to his family in the Bridgerton drawing room. In which he is mostly being a pouty loverboi about having to say goodbye to Pen.

Summary
"I do not blame you for putting on armour lately, but you must be careful that the armour does not rust and set so that you might never be able to take it off" ~ Violet Bridgerton
After his fiancee's deception had left him humiliated and heartbroken, Colin Bridgerton had sworn off women and thrown himself into his work, hardening his heart and rejecting love.
So, what do you do when the man you’re in love with barely acknowledges that you’re female let alone realise that you have feelings for him?
Penelope Featherington knew exactly what she was going to do and Colin was going to hate it.

Summary
Colin has grown accustomed to his wife’s replies. In fact, he likes them very much. Sometimes, he believes he knows them better than he knows his own self:
Yes, darling.
Do not be foolish, Colin.
Dearest, could you fetch Elliot’s rattle?
It is only when they move their effects back to Penelope’s childhood home that he learns there are some she has yet kept back from him.
For those unaware, emotional intimacy very much turns them on.

Summary
It’s just unfortunate that it all comes out right before the party because Eloise and Phil are coming and that relationship is very fragile. They’re all very careful around one another. Very polite and formal, almost. Like strangers who happen to know everything about one another. It’s just that, for whatever reason, Bonnie loves her Aunt Eloise.
Like, loves her.

falling backwards in time, leaping forward to the altar by pain_somnia
Fandoms: Bridgerton (TV)
30 Oct 2024

Summary
A quick exploration of his room did nothing to settle his nerves. All that remained in his armoire were clothes in the fashions of two seasons prior in cuts more suited for an Eton student than the adult Colin was supposed to be.
The mirror only worsened his state of confusion.
Back was the puppy fat of childhood on his cheeks and his body was lean, still muscular but not as broad as he was supposed to be and without as much definition that he had gained on his form.
“Did I really used to wear my hair like this?” Colin muttered, twirling a curl between two fingers as examined his reflection. A thought came to him and he tugged on a single strand until he yanked it out, feeling the sting on his scalp. “Shit!”
That had hurt. He had felt that.
“Ah, fuck.”

Summary
Just one kiss.
The question had surprised him; although it should not have, because her bravery has always been one of the many qualities he admired most about her.
It does not have to mean anything.
Still, Colin had hesitated. Not because of her, but for her. To ensure she understood the gravity of her ask. To allow her a respite to withdraw it if she wished to do so. But Penelope had not relented, instead murmuring his name and a desperate please that made him weak and ready to surrender to her.
And since he is Colin and she is Penelope, and he would do almost anything for her, he did as she asked.
They kissed, just the gentlest brush of their mouths moving together, and—
After the events of 3x02, Penelope vanishes, Colin falls apart, and a series of very different events are put into motion.

Summary
Colin huffs and frowns. “I like it here.”
“Kneeling on my hard, outdated linoleum kitchen floor?”
Nodding emphatically, he affirms, “It’s where I belong.”
Penelope chokes on an ill-timed sip of wine. “What?”
“I like looking up at you.”
-`♡´-
Here's what I imagine would happen if you took a recently enlightened Colin, fed him alcohol, and let him play with his bestie's beautiful, curly hair.
