Elinordashwood Stories

When Edward Ferrars is finally released from the burden he had been sure he would spend his whole life carrying, all he can think of is the eldest Dashwood sister. He is finally free to confess everything he had been forced to hold back until now, but with her still convinced that he is already married, can he be fortunate enough to win her affection, or is he just risking the one friendship that is more dear to him than anything else? A oneshot to rewrite the end for Edward and Elinor from "Sense and Sensibility" by Jane Austen. As Austen, true to what was in the sense of propriety in her period, never writes really detailed scenes of love declarations etc, I wanted to give it a try myself because I love the book and especially this couple so much. I was inspired by 1995's movie "Sense and Sensibility", written by the wonderful Emma Thompson. I adore her and loved the adaption, so some of the lines are taken from the screenplay or may at least resemble it, although I don't own anything, of course.

Colonel Brandon never imagined loving someone other than his old love, Eliza, he had never thought it possible. Every ounce of his heart belonged to the woman he had lost, and yet all of that fell away the moment he crossed paths with (Y/N) Dashwood. " oh, my dear, when a thing loves, it is infinite.

As the title says, this is going to be an accumulation of Oneshots for all kinds of stuff I'll want to try out or will be inspired to write about, so, I can't really say what it will turn out to be like. This is ONLY meant as a platform for me to collect my oneshots of different fandoms, they are also going to be PUBLISHED INDIVIDUALLY. (It will probably include Sense and Sensibility, Game of Thrones, My Fair Lady, Downton Abbey, Harry Potter and/or Fantastic Beasts, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, ... Oh, and most of them or probably all will be love stories, most likely about my OTPs)

'The more I know of the world, the more am I convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love. I require so much!' Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor's warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile Elinor, always sensitive to social convention, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment, even from those closest to her. Through their parallel experience of love-and its threatened loss-the sisters learn that sense must mix with sensibility if they are to find personal happiness in a society where status and money govern the rules of love.

Some of my favorite quotes by Jane Austen. You'll find everything from love to wise words.
