What would you give up to dive into your favourite story?

Romantic, sharp-tongued, with a tendency to fall in love with tall, dark-haired, brooding men--Leah is the archetype of the "Pride and Prejudice" fan. TV series, movies, comics, musicals: she has seen and read them all.

For her birthday, Leah's friends and family pool together to get her the ultimate Janeite gift: the Bridge, a virtual-reality gaming device.
By granting access to her five senses, she can live her favourite novel as the iconic Elizabeth Bennet!

As she explores Regency England and quarrels with the infamous Darcy, Leah cannot help but digress from the original plot to suit her modern-woman convictions.
The longer she plays, the weirder her beloved characters act, until the lines between fiction and reality blur.

⚠️ Content and/or trigger warning ⚠️

This story contains one scene of (unsuccessful) sexual coercion, and mentions domestic violence and death by domestic violence, which may be triggering for some readers.

Secrets of the Sea

27 parts Complete

My heart, which had been fluttering nervously in my chest, dropped to the soles of my feet. Familiar blue eyes met mine. In my dreams they were steely and cold, haunting, different from the dark amusement that glinted in them now. He reminded me of a Shadow Cat; great lethal felines that prowled through the Lost Jungle, preparing to attack his prey.Me. *** A simple tavern maid gets shipped - literally - into a world full of piracy, lies, and battles. The longer she stays out in sea, the more she learns that the pirates her country is fighting are not regular pirates, and that the people she comes to care about the most are in the middle of all the fighting. Laria must get her act together after her hometown is massacred and help win this war, but can she, when a supposed noble comes into her life at the same time her ex-fiancee returns?
