"Why do we even bother to say that anymore? I mean, look at us- surrounded by a graveyard of broken promises."



Esther Solomons- the woman that had held Thomas Shelby's heart from the time they were mere children. The woman he had loved. The woman he promised to return to after the war. The woman that broke him.

Thomas returned from France to find a letter awaiting him rather than the woman he loved. A letter offering Esther's apologies along with the knowledge that she had left Small Heath behind for a new life with her new husband. Promising him that she'd never be back and wish him a lifetime of happiness. But what happens when that promise is broken?

Gun metal and Daisies (Thomas Shelby) by wordless-writing

Dorothy Monroe is a petite woman with a heart too big for her chest. She's pure, kind, she looked at the world and determined all the colours of nature were miracles and needed to be remembered. She's loved photography ever since her father brought a camera home and even had a gift with the newly designed lenses ever since she could wrap her small hands around the clunks of metal. Thomas Shelby: gangster; and war hero; he reads the devils script as if it were the morning newspaper - the list will go on. I don't need to say much more, you already know him. The Shelby family, as part of Tommy's expansion plan, bought a large area of the woods on the outskirts of Small Heath, far away from the Birmingham smog, there they built safe houses and kept heavy machinery; maybe even once they kept a large crate of stolen guns, supposedly belonging to the Government. Unbeknownst to Dorothy, who stumbled around the woods (a bulky camera in hand), she had explored the woods many times, taking photos of all the things that shined bright enough, but had never come across the peculiar buildings that held many dangers. That is, of course, until she knocks upon one of the doors, ready to give an earful to whoever had built over this precious patch of land, only to come face to face with one Thomas Shelby. -loosely follows the plot of season 1- *disclaimer* I do not own the Peaky Blinders or any of Steven Knights characters, only the story of Dorothy and her own plot line. This trope is cliche and overused, but idc, I like it.

Little Shelby Girl by flowerboomer2020

This story is about the youngest member of the Shelby family, Vive. Together with her brothers she grows up under the smoke of Small Heath. Surrounded with danger and death, it's not easy being little. Luckily, Vive has her older brothers and especially Tommy, who fills in some kind of father role for her. During war her brothers had to go through a lot. Little did they know, life wasn't all sunshine and roses for Vive either. After a tragic accident, the Shelby family seems to fall apart and Vive's life is turned upside down. Will love keep the Peaky Blinders together? Before you start reading, keep in mind: *English is not my native language* , but I'm sure you'll understand ;)

blue velvet, t.s by lolitaadaydreams

she was young, much too young for him, much too young for it to be moral but thomas shelby wasn't a man of many morels not in the general sense anyways, they say opposites attract but tommy could swear it on the bible that had they met under other circumstances that he wouldn't have touched her perhaps out of respect but deep down it was more so out of fear, she was the devil wrapped up in angel wings more like him than he could have ever imagined. a wise woman one said the only thing strong enough to blind a man like thomas was love; but his lola wasn't like grace not one bit. broken in a way only he could understand. this is a reright of Tommy Shelbys last love with barely any of the sadness, the turmoil the anguish, tommy shelby isn't a man who can promise much in the way of love or kindness and granted it's hard to love the man sometimes; a man plagued by his own desires. tommy shelby, the definition of an anti-hero // i'm not gonna be mentioning much of grace i want to allow tommy to have his own romance without grace being bought up 24/7, god knows i hate that bitch 'end of season 3 onwards'

Nothing Will Change by FloralPassengers

On a train arrives a young woman. She's naive, she's kind, she's everything the city begs her not to be. When she meets Thomas Shelby, he is unlike any man she has met before. An exploration into Tommy as a character as he tries to find love. A warning that this has no purpose of being a satisfying, kind romance, but more a broken man trying so hard and a woman trying so hard to understand him. Please take that into consideration.
