Ongoing, First published Apr 04, 2024
In the heart-stirred currents of 1921, a young woman emerges from the shadows of history, arriving in Birmingham with nothing but a suitcase and clothes on her back. Arriving there, she takes up residence across the street from the enigmatic Shelby family, known for their complex ties to the city's underbelly. 
She catches the eye of Thomas Shelby, the enigmatic leader of the Shelby family. Though not a man easily moved, there's something about the mysterious woman that intrigues him, sparking an unspoken connection. 
Their growing fascination with each other is a slow burn, a dance of shadows and light across the cobbled streets of Birmingham.

Although she shared the same brunette locks as her sister Ada and the same blue eyes as her brother Tommy, she did not share the same attitudes. Francesca was an anxious girl. And that only worsened when her brothers left for war. Her second eldest brother, Tommy, was a God in her eyes. She idolised him. Why? Nobody knew. But there was something about him. And for her..

He was the type of boy all the girls would fawn over. Golden hair and blue eyes. Except, he didn't care for any of them. He cared for his best friend: Francesca Shelby. Or - Frances, as he called her. He was her only friend. Being older and, well, liked by most, he found it was his duty to look after her during such a hostile time. But they seemed to be blind to the fact that they were more than friends. In some way, they were more. They didn't know it but everybody else did.

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.

Harvey Ellis grew up in Small Heath, hearing the tales of the Peaky Blinders. Having been friends with the second youngest Shelby brother, Harvey finds himself becoming a Blinder. What he didn't know was that this would only anger his father more than he already was. Things got worse for him - with his confusion regarding his sexuality, it led to him seeking comfort in the only sister of the Shelby family after she cleaned his wounds. After one night spent together, Ada falls pregnant. Frightened, Ada begs that he stays despite not loving him. It is then that she finds out why he is hesitant to do so. Knowing it was a mistake from both ends, Harvey agreed to stay after Ada said she would keep his secret. And despite their attempts at being parents, Ada can't help but notice the way Harvey cannot let John Shelby go. And the way John looks at Harvey without even realising. Forcing herself to push it aside, she begins to understand properly what is happening. No words spoken - many exchanged glances - one story to be told.
