Coming soon: A Weary Memory prequel
Tumblr media
“I'm Anthony.”
“Anthony?” she asked, with a hard “th.”
He shook his head.
“Anthony,” he enunciated. “With a ‘ta.’“
The way Anthony exaggerated the consonant sound drew Kate's attention to his mouth and the way his tongue peeked out just a little from between his teeth. I wonder if that's a move. He has lines, so surely he also has moves. I bet that “with a ‘ta'” nonsense is the only reason he pronounces it that way. 
Kate realised too late her gaze was lingering on his mouth, looking up only once Anthony started smirking. And I totally fell for it, damn him.  
Anthony with a “ta” put a hand on the wall behind Kate, and his forearm brushed against her shoulder as he leaned forward. “Would you like me to demonstrate again? Up close this time?”
Kate rolled her eyes. Definitely a move. “No, thanks. I'm a quick study, Anthony.” She noted it must work both ways, judging by how Anthony's eyes darted down to her lips. “Sounds quite posh, pronounced the proper way. Suits you.”
“Why doesn't that sound like a compliment?”
Kate tilted her head to one side, and Anthony seemed to reflexively tilt his head the same way as his eyes stayed trained on hers. “Perhaps because it isn't.”

So, last week I popped my AO3 cherry.
Anthony Week 2023:
Find my week's answers and Tumblr ramblings along the way here.
It started with me thinking, yeah this could be fun...
Hm, but I doubt I'll think of something new everyday...
By day 3 I was writing about Father Anthony the priest being tempted by a church going Kate Sharma. (I'm actually obsessed with them, and chapter 2 is in the works lmao)
Um, anyway, here's my little series list:
Astride - Mature, Post Canon, Domestic Fluff
Anthony speaks in his sleep and Kate overhears his dream debaucheries. He eventually admits the truth and tells her about the effect their first encounter had on him, and still has on him.
Nectar - General, Post Canon, Domestic Fluff
Anthony attempts to make friends with Nectar the horse, Nectar is not really having any of it at first. Hyacinth swoops in with some sound sisterly advice, and Anthony learns about how Kate got Nectar to like her so quickly.
Temptation - Mature, Modern AU, Fluff + Mild Smut
Anthony has joined the priesthood in this universe, but a new lady has started coming to his services. He's obsessed with her, and it seems she's obsessed with him too. After a session in the confession booth he finally asks her to go for a drink with him. He's celibate so he promises himself and God that he'll only look, no big deal.
Hunt - Mature, Canon Divergence, Mutual Yearning
In this twist of the canon, we spend some time with Kate and Anthony after that gun holding moment during the hunting trip. They get very into their feelings and find out that they really enjoy hearing the other one say their name. Gratuitous heavy breathing, smelling each other, wet chests etc etc.
Obedient - Teen, Post Canon, Domestic Fluff
Anthony's in the first person and tells us about his little entanglements with learning to be more obedient around Kate. Kate is very supportive and teaches him about yoga.
Nursery - Teen, Modern AU, Domestic Fluff
Kate and Anthony are being unhinged parents at Eddie and Miles' sports day. The head teacher is their no. 1 nemesis as she ostracises them away from the competitive action. Kate also has something important to tell Anthony.
Yours - Explicit, Post Canon, Domestic Smut
Simon and Daphne ruin Anthony's birthday getaway plans, he's mad as hell and horny as hell... and hungry. Thankfully Kate comes to the rescue and thinks of a way they can thoroughly enjoy his birthday dinner on their final night away.
That last one will probably get added to at some point as well, how could I not?
Thank you to kateandanthonyweek for setting up the whole thing! Until next time.
💙💜❤️

( fic ) geomancy
geomancy
bridgerton (tv) | anthony/kate explicit, 10.5k In preparation for their wedding, a nervous Anthony asks Kate to show him how the Haldi ceremony is performed so he can practice. Naturally, things escalate.
He smiles and shakes his head, consequently smearing more on his top lip and the tip of his nose. He speaks against the pad of her finger, "You are incorrigible."
"And so are you."
"Stubborn."
"And you."
He clears his throat gently and doesn’t move his face away from her hand. "Beautiful."
She smiles. "And you."
He laughs and pulls away from her hand, wrapping his fingers gently around her wrist. "Why must you be so you?"
She smiles and wiggles her fingers in an attempt to try and smear his chin. "Who else would I be? Kathani Bridgerton is as much a menace as Kathani Sharma."
He smiles widely and stares at her.
"What?" she asks, feeling self-conscious.
"Say it again."

where the spirit meets the bone
by thelittlefanpire
Bridgerton | Kate x Anthony | TROPED
Inspired by @troped-fanfic-challenge’s Bridgerton Smut Event || Theme: Modern | Tropes: Celebrity (Actors) + Secret Lovers + Dry Humping + Watching Pornography
Anthony spends his summers at his family’s old English estate as an actor for the Regency-themed retreat they own. It’s all stuffy costumes and proper accents that ends with a proposal at the grand ball for whatever lady he’s been ‘courting’ over the course of the holiday.
To ensure complete immersion there are two rules: no modern technology and no fraternizing with the help. Anthony thought he could handle those simple rules, but after a few weeks with no porn and no hookups, the new maid at the estate, Miss Sharma, has become very, very distracting, to say the least.
Or an Austenland Inspired Modern Bridgerton AU with a TROPED twist!

Title: Kate Sharma and the Vexing Ordeal of Being Betrothed
Rating: M
Tags: Betrothal era, fluff, idiots in love, UST
Summary:
Kate and Anthony navigate the world's longest betrothal with their usual unhingedness. --- Anthony sighs. "They are not entirely misguided. I have behaved inappropriately with you, and you deserve a proper courtship. I do not wish our marriage to be the subject of rumor any more than it already will be."
Kate nods. "We shall have to be discreet then."
Anthony looks at her, aghast. "We shall have to be chaste!"
Kate laughs disbelievingly. "You do not mean that." 
Chapter 3 now on AO3!

WEARY MEMORY: 11 - ONE MEMORY THAT I CHOOSE TO CARRY
[NOTE: CW - Pregnancy, discussions of birth control and postpartum depression, and non-graphic depictions of early stage labour (no complications).]
Anthony sat bolt upright, mouth agape. Kate sat up as well, facing him on her knees. When several moments passed without him saying anything, she grew concerned.
“Anthony?”
“You’re pregnant?”
She exhaled. “Yes.”
“Wha… When did you find out?”
“Yesterday. Well, Monday, technically. I’ve been taking tests all week. I took the last one yesterday.”
Anthony fell silent again and Kate grabbed his hands and intertwined their fingers.
“What do you want to do?” It seemed as if it took all his strength to push the question out. He slowly looked up at her. “Are you happy about this?”
Kate bit her lip as she thought. “The first couple of days, all I could feel was shock, honestly. I definitely wasn't expecting to win this kind of lottery.” She chuckled wryly at the thought of being one of the less than one percent of people with an IUD who get pregnant. “I just kept taking tests. And thinking about us. Thinking about the kids. Adding a baby to all this change we're going through, it's…a lot, to say the very least.”
“Yeah,” Anthony whispered, rubbing his thumbs over her knuckles.
“And then…” she took a deep breath.
“You thought about what happened after Kav.”
Kate nodded.
“You're scared it's going to happen again?”
“Yeah.” A few moments passed before she spoke again, with more confidence. “So, I called my therapist, got back in touch with my psychiatrist, and read a shit ton about PPD after subsequent pregnancies.”
“Good.” Anthony nodded. “That’s good. Did that help?”
Kate shifted forward so she could sit on his lap. “It helped. It's helping. We could handle it. If it happens, I could handle it. We'd know the signs this time. We'd know which treatments worked for me before.” She pet his cheek. “It may not even happen,” she said quietly, with hope.
Anthony pressed his eyes shut as he rested his forehead to Kate's. “Does that mean you want this, Kit?”
Kate gave him a quick kiss. “I want this, Anthony. But not if I'm alone in that.” She looked into his eyes, the unasked question hanging between them.
“You aren't alone.”
“So, you…”
“I want to have another baby with you. We can do this.”
“We can do this,” she echoed.
“And we're going to do this.”
“We are.”
“We're having a baby.”
Kate giggled. “Yes.”
“Holy shit.” Anthony wrapped his arms around her and pulled her tight. He rocked them from side to side as he kissed her hair.
Kate turned to look at him and pointed a finger to his chest. “This is the last time, Bridgerton. You must have inherited your father's fertility, and I am not having eight children. We apparently need a second line of defence. So, I'm going to need you to take care of that after this baby is born.”
“I will, I promise.” He was smirking.
“Ugh, you do not get to be smug about this.” She climbed off of him and laid down.
“I bested an IUD!”
“I hate you.”
“I don't think you do, Kit.” Anthony snuggled in behind her. “You're having my love child.”
“The absolute nerve, going against science like that,” she mumbled. “It's just plain rude, is what it is.”
After Kate told Anthony, they basically had no choice but to tell everyone else right away. It was as though saying the words out loud was all her body needed to start looking pregnant. Not that it was terribly surprising that she was showing so early. It was her fourth child, after all.
Telling the kids went relatively smoothly. Kaveri thanked her parents for giving her a baby. Maaran's only concern seemed to be keeping his room. Edmund was the biggest surprise. He hadn't said much of anything when everyone was gathered together in the living room, but later that night, there was a knock on their bedroom door. Edmund wanted to let them know in private that he loved being a big brother, and he was excited to have another sibling to take care of. Kate burst into tears, and Anthony tried his best to convince their son that she was happy.
Anthony stood in his blue suit underneath a tent next to the pond on his family’s property in Kent. Maaran stood to his left in coordinating blues, chest puffed up with the pride of being his father’s best man. He looked out in front of him at the small gathering of only their closest friends and family. It was perfect. Or, it would be soon. Three very important people were yet to join them.
Kate had been adamant about having the wedding during her second trimester. After she stopped feeling ill all the time, but before she was too annoyed with still being pregnant to be particularly good company.
Anthony’s jaw ticked with restlessness, but immediately relaxed again as he gasped. Kaveri skipped into the tent, a basket of flower petals in hand. He watched his soon to be second youngest as she paused at the opposite end of the aisle and primly fluffed her poofy white dress. ”If you can’t see Amma’s dress yet because it’s too special, you can’t see mine, either, Dad.” She gave herself a pep talk that was no doubt for her ears only before pointing to her cousin Auggie, who was in charge of the music. Auggie gave her a thumbs up and dutifully skipped to the next track. Finally, Kaveri danced down the aisle, twirling as she dramatically threw petals. About ninety percent of them landed on the wedding guests instead of the ground. Once she got to the front she threw more directly at Maaran, Anthony, and the officiant. Anthony was grateful for a reason to laugh to save himself from crying. He picked his daughter up, meaning to give her a kiss, but received a raspberry from her instead. He set Kaveri down, and she ran to her Paatti Mary to drop off her basket before assuming her second role as maid of honour, standing opposite her father and brother.
“I did really good!” she cheered.
Well, that did it. The first tear fell as Anthony nodded at her and put a finger up to his mouth. Kaveri paid no heed.
“Dad, look! She’s coming!”
Anthony’s stomach dropped before he even looked back down the aisle. Once he did, he was certain staying upright throughout the ceremony wasn’t going to be an easy feat.
Edmund, looking nervous but determined in his own blue suit, moved down the aisle. And on his arm was Kate, kissing her son on the cheek and whispering something to him, before looking ahead, meeting Anthony’s gaze. She looked amazing–and ridiculously out of his league–in a floor length form fitting lace gown. Her hair was down, at his request, and she wore a crown of flowers that matched Kaveri’s.
The walk seemed to take an eternity, but finally, she was in front of him. Ned held out his hand for Anthony to shake. He grabbed it and pulled his son in for a tight hug.
“I love you, Ned.”
“I love you, too, Dad.”
At least Edmund was crying, too.
Anthony looked to Kate again as their son joined their hands before taking his place on the other side of Maaran.
“Hello, Mrs. Sharma-Bridgerton.”
“Uh-uh. I'm Ms. for about ten more minutes.” Kate reached up and thumbed away his tears.
Anthony placed a hand on her bump, “Are you alri–?”
“Anthony…” Kate warned. “Not right now. You promised a week of no hovering.”
“Right.” He took a deep breath, grasping both her hands. “You’re my home, Kate,” he whispered. “Thank you for letting me back in.”
“Should you have saved that for the vows?” she teased.
“No,” he said simply. “That part was just for you.”
Tumblr media
After tea was the dancing Kaveri demanded. By the evening, the last of their family and guests had left, and Anthony and Kate officially started their honeymoon–a child free week alone at Aubrey Hall.
“Is this OK? Do you need anything right now?”
“No, don't go anywhere.”
Kate was leaning forward into Anthony's embrace, resting her head on his chest as she swayed from side to side on the birthing ball she was straddling. They'd arrived at the birthing centre five hours ago, leaving Edmund with instructions to call either of his grandmothers if he or his siblings needed anything.
“What the fuck is taking her so long? Your mum had me believing she'd just shoot right out of me as soon as the contractions started. She claimed that’s what happened with Daphne.”
Anthony grimaced. “Lovely visual.”
“Shut up.”
Kate fisted Anthony's shirt with both hands as she keened through another contraction. Anthony rocked with her and rubbed her back while he looked at his watch.
“Fucking hell,” she gasped as it passed. “That had to be sixty seconds.”
“Only about forty, I'm afraid,” Anthony said with a wince.
“Surely that's close enough.”
“Not according to our midwife.”
“Well, who put him in charge?”
“You did, love.”
“Oh, right. He's quite lovely and more than competent, actually.”
“He really is.”
Kate sucked her teeth. “Still. I swear to God, Mary Violet Sharma-Bridgerton. You'd better be here by tonight.”
“Or what?”
There was a long pause before Kate muttered in Tamil, punctuated by another “Shut up.”
Within a few minutes, another contraction started. Kate whimpered into Anthony's shoulder.
“Do you want to bounce? Let's try bouncing.”
“Alright,” Kate groaned, following Anthony's up and down movements.
“Well done, Kit. And that was forty six seconds, as well!”
Kate smiled weakly and resumed swaying.
“I never stopped being in love with you, Anthony.” Kate's voice sounded far away.
“Kit?”
“I'm alright. Just going to my happy place. You're there. It's just you and me. Don't tell Kav.”
They stayed silent for a while, Anthony massaging Kate's hips as she rolled them in circles.
“I never stopped being in love with you, either, Kit.”
“I think we just misplaced it in all of the mess.”
“Yeah.” Anthony kissed her forehead.
“Let's keep better track of it this time.”
Anthony backed up just enough to look Kate in the eye. 
“Kathani Kaveri Sharma-Bridgerton, I promise you that we will never lose track of each other again.”

Tulips
So I visited Amsterdam over the weekend, and of course it's the Netherlands so I was surrounded by tulips. An abundance of tulips, everywhere, in all varieties.
Of course my brainrot set in, there has to be a Kanthony Amsterdam AU right? What with all the coffee shops too, it's just asking to be a fanfic:
Maybe he's a florist, and she randomly comes in one day for a bunch, he helps her choose the perfect bouquet and unbeknownst to her he's an obsessed clown already and matches the shades of tulips to her lips.
Maybe she's the lead guide for a walking tour, and he's taken the tour multiple times and always asks her irrelevant questions to wind her up, they bicker and naturally fall into a huge flowerbed of tulips.
Maybe they're both tourists on a canal cruise, and just hit it off (in their argument/flirting type of way), everyone else on the boat can tell they're in love already, no overt tulips but just mentions of them as a constant in the scenery.
Maybe just a straight forward 420 'coffeeshop' smut (but the coffeeshop is called "2 lips" and their logo is a mouth taking a drag, get it? So the tulips thing is only in pun form here).
Anyway
These were some of the thoughts plaguing me when I kept seeing those flowers. I've not searched AO3 to see if any of those exist yet, but I can only assume there'll be something related.
I'd planned to have a relatively chill time and spend the few days in aimless exploration, perhaps even complete some of my unfinished add-on fic chapters or some edits in peace (ideally while sat in a cafe overlooking a canal).
But my sister invited herself along last minute (also did I kinda foreshadow this for myself, with the beginning of the last Anthony week fic 'Yours'? Lol), and planned so many things for us to do so that I wouldn't have a moment's rest. It was marvelous - my feet are just very very sore. I obviously need to go back solo...

Okay so I have been playing around with a little concept in my head for a while. Here Kate inherited a fortune from her mother's side of the family, who died when she was young from a heart condition that took her grandmother and her mother before away and is convinced she is set to the same fate. But before she passes away she wants to make sure Edwina finds her love match since word Kate is to die young has spread and many people are just interested in the fortune Eddie is to one day call hers. Anthony's family is very much indebted due to things from the past and he is very much seeking to seduce Edwina to have access to the money but well Kate wasn't on his plans. I want to set it in the 20s or 30s because idk it feels like it suits the story.
Kate Sharma, heiress to one of the biggest fortunes in England, is set on finding the perfect husband for her younger sister, Miss Edwina, given that her time on this earth is running out. Enter Viscount Bridgerton, notorious ladiesman, brazen libertine and head of the house Bridgerton, one of the oldest and most renowned families in the country —and one on the brisk of ruin.
When her sister starts entertaining the gentleman's (to call him something) advances, Kate has no option but to get involved to prove his true intentions. Anthony has run out of opportunities and needs to secure the Pillai fortune to save his family from ruin. Edwina is merely amused by the whole ordeal and perhaps a bit excited by the glint in her sister's eyes whenever the Viscount is around—one she had not seen since their Appa brought Newton the fat corgi home.
Any thoughts?
