Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

It just occurred to me that whoever was on their way to Pemberley would definitely be upset once they saw that Wickham was there. ...

Indeed!

My dears, chapter 20 is up. It's stormy, to put it mildly. But you will so enjoy what happens to Wickham...

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Darn! The Colonel didn't do Wickham in. That means he will be back for revenge. At least, Darcy memory is finally returning. The scene with the hot poker was just depicted in an episode of "The Tudors" here in the US. Ugh. Malena, More please.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Seems that Darcy’s memory is returning but not fast enough. Will the Colonel now turn his wrath upon his cousin and beat Darcy into remembrance!
Will Wickham make his way back to Hertfordshire?
Will Darcy be at Pemberley when Elizabeth arrives?

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Was it? Tudors huh? Is it by the BBC? Never seen it. I read the anecdote in a historical novel called "The Three Edwards" Edward II is said to have suffered the horrible treatment, but as I pointed out in the note it was probably political gossip meant against Isabel, his wife and supposed murderer.
Thank you for the supportive comment!

Thank God Georgie will not have to face the vile Wickham. And now Wickham has sworn venges on both of them unfortunately he is aware of Darcy's partiallity to Elizabeth.

Indeed! And Wickham surely will use that power!!! ...Or not ...

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

I breathed a loud sigh of relief as Colonel Fitzwilliam--not the brightest bulb, is he?--FINAllY figured it out. The way you set up his character is very funny.

My heart raced as I read and it was wonderful--all the angst you had built so expertly was exploding in happy revelation.

....But then. Will and his cousin fighting about Wickham? Why did Will stop the Colonel from sticking that hot poker where the sun don't shine--or, otherwise finishing him off? Is it because his time as a purported man of God makes Darcy squeamish about murder and mayhem--okay, I understand that.

I have so many questions. You must post as soon as conveniently possible for you, in order to save me from imploding upon myself with curiosity. You will save me, won't you? Seriously, this story is wonderfully fresh and surprising and EXCELLENT!!

I am most gratified by your words, my dear. I thank you.

Indeed, Wickham did not deserve such horrible treatment. , and the colonel was ,I am convinced, just bragging about it. And Darcy is not squeamish, mind you. He is simple reluctant to murdering people in his main parlour.

Be safe, I will save you. The chapter is already written. It only takes my dear beta to read it once. She is a sweet dear lady and surely will do it over the weekend.
Tha you again and again. Your words certainly invigorates my muse.

"...taste the flavor of your own blood..." Brilliant! Great chapter!


Thanks, sweetheart! I have forgotten the hateaur that Wickham can inspire.

The colonel is not much appreciated, either. In most stories the poor man usually ends up contenting himself with Darcy's leftovers. I have not been very generous with him either. Must rectify this sometime and write about a good Wickham and a vindicated Colonel Fitzwilliam. But...will anybody read such a story?

I must admit a certain prejudice when it comes to Wickham. A good Wickham? Hmmm. . .

I am perfectly happy to see Colonel F as a hero, perhaps of a tale that focuses upon him. But, Wickham? You would really need to explain the premises of such a story to me because it is not immediately obvious.

But, given your talent, I think you would be able to persuade us.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Wickham's character is explicable in view of his upbringing as the only son of a spoiled mother who never had enough. He's not bad through and through, but selfish, deceiving, lazy, a hopeless liar and pretty stupid. So, I can imagine a story in which his behaviour is explained psychologically and in that sense made comprehensible. But to turn him into a good person would go too far perhaps... unless he marries Elizabeth, a personality who might have authority over him and have a good influence on him. However, we wouldn't want Elizabeth marry him, do we?

That is a what I call a brainway. Yet, though I can imagine the storyline, I cannot stand the idea of Elizabeth ending up married with him.For me is just Elizabeth and Darcy. There must be another solution for his bad character!!!

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Nah, it goes too far... Elizabeth belongs to Darcy, period!

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Loved the threatening, heroic colonel! I like him when he's angry! Thanks for the exciting new chapter, Malena. It was good for the colonel & Darcy to meet up again after so long apart.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Malena, "The Tudors" is an original Showtime Production starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers, another hunk. The main production company is Ireland-Canada for Octagon films and several other production companies. It's very lavish and the acting is excellent. The next season will deal with Henry the Eight"s last two wives.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Well hopefully after the Colonel tried to pummel Wickham and instead hit Darcy's face he will get his memory back. Hmmm. I just can't stand the Wick and I agree with the Colonel - he is a slimy snake. Looking forward to after the weekend for the next chapter. Hopefully Monday.

Yes! I like the colonel too! I have Rupert Perny Jones in mind as I am writing this. Yummy!!!

I ll see if I can watch it through the internet.Sounds very interesting. I love JRM. He played an excellent George Osbourn in Vanity Fair a few years ago. He is the guy I have in mind when I write Wickham. Angelically wicked.

Hopefully Monday!!! I am struggling with chater 8 of ANS here. And my beta for PP is to her ears with real life (school and things) so I am afraid you will have to wait a fortnight for it.
As to Darcy being beaten back to his memory! Hahahaha You are too funny!!!

It does from the main page, though.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Try to refresh your page. The link works fine.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

At first the idea of a Darcy who does not remember who he is, in bed with his younger sister, was a wee bit uncomfortable to contemplate.

But we can be confident that nothing untoward would happen because this is Darcy. I think you are exploring the relationship between memory and identity? It seems that in forgetting who he was, Darcy has truly found himself, and each time he recovers a specific memory--here, the nickname Sprout--it is symbolic for him finding the better man in himself.

Love all this insightful comment. Thank you Lacy.I am certain you are quite correct. He is little by little finding himself.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

So glad for the new chapter. I hope Georgie is sincere and Mrs Amlesy tell Darcy or the col of their meeting with Wichy.

I still fear for Lizzy for I sure he will extract his revenge on Darcy through her.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

I do wish Darcy would confide in someone regarding his memory loss. Wickham’s quest for revenge will be even more damaging if no one but he knows Darcy’s secret.
Hurry back with more!

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Poor Darcy, his memory keeps coming back in bits and pieces. I wish he would at least tell Georgie the truth. Wickham and revenge...what else did he do while at Pemberley? More please

Can hardly wait for Elizabeth's arrival. This promises to be very entertaining. Thanks, Malena.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Great chapter.
I say, if Wick wants revenge he would know that he could get it through the Bennets. Lets hope Elizabeth is safe from the deceiver/seducer.

Love the reconnect with Darce and Georgiana.

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Chapter 22 is up, my dears. Enjoy! More to come soon!

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Excited to see the update!

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

You have been very unfair, the updates are very slow coming and that chapter was very short and Elizabeth & William are still miles apart
my heart is trembling and nerves are fluttering with anticipations and anxieties.
I hate to comments when each time I read, you're putting more miles between E&D
I hope you won't let Darcy bow to Lady C commanments will Elizabeth joins Darcy at Pemberley while the Fitzwilliam in residence?
will the Bingley turn up at anytime soon?
always anxiously waiting for your next updates

Chapter 23 and 24 have just been posted. Enjoy!

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Many fanfictions do not assume that Darcy and Lady Catherine's daughter were betrothed "in their cradles," and, indeed, that is often considered a fantasy of the inestimable Lady Cat--though some call it a demented delusion.

In this universe, we find that not only is it so but it was sanctioned by Darcy's father in his will?

Lady Catherine was saying something Darcy did not catch, such was his confusion. He was absorbed in his meditations, trying to figure out how he would extricate himself from the chore his father had laid at his door, for he would not immolate himself at his cousin's altar of love for the world.


Huh. . . well, that certainly puts Darcy in a pickle of a straitjacket, not to mix my metaphors too finely.

And Elizabeth is on her way to her beloved William, only to find out he is the same as Darcy? She will eventually find out, right, although already this mixed-up identities has gone on longer than I might ever have imagined. Richard seems to suggest that Darcy could marry Lady Cat's Anne but then ask Elizabeth to be his mistress? It's to his credit Darcy does not even consider this idea.

I am also surprised to find that Richard, Georgiana's guardian and defacto father, is considered also to be her betrothed--though he intends to wait until she has grown up to marry her. It seems strange to those of us with modern sensibilities--but speaking of sensibilities, Colonel Brandon in JA's S&S was twice the age of Marianne when he married her. So older men and cousin-to-cousin--okay, I get it.

I have no idea of what might happen next. Thank you for your original and compelling vision.

It is difficult to see this arranged marriage issue as sth acceptable in our occidental modern society. But do not forget that to this day many modern societies do have this arrangement and are quite content with it. Take India and Africa to mention only 2. Have you had a look at the film 'Bride and Prejudice'? That Boliwood film brings up this very subject quite nicely in a Darcy Elizabeth context.As to regent times the subject is also brought up in the recent film 'Georgiana' featuring Keira Knighly. Apparently young ladies had been persuaded of the fantasy that that was true love!

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Malena, I am so worried that you have something bad planned for E & D so they will not cross paths & not meet in time! The conversations between Darcy & the colonel were so much fun. Yes, they were born to breed...LOL! Your chapters are so amusing!!

Thank you Lucy. All I can ever wish for is to know that readers find my writing as amusing as I do. Thank you fortelling me. It is an author's sole rewarding

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Well, I'm sure Elizabeth will have no issue with them marrying straight away, though she might be a bit shock to learn her William is Mr Darcy of Pemberley, but I'm sure she'll be over it.

It really cute that Darcy still act like a parson at times, I wonder if he'll remember the incident by longbourn brook before soon

thanks for the update Malena, though it generally leave me thrist for more.

if we could see darcy and lizzy united soon, much appriciated

Re: Malena's Parson's Pleasure

Of course Fitzwilliam’s love interest will be Darcy’s Elizabeth. It can only get more comical and complicated from here! And the Matlock’s promoting a match between Darcy & Caroline & Bingley & Anne! Did Darcy hear anything Lady Catherine said about Mr. Collins going to visit his family in Hertfordshire!
This is too funny!



Kiss Anne here!
