Summary
The marriage of convenience fic no one asked for.
The morning after the Netherfield Ball, while Mr Collins is proposing to Elizabeth, Mr Bennet collapses. With her father unconscious and apparently near death, her mother pressuring her to marry Mr Collins, and the gentleman himself ignoring her protests, suddenly saying 'no' is not so easy. Faced with poverty and homelessness if she continues refusing, the gossip soon reaches Netherfield that she will have to marry Mr Collins. Just as Mr Darcy is about to mount his horse and follow Mr Bingley to London, never to return, he overhears the servants talking. The thought of Elizabeth married to a fool like Mr Collins is unbearable to him, and he resolves to make her a better offer. But, when she refuses him, he finds that he's willing to do anything for love - even marry her without the hope of being with her.

Summary
One would think that having the name of one's soulmate appear on one's wrist on one's sixteenth birthday would make matrimony much less complicated. It mostly does not. And not at all for Miss Elizabeth Bennet of Longbourne.
(A deconstruction of the "soulmate identifying mark" trope, using "Pride and Prejudice." Trigger warnings in the tags.)

Summary
Rolan doesn't know anything about paladin oaths, but what he does know is that the paladin who arrives in the grove is fundamentally good, and it infuriates him. She has no right to get in anyone's business, no right to make him feel inferior for just wanting to keep himself and his siblings safe. Who cares if she's as beautiful, strong and humble as she is righteous? Who cares if he makes a complete ass of himself every time he talks to her? Who cares if her companions don't like him? Who cares if she pushes him to be a better man?
And even if he did care, or think she was beautiful, or dream about her when he closed his eyes, what would someone so fundamentally good want with him anyway?
