[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

( she shook her head with a sigh. ) and risk ruining her image of being so kind in taking in her husband’s ward? i don’t imagine she will.

if it’s too much, i will gladly walk.

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

that sounds perfectly lovely to me. ( she’s not going to complain, and she actually is totally okay with this plan. ) what are you acquiring at the apothecary?

[𝗔 𝗡 𝗗 𝗥 𝗘 𝗧 𝗧 𝗜 @BR0KNHALO]

i am to go to the apothecary for some ingredients and then i should fancy some ice cream, is that alright? ( even if it isn't, she is already walking down the street. )

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

/ any marriage opportunity for sophie. possibly sabotaging any opportunity she might’ve had up until this point??

i’m not entirely sold, but, that’s where my thought process is rn.

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

/ i absolutely think that despite sophie being in society, araminta still has issue with her.

i imagine that it’s worse than how she treats posy; super passive aggressive, very cutting. 😔

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

/ and of course she didn’t get rid of sophie after the earl died; but she made SURE to tell people that she kept sophie as a final wish of her husband, making herself look so saintly for it, etc.

sophie’s likely been out for a few seasons, araminta never really pursued —

i do want to make sure you know i’m grateful, though. ( she lets out a soft laugh. ) oh, not particularly, i’ll gladly accompany you if there’s something you need to do.

[𝗔 𝗡 𝗗 𝗥 𝗘 𝗧 𝗧 𝗜 @BR0KNHALO]

do not mention it at all, i am most grateful for company. ( offering a smile. ) is there anything you would want to do?

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

we shall! ( she is very grateful. )

thank you, miss crane.

[𝗔 𝗡 𝗗 𝗥 𝗘 𝗧 𝗧 𝗜 @BR0KNHALO]

( hooking her arm around her. ) shall we?

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

if anyone would accompany her on a walk, it would be appreciated.

she needs to get out of the house for a while.

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

oh, weddings are so wonderful!

and for such a special pair.

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

good morrow, sister.

[𝓜𝐈𝐒𝐒 𝓟𝐄𝐑𝐅𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 @trvstworthiness]

( sighs )

good morrow , dearest friends .

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

it seems to be a lovely day.

she might go for a stroll, if she can.

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

… she has so many questions and yet does not want any answers.

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

@sunshinecrowns she?

“in the meantime, i am grateful to have your company.”

sophie looked at the canvas he abandoned, then benedict.

“what were you working on? i apologize if I disturbed you. that was not at all my intention.” she was talking too much, maybe. a sudden case of nerves.

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

going to the bridgerton house for tea was so familiar, sophie felt like she could navigate the home in her sleep. she had become friends with eloise and francesca when they were all younger, and she often came around every, or every other, day, whether to chat, have tea, —

[* 𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐧 | has seen pt 2 @SlLVERELLAS]

@sunshinecrowns she’s gathering some books to lend me; or to return.” the two had in recent years begun the habit of sharing book recommendations, passing tomes between them.

but she did not believe eloise would do this with any intention, leaving sophie alone with her brother. or would —
