Prompt: For the
tw_harlequin Challenge. Though it's less Harlequiny and more plot/dialogue/character!fic. Because I can't help myself, even when I try and write smush. That and the books I read for research made me cry laughing. Anywho, I gave it a shot, and this is the quick-fic version of the epic masterpiece I wanted to write. ;)
My prompt was:
A Most Unconventional CourtshipBenedict Casper Chancellor, Earl of Blakeney, is the kind of elegantly conservative English lord that Alessa despises. She wants nothing to do with him-even if he is shaped like a Greek statue come to life! But the maddening man seems determined to wrest her away from her comfortable life in beautiful Corfu. Worse, he'll return her to the bosom of her stuffy family.
The Earl hasn't anticipated Alessa's propensity to get herself into a scrape. Now, in order to rescue her, this highly conventional Englishman will have to turn pirate!
A/N: And now, ladies and gentlemen (quit yer gigglin' at the back there!) we present to you, the mature and sensible (oy! I said quit yer gigglin'!)
Torchwood version of the above summary. Er. Yeah. Maybe I should go cross out the "mature and sensible" from the poster... ^_^' More Bond than Mills and Boon, perhaps. ;)
Oh, and please, please, please point out any mistakes you may happen to spot. My spellcheck on my laptop has vanished into the ether...
