Yes, I'm crossposting a sigh.
I deeply crave Darcy/Elizabeth fic right now (more than usual!), but like ... Darcy/Elizabeth fic within the general vicinity of my own interpretations, which means there are approximately nine fics that fit them and don't include NOPE content, all of which I have read countless times.
(Nope content: sexy sophisticated alpha male Darcy, hyper-aggressive Elizabeth, virtually all Colonel Fitzwilliam ships with P&P characters unless it's both Elizabeth and Darcy *cough* where is it, Jane morphing into a Strong Female as if she weren't already, I could go on, gosh why can't I find fic.)
Anyway. I have a mighty craving—hence writing it. But I'm so far from the stage of the novel (post-Lydiagate canon or AU) that I actually want to read about. *triple sigh*
(No, I haven't changed at all since I was a resident Judgy McJudgerperson in centralized Austen fandom.)

As far as Darcy/Elizabeth goes ... anything by tree is good, and my friend tulinlina/Tulina wrote two moderns I really love, and Depths of Attachment by Ali (preserved here) remains a fave. I really liked Victoria CL's stuff, too ("William" aside).
Darcy describes his relationship with Fitzwilliam as one of "constant intimacy," which is like... that kind of thing deserves a ship, but Darcy/Elizabeth is my otp of ultimate destiny. Ergo Elizabeth/Darcy/Fitzwilliam!
