    Summary

    Marian hesitates for a moment, knowing in that instant, if she walks into that ballroom with Larry, she’ll be taking a risk. Taking the chance that maybe there is a bit of magic left in the world, and it lives in this absolutely brilliant man who walked into her life one day and lodged himself in her heart.

    For the first time in her life, she chooses to trust her heart rather than her history, and she takes his arm.

    *

    Set during and after the season three finale. Marian and Larry talk through their problems.

    Summary

    Tasked with an assignment by his father in Doylestown, Larry Russell doesn't expect to meet a young librarian and fall hopelessly in love. Marian Brook, for her part, never expected an out-of-towner would be the person who opens her entire world. But as they realize they can no longer live without each other, they need to find a place to exist together, in a world that seems rather determined to drive them apart.

    Or, a Larian AU where Marian never moved to New York.

    Summary

    This used to be chapter 4 of "you are in love" - I moved it into its own work, because I didn't think it fit the tone of that story, and it kept bugging me whenever I thought about updating the story.

    Marian wears a nightdress to bed. Larry proposes he teach her a lesson for breaking his rules by spanking her over his knee. Marian is stunned to discover how much she enjoys this lesson.

    Set at some point in a fictional Larry/Marian marriage.
