Fics like If Only There Was A Word Called Adulting

What if Anne and Frederick had kept their first engagement, braving through the challenges of war-induced separation, the Elliot family's disapproval and a starter income? This modern AU brings all the contexts that broke canon Anne and Frederick apart to the 21st century. The story is told in 27 chapters and 9 parts, with each 3-chapter part themed on a verse of Joni Mitchell's song Both Sides Now. With Anne, Mary and Frederick's POV's taking 3 parts each (Clouds, Love, and Life) it explores the multifaceted nature of young love when the two people involved are forced to grow up too soon - a life with great challenges but also amazing intangible rewards. P&P crossover starts chapter 6 (chapter 7 including prologue).
