Fics like The Weight of the World

To the world, Benedict Bridgerton is a charming bohemian artist. But behind the smiles, he inhabits a universe of sensory assaults where the sound of bells pierces like blades and touch is an intolerable weight. ​Since the death of his father, Benedict has been left "without skin," with Anthony as his only anchor. But as a new Season begins and his symptoms sharpen, the arrival of Sophie Beckett, the daughter of an old family friend, changes everything. ​Between sensory crises and whispered dances, Benedict must learn that love doesn’t have to be an assault, and Anthony must accept that someone else might finally know how to translate the silence. Or: Benedict is neurodivergent. Autistic, precisely, even if he lives in an era where his condition is seen only as extravagance or quirkiness. Anthony, the rest of the family, and finally Sophie, however, will always remain by his side.
