Summary
When embarking on their anonymous email experiment, The Rules that TinternAbbeys and MrsMacaulayKnowsAll had set up were very clear:
1. No personally identifying information of any kind
2. No looking the other person up at all
3. No texts/calls/meeting in person
4. These messages are a way to reclaim a dying form of communication, so at least try to keep to some level of etiquette - it’s the correspondence that’s the point!Rule number four is easy to follow. The other three, less so…especially after Tom Hayward and Mary Bennet meet for (what they think is) the very first time.
A modern AU loosely inspired by the film You’ve Got Mail.

Summary
"She had already helped to engineer Mary’s escape once before. The Gardiners, of course, had been very willing co-conspirators, and she had found a rather unexpected ally in Mr. Collins.
The task of reuniting Mary with Mr. Hayward, however, would not be nearly as simple. Nor could she guarantee that doing so would necessarily bring about a happy result.
However, if Lizzy’s instincts were correct, it had the potential to restore the happiness of more than just her beloved sister."
***
Mary makes the regrettable decision to return to Pemberley with her mother after refusing Mr. Ryder's proposal. Elizabeth Darcy sees an opportunity help her sister in a significant fashion. Hijinks ensue. Canon-divergent.
