About this listen
Excerpt: “Mama, I won’t cause any problems, I promise,” pleaded twenty-year-old Elizabeth Bennet pleaded as she struggled to comprehend what her parents were saying during their argument in the family’s small parlor. Her father’s words were easy enough to catch, but her mother’s shrill voice was garbled and beginning to give Lizzy a headache. While twisting her head between Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, the tears began to spill from her eyes and down her cheeks.
Sitting on the settee next to Elizabeth, her elder sister and dearest friend and companion Jane Bennet, took her hand in support. “Mama,” Jane interjected, “Lizzy attending the local assemblies has never been an issue before. Why should she not attend the autumn assemble this evening?”
“Because, Jane dearest, we have never had a wealthy and eligible new neighbor attending our local assembly before. Mr. Bingley must be given only the very best impression of you and our family. We can’t have your sister embarrassing us the first time he meets you.”
With her mother’s more subdued speech and her turning to face Jane, and thus herself, Lizzy was able to understand each painful word that Mrs. Bennet had spoken. Blinking away the tears and turning her head, she looked directly at Jane before acquiescing to her mother’s demands. “It will be fine, Janie. Papa says he is an affable young man, and Charlotte Lucas says that Sir William reports that he is also handsome. Mama is right. You will make a splendid impression on him. And I will be able to meet him after he has fallen in love with you.” She finished by giving his beautiful but shy sister a teasing smile.

Story
This is a story of friendship that defies all odds and survives and flourishes regardless of the impediments that arise. The friendship is born out of an almost tragedy and extreme bravery by one Elizabeth Bennet. In saving the lives of those in peril, she thwarts the designs of one of the villains of this tale and makes an enemy of the person. As in canon, our Anne is sickly. In this variation, it is because she had suffered a bad case of childhood scarlet fever. For the purposes of this story, the disease has seriously weakened her cardiovascular system.

Rather than protect their daughter like any good parent should, first Fanny and then Thomas Bennet push their sixteen-year-old daughter Elizabeth into a marriage with a much older man who happens to be a duke. Fanny is seduced by the fact he is a duke, even if he is not interested in Jane, something she cannot believe at first, and his willingness to dower her remaining four daughters. For Bennet, when the Duke offers to break the entail on Longbourn after a certain condition is met, his half-hearted opposition to the match dissipates.

When Darcy and Elizabeth meet for the first time – or is it the second? – he mistakes her for a wood nymph. Excerpt: “Well, are you coming in?” After a pause, the gatekeeper, presumably St. Peter, repeated more slowly as if he was speaking to slow-witted children, “So are you two coming in or staying out there?” Darcy spoke first, “I don’t think I’m finished yet. I have more that I need to accomplish. My sister isn’t yet married, and…and...

Great story
In this story Elizabeth has a bad hearing after a childhood illness. She is also loathed from Mrs Bennet due to surviving the illness her twin brother did not. Great Jaff.

Mrs. Bennett is mean, as usual.
Elizabeth and her twin brother contract scarlet fever. The boy dies but Elizabeth recovers. Unfortunately Elizabeth suffers hearing loss from the fever. She is not completely deaf, but does suffer dissabilities, which her mother finds embarrassing. She even wants to send Elizabeth away to an asylum so people won't know of her problem. Mrs. Bennett is also angry that her sole male child, Elizabeth's twin, dies but Elizabeth lives. Darcy meets Elizabeth. He ends up in love with Elizabeth, of course, and does not find her loss of hearing objectionable at all.
