Blurb: “During the party where news of Anne’s engagement spreads, Elizabeth has the chance to reflect on the evening and her future. Elizabeth’s point of view. Pure fluff.”
Rating: clean: very short-one-shot:
“Some nights are made for torture, or reflection, or the savoring of loneliness.” –Poppy A. Brite
For the most part, we rarely get to see what people are really like due to the absolute control of their outward appearance. However, in their quiet reflections, we often see the true picture. Consider Elizabeth Elliot … that night’s party was to be her triumph with Mr. Elliot as her reward. All was now lost with the announcement of her younger sister Anne’s engagement to Captain Wentworth. As she stood near the window, her appearance reflected bright and shiny; however, her true thoughts and ruminations were anything but. As much as she hated to… she would have to consider the only course of action left to her… that’s what she would do. Things were looking bright again.

Reality leaves a lot to the imagination. ~ John Lennon
Elizabeth Elliot regrets having a second younger sister engaged to marry. And her sister Anne chose that Naval officer instead of her father's heir who now glances at Mrs. Clay instead of herself.
Elizabeth does not intend to be the sister left forever looking after her father. Where can she turn for advice?

I wonder if JA would have thought Elizabeth was aware enough of those around her to have recognized the danger that Mrs Clay posed before it became fact. I don't recall enough of that part of canon to know whether there were hints.
