En continuant

For one who had always had to fight for her place - who knew the ceaseless weariness of justifying her existence - the undemanding love of those around her would only have baffled Marthe. She had been a missile on a course of destruction, driven to deliver her news into the heart of a family that she saw did not want her. There was no sentimentality left in what Marthe had felt about Francis, Philippa, Richard or any of the others. She would not have looked for a kind word in the yard, and yet now she lay, delirious but pliant beneath the many hands that pushed her golden hair back from fever-sticky skin, those that squeezed her knuckles as their owners told her she could come through this, and those that clasped together in prayer over her bedside. Marthe survives the end of the series and has to come to terms with Francis's choice to destroy the document she brought him. Healing at Midculter, she tries to understand her place in the family that bears her less ill-will than she expected. From Lise's prompts:6. Prompt for an AU: Marthe lives AU! post-series terrible siblings.7. Prompt for a non-AU: post-series everyone dealing with their trauma.

what have we in common
by morethanfantasy
It wasn’t that she thought Francis always deserved bailing out of his own messes. But she was tired and annoyed, and sticking it to asshole men usually made her feel better. modern AU with Marthe, Francis, and identity shenanigans

The only one keeping me sane
by sshysmm
Oonagh O'Dwyer has been at the Nevada ashram controlled by Graham Reid Malett for over a year. Separated form her son, dosed with antipsychotics against her knowledge, and lapsing into the eating disorders of her youth, she's pretty much given up all hope. Just in time, Francis Crawford and his band arrive to infiltrate Malett's organisation, among them the mysterious Marthe, who finds herself growing protective of Oonagh despite her accustomed cynicism. And if that sounds rough, let me point out that Oonagh lives in this AU and so it beats what happens to her in canon. Originally posted on tumblr.

Save As Draft
by AnonymousWatermelon13
//TRIGGER WARNING. - Hints at suicide, severe depression //Sometimes we think we won't be missed and we get so stuck in the fog of depression that the people who are there somehow start to disappear. The fog got too dark for Marth and it consumed her.It is written from the perspective of the person left behind, in this YN is left asking why? How did she not notice? Could she have done something? As well as she is wracked with grief and missing of her beloved girlfriend Marth.This one-shot is her letter, it's one she knows she will never truly be able to send so instead she is left having to just save it as a draft...Honestly, this needs some work, it was written in a tear-stained depressive episode so it's not well perfect, but maybe when I'm in a better place one day ill go through it again and fix it up but for now it's going to stay the way it is.

Style
by AnonymousWatermelon13
And I wrote another one. This time I was on Tiktok and I saw an edit for Style by Taylor Swift, my brain immediately went, "Oh my word what if you replace Harry with Marth" and well this happened. Hope you enjoy it. Marth and YN are ex's that keep managing to find each other again. Falling in love over and over, having midnight drives, subtle suggestive hits at certain activities, and falling almost perfectly into the stereotypical bad girl, good girl stereotype, they never go out of Style.My apologies to Marth again for featuring her as a character again. We need more lesbian content and well what better inspiration, icon and stunning human being to use then miss Marthe Woertman so ahh yeah, hope you don't mind.

Wishful
by AnonymousWatermelon13
Marth has been in love with her best friend forever, but when she hears that her best friend just got a new girlfriend Marth feels her heartbreak.Putting on a happy face until her friend leaves, when she can finally break down. Will Marth ever confess her feelings or has she destined to be just the best friend forever.I was sad, wrote this.Not the greatest work but writing helps me not feel sad and unfortunately, poor Marth just got dragged in to become a character in a story so yeah... enjoy I guess??? Written in Marth's POV.If there are mistakes I'm sorry but they're gonna stay cause I'm not rereading this because if I do I WILL cry and I don't feel like doing that again because it's all I've done for the last week so yeah no. To be happier we write Marth fanfics. ON THE OFF CHANCE MARTH FINDS THESE I AM SO SORRY, THANK YOU FOR BEING AN AWESOME CHARACTER TO WRITE!

Asphyxiation

Staying with the Aga Morat (Baron Morgan in the AU) - Jerott is troubled by recent events and by his growing feelings for Marthe. Marthe has other fish to fry...Follows Delirium and Adrenaline.--Written for Whumptober 2019, set in the Band AU I've been writing (see collections).--There's 31 of these ficlets and I apologise profusely for burying other work in the tags. I will *always* tag these as 'the band au' and you can use this nifty extension (ao3rdr) to block the tag if this isn't your thing and isn't what you want to see in the Lymond tags!
