Summary
A modernization of North and South in which Margaret Hale is a social worker and John Thornton owns tenements where people live in poverty. Inspired by FaithBW's Back To You, but the plot diverges widely. I draw on my own experience as a social worker to imagine Margaret's life in a modern-day Milton, and I draw on my own... *cough* obsession with Richard Armitage to create what I hope is a particularly smoldering John Thornton.
Thank you to my new North and South Book Club friends for the inspiration to write my first N&S fic!
All pics and gifs are of Richard Armitage as Lucas North in Spooks/MI5, the character who most closely matches my image of the modern-day Thornton.
The title comes from the Depeche Mode song "Wrong," because John and Margaret keep finding each other "at the wrong place at the wrong time, asking the wrong questions with the wrong replies."

Summary
‘I was endeavouring to help you, Miss Hale!’ his voice rose further with his temper, and Margaret hoped Dixon would soon interrupt. ‘You looked faint, I did not wish you to fall.’ He exhaled deeply, and ran a hand through his hair. ‘I see now it would have caused me far less consternation to have permitted you to bleed on my cobbles, than to act as a gentleman.’
‘You are no gentleman, Mr Thornton.’
