Summary
1918.The war is over, but for Flora Green, the battle never truly ended. A nurse hardened by the trenches of France, she returns to Small Heath with nightmares in her head and steady hands that never shake when stitching bullet wounds—no questions asked.
When a brawl at The Garrison puts her face-to-face with Thomas Shelby, Flora makes a decision that changes everything. One calm confrontation with Arthur Shelby later, she's caught the attention of the most dangerous family in Birmingham. Tommy's proposition is simple: three pounds weekly to be their personal nurse. It's enough money to eventually escape Small Heath forever, but the price isn't measured in currency alone.
As she moves between worlds—blending modern medicine with her mother's Romani remedies—Flora finds herself drawn into Tommy's orbit. But in a neighborhood where respectability matters and Tommy's women come with their own histories, Flora must decide how close to the fire she's willing to stand.
She tells herself it's just business. A means to an end. But when Tommy looks at her with those ice-blue eyes that see too much, or when his fingers brush against her cheek in the back room of The Garrison, even Flora's steady hands begin to tremble. -

Summary
/He blushes in just about the prettiest shade of pink Alfie has ever seen, and he fucking knows that this, this Tommy, right, he is truly going to be a handful, innit./
Tommy Shelby lands in the hospital with a TBI (traumatic brain injury) and Alfie Solomons is a physiotherapist - stuff happens.
This is my first Modern!AU for Peaky Blinders, and I am a bit nervous about it so please be kind :)
Prioritized this fic based on a poll - the people of Tumblr have spoken. Have another brain injury Tommy and caretaker Alfie fic.
(Let's be honest, hurt/comfort Tofie is simply the best, isn't it?)
I hope you enjoy![Title taken from Kaveh Akbar's poem "Pilgrim Bell"]

Summary
How did he cope with this? How did his family cope with this? And at the same time, how could anyone see him that way and consider it the prime time to abandon him? She had never felt more need to be right there, right at his side, than she had in those terrifying moments and she could not understand why the women of his past would ever leave him when his need for them, in those moments, would have been greater than ever.
Tommy lives with the fallout form a traumatic brain injury, and navigates a love life, a working life, and a family life that all seems to be massively impacted by that injury - sometimes, it feels like everyone else is more affected than he is.
