I've seen these fics from the Jane Austen fandom where a reader has somehow become part of the story, or even taken on the role of one of the characters, and then tries to make things work for their favorite. Given the potential for dire consequences if they do the wrong thing, I think there's plenty of tragic possibilities. You can still make JE tragic without Donna's canon fate, and I suspect the "self-insert" would try to avert one tragedy only to cause another.
