Separated by society, brought together by war; Branson & Sybil's story, beginning where the first series left off!

Sybil and Branson battle their way through their feelings for each other and the effects of the war. But will they make it through the drama of the appearance of a dashing Count? New readers can jump in at chapter 8 as it's the 1/2 way mark so to speak.

...and so does hope, at an unlikely time and from an unexpected source.

Set around the battle of Somme, a strange occurance brings together Matthew, Sybil and Anna and takes them into the world of the subconscious. Contains some Sybil/Branson, Matthew/Mary and Anna/Bates. Important chapter 6 now up!

My version of what happened after the Garden Party - my first fic.

Drives with Branson take Sybil to surprising destinations.

When Sybil had proposed going for a jaunt to town, he had agreed - nothing, he was almost certain, could go wrong. Except, of course, that it had, and he really should've known better than to think such things.

Snapshots of Sybil and Branson; the distance between them, the closeness that forms despite it. Part 10 - Closeness.

Conversations that were left out of The Politics Of Love.

"He should have told her that she was gorgeous, an utter vision, that every man would be watching her." Sybil and Branson are left hopeless, and maybe still just a little bit hopeful. chapt 3.

The story follows Sybil Crawley and Tom Branson from the day after the Count in Ripon, into Sybil's first season in London, to the onset of the Great War in the summer of 1914. Will contain some Matthew/Mary and Anna/Bates.

A story about the forbidden love between my favourite characters of Downton Abbey, Branson and Sybil.

A closer look at Branson and Sybil throughout the series, starting a week or so after the incident at Ripon.

Branson is hardly the type to go back on a promise; let alone when it's to her. Promises are kept, schemes are made, and truthes are revealed...

Takes place after Series One, as Downton awaits the end of the war and the return of their young men and the heir.

Matthew gets hot and sweaty. Mary drinks beer. Then there's dancing. Matthew/Mary obviously with small side helpings of Anna/Bates and Sybil/Branson for blatant fan service. Set during S01E04.

"Be careful, my lad, or you'll end up with no job and a broken heart." Her voice was not stern, it was sympathetic, but she was warning him off all the same. Branson/Sybil
