John Bates is Lord of Downton Abbey. He isn't very happy, until a young maid opens his heart.

Set during the 2012 Christmas Special. Enjoying a fine picnic with his wife, Mr Bates thinks about the past, the present and what the future might bring.

One-shot that is the definition of Baby Bates fluff. Those who have read "Let Her Be A Child" especially will be happy, I think.

My first ever fanfic, about my favourite Downton couple Anna and mister Bates. The story begins a few months after their trip to the highlands. Will they live the life they had always dreamed of?

Anna and Bates meet at a wedding, but when disaster strikes and they are forced together will it bring them closer or tear them apart?

One-shot. Set during S02E01. Really self-explanatory. Sweet for them, bittersweet for us.

I'm sure that first kiss we saw in the series wasn't their REAL first kiss. This is how I hope it happened ;-) - My first prompt -

Anna is having a bad day, made worse by going to a place she'd rather not. But things can turn around, and as she discovers, surprises are in store. One-shot, written for Anna/Bates 'first kiss' prompt challenge. Set between 1.6 and 1.7.

First Kiss prompt by The Servant's Hall. Set after 1X07 and before 2X01, Molesley's meddling during a village party leads Anna to ask Mr. Bates some unsettling questions.

2:08-Christmas Episode from Mr. Bates point of view. What could he have been thinking on his wedding day and his trial and execution day? I credit this work to Carnival, Masterpiece and Mr. Fellowes. The original canon is a work of art and I have no desire to tarnish it. This is my first fan fiction and I hope that it pleases my fellow Bates/Anna fans. Thank you for reading.

John and Anna begin their family life at Downton. A series of scenes and special moments from their cottage. These moments will not necessarily be in chronological order and will be posted when inspiration strikes. Reviews are greatly appreciated!

A one shot that I wrote combining two prompts. John and Anna with their grandchild and celebrating their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary.

One shot. Anna is ill and John is in charge for the day.

Anna & John have enjoyed a few wonderful years happily married before the tides of bliss turn on them once again. They are still madly devoted to one another but soon harsh realities will twist their world around leaving them muddling through sorrow and eventually doubt. What more will life ask them to survive? And will they? This is a work in progress.

A Banna-Shipping three-part one-off for Midsummer, with little magic and a bit of the Bard. I just want them to be happy. These characters are not mine.

Just a little extra conversation in a pub. The section in italics is not mine. Neither are these characters.

Anna and John attempt to rekindle their relationship following his return.

As that time of the year arrives, Anna reminisces on birthdays past and present and knows in her heart that now, in 1922, she has all that she has ever wished for and more.

After his release from prison Anna tries to become comfortable around her husband again. Something of a sequel to Comfortable. No smut.

Two hearts, finding each other unexpectedly, fighting through adversity, celebrating in joy - becoming one. Anna and Bates throughout their relationship, in scenes throughout the series of Downton (canon and AU), and how their love conquers all.

Mr Bates has been released but he and Anna have had little time alone together. Now they have their cottage and it is their first night together. Will it be everything they expected and wished it to be or will the scars of John's imprisonment cause them problems?

Bates has something to Anna. Something that it was meant to be hers. Takes place during their first night in the cottage.

Anna and John celebrate their first Christmas as husband and wife.

Anna and John Bates have to manage unexpected frustration when a new footman joins the house.

When Anna gets a nasty case of the flu, she is sent to bed. Mr. Bates intends to make everything better. Will he discover wonderful things in the process? Featuring Lady Mary, Mrs. Hughes, O'Brien, Daisy, Mrs. Patmore, Carson, and Dr. Clarkson. The ending is fluffier than Lady Mary's linens. Hope you guys like it! Reviews are always welcome!
