a story about lovers, superiors, friends - and a bored countess. baxter and molesley, just because jf didn't.

Slightly late (sorry!) entry for the Christmas fanfic exchange. Picture was the cover image, the word was 'velvet'. Set in December 1901. Robert is sent home from South Africa but will he overcome his struggles?

Spoilers for the final episode. After observing his hasty retreat with cup and saucer in hand, Mrs. Hughes considers the actions of her husband over the past few weeks and comes to a decision.

Secret Santa fic for Shana-Rose. Prompt: S2 AU; Sybil overhears Tom getting asked out by someone and then stupidly convinces him to go out with the other girl and finds herself following them on their outing.

A Christmas Sequel (of sorts) to Easter Break. We revisit Charles and Elsie during December 2018 and find out what's happening in everyone's lives - how has Charles adjusted to being a Grandfather? How are Anna & John coping with the book store? And what is Elsie hiding from the others?

Spoilers for Series Finale. The Bates' story told from a different perspective. This is complete and total fluff. And as the series ends, a big thank you to all of the wonderful fic writers in this fandom! I hope to keep reading more adventures of the Bates family! Please read and review. Apologies for any errors/typos.

Romance blossoms at the Servants' Ball when Mrs Hughes wears a new dress and Anna does her hair differently. Nerves arise early, but dancing and encouragement from unexpected people helps the process.

Anna and John's Christmas morning. Modern. One shot.

In later years, Anna was always to remember it as one of the happiest days of her life; a brief interlude of sunshine, the last glimmer of light before darkness finally fell, the last bright blaze of a fire before it was stamped out.

A birthday one-shot for silhouettedswallow, in which we learn about two of Carson's secrets. Also starring Edith, Marigold, and Mrs. Hughes. S6 CS SPOILERS. Happy Birthday, my dear! :)

NO PAIRINGS in this fic. This is an analysis of Isobel's character after events which would have happened after the finale told from her pov to her son at his grave. Really not my usual cup of tea but I would very grateful for any constructive critisism and reviews :)

Majorly fluffy drabble set during Edith and Bertie's honeymoon in Paris.

He thought he had her under his control, but then, her hope was restored at the least expected of places.

Anna and Bates spend an unexpected Christmas in the cottage. Set during the S6 Christmas Special. Written for the Tumblr Secret Santa for eady-of-old.

The youngsters of Downton village - ten-year-old Matthew Crawley, his little cousins, Mary, Edith and Sybil, Tommy Branson, Evelyn Napier, Lavinia Swire, Daisy Robinson, Billy Mason, and Thomas Barrow - are in the annual parish Nativity play at church. Shyness and sibling rivalry give way to simplicity, innocence and charm. Also features the grownups of Downton village.

Modern AU for the Banna Secret Santa Exchange. "The day of the nativity reveal, John returned home to find Anna sat at the kitchen table, shoulders hunched over and head in her hands, all hopes of sparkly dresses gone."

"Je me fous que tu sois "en pleine partie", tu me mets ça sur pause ou tu m'éteins cette console, mais tu bouges ton cul de mon plancher." Ou comment Thomas et Jimmy ont une discussion passionnante au sujet des jeux vidéos, qui pourrait les mener à quelque chose de bien plus important encore...

His hand reached out and found hers once more, each becoming accustomed to the perfect fit. "Not even a guilty man can be condemned forever, not for one deed, not if they're a good person." "How can a guilty man be a good man?" She asked, unsure of whether she'd wanted to hear his answer. "That's when you judge him for his heart, not for his mistakes." / Set S2 X-mas special.

"I promise, Mister Bates. I believe in your innocence, and I won't rest until you are free," Anna Smith said, addressing him with all the ideological innocence of a new solicitor.

A thousand words to paint a picture.

The snow reflects them; refraction and reflection.

Baby Bates' arrival :D One shot.

Mary finally learns why Tom kept pushing her towards Henry. Will they begin a life together or will it all go up in flames?

She loved him for not asking why she was twirling like a lunatic, outside in a blizzard wearing his mother's dress and nothing on her feet. It was so George. (OC is Elsie Mary Bates - Anna and John's daughter)
