When the dead speak we should listen.

If all it took was a heated argument, Spanish Flu, or a world war, it would have happened years ago. So just what would it take for Mr. Carson and Mrs. Hughes to admit that they have feelings for each other? **UNFINISHED - sorry folks**

A collection of little one shots that will form a complete story in the end. Small scenes of the Carson/Hughes relationship we all want so badly to become canon soon.

Thomas stopped Edward killing himself that night. Here's what happened next.

War has a habit of challenging even the strongest but no parent ever deserved such trial or pain. When Miss Sybbie ran off to London after the Blitz of May 1941, Thomas Barrow's alliances are redrawn. OS sequel to Lux Facta Est and Et la lumière fut, 3x05 AU. Contribution to the "Mind the Gap" Challenge.

The old man stood at the grave until a young woamn, a girl in his mind, found him.

Modern!AU in which Mr. Barrow gives up smoking and instead takes up lollipops, much to Jimmy's dismay. In the Mr. Barrow Gets the Guy series. *Spoiler alerts for Mr. Barrow Has a Chat, Mr. Barrow Takes a Half-Day, Mr. Barrow Tells a Secret, and Mr. Barrow Loses His Glove*

Mr. Barrow stares at him, apparently uncomprehending, for a long, long moment. Then he takes a sharp breath in. "Exactly how hard did you hit your head, Jimmy?" he asks slowly, and his face has gone past worry and into deep fear. "Do you not know where we are?" Or, the one where Jimmy gets amnesia. Futurefic.

After some disturbing news Sybil and Thomas find comfort in each other. Takes place during S2E2. For Mind the Gap Weekend. One-shot drabble.

AU. It's Easter 1924 and the entire family is at Downton Abbey for the annual Easter Celebration. Pure fluff.

I haven't seen season four of Downton Abbey so this is just my take on the famous 'Beach Scene'

Mr. Carson injures himself and Mrs. Hughes takes care of him. Pure fluff.

There were moments in life when nothing else mattered but the love of another person. It was easy to go through a day, to know love was there, to say the words, but there were times when the feeling was so overwhelming, to be so utterly and completely connected to someone through love that time had no power, and we are made infinite.-Sybil surprise Tom with a special gift.

Robert faces the very real possibility that his wife could succumb to Spanish Flu. Prompt given by adama-roslinlove. This story will be at least two chapters.

A little game of who is who, not exactly rocket science... Starring dr Clarkson and several ladies.

More of the Shocking the Servants series, this time it's the maids and valets. Thanks to my lovely beta settees-under-siege, you are amazing and very helpful.

Downton Abbey is falling apart, but the people inside still have stories. When two people come across the Abbey in a storm, the people inside- servants and family alike- have stories and memories they'd like to share. Everyone appears in this story, but most of the focus is on Mr. Carson/ Mrs. Hughes, Mrs. Crawley/ Dr. Clarkson, and Matthew/ Mary.

An AU one-shot about John and his little girl.

A few days after Sybil's death, Isobel notices some changes in Violet's behaviour. [Slightly venturing into "M" territory. This is your only warning :D]

His head told him that it wasn't worth the risk. But his heart… well. His heart had always been tethered to Elsie Hughes in ways that weren't exactly proper. Loose sequel to 'Stitching it Up'.

My response to the chelsie-anon prompt on tumblr. Elsie learns there's one in the house she needs to take care of more than all of the 'chicks' she's just sent home.

What is the nature of bravery, or of cowardice? Is it braver to die for what you believe in than to refuse to die for what you do not believe in? Isn't the instinct for survival the strongest instinct we possess? Four men may have more than four answers.

World War II era AU. Tom Branson is an RAF pilot stationed in Duxford, near Cambridge. On a night out, he meets barmaid Sybil Crawley, who is training to be a nurse. Can their newfound connection survive the uncertainty and tragedy of war? Written for the Rock the WW2 AU on tumblr.

Adults only. John and Anna enjoy married life in the privacy of their cottage. In other words, cottage smut plain and simple!

Set after season 4. What changes downstairs and how developes the Carson/Hughes relationship after the beach scene?
