A Prompt from Kavan on tumblr: Matthew and George. George's first shooting party brings back memories of WWI for Matthew.

Another short drabble previously only published to tumblr, this is the story that spawned my Modern AU Mary x Matthew. And made me fall madly in love with them. I guess if you start at the end, you eventually find out how you got there. From prompt of "Modern Mary and Matthew arguing over who has to get up with George."

Cora is deathly afraid of spiders and Robert comes to her rescue. Pure Cobert fluff. Enjoy!

The London Housekeeper has disappeared and it's Lady Rose's first season. There's only one logical solution... Mrs. Hughes has to come to London immediately. Season 3 spoilers. Rated T for now, though knowing me as I do...it'll probably become an M in later chapters.

Richard POV Missing scene from Season 4 For UK viewers this would be missing scene from episode 3. For US viewers PBS mashed ep 1 and 2 together for episode 1 so this would be missing scene from episode 2

She was determined to figure out just what he was. OC/OC. Follows series
