AU. La decision de Mary de rechazar la propuesta de Sir Richard le deja sin recursos cuando el señor Bates decide vender su historia a la prensa. Pensando que su ruina le hará incasable, Mary convence a un herido Matthew de que se case con ella y asegure su futuro.

Shouldn't they be content? Mary and Matthew are happy, but their lives are missing something.

Matthew has left Mary home alone. This is set some time after Matthew and Mary have married. There's not really a plot I just wanted to base a story on my favourite piece of music. Please enjoy and review!

Three lives...full of secrets and heartbreak. Yet it all appears perfect to those unknowing. Is it true that wealth and status brings happiness? It's only a matter of time before it all comes out...

When Richard shows Mary one of the newly renovated en suite bathrooms at Haxby, they both gain a new appreciation for the life they will have together.

In 1915 Tom Branson decides to start writing articles for a small newspaper in York. As his career in journalism takes shape, he must makes decisions about his politics, life and friends. In Canon with Season Two. Please review.

Set pre Series 1. What would have happened if Mary and Matthew had known each other from childhood? How would their relationship develop? Ch. 9 up now.

Recently married and even more recently returned from their honeymoon, Mary and Matthew just can't seem to help themselves, regardless of where they are or who might be around... Slightly smutty-ish, strong T.

A little S1 'what if' scene: what if Elsie told Charles about her meeting Joe before she made up her mind?

Mary finds her daughter is not so different from her after all. Mildly fluffy.

Mary takes her teasing of Matthew one step too far, when he pays too much attention to the things she says. Married!M/M, entirely gratuitous smut, slight kink themes. Very M.

Petite song fic du coté de bates, cette fois. Se passe apres la saison 2 et l'épisode de Noel. Bates est en prison et se remémore le temps passé... La chanson que j'ai choisi est "Merci", de Grégoire.

Follow up to Nerves. 1920, Isobel and Richard go on their honeymoon to Paris.

Petite song fic sur Downton Abbey, coté Anna. Juste après le départ de Bates, entre l'épisode 1 et 2 de la saison 2.

"It was a gorgeous August day at Arundell Hall but Mary felt out of spirits." Spoilers for the recent S03 picnic photos. Brilliant sun, champagne, and the changing of lives.

A move to London and a new job give Elsie Hughes the break she has been waiting for. AU

On one of her prison visits, John has a request for Anna.

This is a one-shot for a prompt from the lj community 15 min fic. The prompt was "Drink," and I chose Rosamund, because we all know she's a closet alchy. This is about her struggle with alcohol.

"It was Matthew's hands, Mary decided not long into their marriage, that she loved the most." Entirely gratuitous and smuttish appreciation of Matthew Crawley's hands. Minor kink allusion.

Mid-series 1 scene. Isobel is irritated, and Dr. Clarkson wants to know why, and it leads to an unplanned confession. Maybe a one shot.

Branson thinks on what might have been if Mrs. Hughes hadn't cut short his conversation with Sybil at the garden party, when his thoughts are interrupted by an unexpected visitor.

Has Edith Crawley finally found one who returns her affections? Or will Sarah O'Brien snatch her newly found lady love from her grasp? Possibly AU, as an original character, housemaid Stella King, is introduced. Femmeslash. Possibly M in later chapters.

She watched as her husband laid eyes on his son, watched as his mouth opened slightly in awe, watched as his free hand moved to hover protectively over the tiny child and finally tentatively stroke a ruddy cheek with his finger. A family moment.

Two women under the same roof can't sleep, for two different reasons.

AU S2, Mary receives word that her husband is missing.
