Based on a Tumblr prompt: First Encounter of Charles and Elsie. Derived from a drabble, strongly inspired by F tM's "No Light, No Light". Oneshot.

His lips were so close. Her face was right there. They were ... this close ... This was written in response to a series of comments made on Tumblr about an "almost" Charles/Elsie kiss.

Engaged!M/M fluff, for no reason beyond that I thought of it and wanted to write it. One-shot. Mary decides they will have a picnic, only they don't quite get that far under the dappled shade of the tree.

It is the 29th February 1916 and Mary seizes the moment to make amends in an unconventional way. Totally pointless leap year AU ficlet.

Post 1x05. The night of the Flower Show, with her feelings out in the open, Anna confronts Bates and attempts to better understand why he won't acknowledge his feelings.

Started as a one-shot, but now this became a story to fill in the gaping holes and missing dialogue in the storyline of Sybil/Branson in DA2. Begins ep1 & ends when the holes are plugged. I don't own these characters, but am just inspired by them. Enjoy!

Lady Mary Crawley does not only brave the storm. She becomes the storm, when she decides to fight for her happiness.

Matthew thinks of Mary when he needs her most. Ficlet set during the first battle of the Somme.

The mature sequel to my 'Busted' fic. What goes on when the door is closed.

Downton is in need of a new chauffeur and Edith and Branson decide to teach Cora, Sybil and Matthew how to drive. But as the journey goes on, things get complicated. Robert and Mary are with them every step of the way, could they become the next chauffeur

Events taking place in the summer of 1919 changes things for Mary, and brings Matthew back into her life. Set right after Lavinia Swire's death and explores Matthew's and Mary's lives from there on. AU.

A joyous day for Downton Abbey, indeed. Until Lady Edith spoils it.

What if Lavinia had car problems in 2x01, and she and Matthew took the train from London to Downton instead - meeting Mary on the way? Angst one-shot, in response to a tumblr prompt. AU 2x01.

Lady Mary asks Carson to read a book to her but the title and the name of the heroine are a bit too distracting...

Lady Mary Crawley has acquired some very naughty reading materials, most certainly not suitable for a lady. Matthew walks in on her reading and one thing leads to another as the two enjoy a lovers' encounter.

John and Anna are forced to decide how high a price they're willing to pay.

"She writes him few letters that year. They are polite, proper, correct." Mary cannot bring herself to write him the truth. That is, until the day of the Servant's Ball, when she leaves him a letter to find on his return home. Canon compliant imaginings.

This is a canon one shot looking at how both Sybil and Tom each came into possession of a treasured photograph.

What transpired between episode 2.07 and 2.08... First fanfic, so please excuse any fanfic faux pas! Rated M for future chapters

"Have I made you happy?" "Yes. That is, since you fell in love with me, which if I remember correctly was about a year after we married." "Not a year. Not as long as that." The story of how Robert and Cora fell in love.

Richard has realised what a terrible mistake he's made in letting Isobel go to France, and wants to do something to make it at least a little bit better.

The War leaves nothing unaltered in Downton. A series of drabbles and short one-offs, set during Series 2. All characters, all pairings. "The Kind Ghosts" - Downton's lost footman is not so lost, to the dismay of a new scullery maid.

Cora overhears Jane and Robert as she lies in bed ill.

A boring party. A couple of newly-weds. An empty library. Smut ensues. A reworking of *that* scene from Atonement. Very M.

Carson/Hughes story. I think the title says it all: everyone has secrets.
