Mr Carson comes home from the Season a day early. AU oneshot, Carson/Hughes.

Life sometimes doesn't always turn out the way we want it to. For Anna, she has a lifetime of regrets of how her life has turned out.

Just what happened at Sybil's ball to make things seem 'so settled' between Matthew and Mary? Filling the gaps between eps 6/7 - Final chapter now up.

The butler and housekeeper get side-tracked while serving at The Downton Ball. Hughes/Carson what else .

"I have never been in love," Sibyl said carefully, eyes down, glad that Althea's back was to her. "But I should imagine that, if I were, I would tell of the man, not of the trouble I was causing."

...run deep. Thomas goes too far and Bates gets to keep a promise, to Anna and everyone else's delight - until Anna realises that sometimes, words CAN mean more than action.

Changing circumstances at Crawley House provide an excuse for redecoration. In the meantime, Matthew develops a duckling obsession, Isobel fusses, and Mary watches paint dry. Sweeter and sicklier than eating all your Easter eggs at once.

Conversations that were left out of The Politics Of Love.

After the events of the Count in Ripon, this will be the first time Sybil has been allowed to go on a drive without a chaperone.

A sequel of sorts to "The Awakening." Might go M later on...and it just did...Chapter 11

The Earl is dead. Long live the Earl. Drabble on Molesley on his promotion to Lord Grantham's valet. Molesley/Anna and tangental Matthew/Mary because I don't seem able to write something without them.

September, 1914: Anna is unusually melancholy, Mr Bates is oddly comforting. Mrs Hughes speaks her mind. Mr Bates uses her words against her.

My mother always said that the sign of a true lady was that she kept her emotions at bay during trying times.

Mrs Hughes has a bad day. Carson/Hughes silliness. Serie 1 one-shot.

When Anna falls ill, Mrs. Hughes must manage a reduced staff, re-assign duties, and comfort a certain valet, whose stoic silence threatens to break under the threat of loss. Mrs. Hughes POV, Anna/Bates centric.

Five friendships that failed and one that is only just beginning. Mary-centric character study. Shippy if you squint.

Anna wonders just how much more she is expected to take, perhaps, out there a better man does wait for her. I don't own anything!

Nunca había pensado en William antes, no en serio al menos. William, el bueno de William, con su cara de niño y su eterna mirada de amabilidad. William/Daisy

Hay ciertas cosas que una señorita bien educada nunca debe decir, cosas que nunca debe sentir y, por supuesto, cosas que nunca debe hacer; pero a Sybil el deber, nunca se le ha dado demasiado bien.

In the margins of the text, a romance blossoms. Branson and Sybil's relationship from the Ripon incident through the Garden Party. Yes, it is very salacious.

Matthew tells Isobel of his decision to enlist following the outbreak of war. A short one-shot I had a sudden flash of inspiration for.

Sequel to 'A Quiet Man', Bates and Anna are married and this story begins on their Wedding Night.'M' rated with good reason.

Anna is awake and about to enjoy her day.

sorry for the lame title- that's my weakest point. not sure if this will be a one shot or if i'll add more chapters. i thought daisy and william should have a cute moment like that. if you review, you get a cookie!

"April is the cruelest month." War is inescapable. A Sybil/Branson drabble.
