Here is my take on how things might have happened differently had Cora and Robert's son lived. It will primarily focus on Cora and Robert, but things will be different for other characters too. There will be fluff, there will be angst, and there will be hurt and comfort all in due course. Rated M for later chapters. This is my first multi-chapter work so please comment and follow!

Bits and pieces from Aubade and Cantata that didn't fit into the main storyline. NOTE: some of this content will be M-rated, that is why the story is marked as such. Please see each chapter for specific warnings. This is also marked "complete" because each chapter within itself is a separate entry.

The simple things in life are far more significant than they seem. Inspired by the words of Gwen Harding (nee Dawson) in season six, when she returns to Downton with her husband.

What if Elsie Hughes and Charles Carson had been secretly married from the start? How much would change?

Just a few years prior, his wife had had the same worries, and now a conversation between Mrs. Patmore and Mrs. Carson about the "bed business" causes some embarrassment for our beloved Charlie. But luckily, it all turns out alright in the end...Right? Rated T just to be safe ;)

In November 1918, Patrick comes home to Downton. But is he the real Patrick Crawley? Or he is Patrick Gordon, the scheming fraud? Edith may not even care as long as he's returned to her, but Mary does. Love and loss and truth and lies collide, and the explosion could destroy Downton Abbey…or save it.

A one-shot story inspired by the Tumblr ship drabble challenge. Originally a short little drabble that turned out to be much more in the end! Story is set in the first few hours of 1926, just where they left us at the end of season 6. Mr. Carson is feeling down after the news of his retirement and is very much in need of a hug from his wife...

Pre-Series AU. Cora comes to England to solve a problem for the Dowager Countess of Grantham and her life changes forever. But as love blooms, secrets and danger threaten to tear Robert and Cora apart and destroy everything his mother has worked so hard to build.

"If she were selfless, Mary would have set him free. He deserved to live a life far from here, maybe in Ireland or America. But Mary was selfish. And she would keep him here as long as she possibly could." An AU starting in S4 where Mary grieves Matthew differently, Tom is still the chauffeur, and their friendship forms another way.

"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes" - Mark Twain. London 1941: Edith's daughter has fallen head over heels for Anthony's nephew. Or: Andith do the Second World War. (A short multi-chapter fic that began life as a one-shot and got rapidly out of control.)

A sonnet written from Mary's point of view, showing her softer side as she talks about her 'true love,' Matthew.

A sequel to "Alpine Interlude" which tells of the lives of the Bransons, the Crawleys, and the Schönborns during the Coronation Year of 1937, culminating with a visit by the Bransons and the Schönborns to Downton Abbey in December of that same year. But, nothing is quite what it seems. And while there are storm clouds abroad, there are also problems which are rather closer to home.
