In the heat of the moment, in the silence between worlds, the human instinct is, invariably, to draw back, retreat. Withhold words and hide truth, denying the opportunity for connection because man is taught that vulnerability is dangerous and destructive. To protect, one deflects, projects, rejects, accuses. But she is different. And he is different. Where most stop, they begin.

It's baby time at the von Trapp Villa. One-shot!

Vermont, 1940 - The Captain and Maria adjust to life in America and try to cope with a rebellious Friedrich. How far will the Captain go to help his son?

A Parallel Story to 'A Sister's Love'. Louisa Von Trapp learns the hard way about love, loss and life as World War II erupts all around her. Goes from 1938-1945.

What happens when two stubborn and headstrong souls collide who enjoy provoking each other? The result is a funny story with heated situations, so if you are offended, do not continue :-) Story is finished and will be published every couple days.

Maria knew this was the life she was born to live- to be the Captain's wife and the mother of his children. Georg knew this too, with absolute clarity. That is, until he didn't. AU set two years after the movie, canon compliant until Something Good and then takes on a life of its own from there. My first fanfic :) Maria/Georg

I’m still working on the story, but I want to include scenes with the children and their father, to explore their bond. Starts before the movie, but I want to include scenes where the Captain and his children rebond.

The Captain comforts a broke hearted Liesl. One Shot. Complete!

Maria und Georg von Trapp sind auf einer Reise, gemeinsam mit ihren Kindern, während in Europa der Zweite Weltkrieg tobt. Werden sie in Amerika ihr Glück finden oder wird alles nur noch schlimmer werden ? Zu allem Überdruss sind die größeren Kinder auch noch in der Pubertät. Da braucht man starke Nerven.

"Do you know when I first started loving you?" How could she? It was a ridiculous question. He hadn't realised himself. It had taken him by surprise, impacted him like little else. Looking back, even now, it was impossible to understand. Her appearance had been one of those moments. Their moment. A Black Swan moment.

Maria and Georg are forced to anticipate their honeymoon return after the last of Max's concerning letters. Coming back to the Salzburg that gifted eachother the love of a lifetime, they can't suspect life will never be the same again ...

Life wasn’t exactly what they expected it to be after they fell in love. It seemed falling in love was the easy part, after all.

The eventual happy ending

The Baroness reflects

The Baroness doesn't leave Salzburg empty hearted. Femslash

A story about love inspired by open doors in the movie. "To love is to battle, to open doors. The world changes if two can look at each other and see" - Octavio Paz

"My dear there is no manual of engagement, and there is certainly not one for marriage. You will find in time however that you and the captain will create your own and believe me, if you were to write it down, you would want to re-read it forever."

When Maria receives a devastating diagnosis on the back of several miscarriages her world comes crashing down. She feels her life no longer has meaning until, one day, she encounters a little stranger who strengthens both her spirit and her hope. She learns perhaps it is possible for someone to have all they ever wanted. It's just that sometimes they have to take the long way.

A mischievous young governess arrives at the von Trapp household determined to teach the over-bearing Captain a little humility. AU.

When Georg's campervan breaks down in the remote Icelandic highlands, a fellow traveler stops to help. Of course, to his mind, it is all very incredibly unnecessary. (A modern AU, one-shot.)

One small change can alter the course of history. Elsa misses the Laendler and so Maria doesn't realise her feelings for the Captain.

"And why do you stare at me that way?" "I can't help but think, sir—" "Yes?" "We've met before." The Captain was no stranger, Maria discovered some time after being sent to the von Trapp household as a teacher and governess for the summer. No, she and the Captain were not strangers at all. (AU)

Perhaps it would be easier to tell you, short and simple. But as simple as that sounds, it's not simple at all. There is so much I want to say to you, and words are never enough. Paper is never enough. Ink is never enough to tell you all I want to say. But I've carefully chosen my words. I could only hope that you believe me. / A collection of random 200-word drabbles!

What true TSOM fan hasn't stopped to imagine what happens in between Maria's return from the Abbey and Georg's appearance on the balcony? Here's my version of events, inspired by my friends in the Proboards fanfiction forum.

a drabble I wrote about a certain part of Maria's childhood. contains mild violence and dead characters.
