A collection of Downton Abbey drabbles. I’ll post whenever an idea pops into my head. We’ll see if any of these lead to longer stories!

Poor Edith was the ugly, jealous middle daughter. No one’s favorite, always alone, she was a character on the show she never thought much about. Until she woke up in her body. Trapped in this world, can she change the story and protect those she loves? Perhaps she can become more than Poor Edith, and be the Perfect Edith for Downton. This story is also posted on AO3. (Self-Insert)

For her first London Season, Sybil has another ambition to prove - that women and men can actually be friends. In a budding Yorkshire musician, she finds the complicated answer.

- a random collection of Cobert drabbles and one-shots -

Unfortunately, Mr. Carson and Mrs. Hughes' wedding does not take place as planned due to an argument the evening before. Set at the beginning of Season 6, after Mrs. Patmore has clarified Mr. Carson's intentions and Mrs. Hughes declared that "he can have her." Attention: M rated!

e via con la seconda stagione

Both Tom and Sybil wished for the dinner to be perfect for the other. Both were sorely disappointed, but in the end, their plans failing led to a moment neither would forget.

When widower and father Charles Carson comes to Downton Abbey, he develops a relationship with the family he serves. Over time, he is quite taken with a certain housekeeper. Also, the young Earl and his American wife are beginning to expand their family. This is an 1880s AU set a few years earlier than the canon backstory with Chelsie and Cobert at the forefront.

March 1912 - a baby is abandoned at the doors of Downton Abbey. Servant Thomas Barrow agrees to claim paternity for the foundling. The story mainly revolves around Thomas and his daughter, but the other characters also play a role in every chapter. The characters don't belong to me, only the OC does.

Cora had been feeling unwell for weeks leading up to their trip to France. Back home, she had Doctor Clarkson run some tests and the results are not at all what she had hoped. How will she cope with this new reality, and will she be able to help Robert and their daughters to come to terms with it? This is a *slightly* altered ending to A New Era

We meet Cora when she is 31. She has moved to London, to get her writing career started. One day she hears beautiful piano music coming true her window which inspires her to write. Will she ever meet the one who plays that piano? Robert is 34 and works for his father's company, managing estates. He secretly plays the piano.

The real heir of Grantham is revealed. How will the Abbey cope?

For full summary, see beginning of Prologue (too long to post). January 1933, and Thomas, Richard and co are faced with several different scenarios centred around family issues, which can be complicated at times. In order to solve their problems, friends must come together.

This story will be a development of Charles and Elsie wedding day. We only saw the glimpse of it in the series, so I will delve a little deeper. One chapter will be devoted to Charles and second one to Elsie.

"These Cherished Chapters" is a fic where each chapter is a standalone glimpse into Charles and Elsie's life - whether it be domestic fluff, romance, smut, or anything else in between. Or, in other words, a place for me to display every small bit of Chelsie goodness I write that has nowhere else to go. Rated-M because some chapters do venture into the territory of adult content.

March 1919: In the aftermath of the devastation wreaked by a war and an epidemic, Matthew Crawley arrives at Downton to reluctantly take up his position as heir. Still mourning his fiancée and haunted by the war, he is drawn to the beautiful but unapproachable young widow of the previous heir. Sometimes love can grow from tragedy, and maybe two lost souls can help each other heal.

With their wedding still some months away, Elsie and Charles stumble their way through their engagement with mere cups of tea to sustain them whilst they work out exactly how this is ever going to work. An in-canon tale that stretches the time frame seen in the show but only for the purposes of delving into more Chelsie goodness.

Oui, la plus belle manière d'écouler ses vieux jours, c'est aux côtés de celle que l'on aime.

Robert 25, Cora 22. Both work for their fathers and have to work together. They cannot stand each other, and see their promised future evaporate in front of their eyes. Modern AU story.

A series of Cobert drabbles/one-shots using the Victorian practice of floriography as inspiration. (all rated M-MA - if you do not like smut or the insinuation of such, this is not for you lol)

A sequel to 'A Scandalous Affair'. Mary and Tom are now married and living in Dublin

Shadows of Remembrance delves into themes of resilience, sacrifice, and the quest for inner peace amid turbulent times. Can Thomas find solace in the glittering facade of Hollywood, or will his unquiet past drive him toward a reckoning amidst the chaos of war once more?

How does she still believe when the world has hurt her? Mary doesn't understand her wife's continued faith after everything they've been through. Modern AU where Mary and Anna navigate their faith in God as queer people and go on a journey to become parents.
