This was written before 4x06 and posted on tumblr then. AU now, obviously. It's what I thought should happen with the Edith situation but didn't believe really would (and it didn't). Title from "Let it be."
Imagine Downton Abbey transposed in the years before the French Revolution, and blended with Ikeda's Rose of Versailles... and Robert, desperate for a son, making a drastic decision when his yougest daughter is born! Cross-over (well, sort of...)
[Set sometime after S4CS] Mrs. Hughes had been there for Anna during the darkest period of her life, and now the brightest.

Thunderstorms are scary and Elsie Hughes does not like them AT ALL. But one night this changes.
I haven't seen season four of Downton Abbey so this is just my take on the famous 'Beach Scene'
A heart to heart talk between Sybil and Matthew in July 1914. They talk about the coming new baby, Matthew's proposal and future, Mary, and Sybil's view on love, life and marriage.
Modern AU one-shot. Mostly fluff. Tom has been eyeing up Sybil for a while. When they are both in the audience at the basketball game, he finally gets up the guts to ask her out.
Acts of kindness never go unrewarded, especially to those who show kindness the most of all.
One shot. After Mr Molesley takes Miss Baxter out for an evening, he realises how much she really means to him. 'He grins as she laughs happily, her eyes sparkling with mirth like the stars above'.
A little flashback into the adolescent lives of Rosamund Painswick, Elsie Hughes, Sarah O'Brien, Cora Crawley, and Vera Bates. Rated T for some mildly disturbing stuff. Inevitably, there are lots of OCs in here :-)
Alfred's never ceased to surprise Thomas, until one day... he did.
What might happen in Series Five? If one were to leave one's fiance sitting alone in the moonlight... (Rated T for OTP kissing)
What would have happened if Anna had been sicker than anyone realized? When Bates brings the tray, and she doesn't answer he is worried. He breaks all the rules to make sure she is taken care of that night. AU, set in series 1 ep 4.
Were Charles sends George a present after the bazaar. Set shortly after that. Team Blake for sure!
Rock the AU! Sybil and Tom are spies. When they are sent on a pathetic mission that they could do with their eyes closed, they end up enjoying it more than anticipated.
Mrs Hughes is ill and gets an unexpected visitor.
Violet and Patrick as five-year-old's, when they first decide to get married. It's just silly, really. No harsh words, please. I just wanted to write some very pre-Downton fic featuring Violet as a child.
With threats, bribes and calling in favors, yes, I stopped it. Remember when Mary alluded to Richard's harsh world, and compared journalists to detectives? Here's the world she thought she knew, or in another words, when Mary decides to take a break from her suitors' attentions on Valentine's Day, she finally meets the people who helped to hush the Crawleys' scandals. PUTP 'verse
Carson planned a wonderful day at the beach for his staff. Now, it's up to Elsie to plan a little surprise for Carson.

Modern AU. Tom Branson is a hard working humanitarian and journalist who enjoys his life, but his whole world changes when he meets Sybil Crawley, a dedicated doctor. The two embark on a journey of friendship changing each other's lives and the world.
After the bazaar, two of Mary's desire of suitors drive off together. But what on earth do they talk about?
While on leave and visiting friends, Sargent George Crawley gets drawn into a game with little Ruthie Elms and her odd friend from London.
"We're Tom and Sybil... like Torvill and Dean, Sonny and Cher or Fred and Ginger. All great double acts... just like us." Tom and Sybil grew up together and there has always been something between them. Now in their 20s, they have come close a few times but things keep getting in the way and both try to pretend they are better off friends. Valentine's Fic Exchange for Ducky82.
Sir Richard Carlisle needs a new secretary and as it happens, Mrs. Vera Bates is looking to move up in the world. Who said anything about burned bridges?
My contribution for January Rock the AU - World War II. Sybil and Tom bump into each other in the chaos of an air raid and they get talking and realise that they might have some things in common.
Molesley can't find his razor, so he can't shave. What does Miss Baxter think about that?
