With the new season upon us, and fandom all extra-enthusiastic, I figured now would be a great time for this. Because there can never be enough Downton Abbey fic, and there certainly isn't enough now!

Boop dee doo.

Branson held the door open for her as she descended, deferential in the transitional space between daughter of an earl and low-ranking nurse.

He caught her eyes, and tried to hold them but looked away, and Sibyl wished again that he had not said those things. The English know not to say those things. Women know not to say them. And there was Branson, putting voice to his heart in a way that shocked her and ruined it all.

“Branson,” she said, thinking: Branson, I am not ready for my life to begin, not like that, not while I am still afraid to walk into the cottage hospital. “I am sorry,” she said instead. “For what I said to you.”

You and your writing are gifts from the Gods, honestly! ;D

I think I'm just killed dead. I fairly certain you killed me dead.

*SPLUTTER*

I was so not expecting this - utterly brilliant. I'll never be able to watch Thomas' scenes again without imagining this :)

I kind of want to remix every Bad Downton Decision with this same plot but there are approx. 600 bad decisions per capita per episode.

PLEASE PLEASE DO. Seriously, I will love you forever if you do. If only because the line "Now look, you want a drink of the Irish Spring?” had me laughing for ages, and for no apparent reason other than it's a fantastic turn of phrase :)
