For ar_drabbles challenge 81: New beginnings

( I am not dreaming Of a hope-victory-life. I am just dreaming Of a hope-survival-life.] )

A sequel, of sorts, to lha's hot and sweet Cora/Robert fic, Behind Closed Doors. My fics don't usually get away from me, but this one seemed to.

Writing M-rated C/H seems to be all the rage nowadays, doesn't it?

( And, best of all, I love thee as a friend )

For ar_drabbles challenge 80: Someone to Watch Over Me. Set during the NC arc.

( Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb )

For ar_drabbles challenge 79, photograph. In the sure and certain hope that in a few weeks both the holiday and the Downton Abbey seasons will be over and I can return to normal commenting.
Set during Six of One.

Just a bit of fluff for ar_drabbles challenge 77. Bonus points to those who ID the title and cut line.
( It'll feel so good, it'll feel so right, I want it bad after such a long time )

For lavenderteawit, who needs to stop having her life imitate fanfic. Just a little something, and not happy or smutty. Happy just isn't my forte, and you're younger than my kids, so I can't just write smut in your honor (so consider this a strong T). But at least there's no one getting physically hurt. I have to say that I'm truly astonished by the amount of ( Read more... )
