[REMOVED FOR PUBLICATION ON KINDLE] Elizabeth Bennet enters the Netherfield Ball with a desperate plan in mind, willing to break or at least bend all the rules of propriety. How desperate? Let's find out.

We all love ye-olde compromise trope, even though we all suspect the whole scheme is full of logical holes and probably not really a thing. This is an ongoing series of short compromise stories of varying levels of silliness, not to be taken too seriously. Includes people caught in compromising positions, and other compromises like Charlotte marrying an idiot for security.

Complete. Elizabeth and Darcy reunite on a plane that crashes an hour after take-off a year and a half after their break up. The modern equivalent of Elizabeth and Darcy meeting after Hunsford. OOC, modern AU

Seven years have gone since Kent. Mr. Darcy, an embittered widower, trapped into marrying Anne, sees Elizabeth, also a widow and already engaged.

What if Elizabeth Bennet was not really a Bennet? Suspend a bit of reality and read along.

A crime committed fourteen years before resulted in her disappearance from the Fitzwilliam family and reappearance in the Bennet fami!y.

The day before they'd sent a media mogul packing and the Home Office had saved a man from being hanged. It was supposed to be a quiet, pleasant, sleepy, snowy day. Never had the Dowager been so right and for so many reasons. M/M engagement reveal fic, finished FINALLY.

Matthew wakes from a nightmare. Pure Fluff!

Ok, still the ghost of Downton will not leave me alone! Five years on from the Christmas Special and a 'sort of' sequel to my previous story 'If you were the only girl in the world' Enjoy. x

Picks up where the Special finished. Lots of happiness and smiling, and tea, and some downright silly antics. Chapter 12: The Epilogue. "For you are mine, at last."

Well, I've decided I can't wait nine whole months to see what happens, so here you have it: this is my plot line for Series 3 of Downton Abbey, including almost all the characters and pairings. Drama and romance ensured, a cup of strong tea recommended!

A hasty decision leads to consequences that will change their lives. AU S2 - how it should have been! EPILOGUE NOW UP: All good things...

Matthew and Mary are engaged and ready to embrace their future as the next Earl and Countess of Grantham. Just my imaginings of how that life might go.

Ok, I'll admit it... I cannot wait nine months for my Downton fix, so I decided to carry on without Mr Fellowes assistance. No doubt he will change it all anyway. But this is how I want things to go after the Christmas swoon fest. Enjoy.

If Isobel Crawley were certain of one thing, it was that they could no longer be left to their own devices. Knowing her, she won't keep her mouth shut about it for long, either. CHAPTER 7: Matthew and Mary tell eachother. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Spoilers for series 2! My take on the series 2 ep3 previews! some spoilers for some following series 2 eps also Mary/Matthew with probably more of a Mary focus. Despite Mary's wishes to remain silent on the matter, Matthew is made aware of her feeling

Based on the itv trailer for the Christmas Special. My take on the events of the ball. No copyright infringement etc. intended. No real spoilers. Chapter 2 most definitely M.

Matthew has no choice but to return to Downton for Christmas. He has forced himself to move on with his life, but will he be so stubborn when Mary and Richard's engagement moves full steam ahead? The angst! The bed-room eyes! The mistletoe!

After Series 2, horrible events must be discovered for Matthew and Mary to finally see sense. Not vey good at summaries, sorry!

AU sequel to Storm in a Tea-Cup. What if Matthew had followed Mary out of Crawley House as you all wish he had? In other words, a subtle exploration of the Slap Slap Kiss trope. For those of you who miss S01. Now with added heated rain kissing!

Mary has been frightened of storms since she was a child. A story that spirals from that really! One I wrote in one go in a couple of hours trying to avoid uni essays... :S

When a badly wounded Matthew returns from the front, the only person he wants is Mary... but he doesn't know that.

Matthew & Mary in AU Season 2
