Sequel to 'Addiction'. Mary Crawley is about to make a life changing decision. She has two very different paths to go down. Mary has to decide if she is willing to give up Downton. If she is, the only question that remains: can she handle possibly being an outcast by society?

Modern university AU. Mary is an Oxbridge reject with a past, Anna and John are in the friendship zone, Sybil has a secret life out of school, Matthew and Lavinia are stuck in a rut, and Downton is owned by the National Trust. Drama and hijinks naturally ensue. Chapter 25: Over the summer holidays, Matthew and Mary navigate their new relationship.

How I think the racing car accident and following telephone call between Mary and Henry Talbot should've gone. 100% Tom and Mary.

Mary Crawley is left needing something after the Pamuk incident, but she's not sure what. Then there's the chauffeur Branson, and he might be the answer to her problems. Season 1 AU.(rating subject to change)

After Sybil's and Matthew's deaths, Mary and Tom struggle to move on. Tom becomes her closet friend and her constant, though somewhere along the way, and Mary can never quite pinpoint when it happens, she accidentally falls in love with him too. (Oneshot, season 5 spoilers. Mary/Tom.)

A oneshot set after the S5 Christmas Special. It's the day Tom is leaving for Boston but somehow he doesn't want to go ...

Every morning, Mary and Tom take a walk. Largely canon-compliant through to the 2013 Christmas Special. Disclaimer: Downton Abbey belongs to ITV and Julian Fellows, I just wrote this for fun with no copyright infringement intended.
