You may not know it, but I believe the committee feel obliged to give you the cup for the best bloom as a kind of local tradition.

Little Things They Do To Show They Love You (Downton Abbey Preference)

Cora Crawley: Cora shows her love through thoughtful attention to detail. She remembers the small things, like your favorite tea or the way you prefer your blankets tucked. Cora’s affection comes through in quiet, consistent support and gentle words of encouragement.

Edith Crawley: Edith shows love by sharing her passions and interests with you and letting you share yours with her. Whether it’s discussing her latest article or inviting you to visit her publishing office. She values quality time spent talking and learning about what matters to you as well.

Elsie Hughes: Mrs. Hughes expresses love through acts of service. She’ll prepare a favorite meal, make sure you’re well taken care of, and handle anything you might need without you having to ask. Her love is practical but deeply heartfelt.

Isobel Crawley: Isobel shows love through her compassion and willingness to fight for you. She’s not afraid to stand up for what’s right, especially when it involves the people she cares about. She’ll help you navigate tough decisions and always lend a listening ear.

Joseph Molesley: Molesley shows love through small, earnest acts of kindness. Whether it’s helping you with a task, offering words of wisdom, or simply being there, his support is constant and understated, but it means the world to those he loves.

Mary Crawley: Mary shows love in subtle yet powerful ways. She might be reserved, but she expresses her affection by being fiercely protective of you, offering practical help should you require it, and sharing moments of vulnerability when she feels she can trust you.

Thomas Barrow: Thomas, though guarded, expresses love through quiet loyalty and acts of service. He might not say it outright, but he’ll go out of his way to help when you need it most, even if it’s behind the scenes. His love comes through in his dedication.

Violet Crawley: The Dowager Countess shows love in her unique way, through sharp wit and cutting remarks that secretly have your best interest at heart. She may not coddle, but her advice is often meant to guide and protect those she cares about, even if it can be tough love.

Downton Abbey Calendar 2024

[laolafi]

Rosamund Painswick has a companion. An equally wealthy and spectacular socialite who lives right on the other side of Belgrave Square. Widowed at a young age, even younger than Rosamund, but around the same time Marmaduke Painswick died. Let's call her Alice.

They host the most spectacular soirées in their respective Belgravia homes. They travel the continent together, extensively. They collect art and become patrons for museums and collections that would later rise to global importance. That kind of thing. They raise Alice's children together – the Crawley girls wonder why they call her "Auntie Rummy". They're madly, deeply in love and it shows.

Over time, the family grows extremely fond of Alice. Robert, who had the hardest time accepting the situation and spent a lot of time indignantly huffing and puffing about it, most of all. It's just a basic fact, Aunt Rosamund comes with her companion or not at all.

When Maud Bagshaw appears and announces that she intends to make her young maid Lucy her companion, Robert jumps to all the wrong conclusions and is appropriately scandalised.

I salute the brave soldiers who toil on the fanfiction front lines to claim another inch of Downton Abbey for the gays

One of my favourite Downton Abbey quote has always been

"To quote my wife's grandmother: you've been reading those socialist newspapers again." - Tom Branson

But I did not realise?!?!? She actually SAID that?!?! To ISOBEL?!?!

I thought she said it off-screen to Tom but NO. She actually did say it this makes it so much better m

Cora and Violet working together to keep Isobel at bay is serious comedy gold

How They Cuddle (Downton Abbey Preference)

Cora Crawley: Cora adores cuddles and loves to be close. She loves your warmth and will snuggle in so close you’re not quite sure where you end and she begins.

Edith Crawley: Edith is more of a distant cuddler. She doesn’t need to be really close, but likes to be touching you in some way, whether that’s holding your hand as you sleep, or having her arm over you.

Elsie Hughes: Elsie doesn’t frequently go all in for cuddles, but she does love those quiet moments when she can sit close to you and rest her head on your shoulder. And she certainly doesn’t mind if you put your arm around her.

Isobel Crawley: Isobel loves a good cuddle. It’s her favorite way to start a morning. You talk and giggle with your arms around each other and it always starts your days off right.

Joseph Molesley: He’s a bit shy about cuddling with you, but by gosh does he crave it. There’s something about having you in his arms, or merely the thought of it, that can just keep him smiling all day.

Mary Crawley: Mary likes to think she’s above cuddling, and she doesn’t love it all the time, but she must admit sometimes it just hits the spot. On the days she is up for it, expect her to cling to you for as long as she can.

Thomas Barrow: Thomas isn’t much of a cuddler, but he does enjoy a good, long hug every once in a while. It’s both comforting and somehow healing to him to just hold you like that for a while.

Violet Crawley: Violet pretends not to enjoy a good cuddle, but she does. You have to ease her into it, but eventually she’ll come to rely on a good cuddle every night before bed.

S5 was perfect groundwork for Violet to confess her undying lesbian love for Isobel, and yet

Poor or Perfect - Chapter 1 - Lady_Lioness - Downton Abbey [Archive of Our Own]

Summary:

Poor Edith, one of the more unfortunate characters in the entirety of Downton Abbey’s nobility. No one favored the ugly, jealous sister who almost always remained abandoned and alone. She certainly hadn’t thought much of her when watching the show.

But now she’s here, stuck in the body of the middle Crawley sister. No friends, no gifts, no beauty, but can she somehow manage to change the story? Protect those she loves and become more than Poor Edith? Just maybe, she can become the Perfect Edith for Downton Abbey.

Acabo de volver a ver Downtown Abbey y vuelvo a coincidir sobre mi personaje favorito, Lady Edith Crawley y vaya sorpresa que me llevo al encontrar esta historia, lo único malo es que mata la espera necesito más capítulos, este fic es hermoso 💗
