"Not To Be Seen", a gratuitous M/M ficlet...
I kind of blame Pemonynen for this, and kind of myself.
It’s a little M/M ficlet that I’ve long imagined within the ATiL universe that’s entirely silly, and completely gratuitous, and just never quite got around to writing. But then the darling Emily gave me a prod to write it, and suggested that I use this picture as inspiration:
So, I did…
GRATUITOUS SMUT ALERT.

Random head-canon snippet for With All The Time In...
I know, I know, head-canon for my own fic? :P I mean it in the sense that it’s not a scene I’m going to write, but I just thought of it and I like it so I thought I’d share.
Under a cut just in case you haven’t read Chapter 13 yet - this follows directly from the end!

Anonymous asked: Hello! Matthew is my favourite character, and although I loved the Christmas Special I was a bit perplexed about how he acted in there. Someone said he was a jerk, especially when coming between Mary and Richard's bickering. Would like to tell me your thoughts?

Anonymous asked: Hey there, I have been reading your fanfiction for Downton for a while now (love it!!). Anywho, I also saw that people were questioning whether Lily James would be joining the cast of Downton for Series 3 and nobody seemed to believe it as such, I found this article about 'Fast Girls', which I'm still deciding whether to see. In it she confirms she has a part. She is also on twitter...

Oooh which cover did you get? There’s two that I’ve seen - there’s a more common one with the silhouette of a soldier/cross and another that I’ve only seen once on a hardback that I think was actually really intriguing.
It is this one

This is from the Daily Mail:
“Mr Edwards also has a part in the third series of Downton Abbey as wealthy Michael Gregson, who emerges as a possible suitor for Laura Carmichael’s Lady Edith.”
Hmm, maybe he’s courting her after she’s just tied the knot with Sir Anthony?
OH THE SCANDAL.

Maybe it’s because people don’t write a lot about Matthew/Lavinia and the few fans the ship have decided to be kind so you could write more? It’s definitely kind of weird. But it doesn’t mean a lot…

tumblindownton replied to your post: Just checked my legacy story stats on ff.net. Mildly amused/surprised to find that my second-most popular (going by review count) smut fic (and you know how many of those I’ve written) is not even Matthew/Mary, but that Matthew/Lavinia smut I wrote…
