Is anyone else getting “If Things Were Different” feels?

ACTUALLY, I also get feels from Peachdreamsandperseus’ newest story “Something There That Wasn’t There Before”

Aaaahhh, I love this; bravo to the creator! (it’s not me!)

Do you wanna know what I get feels for from this?
Master of the House!! YC, I’m thinking you need to get on the case again with that story! :D

daahyumm, oh yes!! … and who knows where Sybil’s got her feet… ;)

oh and thank you :)

Hmmmm…I may be persuaded ;o) *laughing* He’s like “wooooooooooah, steady, steady, down boy!”

Oh my gosh! Her foot! This just got 1,000 times better!

And then Carson comes over and he knocks his glass all over the table….and Carson tries to wipe him off….but he’s got a huge stiffy!!!!!

OR this takes place in Rep’s blind AU & Sybil wants Tom to know she still finds him sexy & adventurous so she’s getting him pointed in the right direction by feeling him up under the table!

But he doesn’t know for sure that its sybil since they have guests at dinner! That’s why he looks so surprised!

The Peerage System (Season 1)

Sir Richard Carlisle: Lady Painswick.
Lady Rosamund: Lady Rosamund.
Sir Richard Carlisle:I’m sorry. I’ll get these things sorted out before too long.

Had Sir Richard been familiar with Burke’s Peerage, he’d have known that Lady Rosamund had only retained her curtesy title upon marrying, to which she was entitled as the daughter of an Earl, but not as the wife of a “commoner”. 

By the same token, Sybil remained Lady Sybil, but would not become Lady Branson, nor would she ever be called Lady Sybil Branson. 

Cora, on the other hand, would never be called Lady Cora, her father having been a commoner. Her claim to a title is through her husband, who is an Earl, thus she is Lady Grantham, never Lady Cora, or Lady Crawley. The same applies to Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham.

Robert Crawley’s title while his father, the fourth Earl of Gratham, had been alive, was most likely Viscount Downton.

Books
Burke’s Great War Peerage (Lord & Lady Grantham would have been in this one!)
Burke’s Peerage (2012 - the current edition)

Websites
Burke’s Peerage
The Peerage (covers European Royal families as well)
Debrett’s (correct forms of address)

this so fanfastic!

Sybil Crawley had always wanted to do Doctors Without Borders; so when the chance comes along to spend the summer working in their Guatemalan location so leaps at the chance. She’s prepared for a boring summer involving mostly work and a few sights when she meets journalist Tom Branson, foreign correspondent for the Guardian. The two strike an easy friendship that quickly turns into more, but as the summer comes to an end will things for Tom and Sybil end here or will this summer fling become so much more?

It isn’t his ideal job but it’s an actual newspaper, even if it’s a conservative one. The goal was to make enough of a name for himself to jump to a paper that he wouldn’t cringe to be associate with. That is, until he meets the boss’s youngest daughter, Sybil Crawley. An aspiring photographer on a mission to prove her skill to both her father and herself, the two quickly finds themselves working together to make their dreams comes true. But as Tom and Sybil climb the corporate ladder will they come together or fall to pieces?

A question…

kindsokind:

This is going to seem really strange, but do any of the downstairs staff wear a cross or is religious in any way in canon?

Does anyone know? Please… I’m begging for an answer…

I would have put this in your askbox but I couldn’t find it.

In S2 Anna & Bates go to Church to pray together and in S3 when Branson has a daughter makes it clear he wants to raise her Catholic.

Hope that answers your question.
