Summary
A series of Edith/Anthony (and one Sybil/Tom) ficbits, going AU from about 15 minutes before the end of episode 3.03, in which I write a lovely little happily-ever-after for everybody (while borrowing some of the less dire canon drama), the end. See individual chapters for notes / warnings / etc.
(If you're looking for something edgy or possessed of much in the way of a plot, keep looking.) -

I'm not as sad as I should be. That's what makes me sad. The Titanic sinks, Patrick dies, and rather than wait at home to meet the new heir of Downton, Mary tries her luck in London, where she meets Sir Richard Carlisle instead. [Alternate S1]
