On the off chance anyone's wondering...
I gave up checking my dash for Lent. Because, you know, I spent hours compulsively refreshing it in a really not very healthy way, when I should be considering my future. Feel free to send messages, I still check my inbox, but I’ll be off the radar for awhile. Peace out until Easter, my friends!

– Julian Fellowes Overcomes His Scruples and Looks Back at Season 2 of ‘Downton Abbey’ - NYTimes.com (via goneforsoldiers) I’m glad he said that about Matthew having an easier, but more boring time married to Lavinia. Because that’s how I saw their relationship. If he had met Lavinia first or had...

Guys guys guys
Imagining the inevitable GIF sets of Lady Rosamund saying, “Can you really see yourself wasting your life as the wife of a country solicitor?” (paraphrased because lazy) from 1x07 with Mary being BLISSFULLY HAPPY as the wife of a country solicitor in S3.  Weeping.

I feel like Mary/Matthew and Sybil/Branson would...
I hope this dynamic is potentially explored in series 3. I could definitely see Matthew being the peacekeeper in this situation, Mary and Branson are never going to like each other very much and I’m totally cool with that. Things are not going to be sunshine and daisies, and it wouldn’t be DA without totally awkward/stilted dinner conversations. It also wouldn’t be family...

My psyche

onanyterms: remember when we realized there were tiny twirlers in the last clip of the CS promo? MASS HYSTERIA. BELIEVERS vs SKEPTICS. I was a skeptic. I wonder how many people actually missed that detail. I BELIEVED. Half because I was certain that M/M had to get together because it’s Christmas/we were told the will-they, won’t-they would be answered by the end of S2/they’re...
