AU Chelsie follows them throughout 2018-19's Year of the Dog. Chapter titles feature dog idioms and otherwise wag the dog's tail while the story introduces Charles to Elsie thanks to their dogs and eventually where they belong: together. Headlined by Charles/Jim, Elsie/Phyllis mashups with a LONG list of DA characters in supporting roles, cameos. A sprinkling of M adds to the fun.

William Bates and Sybbie Carson-Bagshaw are progressing beyond their ABCs...to matchmaking! Auntie Beryl will lend the wee ones a hand down the road in getting their grandparents, Elsie and Charles, respectively, together. Present day Chelsie set in London.

It's early summer 1928 and Carson returns to the cricket pitch. Follows the hero and his heroine over a few short days. Mainly Chelsie with a small supporting cast from (still unmarried) Mrs. Patmore to Miss Caroline Talbot. A little angst, a few tears, a fair amount of curmudgeonly behavior, occasional teasing, IRL human experiences and LOTS of love.

After a year plus of speculation on where the DA film would take us with our dear friends, we have our answer! This Chelsie-only Fic picks up right where the film's end credits start to roll.

One shot Chelsie prompted by the DA film's preview of Lady Mary's unexpected visit to the Carson Cottage, Charles' response to her and what happens in the morning!

It's time once again for Downton Hospital's annual major fundraiser. No more Abbey tours, time for something new. Bless Lady Rose Aldridge for shaking things up yet again - and delivering this, mainly Chelsie, Fangirl treat.

When Jim Carter shaved his head IRL, November 2017, Tumblr was all abuzz (pardon the pun) with the news and @stokersisters even suggested a prompt to help explain why. This is my one-shot explanation. Set after Season 6. Pure Chelsie with a little Banna, baby Bates and other characters tossed in.

If all goes well, 8 chapters focused on the Chelsie honeymoon built upon past February prompts, 4 prompts/ chapter. Just like stepping into the water at Brighton, seeking fellow writers' encouragement for my first FanFic.
