THE COMPLETE SCRIPTS: SEASON ONE

She sounds strict but of course she isn’t. He looks at her.
 
WILLIAM: You’re a kind woman, Mrs. Hughes.
MRS. HUGHES: So you’d miss me, when I’m gone? 

Is she joking? It’s hard to say. 

WILLIAM: I don’t know how this house would run without you. I don’t, truly.
MRS. HUGHES: Stop flannelling and get on. Before I betray you to Mr. Carson.

He goes, but his words have helped her with a decision. 

Don’t mess with Elsie Hughes

Favourite Elsie Hughes / William Mason moment.

robin-sloan:

Hello, lovelies. I’m jonesing for new fic with young Elsie and Charles, they tend to be my favorites. I guess I’m a sucker for beginnings. Especially fics that involve their first meeting? I’ve read May Day, St. George’s Day, and I want to say one other, but I’m looking for suggestions! 

Also, I KNOW that someone has to have written something exploring how much Anna is like Elsie and how much she adores her. Suggestions?

Lastly in my list of shameless begging, does anyone know of any good work about the relationship between Mary and Elsie? We don’t get to see it much but she’s know her for most of her life…I’d love suggestions for that as well! I loved Something Not Readily Acknowledged, so something like that! :]]

Thank you, thank you lovely people!

I wrote a story about Mrs. Hughes and Mary here.   Also, elsie-hughes has great meta about Mrs. Hughes and Mary if you search
