Art: Fidelity and Sport [Downton Abbey]

[motetus]

How much packing have I been doing in the last few days? None! I have been busy with something far more important: TV. Finished Downton Abbey (♥♥♥), about to get started on the rest of Sherlock, then Walking Dead, then um... I'm sure I'll find something else by then. WIFE CAN DO THE PACKING. Also, the estate agents are being an arse with our forms and have made it impossible to move before next week. Next week if we're lucky. Hrmph.

Anyway, all the way through Season 1 of Downton Abbey I was torn between shipping Lady Sybil/Gwen and Lady Sybil/Branson (it took me a while to figure out why Branson made my heart go ridiculously mushy despite his rather boring storyline: a chauffeur's uniform isn't the only uniform he looks adorable in), but then there was that hugging scene with all three of them in the final episode of the first season, and HELLO THERE NEW OT3. :D Reason why season 2 wasn't so great: no Gwen. :( Why anyone thought Matthew's penis difficulties were more interesting than more Gwen being awesome, I don't know. I went searching for fic and I found there was a grand total of 2 Gwen/Sybil/Branson fics on AO3 which made me very sad, so I had to cheer myself up with some fluffy fanart of the three.

This is basically an exercise in entirely shameless self-indulgence, so impertinent questions such as why Branson is wearing his heavy coat indoors, why Sybil's hair is up in a formal style while her dress is informal, why aren't they doing their reading in the library etc etc, are answered by BECAUSE LOOKING PRETTY IS MORE IMPORTANT THEN MAKING SENSE, OKAY?




(thank you to demon_rum for the title! It is probably the most interesting title any of my art has ever had, because it was not thought up by me)




Now someone please take away my fingers before I draw the wild f/f adventures of the Dowager Countess' youth. TAKE THEM AWAY FROM ME.

I KNOW YOU DO and some of it, maybe possibly, is for me and I am a selfish tart as you know well, SO I SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE IT.

I have not yet done my own washing up. So I would be happy to do yours. Maybe I will do that when I visit?

YES YOU ARE A SELFISH TART.

Now I am going to go away and finish my poor Inception rBB. And you are not to pester me until it is done. If you can do that, you get a hospital illustration and you can shout at me for drawing IV drips all wrong.

I promise not to bother you. *pinky swear*

ARG THIS IS HARD ALREADY.

All I know about IV drips is that if you do them wrong, they go all over the floor. Which is entertaining, but not therapeutic.
